they never pretended to know
Poverty.
When q Man loses his Money
he goes to the Bedroom to drink
himself into q Trance. A Woman
lights the House from Cellar to
Carrot and sends out Invitations
for a Party.
On an income Of about $40 q
Week, Hiram's Wife and daughter
managed to keep UP Appearances
and occasionally have some Of
their Old Friends to dinner. HI
ram never understood how they,
managed it. When he looked at
his empty handbook and then
out at the Cold World he was for
giving. up and disappearing be-
meath the Waves. Hts wife
braced him and told him to think
Of Jessie. Hiram wept and said
there was no Hope for the Child
Of a PAuper. Notwithstanding
which, Hiram's Wife kept the
Family right along in the Swim
and married Jessie to q desirable
Catch. It is true that she
starved the Household for six
months in order to give the
Young Couple a daisy Send.off.
And all this time Hiram, the
astute Business Manager, was
standing around on one Foot like
a Town Sinpleton at q kissing
Bee.
Hiram had learned how to do
Things with Money, but he had
to turn to his Frivolous WHEY to
find out how to Manage it when
there was no Money.
In other words, Hiram discov-
cred that Cash had been the es-
sence Of his Existence while IT
had been the more accidental Ad-
junct to his Wife's Social Cam
paigns.
Without big Reserve he was
Smoke. She, minus her Check
Book, rose to greater heights Of
Diplomacy. In time she succeed
ed in resuscitating her groggy
Husband and putting him back
on the Track, but he had lost his
Ginger. He was oop-shouider-
ed and gray as a Bat.
She turned up at the Club
Meetings just as clipper az Of
Yore, only she came by Trolley
instead of Coupe.
