I have an income of which, even if I were boundlessly extravagant, I could not hope to spend half.

A speculation, the week before I left England, brought me a profit of a million marks.

But for the banking interests of my country and the feeling that I am the trustee for thousands of other people, it would weary me to look for investments.

And you--you came in to-night, looking worn out just because you had lost a handful or so of those wretched plaques.

There, you see it is coming now.
