"WelL" he replied, "my household erpenses alone amount to $25,000 a year, and I do not see how I possibly could live on less than that Then a reminiscent smile began to cross bis countenance, and. heaving a little sigh, be said: "But the happiest time of my life was when my wife and I and two children lived here on $2,600 a year. After all. happiness doesn't de pend on the amount of a man's income. . "I was quite intimate with William n. Vanderbilt when be was considered tbe richest man in the country. I met bim one day in Fifth avenue ana sam to bim that he ought to be the happiest man in the world. 'I am not.' the great millionaire replied. 'My health is shat snd all tbe incney I possess can not restore it I cannot even drive cne of my fine horses. It is painful for me to sit down.

Mathews, who was one of the best "patter speakers on tbe stage, began to gabble the lines with startling rapidity, and the other strained every nerve to follow him. When the teat was finished. Reed, whose notes., despite the terrific epeed at which he bad been writing, were of neat and eligible out line, merely inserted a vowel mark ox two and banded them to an assistant who was called into tbe room, and who transcribed the characters with but few mistakes, backward 1 "I should hardly have thought it possible, Mr. Reedl" was the astonished Charles Matnews comment London Telegraph. i w. th2re are thousands of wo men who nearly suffer death from irregular menses.
