Once upon a time there lived a man
who wanted only a few things that
everybody wants. Ht wanted plenty to
eat and drink leisure and the woman
he loved. But he found that to havo
time to himself to make it possible to
live pleasantly with his sweetheart and
give her all he wanted and to take care
of the children that they might have
to do all this he must have a great deal
of money. So he went to work and
built up a great business a very com-
plicated machinery. To this money
