Show Howtllg en the Wlckad Uteri, "niches," writes William Dsan Howell How-ell b In a whimsical mood, "riches in another Is having a good deal more than you have. Economy," he continual, contin-ual, with chuckling satire, "Is trimming trim-ming your own hats sometimes, and giving up all your clubs but the one you like best. As for charity, If you're poor, It's a plain case. You can't do this or that good action; you haven't got the money. Dut the rich never can say they can't afford to do It, so they have a bad conscience, and nothing Is so depraving as a bad conscience, and that," concludes Mr. Howells with satisfaction, sat-isfaction, "Is what makes tho rich so wicked."
