Has he salted down some smackers every time he drew his wage, has he joined the pennypackers, as advised by seer and sage? Has his wife, with high ambition, stood hehind him all the time, doing sums in plain addition, so that she might save a dime? Then hell say, chance, “Beshrew me, T have Kope in my fob: I can wait till men pur; me with the offer of a job.
