Briggs. — It's a»great thing to be rich. Look 

 at Bonder, for instance. He hires a young lady 

 to read all the stories in the magazines for him, 

 and when she gets a good one she lets him know. 

 The only trouble is that he has to change girls so 

 often. 



Griggs. — What becomes of the old ones ? 



Briggs. — They usually go insane.
