If you should be dissatisfied with anything here to-night--I
will admit you all free in New Zealand--if you will come to
me there for the orders. Any respectable cannibal will tell
you where I live. This shows that I have a forgiving
spirit.

I really don't care for money. I only travel round to see
the world and to exhibit my clothes. These clothes I have
on were a great success in America.

How often do large fortunes ruin young men! I should like
to be ruined, but I can get on very well as I am.

I am not an Artist. I don't paint myself--though perhaps if
I were a middle-aged single lady I should--yet I have a
passion for pictures--I have had a great many pictures--
photographs taken of myself. Some of them are very pretty--
rather sweet to look at for a short time--and as I said
before, I like them. I've always loved pictures.

I could draw on wood at a very tender age. When a mere
child I once drew a small cart-load of raw turnips over a
wooden bridge.--the people of the village noticed me. I
drew their attention. They said I had a future before me.
Up to that time I had an idea it was behind me.

Time passed on. It always does, by the way. You may
possibly have noticed that Time passes on.--It is a kind of
way Time has.
