saving money. It is a passion like drinking, and a hobby like collecting of china. Does it usually

begin with a money-box ? Imagine a painter drawing the Miser's Progress in a number of scenes,

with the · first scene showing a benevolent grandfather holding out a harmless looking tin

_money-box to an infant scarcely able to walk. The gift should al~ays be accompanied by a box of

tools. As a young man the infant has grown into a miser. By the age of forty he has a substantial

bank account. But he persuades himself that he is so poor that he never goes to the theatre,

never invites a friend to dinner. By sixty he is a rich man and is convinced that he is all but a

pauper.

(a) they· are able to live a happy life

(c) they are able to enjoy the pleasures of life

(d) . they can entertain others

29. If a monex-box is given to a child, what should accompany it ?

(a) he has no liking for plays
