A Desert Between Paul and Clara
Paul had long promised to marry Clara. But at thirty-three he met and married Alice. Clara was driven mad.
Paul was taken to court. The judge ordered him to pay Clara $600 because of the broken promise. Paul had to borrow the money from a moneylender. He agreed to pay back $5 a month--for twenty years. His wages at the time were $16 a month.
Paul and Alice were poor but not unhappy. They had little enough food, certainly, even before the children began to-arrive. Each month Paul paid $5 to the moneylender.
He worked hard, never taking a holiday. In time, there were seven mouths to feed.
Illness was always with them. It grew serious when the oldest child was eight. The years of hunger weakened the family, because each month Paul paid $5. The details of the sickness were ugly, but the result was this: after twelve years of family life, Paul was alone in the world.
He lived alone, except for memories. Work was not now a god for him: it was a pain-killer. Each month he paid, and in time the twenty years ended. From that moment his wages were his own.
One day, it was a holiday-he went to the seaside. He sat down on a seat by the sea. A middle-aged woman came and sat down near him. They recognized each other at once.
The woman said, "The $600 has been in the bank since the day it was paid to me. It is now $6,000, and I have kept it for you. Will you let me share it with you?"
"No," said Paul, gently. "Each thousand is a lost life in a desert between us. It can never bring any happiness."

Very pleased, he went to tell his colleagues. They laughed and told him the meaning of the invitation. They had all been invited and each person who was invited had to bring with him a certain number of silver and gold coins. The number of coins varied according to the person's position in the service of the government. My friend's income was not high, so he did not have much to pay. Each person bowed before the ruler, his gold went onto one heap, and his silver went onto another heap. And in this way he paid his income tax for the year, This was a simple way of collecting income tax. The tax on property wes also collected area, if this man promised to pay the ruler a certain amount of money. Of coupe, the tax collector managed to collect more money than he paid to the ruler.
