As The Aloha rode gently to her buoy among the crafts in the
harbour, St. George longed to proclaim in the megaphone's monstrous
parody upon capital letters: "Cat-boats and house-boats and yawls,
look here. You're bound to observe that this is my steam yacht. I
own her-do you see? She belongs to me, St. George, who never before
owned so much as a piece of rope." Instead-mindful, perhaps, that
"a man should not communi-cate his own glorie"-he stepped sedately
down to the trim green skiff and was rowed ashore by a boy who, for
aught that either knew, might three months before have jostled him
at some ill-favoured lunch counter. For in America, dreams of
gold-not, alas, golden dreams-do prevalently come true; and of all
the butterfly happenings in this pleasant land of larvae, few are
so spectacular as the process by which, without warning, a man is
converted from a toiler and bearer of loads to a taker of his bien.
However, to none, one must believe, is the changeling such
gazing-stock as to himself.
