Wales Not a Happy Man.

The Prince of Wales Is far from being a happy man. He has waited so long that he has about given up hope of ever being king. He is already a grandfather, while his mother seems destined to live many years yet He has seen everything worth seeing, met everybody worth meeting, is debarred from mingling in politics, seems to have no mission in life, no purpose to carry out. His position in life prevents his acting like a sensible man; he must keep up certain forms, submit to being toadied to, and be at the beck and call of everybody who has a social ax to grind, Wales is perhaps not a very able man, but he is too manly to be satisfied with his present merely ornamental position In life. He is not half as happy as the average American citizen who has something to do and who is not ashamed to do it.
