Those Gift Cigars.

Hemmenhaw handed his best friend a cigar. ‘Have a smoke,” he said. "Sure,” said the friend. "There, I’m glad that’s off my mind!” “Off your mind ?” -. "Yes; that cigar is the last of a box my wife gave me. for Christmas, and I will tell you in confidence I have been handing them out all day. You got the last. Ha, ha!” “Well, the laugh la on you.” “On me?” “Yes; I went with your wife to pick out those cigars, and they were the very best I. could find in town.”
