Rubbing It In.

“I don’t know,” muses the man With the wispy hair, gazing at his birthday present; “I don’t know. Maybe Henrietta didn’t mean anything by it, and maybe she did—but it seems kind o’ funny that after all these years shs should make me a present of this book on ‘Ruling by Will Power, or How to Master Your Surroundings.’ It’s the first gift she ever gave me that wasn’t useful.” —Judge.
