In the old days the dealer used to give you the dust and everything. Now they use the whisk broom on each lump like a bellhop on a distinguished foreigner. * * * Two kinds of coal. Bithumorous and Anthrastrike. The Bithuhorous is so called because the dealer gives you so little for your dough that it’s funny. The Anthrastrike explains itself and differs in that respect from an income blank.
