文摘The Gift ofthe Magi
One dollar and eighty.seven cents.That was a11.And sixty cents of itwas in pennies.Pennies saved one and two at a time by bulldozing thegrocer and the vegetable man and the butcher until one's cheek burnedwith the silent imputation of parsimony that such close dealing implied.Three times Della counted it.One dollar and eighty.seven cents.And thenext day would be Christmas.
There was clearly nothing left to do but flop down on the shabbv littlecouch and howl.So Della did it.Which instigates the moral reflection thatlife is made up of sobs,sniffles,and smiles,with sniffles predominating.
While the mistress of the home is gradually subsiding from the。firststage to the second.take a look at the home.A fumished flat at$8 perweek.It did not exactly beggar description,but it certainly had that wordon the look-out for the mendicancy squad.
In the vestibule below was a letter-box into which no letter would go,and an electric button from which no mortal finger could coax a ring.A1soappertaining thereunto was a card beating the name'Mr.James Dillingh-amYoung.'
The'Dillingham'had been flung to the breeze during a former period ofprosperity when its possessor was being Paid$30 per week.Now,whenthe income was shrunk to$20,the letters of'Dillingham'looked blurred.as though they were thinking seriously of contracting to a modest andunassuming D.But whenever Mr.James Dillingham Young came homeand reached his flat above he was called'Jim'and greatly hugged by Mrs.James Dillingham Young,already introduced to you as Della.which is allvery good.
Della finished her cry and attended to her cheeks wim the powder rag.She stood bv the window and looked out dully at a grey cat walking a greyfence in a grey backyard.To.morrow would be Christmas Day.and shehad only 1.87 with which to buy Jim a present.She had been savingevery penny she could for months.wim this result.Twenty dollars a weekdoesn't go far.
