Just before we leave a waiter comes up to me and says in a casual manner, "Found your humbreller yet, sir?" "No." "Wat kind of er humbreller was it, sir?" "Neat little brown silk umbrella, with an ivory handle." "W'y, I wouldn't wonder if that was your humbreller in the corner now in the reading-room, sir." I make haste to look.
"Is that your humbreller, sir?" the waiter says, rubbing his hands and getting in my way as I walk briskly out, at peril of being stumbled over by my hurrying feet. I scorn to reply, but I give him a glance of such withering contempt that I trust it pierced to his wicked heart, and will remain there, a punishment and a warning, to the last day of his base life.
