The Gift of the Magi

ONE DOLLAR AND EIGHTY-SEVEN CENTS. That was all. And sixty cents of it

was in pennies. Pennies saved one and two at a time by bulldozing the groceries and

the vegetable man and the butcher until one's cheek burned with the silent imputation

of parsimony that such close dealing implied. Three times Della counted it. One dollar

and eighty-seven cents. And the next day would be Christmas.

There was clearly nothing left to do but flop down on the shabby little couch and howl.

So Della did it. Which instigates the moral reflection that life is made up of sobs,

sniffles, and smiles, with sniffles predominating.

While the mistress of the home is gradually subsiding from the first stage to the

second, take a look at the home. A furnished flat at $8 per week. It did not exactly

beggar description, but it certainly had that word on 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. Also appertaining thereunto was

a card bearing the name 'Mr. James Dillingham Young.'

The 'Dillingham' had been flung to the breeze during a former period of prosperity

when its possessor was being paid $30 per week. Now, when the income was shrunk

to $20, the letters of 'Dillingham' looked blurred, as though they were thinking

seriously of contracting to a modest and unassuming D. But whenever Mr. James

Dillingham Young came home and reached his flat above he was called Jim' and

greatly hugged by Mrs. James Dillingham Young, already introduced to you as Della.

Which is all very good.

Della finished her cry and attended to her cheeks with the powder rag. She stood by

the window and looked out dully at a grey cat walking a grey fence in a grey

backyard. To-morrow would be Christmas Day, and she had only $1.87 with which to

buy Jim a present. She had been saving every penny she could for months, with this

result. Twenty dollars a week doesn't go far. Expenses had been

greater than she had calculated. They always are. Only $1.87 to buy a present for

Jim. Her Jim. Many a happy hour she had spent planning for something nice for

him. Some- thing fine and rare and sterling - something just a little bit near to

being worthy of the honor of being owned by Jim.

There was a pier-glass between the windows of the room. Per- haps you have seen

a pier-glass in an $8 flat. A very thin and very agile person may, by observing his

reflection in a rapid sequence of longitudinal strips, obtain a fairly accurate

conception of his looks. Della, being slender, had mastered the art.
