HIS DINNER FOR TWO

He discovers that their very last possible dinner is barely sufficient for one. To make sure that his wife shall have it alone, he pretends to have an engagement with friends. She, unaware of his self-denial, gets a little jealous of his preferring the society of friends and leaving her alone. He suddenly obtains lucrative employment and returns to tell her of it.
