"Max has sent me an interesting book, 'Relativity,' by Einstein. Have you read it?"
"No. I am waiting for it to be filmed."
EMBARRASSING SITUATIONS
The wife of a Dorchester man who had the traditional failing—he forgot to mail letters—has cured him. The mail is delivered at their home before the breakfast hour—which is comparatively late. One morning she said to her husband:
"Did you have any mail this morning, dear?"
"Only a circular," he answered as he bit into a fine brown slice of toast.
"Huh," said the wife. "By the way, did you mail the letters I gave you yesterday?"
"Sure I did," was the righteously indignant reply.
"Well," answered wifie, with an eloquent smile, "it's funny, then, you had no letters this morning, because one of those I gave you to mail was addressed to you—just as a sort of key."
