The not especially sweet-tempered young wife of a Kaslo B.C., man one day approached her lord concerning the matter of one hundred dollars or so.
"I'd like to let you have it, my dear," began the husband, "but the fact is I haven't that amount in the bank this morning - that is to say, I haven't that amount to spare, inasmuch as I must take up a note for two hundred dollars this afternoon."
"Oh, very well, James!" said the wife, with an ominous calmness, "If you think the man who holds the note can make things any hotter for you than I can - why, do as you say, James!"
