merely pair Of long, whiteruflied,

top with narrow band, and they did
not come down to my knees. They were
pretty enough, but they made me feel

that. The man must have been an
idiot to get himself up like that to
rough it in the Swiss mountains. The
shirt they brought me was shorter than
the drawers and hadn't any sleeves TO

blades; but they did not seem to fit me,

garment. They gave my bobtail coat
to somebody else, and sent me an ulster
suitable for giraffe. had TO tie my
collar on because there was no button
on the foolish shirt which described a
little while ago."
