  LITERARY LAPSES 
  
  My Financial Career 
  
  When I go into a bank I get rattled. The clerks rattle me; the wickets rattle me; the sight of the money rattles me; everything rattles me. 
  The moment I cross the threshold of a bank and attempt to transact business there, I become an irresponsible idiot. 
  I knew this beforehand, but my salary had been raised to fifty dollars a month and I felt that the bank was the only place for it.
