The goods were shipped immediately and reached home before he did. when the boxes were delivered at his store by the drayman his wife happened to look at the largest ; she uttered a loud cry and called for a hammer. A neighbour, hearing the screams, rushed to her assistance and asked what was the matter. The wife, pale and faint, pointed to an inscription on the box, which read as follows : "Bill inside."
