What Everybody Does


HOPKINS once lent Simpson, his next door neighbor, an umbrella, and

having an urgent call to make on a wet day, knocked at Simpson's door.

I want my umbrella.--Can't have it, said Simpson. Why? I want to go

to the East End, and it rains in torrents; what am I to do for an

umbrella?--Do? answered Simpson, passing through the door, do as I

did, borrow one!
