　　Jim seemed to awake. He hugged his Della. He drew a small package from his overcoat pocket and threw it upon the table. "Don't make any mistake about me, Della," he said. "I don't think there's anything in the way of a haircut or a shampoo that could make me love my girl any less. Would you stop loving me if I'd had a shave? No. But if you open that package, you may see why I was upset at first."

　　Della tore at the string and paper. She gave a scream 0f joy, and then broke out in tears and cries. For there lay the Combs -- the set of combs that Della had been looking at so many times in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoiseshell, with jewels on the edges --just the right shade to wear in her beautiful hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and she had dreamed that she could have them. And now, they were hers, but her hair had gone. However, she hugged them to her breast, and at length she was able to look up and smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim!"

　　Just then Della jumped up and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash, as if reflecting her bright spirit. "Isn't it grand, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it."
