Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.
I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in

"Sir," I replied, "if the Americans or anyone else dislike
my beard, they will have to go on disliking. My jaw bones
were shattered by Japanese boots, and I wear a beard to
disguise my injuries."
My employer talked with me for quite a time and before
we parted he gave me a very satisfactory sum of money,
saying that I had kept my part of the bargain, he would
keep his.
The American was a flashy individual, rolling a huge
88
cigar between his thick lips. His teeth were liberally studded
with gold fillings, and his clothes really dazzled with their
gaudiness. Dancing attendance upon him was a very arti-
