He
quickly
learned
how
difficult
it
is
to
spend
money
.
There
were
so
many
things
from
which
to
choose
,
all
of
them
wonderful
and
most
of
them
incomprehensible
.
Surrounded
by
thick
catalogs
from
Marshall
Field
’
s
to
the
Ginza
,
and
back
by
way
of
Bombay
and
Copenhagen
,
he
felt
smothered
in
a
plethora
of
riches
.
Even
the
Sears
amp
;
Montgomery
catalog
was
too
much
for
him
.
But
Jill
helped
.

Mike
,
Duke

not
want
a
tractor
.

Um
,
maybe
–
but
he
’
s
got
one
,
or
Jubal
has
,
which
is
the
same
thing
.
He
might
like
one
of
those
cute
little
Belgian
unicycles
–
he
could
take
it
apart
and
put
it
together
and
shine
it
all
day
long
.
But
even
that
is
too
expensive
,
what
with
the
taxes
.
Mike
dear
,
a
present
ought
not
to
be
very
expensive
–
unless
you
are
trying
to
get
a
girl
to
marry
you
,
or
something
.
Especially
‘
something
.
’
But
a
present
should
show
that
you
thought
about
it
and
considered
that
person
’
s
tastes
.
Something
he
would
enjoy
but
probably
would
not
buy
for
himself
.
"
"
How
?
"
"
That
’
s
always
the
problem
.
Wait
a
minute
.
I
just
remembered
something
in
this
morning
’
s
mail
–
I
hope
Larry
hasn
’
t
carted
it
off
yet
.
"
She
was
back
quickly

Found
it

capping
the
house
–
and
the
next
ad
for
the
same
item
to
arrive
in
the
house
boasted
:
"
-
exactly
as
supplied
to
the
Man
from
Mars
,
by

appointment
,
"
which
pleased
Mike
and
annoyed
Jill
.
Other
presents
were
just
as
difficult
,
but
picking
a
present
for
Jubal
was
supremely
difficult
.
Jill
was
stumped
.
What
does
one
buy
for
a
man
who
has
everything
–
everything
,
that
is
to
say
,
that
he
wants
which
money
can
buy
?
The
Sphinx
?
Three
Wishes
?
The
fountain
that
Ponce
de
Leon
failed
to
find
?
Oil
for
his
ancient
bones
,
or
one
golden
day
of
youth
?
Jubal
had
long
ago
even
foresworn
pets
,
because
he
outlived
them
,
or
(
worse
yet
)
it
was
now
possible
that
a
pet
would
outlive
him
,
be
orphaned
.
Privately
they
consulted
the
others
.
"
Shucks
,
"
Duke
told
them
,
"
didn
’
t
you
know
?
The
boss
likes
statues
