Book excerpt: "It possessed a quantity of jet-black hair, a pair of extremely frank, deep-brown eyes and a laugh that rippled across the prairie like the sound of a hidden brook. The name of it was Rosita McMullen..." Though Rosita has many suitors, she ultimately chooses the young cattleman Madison Lane and the two are wed on Christmas Day. Rejected lover Jonny McRoy crashes the wedding and fires off his handgun yelling, "I'll give you a Christmas present!" But luckily he is deterred by the armed guests. It's only a matter of time, however, until Christmas time comes around once more and it's McRoy's turn to bring presents... American short story master O. Henry is best known for his pithy, witty scores and surprise endings. In doing so he made commonplace experiences extraordinary and memorable.

Download or read book The Cat who Couldn t See in the Dark written by S. Howard Padwee and published by Mariner Books. This book was released on 1998-09 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unusual book, Dr. Padwee and his collaborator Moolman, an author and documentary scriptwriter, combine personal experiences drawn from the former's many years as a New York City veterinarian specializing in Felis catus with much information about cats ('A cat has one hundred thirty thousand hairs per square inch on its belly') and cat care ('Have you brushed your cat's teeth lately'). They describe various breeds of cats, from domestic shorthair to Burmese and the exotic Korat, and give facts about feline afflictions, ranging from fleas to leukemia, including a chapter on zoonoses, diseases that can be passed from animals to people; while relating stories, both amusing and touching, about individual patients and their people--perhaps most notably a multilived puss named Pawline (after the heroine in a silent movie melodrama titled The Perils of Pauline) and the Simpsons, a wealthy family with 6 children and 22 cats who regularly reserved 16 train compartments to transport everyone to Florida for the winter.
