Fact is, for the moment, it was the only thing I saw. Somehow, its splash of yellow there under the shaded lamp seemed to catch my eye and hold it. I screwed my glass tight and examined the thing with interest. Nothing remarkable; just a tiny, ob long package, bearing curious foreign markings, its wrapper plainly addressed to me, but - "By Jove! From China!" I ejaculated. Somebody in far-off China sending me a present, with duties and charges prepaid evidently. What the deuce was it? I shook it without get ting any revelation; then I weighed it in my hand. The thing was devilish light! In fact, so light that, allowing for outside wrapper and box, dashed if I could see how there was anything at all.
