WE WARN YOU It is only fair to warn the reader that if too many of these stories are read at one sitting in the dead of night we cannot hold ourselves responsible for the damage to his nervous system that may result. However, one or two stories, if read in a comfortable sitting room with warm sunlight streaming in, will cause no ill effects unless someone tiptoes in and taps the reader on the shoulder.
