Literature. Part nine.

                      "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry

Jim and Della are young spouses. So, on Christmas Eve they decided to make a gift to each other. Couple had less than two dollars. Main family treasures are Della's brown hair and Jim's old watch.

Della sold her hair and bought a platinum chain for husband's watch; Jim sold his watch and bought several combs with tortoise shell for wife's hair.

At the end they embraced and put oof their Christmas gifts. It's sad. But they tried to one another. It's happy.
