go home and treasure the memory of his face as the whitest thing in
our museum of recollections. And perhaps this good woman will also

PORTER returning with the Sanitatsmachine, turns it on from
behind, and its pinkish shower, goldened by a ray of sunlight,
falls around the LITTLE MAN's head, transfiguring it as he
stands with eyes upraised to see whence the portent comes.]

his pocket camera] This ought to look bully!
