You had better give me some advice. I have not had a quiet moment since I took the book. I want to destroy it but how can I? If I tear it up the pieces will be found. (HAUSER: Burn it.) Where? There is no fire in the house, except in the kitchen range. If I hide it, I shall always have to run to and fro to see if it is there, and I feel less safe if I have it on my person. Then I have always a feeling as though that thing were bulging out my pocket; and the police must be missing it by this time. (HAUSER: Oh, tear out the page on which your name appears and send it back anonymously.) Impossible. My name appears on almost every second page.
