[The Weekly Puck] Bunker Hill

[progbear]

Comparatively Chilly

by Albert Levering (1906)

Occupant of the Upper.—For Heaven’s sake, man, how can you stand all those bed-clothes? I’m simply melting in this heat!
Occupant of the Lower.—Heat!?! Why I’m almost cold! But you see I ride in the Subway, twice a day, when I’m home in New York.

Lazy Curator™ sez: I think the sweat raining down on the lower bunk is also providing cooling (um...ew!).

I have been to New York in July, so I can confirm this.
