Book excerpt: Excerpt from Caesar Cascabel "Has nobody got any more coppers to give me? Come, children, search your pockets!" "Here you are, father!" replied the little girl. And she drew out of her pocket a square-cut piece of greenish paper, all crumpled and greasy. This paper bore the almost illegible inscription "United States Fractional Currency," encircling the respectable-looking head of a gentleman in a frock-coat, and likewise the figure 10 repeated six times, - which represented ten cents, say about ten French sous. "How did you come by that?" inquired the mother. "It's the remnant of the takings at the last performance," answered Napoleona. "Gave me everything, Sander?" "Yes, father." "Nothing left, John?" "Nothing." "Why, how much more do you want, Caesar?" asked Cornelia of her husband. "Two cents is all we want to make up a round sum," replied Cascabel.
