It has been my good fortune to contribute at various times to the University of Chicago, of which Dr. Harper was president, and the newspapers not unnaturally supposed at such times that he used the occasions of our personal association to secure these contributions. The cartoonists used to find this a fruitful theme. They would picture Dr. Harper as a hypnotist waving his magic spell, or would represent him forcing his way into my inner office where I was pictured as busy cutting coupons and from which delightful employment I incontinently fled out of the window at sight of him; or they would represent me as fleeing across rivers on cakes of floating ice with Dr. Harper in hot pursuit; or perhaps he would be following close on my trail, like the wolf in the Russian story, in inaccessible country retreats, while I escaped only by means of the slight delays I occasioned him by now and then dropping a million-dollar bill, which he would be obliged to stop and pick up.

白话
我有幸多次给哈珀博士当校长的芝加哥大学捐钱，报纸自然就猜想，他是借我们私下见面的机会来拉捐款。漫画家觉得这题材很有意思：他们把哈珀博士画成施催眠术的人，挥着魔法；或者画他闯进我的内办公室，我正忙着剪息票，一见他赶紧跳窗逃走；或者画我踩着浮冰过河，他在后面紧追；或者画他像俄国故事里的狼一样，追到偏僻的乡间藏身处，我只好时不时丢下一张百万美元钞票，他不得不停下来捡，我才勉强脱身。
