a

Jim
Dillingham
Young
and
his
wife
Della
are
a
young
couple
who
are
very
much
in
love
with
each
other,
but
can
barely
afford
their
one-room
apartment
opposite
the
elevated
train
due
to
their
very
bad
economic
condition.
For
Christmas,
Della
decides
to
buy
Jim
a
chain
which
costs
twenty
dollars
for
his
prized
pocket
watch
given
to
him
by
his
father.
To
raise
the
funds,
she
has
her
prized
long
hair
cut
off
and
sold
to
make
a
wig.
Meanwhile,
Jim
decides
to
sell
his
watch
to
buy
Della
a
beautiful
set
of
combs
made
out
of
tortoise
shell
for
her
lovely,
knee-length
brown
hair.
Although
each
is
disappointed
to
find
the
gift
they
chose
rendered
useless,
each
is
pleased
with
the
gift
they
received,
because
it
represents
their
love
for
one
another.
The
true
unselfish
love
that
the
characters,
Jim
and
Della,
share
is
greater
than
their possessions
