Two panel comic strip shows Everett True in a butcher shop, after receiving his parcel he beckons the butcher, when the butcher returns True pushes his head down to the counter so he can get a closer look at the change he has left after the transaction. True asks the butcher if, perhaps, he shouldn’t “wrap up the change, too?” He complains that “it’s all smeared over with blood and grease” and tells him to “Clean it off!!!”
