A sharp and shiny CARVING KNIFE...
The PLOT for a movie script...
Five CONTRACTS, slightly arbitrary but absolutely legal...
A PAMPHLET passed out by a religious fanatic...
A small pharmacist’s box full of PHENOBARBITAL...
A similar BOX full of something more dangerous...
A bottle of BUTTERMILK...
A box of ROACH POWDER...
A quantity of TAPS FOR RATS -- which means just what it says...
Two dishes of raw HAMBURGER...
A PHONOGRAPH without any NEEDLES...
A VEGETARIAN who doesn't have any of the smaller vices like smoking or drinking, but must have some of the bigger ones.
