Harry was delighted when the love of his life accepted his proposal of marriage. Very sensitive about his wooden leg, Harry was so afraid that she wouldn't accept him because of it that he couldn't bring himself to tell her about it, not when he proposed, nor when they picked a date, and not even the day of their wedding. All he could say was, "Darling, I have a big surprise for you!" and she would blush and smile bewitchingly. Finally, the wedding was over and they were at last alone in their hotel room.
"Don't forget, Harry. You promised me a big surprise!" laughed his bride. Unable to say a word, Harry turned out the lights, unstrapped his wooden leg, slipped into bed, and placed his wife's hand on his stump. "Hmm," she said softly, "that is a surprise! But let me get the K-Y jelly and I'll see what I can do!"
