There isno sense in asking anyone toread aloud.

On the otherhand, people my age are somuch older than I am.I ran into an old classmatethe other day, and she hadchanged so much (aged) thatshe did not recognize me.I got to thinking aboutthe poor thing while Iwas combing my hair thismorning, and in doing so Iglanced at my reflection . . .confound it!
