            Flora, eight year old, was sent to visit a very prim aunt.  The last minute instructions given her were, “If you have to go to the bathroom, be sure to say, ‘I would like to powder my nose.’”

            When it was time to leave, her aunt said, “I loved having you here.  Next time you must bring your little sister, Megan.”

            “I better not,” said Flora.  “Megan still powders her nose in bed.”
