She's Sweet & Careful




One afternoon the pastor came round to call on her, and she showed him into her quaint sitting room and invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea.

As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cut glass bowl sitting on top of it.  The dish was filled with water and in the water floated, of all things, a condom!

When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat.

The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him, and he could no longer resist.

“Miss Beatrice,” he said, “I wonder if you would tell me about this?” pointing to the bowl.

“Oh, yes,” she replied, “Isn't it wonderful?  I was walking through the park a few months ago, and I found this little package on the ground.  The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease.   And wouldn’t you be knowin’… I haven't had a cold or the flu all this long winter.
