"DID you see that?" said Mrs. Jones to her friend Mrs. Lion, with whom she was walking.
"See what?"
"Why, that Mrs. Todd didn't speak to me."
"No. I thought she spoke to you as well as to me."
"Indeed, then, and she didn't."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure? Can't I believe my own eyes? She nodded and spoke to you, but she didn't as much as look at me."
"What in the world can be the reason, Mrs. Jones?"
"Dear knows!"
"You certainly must be mistaken. Mrs. Todd would not refuse to speak to one of her old friends in the street."
