| First Sentence: |
It is singular what a mania so many people, otherwise sensible, have for statistics. |
| Last Sentence: |
Talk about the weather-read a poem Spring; or a humorous (?) article on the mother-in-law; or regale us with a leaf from last year's almanac; or a paper on How to Raise Squashes; but don't swamp, and perplex, and devastate, and shipwreck, and harrow up our immortal souls with statistics and mathematical calculations. |
