A man got into a train and found himself sitting beside a woman. She seemed to be about thirty-five years old. Soon they began to talk to each other. The man asked, "Do you have a family?"

"Yes, I have a son," the woman answered.

"Does he smoke?" asked the man.

"No, never," the woman answered.

"That's god. Does your son drink wine?"

"Oh,no," the woman answered at once.

"And does he ever come home late at night?"

"No, he goes to bed after dinner."

"Well," the man said, "he's a good young man. How old is he?"

"He's six months old," the woman answered.
