Miss Bea was in her 80's and much admired for her sweetness
and kindness to all. The pastor came to call on her
one afternoon early in the Spring and she welcomed him
into her Victorian parlor. She invited him to have a
seat while she prepared a little tea.
As he sat facing her old pump organ, the minister noticed
a crystal glass bowl sitting on top of it filled with
water. In the water floated, of all things, a condom.
Imagine his shock and surprise. Imagine his curiosity;
surely Miss Bea had flipped! But he certainly couldn't
mention the strange sight in her parlor.
When she returned with tea and cookies they began to
chat. The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about
the bowl and its strange floater, but soon it got the
best of him, and he could resist no longer.
"Miss Bea," 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
down town last fall and I found this little package.
It said to put it on your organ and keep it wet, and
it would prevent disease. And you know, I think it is
working. I haven't had a cold all winter!"
