Mrs. Matilda Guille, of Sark, Channel Islands, is 91. Last time she was away from Sark was 40 years ago—for a day.
She has never seen a film, a car, or an aeroplane. She's never been photographed. She's never used the telephone.
"What have I missed?" she asks.
Just a few little things that keep other people from living to be 91, Drink More Coffee You know what Mark Twain said to the ship's steward: "If this is coffee, bring me te: tea, bring me coffee."
Mr. L. S. Amery, M.P, retold this story in appealing to the British people to drink more coffee—Empire coffee is best.
He said that while people on the Continent each drank, on an average, fifteen cups of coffee a month, we only drank two and a-half.
It isn't our cup of tea.
