“Dearest Twinka, I have just learned that you have such a large and pedibile rhub! This natural delicacy adapts immediately to circumstances, and I hasten to write to you as you speak. Boy, I was prey to the dentist, and I hid it all the more jealously because I had lost a piece of porcelain encrusted in an incisor! Don-only lost, but swallowed!! Since last night I have been repaired, but I would really like you to be cured. Baurice, the perfect husband, has arranged to have a dance in the evening.

Dear Twinka, take care of yourself, use all the warmth of your kiss for yourself. I always love you, I'm waiting for spring, and Pauline has just said that there are more planes than eight days of heating... I kiss you with all my heart, and Baurice is at your feet. Your Colette. »
