    A story
    Once there was a woman who had a bad cold on her chest. She went to the doctor and he gave her a plaster and told her to put it on her chest. When she went home she put the plaster on a big box in her room. The next time she met the doctor he asked her did she put the plaster on her chest. She told him she had no chest but that she put it on a box and that it was there yet and she was no better.
