Now, her third. She said her friend’s maid was overweight. She weighed twenty-five pounds more than she wanted to weigh and her doctor said she must lose the weight. I said to her, “What would you like to weigh?” She said, “A hundred and forty pounds.” I said, “Alright.” She said, “I’ve tried and tried and I can’t lose a pound.” My friend with her telephone technique goes into this act of hers that this maid is now weighing 140 pounds. “Now soon after that I left the city for a few months, and only occasionally would I come in for one day. On that day the maid wasn’t there. I inquired, but she wasn’t there. Then, when I finally came in and met the maid, she said, “I tried so hard to find you to tell that I went all the way down to 140 pounds. And when I weighed 140, I asked the lady for whom I worked if she knew where you were because I had to contact you because I now weigh 140 pounds. But, at the moment I weigh 139 and the reason for it is this: I couldn’t find you when I weighed 140 and I couldn’t stop it, and I went down to 139.”1007 ¶8
