Bertha Loeb approached with the forward peer of the nearsighted. Time and maternity had had their whacks at her figure, her stoutness enhanced by a bothersome shelf of bust, but her face the same virile profile of her son's and with the graying hair parted tightly from it guiltless of lines, except now, regarding her daughter-in-law, a horizontal crease came into her brow.
