IF-FG Member of an Hour:next question? - Page 525

The paragraph below is most unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why?

------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------
"Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night. A busy day's traffic had had its noisy run; and with not many folks in sight, His Honor got along without having to stop to grasp a hand, or talk; for a mayor out of City Hall is a shining mark for any politician. And so, coming to Broadway, a booming bass drum and sounds of singing, told of a small Salvation Army unit carrying on amidst Broadway's night shopping crowds. Gatsby, walking towards that group, saw a young girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... "

The above passage is taken from the book "Gatsby" written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930's

ok here is ma question....

One day elephant and ant got married.
After some months the elephant returned from work and the ant said something to him, after hearing the ant the elephant fainted.... What did the ant said to the elephant?

don't know. could be something like 'i am going to have a baby elephant'

Hint: Look closely at the words, what do they all have in common?
