I do not mean【C2】______ collecting, such as stamps or old china,【C3】______ the habit so many of us have of keeping things in case they【C4】______ in "handy". This is especially true of【C5】______ such as shoes, sweaters and ancient raincoats which, though out of【C6】______ and worn-out, remain hanging in our wardrobes【C7】______ looked at or put on, but just comfortingly there.
An old man who lived next door to us at one time used to【C8】______ newspapers. He simply could not bear to【C9】______ a newspaper away, though once he had read it, he never glanced at it【C10】______ . When he died at close【C11】______ ninety, two rooms of his house were filled with yellow newspapers which had become 【C12】______ for several families of mice.
Then an aunt of mine had a passion【C13】______ collecting string. To throw away a piece of string was to commit a deadly【C14】______ in her eyes. No piece of string was【C15】______ short to escape her attention. She saved the string off parcels and packages of all sorts, even luggage labels.

It was a terrible blow to her when sticky tape【C20】______ general use--in fact she did not survive it long.
