Once upon a time there lived a terribly talkative woman. During her illness she became completely unbearable. One day my husband called a doctor. Wanting to measure the temperature, the doctor took a thermometer out of his bag and put it in the patient’s mouth. The patient lay with the thermometer for five minutes.
“My dear doctor,” said the husband, accompanying him to the door, “how much can you give me this instrument for?”
