A farmer who lives in a small village has a bad pain in the chest.This never seems to get any better.The farmer decides that he will go to see a doctor in the nearest town.But as he is a miserly person,he thinks he will find out what he will have to pay the doctor.He is told that a sick person has to pay three pounds for the first visit and one pound for the second visit.The farmer thinks about this for a long time,and then he decides to go to the doctor in the town.
As he comes into the doctor's room,he says ,"Good morning,doctor.Here I am again." The doctor is a little surprised.He asks him a few questions,checks his chest and then takes the pound which the farmer insists on him.Then the doctor says with a smile,"well,sir,there's nothing new.Please go on taking the same medicine I give you the first time you come to see me."
