A Dyeing Patient
Doctor:—“My dear woman, your husband is in the greatest danger! His hands and arms are very red; he has scarlet fever in the worst form!”
Wife:—“But, Doctor, my husband is a dyer, and was using red this morning.”
Doctor:—“Oh well, then I can perhaps save him yet!”
Curiosity
“You see, Doctor, whenever I shake my head, my brain hurts dreadfully.”
“Why do you shake your head, then?”
“How else can I find out that my brain hurts?”
