Old John went to see a doctor. The doctor examined and said, “ Medicine can’t help you. You must have a good rest. Go to a quiet place for a month, go to bed early, drink some milk, walk a lot and smoke one cigar (雪茄) a day.”
“Thank you very much,” said old John, “ I will do everything you say.”
A month later old John came to the doctor again. “ Well, I’m glad to see you. You look much younger.” Said the doctor.
