u able to read the note easily？ Some doctors write clearly but most doctors do not. Chemists have more chances to read doctors' notes but sometimes doctors write so badly that even the chemist can't read them.

One day a lady wrote to a doctor inviting him to have dinner at her house. The doctor wrote an answer, but he didn't write clearly and the lady could not read it.

"What shall I do？" she said to her husband, "I don't know whether he is coming or not. I don't want to give him a telephone call and say that I can't read his writing." Her husband thought a moment, then he had an idea. "Thank you" said his wife. "That's a very good idea."

She went to the drugstore and gave the doctor's note to the chemist. The chemist looked at it very carefully. Then he said politely, "Could you wait a moment, madam？" He went to the back of the drugstore. After a few minutes he returned, carrying a large bottle. He gave the bottle to the lady and said, "Three times a day and one spoonful at a time."

A very old lady won a million dollars in a lottery(彩票). Her son and his wife heard the news on the radio. “How are we going to tell your mother？” the wife asked. “The shock might kill her!”

“That's true,” the son said. “Perhaps we'd better speak to her doctor about it. He'll know how to break(告诉)the news to her gently.”

They explained the situation to the old lady's doctor.

“I'm glad you told me,” he said, “A shock, even a happy one, could give her a heart attack. Leave it to me. I'll find a way of breaking the news to her.”

He thought about the problem for several days, then decided what he would say. He called on(拜访)the old lady and sat by her beside. He took her hand in his. “Let's play a game, my dear,” he said. “Let's Pretend' game.”

“Oh, yes,” the old lady said. “I love 'Let's Pretend' game.”

“Good. I'll ask you a question first,” the doctor said. “Then you can tell me one.”

He pretended to think for a few moments. Then he said, “Tell me, what would you do if you won a million dollars in the lottery？” “Oh, that's an easy one,” the old lady said. “I'd give most of it to you, doctor, because you have been so good to me all these years. Doctor!”
