18 Smoking is Not Good
One day, an old man went to see the doctor. The doctor examined him and said," Medicine won't help you. You must have a good rest. Go to a quiet country for a month, go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot, and smoke just one cigar a day."
A month later the man came to the doctor again. "How are you?" said the doctor, "I'm glad to see you again. You look much younger." "Oh! Doctor, I feel quite well now," said the man. "1 had a good rest. I went to bed early. I drank a lot of milk. I walked a lot. Your advice certainly helped me. But you told me to smoke one cigar a day, and that one cigar a day almost killed me at first. It's no joke to start smoking at my age."
