One day an Indian went to see his doctor. The doctor looked him over and said, “Medicine won’t help you. You must have a good rest. Go to a quiet country place for a month, go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot, and smoke only one cigar(雪茄) a day.”
A month later, the Indian came to see the doctor again. “How are you?” said the doctor. “I’m glad to see you again.
