A CIGAR

Mr. Dickson felt very bad. One of his friends recommended him doctor Hill who always gave his patients good advice. So Mr. Dickson made arrangements to see the doctor the next day.

When doctor Hill had examined Mr. Dickson, he told him to go to a village and stay there not less than a month. He also recommended him to go to bed early, drink milk, eat a lot of vegetables and meat and to smoke only one cigar a day. "If you take my advice," said the doctor, "you will soon feel as well as before." Mr. Dickson looked a little surprised when he heard the doctor's advice, but the doctor did not notice it and though Mr. Dickson was about to ask him something he called the next patient.

A month later Mr. Dickson came to doctor Hill again. "How are you?" the doctor asked him. "You look better now. Did my advice help you?"

"Thank you," said Mr. Dickson, "I did all you had recommended me to do. I went to the country, I ate a lot of meat and vegetables but one cigar a day nearly killed me. You see it is impossible to begin smoking at my age."
