STORY 25. 
Mrs. Jenkins went to see her doctor one day, because her heart was giving her trouble. The doctor 
listened to her heart carefully and did a few other things. Then he said, ‘Well, Mrs. Jenkins, stop smoking, and 
then you’ll soon be quite all right again.’ ‘But doctor,’ answered Mrs. Jenkins quickly, ‘I’ve never smoked. I 
don’t like smoking.’ ‘Oh, well,’ said the doctor, ‘then don’t drink any more alcohol.’ ‘But I don’t drink 
alcohol,’ answered Mrs. Jenkins at once. ‘Stop drinking tea and coffee then,’ the doctor said to her. ‘I only 
drink water,’ answered Mrs. Jenkins. ‘I don’t like tea or coffee.’ The doctor thought for a few seconds and then 
said, ‘Well, . . . er . . . do you like fried potatoes?’ ‘Yes, I like them very much,’ answered Mrs. Jenkins. ‘All 
right, then stop eating those,’ said the doctor as he got up to say goodbye to Mrs. Jenkins.
 
 
STORY 26. 
John liked chocolates very much, but his mother never gave him any, because they were bad for 
his teeth, she thought. But John had a very nice grandfather. The old man loved his grandson very much, and 
sometimes he brought John chocolates when he came to visit him. Then his mother let him eat them, because 
she wanted to make the old man happy. One evening, a few days before John’s seventh birthday, he was saying 
his prayers in his bedroom before he went to bed. ‘Please, God, he shouted,’ make them give me a big box of 
chocolates for my birthday on Saturday.’ His mother was in the kitchen, but she heard the small boy shouting 
and went into his bedroom quickly. ‘Why are you shouting, John?’ she asked her son. ‘God can hear you when 
you talk quietly.’ ‘I know,’ answered the clever boy with a smile, ‘but Grandfather’s in the next room, and he 
can’t.’
