I'm Trying to Stop It

"Boy, why have you got cotton-wool in your ear? Is it infected? "

"No, sir, but you said yesterday that everything you told me went in one ear and out the other, so I am trying to stop it."

"Child, Why did you plug your ears with cotton? Is it infected?"

"No, teacher, but you said yesterday that the knowledge you told me goes in one ear and comes out the other, so I have to. Block it in."

"I'm sorry, Madam, but I shall have to charge you twenty dollars for pulling your boy's tooth."

“Twenty d ollars! Why , I understand you to say that you charged only four dollars for such work!”

“Yes , but this youngster yelled so terribly that he scared four other patients out of the office."

"I'm sorry, ma'am, I have to charge $20 for your child's tooth extraction."

"Why not just $4 as promised?" /p>

"Yes, but your child screamed and scared four other patients away."
