00539--Mulla Nasrudin Stories-3



Problem solving

When the pain in Mulla Nasrudin's back became unbearable, he reluctantly went to a specialist to diagnose his problem.

"Well," said the doctor, "your problem can be cured by an operation, two weeks in the hospital and six months totally horizontal."

"Doctor, I can't afford the cost of all that!" shouted Nasrudin.


"Well then, for twenty-five rupees I can retouch the X-ray," suggested the doctor.
