Wife's Support

George had always been a busy, tense man and his doctor informed him he would have to stop working and rest for a year. His wife Mildred lovingly agreed to support them for a year, but she was not a bright girl, and the only profession she was qualified for was the world's oldest. At the end of her first day out, she arrived home a sorry sight, in a state of near-exhaustion.

'How much did you earn, dear?'

'One pound three and sixpence.'

'That isn't very much for twelve hours' work. Who gave you the sixpence?'

'Why, silly,' she said: 'All of them, of course.'
