A Dumb Wife

Once there was a man whose wife was dumb, and this мейд him very sad because he loved her very much. After some time he went to see a doctor and said. Can you make my wife speak? Perhaps I can, said the doctor, the operation is difficult, but if I try, I'll do my best. Of course, you may try, said the husband, I'll bring her tomorrow.

The next day the doctor мейд the operation and the dumb wife began to speak. She spoke so much and so loudly that in a few hours her husband ran back to the doctor and said, Can you make my wife dumb again? No, said the doctor, there are many ways to make a dumb woman speak, but no ways to make a woman stop talking. What must I do? said the man, I shall soon die if I have to listen to her all day long. Well, said the doctor, I can't make her dumb, but I can make you deaf and you will not have to listen to her. Very well, said the man, you may do so. It will be better than the other way.
