Mr. Smith works in a post office. He's strict in his work and gets on well with his workmates. So he has a lot of friends. But his wife whose father is the head of the post office never does any housework. She makes her husband give all his wages(工資) to her and spends much money on the beautiful clothes and delicious foods. The poor man has to save everything. He always wears the old clothes and eats the leftovers(殘湯剩飯). He's getting thinner but his wife is getting fatter.

　　“What's the matter, madam?”asked a doctor.
