Do  you know ,I had a man with  the  same  trouble  as  you in here  a few weeks  ago,and  I  gave  him  the  same  advice  as  I'm  going  to  give you. He  was  worried because  he  couldn't pay  his  tailor 's  bills.I told  him  not   to  worry  his  head  about  the  bills  any more.He followed  my  advice  and  when  he  came  to  see  me again two  days  ago ,he told  me  that  he  now  felt quite  all  right  again ."

    "Yes  I know  all  about  that ," answered   the  patient  sadly ,"You  see, I'm  that  man's  tailor."
