End-of-day Market Roundup

        JOKE OF THE DAY

GET A SECOND OPINION
A man went to see his doctor because
he was suffering from a miserable cold.
His doctor prescribed some pills,
but they didn't help.

On his next visit the doctor gave him a shot,
but that didn't doany good.

On his third visit the doctor told the man
to go home and take a hot bath.

As soon as he was finished bathing
he was to throw open all the windows

and stand in the draft.

"But doc," protested the patient,
"if I do that, I'll get pneumonia."

"I know," said his physician.
"But I can cure pneumonia."
