Among the senators in Paris Is

A few days ago two persons entered,
one of whom complained of pains in
the chest.
"Undress," said the medical senator,
and few minutes later he was busy
examining the heart and lungs of his
visitor.
Wanting to save time, he called to
the other man who was waiting:
"You had better undress in the
meantime"
The man began to say something,
but the senator cut him short.
