LOVING SPOUSE

It was a terrible night, blowing cold and rain in a most frightful manner. The streets were deserted and the local baker was just about to close up shop when a little Jewish man slipped through the door. He carried an umbrella blown inside out and was bundled in two sweaters and a thick coat. But even so he still looked wet and bedraggled. As he unwound his scarf he said to the baker:

“May I have two bagels to go, please?”

The baker said in astonishment:

“Two bagels? Nothing more?”

“That’s right,” – answered the little man. “One for me and one for Bernice.”

Bernice is your wife?” – asked the baker.

“What do you think,” – snapped the little man, – “my mother would send me out on a night like this?”
