    A certain doctor was called into a barber's shop where Same the porter lay unconscious. The doctor worked on him for a long time and finally revived the man. "How did you happen to drink that stuff. Did not you see the label on the bottle. It said "Poisin" said the doctor. "Yes doctor" said Sam but I did not believe it. "Why" said the doctor. Because said Sam "right under it said Lye."
