- One day a Department Inspector was going along a road in his motor car. He saw a servant working in a garden inside a wall. He said to the servant "What crop is that".

- Once there lived a man who was out every night without light. One night he saw a guard coming towards him. He took the donkey from the car and tied him to the heels. He began pulling the car himself. When the guard asked him where was his light he said "go and speak to the driver".
