"Doctor's Bag" joke

Mrs. Jones was suddenly ill in the night, and a new doctor was called. After a look at the patient, the doctor stepped outside the sick room to ask Mr. Jones for a corkscrew. Given the tool, he disappeared but several minutes later was back demanding a pair of pliers. Again, he disappeared into the room of the moaning patient, only to call out again, "A chisel and a mallet, quickly."

Mr. Jones could stand it no longer. "What is her trouble, doctor?"

"Don't know yet," was the reply. "Can't get my instrument bag open."
