A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had 
shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no 
secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe 
box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never 
to open or ask her about.
   For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one 
day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would 
not recover.
   In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down 
the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside.
   She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box.
   When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of 
money totaling $95,000.
   He asked her about the contents. 'When we were to be married,' she 
said, ' my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was to 
never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you, I should 
just keep quiet and crochet a doll.'
   The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only 
two precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him 
two times in all those years of living and loving.  He almost burst 
with happiness.
   'Honey,' he said, 'that explains the doll, but what about all of this
money?
   Where did it come from?''Oh,' she said, 'that's the money I made from selling the dolls.'
