Madras To Mysore

The manager received a leave application from a staff member:
" Due to Madras Eye I am unable to attend office for 3 days"

After a few days the same staff sent the following leave letter:
" Due to Mysore Throat I am unable to attend office for 2 days"

Manager was totally baffled. Madras eye is well-known.....But what is Mysore throat?

He google searched but no use.

He was eagerly waiting for the staff to come and clarify.
The staff laughed and said:
" Sorry Sir, it is 'My sore throat'.
A space was omitted"
