Question

A thief on the bus

Mr. Smith gave his wife ten pounds for her birthday – ten pretty pound notes. So

two days later Mrs. Smith went shopping. She looked out for a taxi but as one did not

appear soon, she joined a long line at the bus stop. When the bus arrived, she got on and

sat down next to an old lady. After a while, she noticed that the old lady`s handbag was

open. Inside it, she saw a roll of pound notes exactly like the ones her husband had

given her. So she quickly looked into her own bag – the notes had gone! Mr. Smith was

sure that the old lady had stolen them. She thought she would have to call the police,

but, as she disliked making a scene and getting people into trouble, she decided to take

back the money from the old lady`s handbag and say nothing more about it. She looked

round the bus to make sure nobody was watching, then she carefully put her hand into

the old lady`s bag, took the notes and put them in her own bag.

When she got home that evening, she showed her husband the beautiful hat she had

bought.

“How did you pay it, dear?” he asked.

“With the money you gave me for my birthday, of course,” she replied.

“Oh? What`s that then?” he asked, as he pointed to a roll of one pound notes on the

table.

Mrs. Smith looked in astonishment at the money and fell to the floor in a faint. She fainted
