Mr Smith gave his wife ten founds for her birthday – ten pretty pound notes. So the day after her birthday, Mrs Smith went shopping. She queued for a bus, got on, and sat down next to an old lady.

She thought she would have to call the police; but, as she disliked making a fuss – and getting people into trouble, she decided to take back the money from the old lady’s handbag and said nothing more about it.

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