It was Sunday .The train was crowded. A
gentleman was trying to look for a place. In one of the cars he saw a vacant
seat. But a small suitcase was lying on it and a young man was sitting next
to it .
"Is this seat taken ?" asked the
gentleman .
"Yes ,it's my friend's ." answered
the young man ."He's just coming ---this is his suitcase."
"Well." said the gentleman , "
I'll sit here till he comes. " Five minutes later the train started ,but
nobody came .
"Your friend is late . "said the
gentleman ."He has missed his train, but he need not lose his
suitcase." And with these words he took the suitcase and threw it out of
the window .
The young man got up and tried to catch the
suitcase ,but it was too late .It was a good lesson to him .---"It's
impolite to take a second seat just for being more comfortable for oneself
."
