　　Our village carpenter, Alf Winn, came one day and made a kitchen cupboard for my wife．He made it just the right size to fill the useless space between the cooker and the door．When I got home that evening, Alf was drinking a cup of tea and making out his bill for the job．

　　My wife said to me, quietly, “That’s his ninth cup of tea today．”But she said, loudly, “It’s a beautiful cupboard, dear, isn’t it?”

　　“I’ll decide about that when I see the bill, ”I said．

　　Alf laughed and gave me his account for the work．I read：

　　One kitchen cupboard 10 Nov．2000

　　Cost of materials(wood)＄17.00

　　Paint and fittings ＄1.50

　　Work, 8 hours(＄1 an hour)＄8.00

　　Total ＄36.50

　　I took out my check book and my pen．I looked at the bill．Alf said, “It’s been a lovely day, hasn’t it?Quite sunny．”

　　“Yes, ”I said．“I’m glad it’s only the 10 of November．”

　　“Me too, ”said, Alf．You wait－it’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month．“Yes, colder and dearer! Kitchen cupboards will be ＄20 dearer on November 30, won’t they, Alf?”

　　Alf looked hard at me for half a minute．Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes?I gave his account back to him．

　　“If it isn’t too much trouble, Alf, ”I said．“Please add it up again．You can forget the date．”

　　I wrote him a check for ＄26.50．He was happy to accept it．
