I worked for a short time as a cashier at a restaurant a few    61   ago. I also helped clean up the tables when it was especially busy.One night,just before Christmas,I found a large black wallet on the floor near one of the tables.I guessed I should check it to find out  62    was the owner,but I was very busy at the time.Also,I imagined that if there was  63    valuable in the wallet,the owner would be back. Sure enough  64   hour later a man came up to the counter and asked if anyone had found a wallet.I asked him to describe the lost wallet,and after he described it   65   ,I gave him the wallet He expressed his sincere   66   when I handed it to him.He asked me if I had opened it,and when I told him “no”.At once he opened it and showed that it had   67  $1000 in cash.He took out a thirty-dollar bill and handed it to me and I was amazed at this. “A reward for your honesty.”he said and then turned and walked away.

  68   about it later,I began wondering whether I would have been honest if I had known what was in the wallet!I thought that if I had no way to find the owner and no one to claim it,I might keep it.But it also came into my mind that I actually saved  69   Christmas plansby finding and returning the wallet.The good feeling it gave me was worth   70     than anything money could buy.
