Chapter III

Chapter III.

One night, as Bill Buddle and his wife sat by the fireside, Bill said: “I was just making up what that free motor tour with the Skidmans cost us. Apart from board and lodgings, and a few other items that we would have had to pay anyway, the tour cost us, roughly eighteen pounds ten.”

“Yes,” replied Mrs. Buddle, “and I was just looking up the railway guide the other day, and I find that if we had travelled by train it would only have cost us seven pounds five.”

Moral: Travel by rail, and put your surplus in the bank.
