Mr. Jones liked to be comfortable, so when he gets into a train he always puts his suitcase on the seat beside him and pretends that it belonged to another passenger who had gone to buy something in the station.
One day he did this when the train was very crowded. Other passengers came and sat in the train in all the other seats except the one which his suitcase was lying on. Then an old gentleman arrived, looked at Mr. Jones’ case and said, “Is this somebody’s seat?” “Yes, “Answered Mr. Jones. “ A friend of mine is travelling with me, he has gone to buy some cigarettes, he will return soon.” “All right,” said the old gentleman. “I’ll sit here until your friend comes back. And then I’ll stand somewhere.” And he sat down after he had put the suitcase on the shelf above him.
Several minutes passed, the whistle blew, and the train began to move. The old gentleman jumped up suddenly and said, “I’m very sorry but your friend seems to have missed the train.
