    Finally he went into a shop and asked the shopkeeper, "How much are these cakes you have here?"

    "Five cents each," was the answer.

    "I'll give you ten cents for three of them."

    "All right," said the shopkeeper.

    So the young man took three cakes and then began looking at some other things in the shop."How much is this wine?" he asked.

    "Ten cents a glass."

    "Well, I'm more thirsty than hungry. Please take back the cakes and give me a glass of wine."
