            Mr. Jones picked the wrong umbrella in a hotel, and the owner called his attention to it.  Embarrassed, he offered his apologies and went on his way.

            The incident served to remind him that he had promised to buy both his wife and his daughter an umbrella, so he purchased them one each, along with one for himself.

            Just as he was getting in the car with three umbrellas, he saw the man whose umbrella he had accidentally taken, eyeing him suspiciously.

            The man said, “I see you had a good day after all.”
