Sometime ago, when ice cream was not so expensive, a ten year old boy went to an ice-cream parlour. While sitting at the table:
Boy : How much does a Sundae cost?
Waitress: 50 cents
The boy took out his money from the pocket and began counting it.
Boy : Well, how much does a simple ice cream cost?
There were other waiting to be served, so the waitress began to get a little impatient.
Waitress: 35 cents!
The boy counted his money again.
Boy : Please get me a simple ice cream.
The waitress served him the ice-cream and his bill. The boy ate his ice-cream, paid his bill at the counter and left. When the waitress went to clean the table, she began to cry... for there, in the corner of the plate, were 15 cents... her tip. The boy took a simple ice-cream instead of a sundae so that he could leave a tip for her.
