“Well, my advice to you is to take your friends over there to-night and I suspect you’ll have an experience that will interest you.”
“What is it?” demanded John, interested at once.
“I’m not sure just what it will be so I cannot explain, but if you want to see your friends stirred up you take them over there after you have had your dinner to-night. By the way, do you think there will be any reward for finding this car?”
“Knowing Mr. Sanders as I do, I’m quite sure there will be.”
“I have brought the bill in my pocket for the repairs at the garage.”
“How much did they charge?”
“Fifty-three cents and the man apologized for the size of his bill. That’s one of the things they haven’t learned up here in the country yet.”
“I have never found any one who didn’t know how to charge,” laughed John.
“Well, this man didn’t seem to know much about it, so I paid his bill and had just twenty-three cents left, as I told you. I think if Mr. Sanders wants to pay that bill I shall let him.”
“I certainly know he will,” said John. “I know he will insist upon it anyway for he’s that kind of a man.”
