Tit for Tat
A boy bought a twopenny loaf at the baker's. It struck
him that it was much smaller, than usual, so he said to the
baker: "I don't believe the loaf is the right weight." "Oh,
nevert mind,"- answered the baker. "You'll have the less to
carry." "Quite right,"- said the boy and put 3 halfpence on the
counter. Just as he was leaving the shop the baker called out
to him: "I say, Tommy! You haven't given me the price of the
loaf!" "Oh, never mind,"- said the boy, "You'll have the less
to count."
