Cheap Conscience
The Canadian Postmaster-General has just received ten cents—about sixpence—as conscience money from a man who admits having filled his fountain pen at a post office in Ontario, at least once a week for the past twenty years. The note is signed “Honest Scot,” and adds: “I sent only ten cents because the ink was such poor stuff!”
