Henry Smith taught science at the City School. Once he went to a bookstore and bought some books, most of which were expensive ones. He left them in his car in a quiet street. Then he went and bought some other things at other shops. At 6 o’clock he came back to the car. One window was open, and the books were gone! Henry drove back to his home on Lake Street. That night he wrote a letter to a newspaper. The next day he went to the police. On Friday people read an advertisement in the newspaper:
BOOK WANTED
Have you any books that you no longer want? I buy old and modern books. Open all day on Saturdays. Henry Smith, 18 Lake Street.
Henry stayed at home on Saturday. His first visitor came at 8 o’clock. Henry took him to the kitchen. At half past nine, another man arrived. He had a bag under his arm.
"Mr. Smith?" the man asked.
"That’s right," Henry said. "Can I help you?"
"I have some good books. You buy books, don’t you?"
"Yes, bring them in. I’ll have a look at them."
Soon the books were on the dining-table. "Come in now," Henry called out, "and bring the list."
A policeman came into the dining-room. He read the rifles on the books and then those on the list in his hand. They were the same.
"Come with me, sir," the policeman said to the man.
