An English traveler spent a few weeks in Sweden. When he was about to return home, he found he had only enough money to get a ticket back to England. Thinking the matter over, he decided that he could get home without eating anything as it was only a two-day’s voyage. So he bought a ticket with that little money he had and went on board the ship.
He closed his ears to the sound of the lunch bell, and when dinner time came, he refused to go down to the place where people had their dinner, saying that he did not feel well.
The following day he did not get up until breakfast was over, pretending that he had overslept. At lunch time, too, he kept out of the way. By the time of the dinner, however, he became so hungry that he could even have eaten paper.
"I can’t stand this any longer", he said to himself. "I must have something to eat". At dinner table he ate everything put in front of him. When he was quite satisfied, he felt stronger and at once went to see the waiter. "Bring me the bill", he said to the waiter.
"The bill?" said the waiter in surprise.
"Yes", answered the traveler.
"There isn’t any bill here", said the waiter, "On this ship, meals are already included in the ticket".
