Antiquities

A woman browsing though an antique store, sees a cat drinking milk from a saucer. She recognizes the saucer as a rare antique piece. Trying to be clever, she says to the lady running the store, „How much do you want for the cat?“ The woman says, “Ten pounds.“ The buyer goes on, „While I‘m at it, could I give you another pound for the saucer?“ The cat seems to enjoy drinking from it.“ The shopkeeper shakes her head, „Sorry, but so far I‘ve sold nineteen cats from that one saucer.“[PERIOD]
