　　Robert is a university student. He likes to have fun. But having fun was expensive, so he wasrapidly running out of money. There was nothing to do to try to call his mother for help.

　　“Hi, Mom. I certainly miss you and Dad. I…uh…got a big surprise this week in my physics course. We have to buy two new textbooks. I’m going to need $100.”

　　“I understand,” said his mother, “I’ll send you the money right away. You left your calculusbook here when you were home two weeks ago. Shall I mail that at the same time?”

　　“Oh, yeah. Thanks,” Robert said.

　　Robert’s mother made up a parcel with the calculus book and two checks, and mailed it to Robert that very day. When she returned from the post office, her husband was waiting for her.

　　“Well, how much did you give the boy this time?” asked Dad.

　　“I send two checks: one for $100 and the other for $1, 100,” answered Mom.

　　“You’re outing your mind,” yelled Dad, “That’s $1,100. He’ll just spend that in a couple of weeks. He’s never going to learn the value of money that way.”

　　“Don’t worry, honey,” Mom said, “I taped the $100 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one between the pages in Charper13!”
