Apples on Halloween

This past Halloween my brother had an unexpected guest, an old friend from high school. So instead of being home to greet trick-or-treaters, as he had planned to do, he went out with his old friend.

He hated to leave the house unattended and not give the numerous neighbor children any treats. So he set the bag of apples, that he had intended to give out, on the porch with a sign that read - "Take some, Leave some."

Later that night, when he got home, there were three times as many apples as when he had left.
