Everyone has heard of Sherlock Holmes. The author of all the Sherlock Holmes stories was Arthur Conan Doyle. Once Sir Arthur was in Paris. He was going from the railroad station to the hotel where he decided to spend the night. He arrived at the hotel. He got out of the taxi and paid the taxi-driver. 'Thank you very much, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle," said the taxi-driver smiling. "Oh, do you know who I am'?" said Sir Arthur. He was very surprised. "Well, sir, I read in the newspaper yesterday that you were coming to Paris from the south of France. The train on which you arrived came from the south of France. I also noticed that your hair was cut by a barber in the south of France. Your clothes, and especially your hat, told me that you were English. I put all together and realized at once that you were Sir Arthur Conan Doyle." "That is wonderful," said Sir Arthur. "With so few facts you were really able to know me?"

"Of course," said the taxi-driver, "your name is on both your travelling bags. That also helped."
