Once upon a time there was a poor wood-cutter. He went to cut wood everyday. One day he was cutting wood near a river. Suddenly his axe fell into the river. He began to weep and cried for help. The god of water appeared. He brought a golden axe. The woodcutter refused to take it. Then the god brought a silver axe. He asked the woodcutter to take the axe. He refused to take it also because it was not his axe. Then the god of water brought his real axe. He asked the woodcutter to take it. He accepted it. The god was pleased with his honesty. He gave all the three axes to the woodcutter. He was very happy and thanked the god.
Moral : Honesty is the best policy.
