Long time ago, there were a good woodcutter and a bad one. The good woodcutter went to the river bank
to chop the wood, living a pragmatic life with his wife. On the contrary, the bad woodcutter was quite a
opportunistic guy, never working hard. One day, something marvelous happened. The good woodcutter
walked slowly to the river bank, doing his daily work diligently.
The good woodcutter happily told his wife what happened today, not knowing the bad one was hiding behind
the tree and heard everything. The bad woodcutter came to the place where the good one did his daily job
and imitated him to throw the axe into the river like it fell accidentally.

這個故事的名稱是"HONEST WOODCUTTER"。是來自於印度的一個童話故事，全文是 :
One day a woodcutter was cutting wood on the bank of a river. Suddenly his axe fell into the water.
The poor woodcutter did not know how to swim. So he prayed to the river God.
The river God heard his prayer and appeared before him. "What is the matter, my good man?" he asked.
"Help me," said the woodcutter. I am poor and I lost my axe. If I don't get my axe back, I will starve to death.
"Very well", answered the God. "You shall have your axe." God dived into the river and brought up an axe
made of gold.
"Is this your axe, my good man?" he said.
"No," said the woodcutter. "That is not my axe."
Then God brought out a silver axe. The woodcutter again said that it was not his axe. The third time he brought
up the axe which woodcutter had lost.
The woodcutter was very happy. "This is my axe."
God was pleased with woodcutter's honesty. He gave the gold axe and the silver axe also to him.
Speak the truth and you will be happy.
