The Man And The Wooden God
The Man And The Wooden God
In the old days men used to worship stocks and stones and idols, and
prayed to them to give them luck. It happened that a Man had often prayed to a
wooden idol he had received from his father, but his luck never seemed to
change. He prayed and he prayed, but still he remained as unlucky as ever. One
day in the greatest rage he went to the Wooden God, and with one blow swept it
down from its pedestal. The idol broke in two, and what did he see? An immense
number of coins flying all over the place.
