In <strong>the</strong> morning when I was dressing, Mo<strong>the</strong>r came into my room and said, “Put on two<br />
sweaters, Mike. It’s very cold today.” “Oh, no, Mo<strong>the</strong>r. You know it’s so warm in school.”<br />
When I went out into <strong>the</strong> street it was so cold that I was sorry I hadn’t put on two sweaters.<br />
Then I ... that <strong>the</strong> warmth of our body depends on our moving around. I started running and<br />

HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY<br />
Once a poor woodman went to <strong>the</strong> wood which was on <strong>the</strong> bank of a deep river. He was<br />
working all day long and got tired. Suddenly his axe slipped from his hand and ... into <strong>the</strong><br />
river.<br />
“Oh, I have lost my axe,” he cried. “What shall I do?”<br />
Mercury heard <strong>the</strong> poor man’s cries and ... before him.<br />
“What’s <strong>the</strong> matter, poor woodman?” he asked.<br />
The woodman told his story and Mercury promised to ... him. He dived into <strong>the</strong> river and<br />
brought up a golden axe.<br />
“Is it <strong>you</strong>rs?” he asked.<br />
“No, that is not mine,” answered <strong>the</strong> woodman.<br />
So Mercury dived again and this time brought up <strong>the</strong> woodman’s axe.<br />
“That is my axe,” cried <strong>the</strong> man.<br />
Mercury was so pleased with <strong>the</strong> woodman’s honesty that he made him a present of <strong>the</strong><br />
golden axe.<br />
The woodman told his friends all about it and one of <strong>the</strong>m decided to ... his luck. So he<br />
went to <strong>the</strong> same place, ... his axe into <strong>the</strong> water and cried, “Oh, I have lost my axe. What shall<br />
I do?”<br />
Mercury appeared as before and when <strong>the</strong> man told him his story he dived into <strong>the</strong> river<br />
and brought up a golden axe.<br />
“Is it <strong>you</strong>rs?” he asked.<br />
“Yes, it is”, said <strong>the</strong> second woodman.<br />
“You are not telling me <strong>the</strong> truth,” said Mercury, “that’s why <strong>you</strong> will never have <strong>you</strong>r<br />
axe.”<br />
