Once there lived three young men in a town who lived by their wits. The three were good friends and were always on the lookout for entertainment. One of them, who was a short person, was exceptionally clever. They often played tricks on people and always had a good fun.

One day they went to a hotel and played a trick on the waiter. They had eggs, bread, fruit and coffee for breakfast. Then the bulky one said, “Bring the bill.” When the waiter brought the bill, each of them wanted to pay it. The short man said, “It is my turn today. I’ll foot the bill.” “No,” said the lanky one, “You paid for the dinner. Let me pay now.” The bulky one chipped in, “O smart fellows! You want to take all credit. I won’t let this happen. I insist that no one else but I will pay the bill.” The waiter as well as the other customers were surprised.

As the three youngmen were about to quarrel, the short man suggested a plan. He said to the waiter, “We shall blindfold you. Try to catch one of us. That one will pay the bill. Isn’t it simple?”

The waiter agreed to be blindfolded. He tried to catch them, but each of them slipped away. Just then the owner of the hotel came in. The waiter caught him and said, “Look! I have caught you. Now pay the bill.” The owner said, “O fool! What are you doing? Have you lost sense?” On being scolded the waiter released the owner and removed the cloth over his eyes. He looked around for the three youngmen. But it was too late now. The trick had worked.

Moral: Beware of sweet words.
