Wood cutter and his axe / Honesty is the Best Policy / Honest wood cutter

Once there lived a poor woodcutter. But he was very poor. Every day he went out to cut wood in the jungle. One day while he was cutting wood beside a river. Suddenly, his axe slipped out of his hand and fell into deep water. He was helpless. He was crying and praying for his axe. The God of water heard him crying and took pity on him. He came out of water with an axe made of gold. The woodcutter was honest. He did not take the gold axe. The god of water went in to water and brought another axe made of silver. The woodcutter did not accept the silver axe. He was again crying for his own axe. At this time the god of water brought his own axe and gifted him with all the three axes.
