One day the weaver had need of some honey. When he was about to go to the market to buy honey, his wife said "There is no need to buy honey. I will show you a large honey-comb." She took the weaver to the Jaal tree thicket and pointed at the honey-comb. The weaver 卐 saw the honey-comb and also carefully inspected the solitary place. With the help of his Autpattiki Buddhi he took no time to understand that there was no reason for her wife to come to this forlorn place and be familiar with it, but that she was in love with some person and this was there secret meeting place.

2. The Ring-In a town there lived a priest who was famous as a truthful and upright person. Hearing of his fame, once a labour came

When the king heard the story of the labour he summoned the priest. When the priest came to the court, the king asked "Great Brahman, why don't you return the deposit this man
made with you ?" The priest offered the same reply to the king
"Sire! I don't even know this person, neither do I have any deposit from him."
When the priest left, the king asked the labour to tell his story in detail. Collecting his wits the labour told in details the size and colour of his bag; the date on which he had deposited it with the priest; and even where the priest had kept it after accepting.
A few days later finding an opportune moment, the king called the priest for a game of chess. While the priest was engrossed in the
