The Madman who Sold Wisdom.

A Madman once set himself up in the market place, and with loud criesannounced that he would sell Wisdom. The people at once crowded abouthim, and some gave him gold for his wares, but they each got only a blowon the ear and a bunch of thread, and were well laughed at by theircompanions. One of them, however, took it more seriously than theothers, and asked a wise sage what it meant. "It means," said the sage,"that if one would not be hurt by a Madman, he must put a bunch ofthread over his ears." So the Madman was really selling Wisdom.
