The next day while the scholar was wiping the table, he happened to write on the table top a "one" with his wet rag to quiz his son. The boy couldn't read it at all.

This is the word "one" I taught you to read yesterday, now isn't it? said the scholar.

Oh! But how big it has become overnight! said the boy in surprise.
