A gentleman, who had three children, was very sick and knew that he would soon die. He did not intend to share his goods and land so he proposed a challenge “the smartest son, who with just a coin, manages to fill my entire room, will have everything that belongs to me. The eldest son and the middle son soon thought of a more superficial way to fill his father's room, one bought bags full of feathers and the other bags full of straw, the youngest went further and thought of buying a candle and turn it on, because then the light would fill the whole room, thus making the youngest son win the challenge.
