A donkey had to carry salt every day. He carried heavy loads of salt across the river. One day, he lost balance and the bag got wet. Lots of salt was dissolved and the donkey's load lightened. The donkey was very happy and decided to try this the next day too. But the next day, the trader loaded him with loads of cotton. When the donkey dipped it into the river. his load became heavier.
