One day Mulla went for a Turkish bath. But he was dressed so poorly, that attendants gave little attention to him. He received a scrap of soap, a rag for loin cloth and a used towel.
Still while leaving, pleasantly Nasruddin gave each of the two attendants a gold coin. They wondered if they had treated him even regularly then they would have received a more substantial tip.
Next week Nasruddin was back there again. This time, the attendants gave him royal treatment, gave him embroidered, new towel and a loin cloth of silk. After being massaged and perfumed, while he was leaving, this time he handed each of the attendants the smallest possible copper coin.
"This," said Nasruddin,"is for the last visit. The gold coins are for today."
