Edison was a heavy smoker, and used to keep a number of boxes of cigar in his office. First one worker, then another, would enter the room and ask Edison some unimportant things. When they left his office, they would put their hands in one of the boxes and take three or four cigars. When Edison knew that, he called on the cigar seller and asked the man to make some “fake cigars”. The seller made some cigars filled with old pieces of cloth, leaves and tea, and sent them to Edison. From then on, nobody came to Edison’s office.
Then one day, Edison called at the store again, and asked the seller if he had forgotten to send the fake cigars. “I sent ten boxes of the worst cigars I could make two months ago,” replied the seller, “Haven’t your men finished them yet?” Edison found out that he had finished the worst cigars by himself!
