Synopsis:
Charlie Ross is a man who disregards the wisdom of commonly spoken proverbs. Superboy decides to teach Ross and lesson, so he allows the man to find a chest full of gold. Charlie then buys a hotel and hosts a banquet for the local townspeople. However, when Superboy shows Ross that the gold he found was fake, the new hotel owner is shocked. His trouble was caused by not heeding the wisdom of several proverbs. The townspeople enjoy and laugh, and Ross sells the hotel back to the original owner.
