Aesop's Fables Edited by Charles Stikeney.

THE OXEN AND THE AXLE-TREES

A Heavy wagon was being dragged along a
country lane by a team of Oxen.
The Axle-trees groaned and creaked ter-
ribly, when the Oxen, turning round, thus
addressed the wheels: "Hullo there, are you
not making unnecessary noise? We are bear-
ing the labor, not you. If we do not cry
out, surely you should not."
They who suffer most often make the least
sign.
