The Mischievous Dog.

A Dog used to run up quietly to the heels of those he met, and to bitethem without notice. His master sometimes suspended a bell about hisneck, that he might give notice of his presence wherever he went, andsometimes he fastened a chain about his neck, to which was attached aheavy clog, so that he could not be so quick at biting people's heels.

The Dog grew proud of his bell and clog, and went with them all over themarket-place. An old hound said to him: "Why do you make such anexhibition of yourself? That bell and clog that you carry are not,believe me, orders of merit, but, on the contrary, marks of disgrace, apublic notice to all men to avoid you as an ill-mannered dog."

Those who achieve notoriety often mistake it for fame.
