The Mill’s Lesson

"I NOTICE," said the stream to the mill, "that you grind beans as well and as cheerfully as fine wheat."
"Certainly," clacked the mill; "what am I for but to grind? and as long as I work, what does it signify to me what the work is? My business is to serve my master, and I am not a whit more useful when I turn out fine flour than when I make the coarsest meal. My honor is not in doing fine work, but performing any that comes as well as I can."
