We had reason to be thankful at obtaining these supplies, or we should otherwise have sunk down on the snow and perished; for even had we killed our poor dog, as he was nothing but skin and bones his body would not have long sustained us. For two whole days we feasted on tripe de roche, which, when boiled in our kettle, afforded us the only vegetable diet we had for a long time tasted.

"No, no, Dick; there's no danger. Besides, there's Chamu." "The bums could make short work of that parasite." "I'm safe enough. Tom Tripe usually looks in at least once a day when you're gone." "Tom's a good fellow, but once a day . A hundred things might happen. I'd better speak to Tom Tripe about those three bums he'll shift them!" "Don't, Dick! I tell you they keep others away.

She gave Rosalie, who seemed to have lost her head, some orders, and then sat down, "to pretend to eat," as she said, "to keep the doctor company."

The average villager purchases a joint for his "Sunday's dinner," which either lasts the whole week, or is supplemented by scraps of meat, or even a "bone pie"!
