His eyes followed the trio of puppies shuffling ringward.
On Nicholas stopping to salute them, Mr Lenville laughed a scornful laugh, and made some general remark touching the natural history of puppies. 'Oh! said Nicholas, looking quietly round, 'are you there? 'Slave! returned Mr Lenville, flourishing his right arm, and approaching Nicholas with a theatrical stride.
The writer has attended at the birth of puppies, not one of whom has shown the remotest sign of having a worm, and the puppies have almost galloped into healthy, happy maturity, protected from all the usual canine ailments by constitutions impervious to disease.

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"!
