Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Christmas Books and Stories, Vol. 3
Mr. Mopes is vain Of the life he leads, some do say, replied the Landlord, as another concession.
A slothful, unsavory, nasty reversal Of the laws of human nature, said the Traveller and for the sake of god's working world and its wholesome ness, both moral and physical, I would put the thing on the treadmill (if I had my way) wherever I found it; whether on a pillar, or in a hole; whether on Tom Tiddler's ground, or the Pope Of Rome's ground or a Hindoo fakeer's ground, or any other ground.
