Punch,  39 (1860), 24.

Can Toads Live Without Air?

Anon

Genre:

News-Commentary, Drollery

Subjects:

Zoology, Physiology, Health, Pollution, Nutrition


    Claiming that this subject is now 'occupying the scientific', reports Mr Punch's observation that a party of French officials recently travelled a great distance in a smoke-filled railway carriage. Concludes that those who eat toads can clearly survive without air.
