THE SNAIL, THE TORTOISE AND THE TOAD The snail, the gardener's great enemy, marches along evidently on mischief bent, followed by the tortoise who looks as if he thought master snail was after a good thing.

Length 75 feet. 2010 Special ... THE GREEDY TOAD The greedy toad devouring garden worms, in his haste mis-calculates his swallowing powers. He seizes a giant worm and struggles wildly to swallow it. He gulps and gasps and rolls from side to side, trying to cram the monster worm into his mouth with his thumbs, and going through the most laughable contortions in his efforts. Length 75 feet 2011 THE TOADS LUNCHEON Excruciatingly funny and a capital companion to No. 2010. A very comical subject. The toad eyes the various worms with the scrutiny of gourmand, and selecting the plumpest, swallows them with every sign of joy and satisfaction. Length 75 feet,
