Not a New Problem



The cartoon, below, is from the January 24, 1906 edition of Punch (page 67).

The text is a bit muddy, but it says:

Proud Producer: ”There’s an animal for you! Seventeen Championship Cups and two hundred gold medals!

Eh? ‘ What is it?”

Why, the latest development of the Bull-dog, to be sure.

Eh? “not like a Bull-dog?“

Why, of course not! Where would be your development if it were? Why, Sir, in three more generations we’ll have him tailless, earless, toothless, and webfooted!”
