Extract from the Preface:
* * * * "Fun has no limits. It is like the human race and face; there is a family likeness among all the species, but they all differ. New combinations produce new varieties. A man who has an eye for fun sees it in everything. * * * There is a work called 'The Horse,' and another 'The Cow,' and 'The Dog,' and so on; why should'nt there be one on 'The Galls?' They are about the most difficult to choose and to manage of any created critter, and yet there aint any dependable directions about pickin' and choosin' of them. Is it any wonder then so many fellows get taken in when they go for to swap hearts with them? Besides; any one can find a gentleman that keeps a livery stable to get him a horse to order, but who can say, 'This is the Gall for your money!'"
