Because
I
fear
that
I
have
never
quite
formed
the
habit
,
owing
to
my
having
heard
that
a
pipe
exercises
a
desiccating
effect
upon
the
system
.
"
"
Then
allow
me
to
tell
you
that
that
is
mere
prejudice
.
Nay
,
I
would
even
go
so
far
as
to
say
that
to
smoke
a
pipe
is
a
healthier
practice
than
to
take
snuff
.
Among
its
members
our
regiment
numbered
a
lieutenant
--
a
most
excellent
,
well-educated
fellow
--
who
was
simply
INCAPABLE
of
removing
his
pipe
from
his
mouth
,
whether
at
table
or
(
pardon
me
)
in
other
places
.
He
is
now
forty
,
yet
no
man
could
enjoy
better
health
than
he
has
always
done
.
"
Chichikov
replied
that
such
cases
were
common
,
since
nature
comprised
many
things
which
even
the
finest
intellect
could
not
compass
.
"
But
allow
me
to
put
to
you
a
question
,
"
he
went
on
in
a
tone
in
which
there
was
a
strange
--
or
,
at
all
events
,
RATHER
a
strange
--
note
.
For
some
unknown
reason
,
also
,
he
glanced
over
his
shoulder
.
For
some
equally
unknown
reason
,
Manilov
glanced
over
HIS
.
"
How
long
is
it
,
"
inquired
the
guest
,
"
since
you
last
rendered
a
census
return
?
"
"
Oh
,
a
long
,
long
time
.
In
fact
,
I
can
not
remember
when
it
was
.
"
"
And
since
then
have
many
of
your
serfs
died
?
"
"
I
do
not
know
.
To
ascertain
that
I
should
need
to
ask
my
bailiff
.
Footman
,
go
and
call
the
bailiff
.
I
think
he
will
be
at
home
to-day
.
"
Before
long
the
bailiff
made
his
appearance
.
He
was
a
man
of
under
forty
,
clean-shaven
,
clad
in
a
smock
,
and
evidently
used
to
a
quiet
life
,
seeing
that
his
face
was
of
that
puffy
fullness
,
and
the
skin
encircling
his
slit-like
eyes
was
of
that
sallow
tint
,
which
shows
that
the
owner
of
those
features
is
well
acquainted
with
a
feather
bed
.
