Rudyard Kipling's collection of short stories is titled The Day's Work. The Day's Work does not contain any poetry in between the several stories, unlike many of Kipling's previous collections. The general subject is one of labour and struggle, whether it is constructing a bridge, combating a famine, or watching horses give it their all to win a polo match. However, the literary style is frequently lighthearted, if not outright impish. He enjoys mimicking accents or making up conversations between horses, ponies, and even trains. On the farm, salting time is on a Sunday afternoon, and we take care of the animals as usual. The red oxen, Dave and Pete, are attended to first; they remain in the home meadow in preparation for labour on Monday. The cows follow, followed by Pan the calf, who survived due to his demeanour. The horses, which are dispersed throughout the Back Pasture's 70 acres, come last. Last month, the Dimbula, a brand-new steamer, docked in the High and Narrow Seas with cargo intended for New York. Since the days of Lieutenant-Fireworker Humphrey Chinn of the Bombay European Regiment, who aided with the conquest of Seringapatam in 1799, there has always been at least one representative of the Devonshire Chinns in or close to India.

Rudyard Kipling's book Stalky & Co. is about young men attending a British boarding school. Three young main characters in this collection of school stories have a smug, cynical attitude toward authority and patriotism. After the stories were featured in periodicals for the preceding two years, it was first published in 1899. Part I of ""Slaves of the Lamp."" Mr. King interrupts the three boys while they are practicing a pantomime of ""Aladdin"" because he has discovered jokes Beetle wrote about him. When the younger child who taught King the poems is there, he drags Beetle into his study and corrects him. Stalky gets an intoxicated carter to throw stones at King by shooting him with a catapult. In ""An Unsavoury Interlude,"" Mr. King makes fun of Beetle for once being frightened to take a bath in the ocean, which causes the boys from Mr. King's house to call the boys from Mr. Prout's house ""stinkers.""Many lads take part eagerly in order to train for their future professions as military officers. But when a member of parliament is asked to speak at the school on ""patriotism,"" he angers the lads by raising the Union Jack. The cadet corps left the next morning under Stalky's leadership. The majority of Kipling's characters, who are now about thirty, are soldiers or civil officials in India.
