+ Death looked at the sacks.
+
+ It was a strange but demonstrable fact that the sacks of
+ toys carried by the Hogfather, no matter what they
+ really contained, always appeared to have sticking out
+ of the top a teddy bear, a toy soldier in the kind of
+ colorful uniform that would stand out in a disco, a
+ drum and a red-and-white candy cane. The actual
+ contents always turned out to be something a bit
+ garish and costing $5.99.
+
+ Death had investigated one or two. There had been a
+ Real Agatean Ninja, for example, with Fearsome
+ Death Grip, and a Captain Carrot One-Man Night
+ Watch with a complete wardrobe of toy weapons, each
+ of which cost as much as the original wooden doll in
+ the first place.
+
+ Mind you, the stuff for the girls was just as
+ depressing. It seemed to be nearly all horses. Most of
+ them were grinning. Horses, Death felt, shouldn't grin.
+
+ Any horse that was grinning was planning something.
