The strip was around for a very long time. I suppose that it may have run out of steam after some number of years, maybe after the middle of the 1960s. That it has outlasted its creator by so many years, I attribute to the human aversion to novelty at breakfast.

Even Doonesbury, which evolved over the years as the characters aged, was IMO pretty much ready to call it a day when the daily strip ended. But, yeah, most of the standard daily comic strips that have been recycling basically the same material for decades are pretty much there to satisfy a morning habit.
