So, my dear young girls, take my advice, and commence
Diaries. And remember I shall be very glad to answer any questions on
the subject.

JOKIM'S LATEST LITTLE JOKE.
(_BY A MANY TIMES DISAPPOINTED INCOME-TAX PAYER._)
It is out at last, but it falls very flat;
Such a very big "bag," such a very small "cat"!
Popularity Budget? It can't be called _that_!
The Budget that was to have been such "good biz,"
And have caused the Election to go with a "whizz,"
Fizzles out in--reducing the duty on Fizz!
Ah, JOKIM, my joker, you've hardly the knack
Of holding the Bag, so we'll give you "_the Sack_!"

"MEET IT IS I SET IT DOWN."--"Mr. J. McN. WHISTLER," it was remarked
by one of his visitors on the closing day of his recent Exhibition,
"has in his Catalogue put down all unfavourable criticisms." How, in
this respect, would all of us like to imitate the Eccentric Knight of
the Order of the Butterfly, and put down all adverse criticism.
