IN MEMORIAM.
[Baron Mundy, the founder of the valuable Vienna Voluntary Sanitary Ambulance Society, mighty foe of disease and munificent dispenser of charity, shot himself on Thursday, August 23, on the banks of the Danube, at the advanced age of 72.]
Great sanitary leader and reformer, Disease's scourge and potent pest-house stormer; Successful foe of cholera aforetime, Perfecter of field-ambulance in war-time; Dispenser of a fortune in large charity; Vale! Such heroes are in sooth a rarity. Alas, that you in death should shock Dame Grundy! That we should sigh "Sic transit gloria Mundy!"
A Clothes Division (of Opinion).—It is said that Woman cannot afford to alter her style of dress, since her limbs are "all wrong." Clear, therefore, that however much Woman's Wrongs need redressing, All-Wrong Women don't! [103]
