The suggestive and peculiarly fitting title of this attractive volume faithfully describes the character of its contents, as it is packed full of fun from the beginning to the end. It is composed of three popular titles, TALKS, by the celebrated minstrel, George Thatcher, containing all his monologues, songs, witty sayings, etc.; JOKES, by the popular humorist, Henry Firth Wood, comprising a multitude of bright and bristling comicalities; and CONUNDRUMS, by Dean Rivers, embracing the latest and best in the line of Conundrums, Riddles, and Puzzles, and including also a number of most complex Arithmetical Puzzles. The different authors and compilers are deservedly popular and prominent as representing the keenest and freshest in everything that is bright and witty, and are a sure guaranty that the volume possesses all the merit that is claimed for it.
The collection as a whole will afford excellent amusement for the fireside, will prove a splendid store-house from which to draw material for anecdote or illustration, is valuable for public reading or entertainment, and will be found enjoyable reading for private perusal, while as a cure for an attack of the blues it is unfailing.
