"Excellent fooling. Teems with classical chaff and latter-day badinage. The chief attraction is the uninterrupted flow of exuberant animal spirits which permeates its pages. Mr. Townsend's illustrations to this quaint work are decidedly funny."—Daily Telegraph.

"Full of clever and whimsical conceits. Will best be appreciated by Londoners, and welcome to the general reader."—Morning Post.

"Not at all a bad specimen of the New Humour."—Truth.

"The newest New Humour."—National Observer.

"Very clever. Mr. Connell's next volume is sure to be good."—Black and White.

"A fantastic and amusing work. Mr. Connell is a humorist, and a humorist of a distinctly original type. We have laughed heartily over this book. The whole is so piquantly flavoured and seasoned. Stories of the after-dinner type, audacious occasionally, but never coarse, and always redeemed by a pretty and nimble art. The author is a good fellow with his quips, and jests, and cranks; and nobody will regret making his acquaintance."—Weekly Sun.
