TRIALS OF A NOVICE

Extract from Diary.—"Wednesday. Went for a spin or trip, or whatever it's called, on Bowlines' new racing yacht. Felt very nervous when we turned the corners; nearly fell overboard while I was trying to balance the thing; thought we should have been drowned. B. said it was a wonder we weren't—thanks to me! Had a few words with B. Mem.—Never again!"

[N.B.—B. says the same.
