Corp. Then I could do nothing, for thoughts are not seen, and cannot be brought up in evidence.

At the Club.—A. Have you seen our friend Bortoletti lately?

B. Yes.

A. Then you must have noticed that he dyes his hair in front, and has forgotten to do so at the back.

B. Well—that only proves that if he deceives himself he has no wish to deceive others.

Mistress. Rosa, did you count the silver last night?

Rosa. Yes’m—there’s a fork and spoon wanting.
