Muriel. And did you develope your idea?

Alan. Well—no. Somehow, it didn't quite come off.

THE END.


Bye-bye to Daudet.—We could not stand the presence of two lions in London; so, when Nasrulla Khan appeared on the scene, Alphonse Daudet made his exit. Our, "Beau-bel Poète" sends us his jingle:—

Daudet est parti!

Good-bye my hearty!

"Fortiter in re, suaviter in modo,"

Bon soir Daudet! "allez faire Dodo!"
