"PUTTING HIS FOOT IN IT."


STROLL IN THE ZOO. SUNDAY AFTERNOON.


THE MESSAGE FROM MARS.

(Per favour of Mr. Punch.)

Mr. Punch. So you've not been signalling to Mother Earth, after all, my noble Warrior?

Mars (with a wink). What do you think? Why should I dig canals 100 miles wide, and 2,000 miles long, or build bonfires as big as Scotland, when I can always communicate what I may have to say through you?
