We are very sorry to learn that Captain A.W. LLOYD, Royal Fusiliers, who for some time illustrated the Essence of Parliament, has been badly wounded in East Africa. We join his many friends in England and South Africa in sending him our sincerest hopes for his restoration to health and strength.


"HE-WHO-MUST-BE-OBEYED."

SIR ARTHUR YAPP, Sir ARTHUR YAPP,

He is a formidable chap;

He says the best of this year's fashions

Is to obey his rule for rations.

To every man and every maid

Of every sort of social grade,

Sir ARTHUR YAPP, Sir ARTHUR YAPP.
