From a Girl Guides' report:--

"The thanks of the Association are due to the following ladies who

have resigned...."

"Sir George Newman and Mr. Philip Snowden have resigned their

membership of the Central Control Board" (Liquor Traffic).

"Caruso has sung at 550 performances."--_Evening Paper_.

[Illustration: _Lady (who has called on two successive Wednesdays, the

fourth and fifth of the month, and has been told each time that Lady

Smith-Robinson is not at home)._ "BUT I THOUGHT HER LADYSHIP WAS AT

HOME ON ALTERNATE WEDNESDAYS?"

_Parlourmaid (with dignity)._ "NO, MADAM. HER LADYSHIP IS AT HOME ON

THE FIRST AND THIRD WEDNESDAYS IN THE MONTH; BUT WHEN THERE IS A FIFTH

WEDNESDAY THAT IS TO _OUR_ ADVANTAGE."]
