BLUDGEON WORK.

For this style of reviewing a separate department has been established,

under the joint management of three well-known literary failures,

Messrs. SCRIBLEY, FIBLEY AND GLIBLEY. By a careful imitation of the

worst models, and by assiduously cultivating their own natural

coarseness, the managers anticipate very remarkable results. Style will

be no object, but every worker in this department will be expected to

provide his own rhinoceros hide and stock of allusions to RABELAIS. All

holders of less than three shares will come under the operation of this

department. The Company intend shortly, however, to issue £10

debentures, the owners of which will be permitted once a year to ballot

for the privilege of reviewing the book of one of their friends.
