"After the tremendous battles of the present war, even such
actions as Marlborough's victories--Dettingen, Luicelles,
Vittoria, Waterloo, and Inkerman--seem insignificant by
comparison."--_Daily Paper_.
We don't suppose the shades of GEORGE II., WELLINGTON and RAGLAN will
worry much about this annexation of their triumphs, but Lord LAKE'S
ghost will be seriously annoyed at the misspelling of Lincelles.

Extract from a letter received from a well-known wholesale
tobacconist:--
"We think that if you will apply to either of the three
tobacconists, whose names and addresses we append, you will
have no difficulty in obtaining an inadequate supply for your
requirements."
Judging by our own experiences we are jolly well sure of it.
