MUM'S THE WORD!

[Mr. CHAMBERLAIN presided lately at a Deaf-and-Dumb Meeting.]

_They_ gave me no rude flood of gibes to stem.

True, they were deaf, and so could not hear _me_,

But they were dumb, so _I_ could not hear them!

MADAME ROLAND RE-EDITED (_from a sham-Japanese point of view_).--O

LIBERTY! what strange (decorative) things are done in thy name!
