"Mr. Herford, less considerate than Dr. Holmes, always dares to be as

funny as he can, and the wicked glee with which he groups persons

incongruous and antipathetic and shows them doing things impossible to

them, and makes pictures of them, is a thing to shock the Gradgrinds and

dismay the Chadbands. The book is printed in two colors to divert the

reader's mind from the jokes, lest laughter be fatal to him."--_New York

Times._
