THE AUTOMATIC PHYSIOGNOMIST.

SCENE--_The German Exhibition, near an ingenious machine
constructed to reveal the character and future of a person
according to the colour of his or her hair, for the small
consideration of one penny. A party of Pleasure-seekers are
examining it._

_First Pleasure-seeker_ (_a sprightly young lady of the name of
LOTTIE_). "Put in a penny and get a summary of your character from the
colour of your 'air." I wonder what they'll 'ave _next_!

_Second Pl.-s._ (_her admirer, a porridge-faced young man with pink
eyelids and faming hair, addressed as 'ECTOR by his intimates_). Ah,
it's surprising how far they've got, it reelly is. And beginning with
butter-scotch, too!
