thousand and three received during the week. The others are at the
service of any enterprising editor, or Lord DEVONPORT can have them
if he will send a waggon to take them away. They should make pleasant
week-end reading.

AN EXCELLENT SUGGESTION.

SIR,--What we plain men want to know and what we are entitled to know
is--What does Lord DEVONPORT eat? What does Mr. KENNEDY-JONES eat?
What does Mr. ALFRED BUTT eat? It would make a vast difference to
the success of the food campaign if each of these administrators was
visible at his meals, doing himself extremely ill. I suggest that a
prominent shop window should be taken for each, and they should have
their luncheon and dinner there in full view of the public.

Yours, etc.,
COMMON SENSE.


THE POWER OF BRITISH HUMOUR.

trick would be done. I suggest, for example, something really pithy
and witty, such as--

IT IS NOT ENOUGH
FOR
ONE OR TWO DAYS
TO BE
MEATLESS DAYS.
