A Chinese tale, you know,
Works upward from below.
The sense of mine is none the worse
If taken backward, verse by verse.

"Frederick ----, 14, was summoned for failing to display a white front
light on a bicycle and pleaded guilty.

Policewoman ---- stated the facts, and was fined 5s."--_Local Paper._

Most discouraging.

"Florists by the thousand for cutting. They are also nice for borders
round grass-plots, along hedges, round shrubs, etc."--_Dutch Bulb
Catalogue_.

We should not dare to treat a British florist like this.
