Country banker (to shaky customer)— “ Are you aware, Mr Soolivan, that your account is overdrawn a hundred or so ?” Soolivan—“ Certainly I am, Sir. Don’t bother me about such trifles ! 1 don’t go howling about the country when you have a hundred or so of mine. Your information is superfluous either way ! Good morning, sir!”—“Punch.” There is a great deal of bitter sarcasm exhibited by a bulldog in a midnight interview with a young man and a guitar among the roses.
