It is related of a man who went to see this clever surgeon" to profit by his discovery, that the brains were taken out and properly cleaned and improved. A week elapsed, and the empty-headed dhe never returned to have his brains replaced. Soon after the doctor met him in Pall Mall. " Why," asked he, " have you not been for your brains \ They are already for you !', " Oh," i cried the brainless one, " I don't want I them now : I have got an appointment I under Government."
