The peregrinating phrenologist, like the corn doctor, is always meandeiring about looking for mugs with a little gilt and well^developed bumps. Last wee"k one melon-manipulator touring the suburbs absent-mindedly removed his belltopper, when his afternoon's stock-in-trade of pamphlets^ fairly littered the pave. His discomfiture was so great that his bump of self-esteem fell 100 per cent., and he a;ot away from the scene quick and lively, the kids guying the great man with cries of "What do, she bumps."
