A piece of string on my linger ! Now what can that be for ? Something I have to remember, To fetch to-night from the store. My wife said she'd die without it, Her cough she could never endure ; Her cough ! Now I know what she's wanting, It's Woods' Great Peppermint Cure.* 2
The Observer on the Licensing Bill: —"There is one solitary flash of grim humour, evidently quite unintentional, in the new Licensing Bill.
