Volume 104 — "Down Among the Dead Men."

Reading edition

Ebriosus loquitur:—

Silly spook-hunters show a wish to learn If (hic!) departed spiritsh e'er return! Did they, I should not have so dry a throttle, Nor would it cost so mush to—passh the bottle! Thersh no returning (hic!) of Spiritsh fled, And (hic!) "dead men"—worsh luck!—continue dead!

Wanted Badly.—A "close time" for Autograph-hunting. Alas! the great—and even the not-so-very-great—are "made game of" all the year round.
