BULLS AND BLUNDERS.
ITO THE EDITOR OF TEM SPECTATOR.. j Bra,—After reading "Bulls and Blunders " in the Spectator of March 6th I think these three curious remarks made to me may came amusement. Some one, feeling nervous, said: "I felt like a cat out of water." A mother, excusing her boy, re- marked: "I don't thilik you can look to find an old man's shoulders on a boy's head, do you ?" Lastly, a nurse, being told of servants' want of consideration during severe illness in the house, said : "You'd think if they had any heart in their stummicks they would put their shoulder to the wheel."
