THAT we lilce to read of other people's sufferings is a common- place. That we like it all the more when the sufferers are ordinary men like ourselves, whose sufferings we can understand and appreciate, is even more. true. We offer for our new competition a prize of five guineas for .the most frank and spontaneous expression, written legibly on a post card, of three of life's little miseries; for example, writing with a post office pen.
