AN INDIAN EXHIBIT.

[His Highness the Nizam of Hyderabad intends visiting
England in state during the Indian and Colonial Exhibition at
South Kensington in 1886.—Daily Paper.']

He is coining, our own Nizam,

With no end of a gorgeous suite,

From palatial Hyderabad,

To lodge in a London Street!

He ’ll come next year, when the Opening’s near,

And Inventions have had their day;

[.South Kensington waits, at her area-gates,

B, Knowing he ’ll pass her way !

Oh, first of our Indian nobs
That has come to this Northern isle,

We hope for splendour and hanker for show
In the Oriental style.

Be sure to bring with you some lacs of rupees,

And of diamonds and pearls a pile !

He is coming, the great Nizam,

From his city of Hyderabad,

To inspect with his Royal eyes
This Exhibitional fad.

He ’» heard such stories of Healthery glories,

That he has the profoundest zeal

To taste the delights of Half-a-crown Nights,

And try the Sixpenny meal ?

With a bevy of beauteous girls
Will he voyage from the gorgeous East ?

Sit in coat of purple and waistcoat of gold
At the Vegetarian feast f

Will his dress be ali spangles of gewgaws and bangles,
Each worth a fortune at least ?

He ’ll come in the Spring-time warm ;

And in Autumn they ’ll all “make tracks; ”

A hearty cheer awaits them here,

For they’ve stood at our soldiers’ backs.

We allow a Prince to have “ followers,”

And we ’re quite accustomed to Blacks !

“ WHO CALLS SO LOUD ?”

Mr. Hamilton Aide has written on “ The Actor’s
Calling” in The Nineteenth Century. With every
respect to this accomplished writer, we would venture
to suggest that the Call-Boy is a better authority on this
subject than anyone else.

FORGETFULNESS AND SUCCESS.

The Lose-it-ian System.

WHO will teach me to forget ? ” said Themistoclf.s.

Professor Loseit will.

WE forget because we will,

And not because we must.”—Matthew Arnold.

(,Slightly altered.)

A BAD MEMORY the Conditions of

Political Success! I Literary Success!

Social Success ! I Commercial Success !

A DAY-CLASS in the ART OF NEVER REMEMBERING
ANYTHING, and for Cure of Inconvenient Recollection, every
alternate Sunday and Saturday. ,,

Lectures to the Families of the Nobility, Gentry, and Middle
Classes.

Try Professor Loseit’s New System.

Professor Loseit emplovs none of the “Pegs,” “Narcotics,” nor
other mechanical aids to Obliviousness.

The Best Memories eradicated without pain, or the use of Gas or
Ether.

Any Letter, Despatch, or Memorandum forgotten in One Lesson 1
Extracts from Testimonials.

From Lord Gr-nv-lle.—“ Thanks to your Infallible System, 1
have absolutely forgotten the German despatch of May 5th, as if it
had never existed. Indetd. I doubt if it ever did exist.”

From Mr. Gl-dst-ne.—“ Owing entirely to your excellent Method,
bay Midlothian Speeches have been wholly erased from my lteoollec-
tion. The names ot Majuba, Gordon, Tewfik, Stewart, have no
longer any associations for me whatever.” ,

From the Czar.—“ The Divine White Figure irom the North pre-

sents its Compliments and a Diamond Snuff-Box to Professor Loseit,
The D. W. F. assures Professor Loseit that, by pursuing the Pro-
fessor’s directions, it has clean lost memory of all its ‘ assurances,
dementis, and other inconvenient symptoms.”

From Lady Birkenhead.—“ I have made use of your Method, and
find that my inconvenient invitations and acceptances no longer give
me the faintest trouble or annoyance. I cut acquaintances, now,
without an effort.”

From ’Arry Slyp Nottidge.—“ Having tried the famous Loseit.ian
System, I am able to take my davy that I don’t remember nothing
about no promises to marry nobody, bar none. You may use my
name among the toffs.”

From Sir Thomas Dedbeet.—“ My promises to pay, since I
was induced by your advertisements to adopt your plan, have quite
ceased to haunt my memory, and no longer cause me the slightest
mental anguish.”

From Mr. Caudle“ Sir, I have made experiments, according to
your famous Method, on Mrs. Caudle, who was a martyr to a highly
inconvenient memory for things 1 had said and done. She is now
completely cured, and unites with me in best wishes for your health
and happiness.”

Many more Testimonials, equally gratifying, may be seen on
apnlication.

Our celebrated Water of Lethe, in gallon, quart, or pint bottles, or
in the wood.

De Lunatico.—A poor man was charged, the other day at the
Mansion House, “ with being of unsound mind, and wandering at
large.” Wandering, whether at large or otherwise, is no uncommon
evidence of insanity.
