A Culcutta business man accepted an invitation to stay with a wealthy bachelor friend, and went to bed on his first night the worse for a drinking bout with his host. As he tossed in his foom shoals of mosquitoes came to add to his torment. Ho wandered out in sc'arch of a servant. "Can I borrow a mosquito nett" he asked. " ’Fraid not,’' answered the man. ‘‘Boss never uses them." "Well, how does he got on with these coots ?” 4 4 Looks this way to me. The first part of tho night Vs generally too full of whisky to worry about skeets, and tho rest of the night they’re too full of whisky to worry about ’im ! ’*
