In vain you swear That I am fair, That heaven is on my lip! I know each vow Is worthless now; [Illustration: YOU'VE MISS'D YOUR TIP.] * * * * * THE TWO NEW EQUITY JUDGES. "Between the two new Equity Courts, the suitors in Chancery will be much better off than formerly"--said Fitzroy Kelly, lately, to an intimate. "Undoubtedly," replied the friend, "they may now choose between the frying-pan and the fire." * * * * * MR. PUNCH, ARTIST IN PHILOSOPHY AND FIREWORKS[1], [1] Baylis.
