PRIVATE AND PERSONAL. :0: WHEN the Ever-Young and Lovely JUDY published her now WH world-famed "BOOK OF COMICALITIES," she felt and said that no apology was needed. The almost fabulous number of copies sold proved that she was, as she always is, perfectly right. Upon the occasion of her going in for "HIGH JINKS," she once more feels and says that her only object in so doing is to oblige an eager and clamorous public crying for more, and that she really does not wish-though she is afraid she will not be able to avoid it -to make a single penny by the transaction. Anxious, however, as it is her wont to be, to benefit others rather than herself, she intends to devote a few hundreds out of the profits on the sale of the "HIGH JINKS" in question, to the decoration of the exterior of her business premises, which will be painted a lively green, variegated by spots of a cheerful red; while the Office Boy will have a present of a new hat and feathers, and a pair of russet boots, to do honour to the contemplated magnificence. But one word more is wanting. The Ever-Young and Lovely JUDY trusts that this work will not be read, as the vulgar phrase goes, "upon the cheap," through shop windows or upon railway book-stalls, but that all men wishing to be thought—as JUDY is only too anxious to think them-true-born and manly Britons, will meet her unsurpassed generosity in providing such a shilling's-worth by providing the shillings to buy it.
