No. 58. A Charade. 
A pedagogue, by custom bound, 
Among his pupils boarded round; 
He was so total , so conceited, 
A boy, whom he had once ill-treated. 
Concluded to revenge the past; 
So, hid a first in teacher’s last. 
The victims wrath in rage exploded, 
Like some old musket overloaded.

Our Cozy Corner. 
G. P. C.: After we had read your missive we 
thought of an anecdote we once heard. A person 
once sent a note to an eminent statesman, requesting 
his autograph and a “sentiment.” The statesman 
wrote his autograph and penned the following: “My 
sentiment is, that when one requests a favor of 
another, on business that is of interest to himself 
alone, he, at least, should send stamp for a reply.” 
Had you sent stamp you would have heard from us 
through the mail, although we could not have given 
you the information sought, as it is of a private na¬ 
ture entirely. We decline telling you the amount we 
receive for editing this department.— Undine: Your 
solutions to the June puzzles were received, and we 
cannot imagine why your name did not appear in the 
.1st of solvers. The omission was, of course, unin¬ 
tentional, and it must have been our fault, as the 
compositor seems to be very faithful in following 
“copy.” Hope the mistake will not occur again.— 
Sallie: We miss your name in the list of August solv¬ 
ers. Were the puzzles too hard, or were you too busy? 
How does your puzzle column succeed? See what you
