Mixed Metaphors
The following- examples are tak-
en chiefly from the British House
Qf Commons where, free speech
is almost synonymous with loose
tall;:
'Our tongues are tied, our hands
are fettered, and we are really
beating* the air to no purpose."
"This thorny subject has long
been a bone of contention among
us."
"The West Indies will now have
a future which they never had in
the past.%"
"I will repeat what I was about
to say when the honorable mem-
ber interrupted toe."
"An oral agreement isn't worth
the paper it's written on."
"You may judge of our state
when I tell you that I write this
T. ith a sword in one hand and a
gun in the other."
"There was I, standing postrate
at the feet of royalty."

"-68, 69, 70, Hello Mamma,
71—"
Could Do Something
The steps np to the railway plat-
form were steep, and this, added
to the weight of the bag, caused
the large man to pant considerably.
"Carry your bag, sir?" asked a
small boy.
"No, get out of my way," cine
the auswer, between gasps.
The lad persisted, however, and
made the stout one so angry that
lie snapped his second refusal with
a force that was not to be ques-
tioned. -
"Well, can I hold your breath,
sir:" jeered the lad.
HOLD EVERYTHING
"You're gonna perform a little operation on a pal of ours—and
we're here t'see that y' don't pull any funny stuff !!Z
