PUNCH, OR THE LONDON CHARIVARI.
VOL. 158.
February 25th, 1920.
CHARIVARIA.
"Another American," says a Washington despatch, "has been captured by
Mexicans and is being held to ransom." We deplore these pin-prick tactics.
If there is something about the United States that President CARRANZA wants
changed he should say so.

A contemporary states that the old theory, that when your ears burn it
means that people are talking about you, is accurate. Upon hearing this a
dear old lady at once commenced to crochet a set of asbestos ear-guards for
Mr. CHURCHILL.
* * *
The American gentleman who claims to have invented _revues_ is shortly
coming over to England for a holiday. Personally we should advise him to
wait until the crime wave has died down a bit.

It is pleasing to note that in spite of the recent spring-like weather the
POET LAUREATE is calmly keeping his head.
