GALLING ATTENTION. —The Examiner thus
'• calls attendee" to • foolish &Sarandon which has of late
years gained ground :—" Does arty one ever by any chinos
read in the newspapers anything regarding himself requiring
an answer or explanation? We raise this inquiry bowies
all lettere of complaint, contradiction, or explanation com-
mence with the same words, ' My attention has been ..ailed
to,' tr. Now, what is the meanies of this air? Would the
writer ' make believe' that he doss not read sewepepere, that
be is too high and mighty, or too much occupied for sigh
reading? Why, he was seen in hie dab spelling
one the Teen for throe horns before be sat down
to write that indignant note to the Editor, raying
that his attention had been called to a mutilate
paragraph imputing to him a deviation from the strict
letter of the truth. Or have we moons us greet men Iles
those of Lapel., who are attended by flappers to roan their
enaction to what materna them? Bat really little men have
a greater right to this pretension of attestant-calling than
great ones. For example, it would be allowable for John
Jenkins, the street-sweeper, to write to the Inset, saying
that his attention hid been called to the stremeent that John
Jenkins, the street-sweeper, et Charing-cross, hed been com-
mitted for picking pockets, and that be is not the John Jen-
kins so compromfsed, the offender being an interloper, who
his stone the name as well sa the snutf•box ;
this, we say, would be allowable, because a greet-
sweeper may not be supposed to read the newspaper at his
breakfast-table, as most folk. do. But in 'ankles's owe the
question remains to be answered, how it is that he his a
convenient friend who has the opportunity of readies eon"
earning him what he does not, caonot read for himself, w-
hen. because he has never learnt? In Footie faros, The
Uptoirterer. Quidnunc reeds the announcement of his own
bankruptcy in the Gezetts, and wonders they can Wart suck
saint-resting rubbish when he is so aexioue about the poor
dear Emperor of Morocco. Mere Is the ran example of a
man who wanted a flapper to cell his atteetinea, but, to be
sure, it occurs in the extrathgesee of farce. We should like
to see the sort of people who call attentive. It is sot a busi-
ness, like calling carriages at routs, nor that of a footman
who calls • cab, but purely °Seines. It is esfeet, however.
to believe it fabulous. And why, in the name of common
sense, should any one think it beurath hint to say that be
