A husky 'boy wis my. first' and last pupil. He took oiit- lesson from me, and went home afterward a little worse for wear. Whou he turned up for the next les son, he said: "Mr. Sullivan, it was my idea to learn enough pugilism from you to be able to lick a certain 'young man that I dislke. T5ut I've changed my mind now. If it's all the same to you, I'll send this young man "down here to take the rest of my lessons for me: tl." the pugilist concluded, "was a f little too rough to teach boxing." i A LOST OPPORTUNITY.
