NOSE, n.  The extreme outpost of the face.  From the circumstance that great conquerors have great noses, Getius, whose writings antedate the age of humor, calls the nose the organ of quell.  It has been observed that one's nose is never so happy as when thrust into the affairs of another, from which some physiologists have drawn the inference that the nose is devoid of the sense of smell.

There's a man with a Nose,

And wherever he goes

The people run from him and shout:

"No cotton have we

For our ears if so be

He blow that interminous snout!"

So the lawyers applied

For injunction.  "Denied,"

Said the Judge: "the defendant prefixion,

Whate'er it protend,

Appears to transcen

The bounds of this court's jurisdiction."
