Mulliner's Buck U Uppo !
Augustine Mulliner is given Buck U Uppo and it bucks him up. A timid man becomes as strong as elephant. He is in love with the vicar's daughter, Jane Brandon. He saves the Bishop from a dog and the Bishop says | Splendid fellow"!.
Finally he learns that the purpose of Buck U Uppo is to steel the nerves of elephants in India. When they see tigers, they gallop home ! Ha, Ha !

Unrivallled P G !
Wodehouse is unrivalled as a master of farce and a comic genius. His idyllic world can never stale !
What a world he had created for us !
The beak says "Silence", Bertie Wooster totters in, inebriated and Jeeves fixes a drink and Bertie says " You are engaged"! Aunt Agatha condemns Bertie as an anti-social element !

Money is dross !
Gems from Wodehouse
Poet - Money is dross. Love is a manna sent from Heaven, a spark of the Immortal Fire, sent by the Lord to elevate our low desire.
Other fellow - O Ho ! It is dross, eh ?
Poet - It is dross
After some days, they meet again
Other fellow - You said Money is dross !
Poet - Yes, money is dross !
Other fellow - But people are running after that dross !
After some time, he says " OK, I am a bit tight. Can you lend me some of that dross " !
