First New Canadian Library edition 1957. Summary:  Stephen Leacock's extraordinary humour has never been shown to better advantage than in Literary Lapses, his first collection of comic writings. Here we find such classic stories as the tale of the man who is seized by fear as he opens a bank account; the awful case of the young man who dies because he cannot tell a lie; and the astonishing tale of the baby who ate thirteen Christmas dinners; among many others. An instant popular success when it first appeared in 1910, Literary Lapses established Leacock as one of the world's most brilliant and beloved humourists. -- From back cover.
