A "horse-laugh' is nothing compared with
the laugh of Cool Burgess. There is no
fear of his laughing on the wrong side of
his face, for when he laughs he laughs all
over. Cool is "big thing as "laughist."
And he is SO cool about it, that all who hear
him have tolaugh at his impudence in compel
ling them to join in the laugh that is at
their expense; for while he assumes to
laugh they laugh in reality, and there is
where the laugh comes in earnest. Go to
the Academy of Music and hear Cool Bur-
CESS laugh. 1t is really laughable to hear
him laugh, for he laughs with gusto that
gives all an irresistible relish to laugh. and
the scene becomes truly laughable one.
