OUR FAULTS.
Two Instances Where Faults Are OBJ
served by Man.
0ne'l Is the Lack d Humor -snother Is Dram.
atization Of military Life.

The lack of the sense of humor in
some people is appalling. 1t is a com
mon thing to find a person who cannot
| tell a joke and who cannot remember
one. but more uncommon it is to meet
| a person who cannot appreciate one
to meet a person who takes the world
SO seriously that he or she is unable to
think a person is joking. 1t must be a
person is found so afflicted.
She was a very pretty young lady
| and all that. but the young man who
was with her was guying her unmerci-
fully. 1t was during one of the events
of the winter in which the representa-
tives and senators were concerned, and
as they are gone the real culprit will
not hear of his secret being told.
What was that remark you jus.
made?" she asked him.
Shakespeare and l never repeat"
replied the young man soberly.
But do you class yourself with
Shakespeare" she asked seriously,
looking at him as though she had dis
covered new trait in mankind.
Certainly" replied the young man
who was endeavoring to keep sober.
Me and the Governor" he went on
impressively, moment afterwards,
"are opposed to that bill, and I think
if keep at him he will hold out and I
will beat the other fellows"
All the while she was looking at him
curiously.
At another remark he made. he re-
ferred to something Bill Nye had once
said
WHO is Bill Nye?" she asked
blankly.
That question was too much for the
young man, and he left her. At the
same time she went over to friend
ard told her that she considered that
young man one with an awful
swelled head" She also remarked
| that Ibis grammar for a college man,
is something terrible" To this day
she probably does not know how he
was enjoying himself in guying her.
| 1t is amusing to see some Of the at
tempts on the amateur and semi
profession stage. and also in Sons
cases upon the professional stage. L
dramatize military life. 1t is not prob
| able that one out Of ten Of those wh'
take part know the faintest thini
about camp life or about military rule
and forms. more than what they hav
read, and consequently their effort
are amusing to those who have see
military life. even though it is but til
volunteer part of it.
