that the world has been in a laughing mood
and the evidences of this have been found
in the cordial receptions that have been
given to that class of plays having as their
fundamental principles the creation of mer-
rtnent.e So far has this gone in the idea
of comedy that the lines of the plot nave

has been series of productions presented

gived the public a well told amusing story

fun of interest. 1.-THE Air Ship" has been
seasoned with new medleys, songs, dances
