The nns1ish and American humorists-
instantly the names Of Theodore HOOK.
Tom Hood. Douglas Jerrold. Artemus
Ward. Mark Twain and others OF their
Hind fash before us. AImost without e.
cepffon W sncIude n this instantaneous
inventory only that comparatively MOD
ern product. the professional comic writer
and Wit. A second thought ccnvinees US
that the subject ii far broader than this
.-humor Is the very HE blood OF all 1T
esafure. it, genial current pulses in every
rnasterpyece. A list Of tho humorists,
with few exceptions. Is a list Of the mas
ters.
Ths impulse to class a. humorfsts only
the Theodore Hook variety Of writers
corncs from . confusion as TO ths true ma
ture OF wit and humor Many bottles OF
Ink have been expended In attempts 70
eii;cidats the distinction between thess
terms Haxfitt, for instance, has made
long and profound analysis which ex-
hausts both the subject and the reater.
But the distinction II by no means an
abstruss one: Wit deals only with the In
feIlect: humor touches also the feelings
wit Is unsympathetic and often cruel, II
raises = laugh AZ the expense Of another;
humor n gentle and sympathetic.
smf1es through rs tears. wit Is the
rparkie Of newly opened wine; nothing II
more volatile. The Jokes that were wont
10 sss the tables Of our fathers on a roar
are dull enough reading today There
ss no more drsary volume than an old
Joke hook. wit VIII not bear transporting
German ana French jokes seldom make
us smile; the duilness Of Punch is pro-
verbal among Americsns.
