found the Brooklyn pitchers curves 10 their Tx
ing Herzog. who Is undoubtedly keeping up
Larry Doyie's pace at second base, landed on the
ball for triple and two singles. and Mccormick
lsnd Crandan each slammed out two-baggers. When

THE WARPED SENSE OF HuMoR.

It is a big thing to be born with sense Of
humor. It will force smooth sailing nfes rough
est SEAS and viii make even drudgery bearable
The woman who cannot Joke. even at her
own expense is to be pitied-and SO are her fun
loving friends There is nothing harder on both
sides than humorism that falls fiat.
The good people who are interested in the de-
crease of divorce should have Law passed that the
serious minded and the joker may not wed. It
means ructions ere the orange blossoms fade.
A man not long ago was bewailing broken en-.
gagement A friend who knew them both said:
1T Is the Lord taking hand to save you from
a lifetime of misery. Georgia couldn't see fun If
1t were labeled JOKE and you couldn't help jok-
ing though it meant separation from those you
loved best"
But 1t is one thing to have a sense Of hunor and
another to have warped sense of humor There
is no maddenag than the person who
roars at our mishaps and thinks 1t so funny" to
mortify his friends
You. can afford to laugh--if you feel like it.
when you fall in crowded ballroom or lose your
false puffs in church; but you have no friendship
so tender that will warrant smile when friend
does the same.
It is the woman with the misplaced sense Of
humor who tells embarrassing anecdotes about fam
ily makeshifts, or who repeats as a good joke to
common friend something you hare said about
her but never intended her to hear
One of these misplaced humorsts is the husband
who thinks 1t funny to ask guest to have certain
Dishes and when she accepts to tell her we are
Just out Of it."
Have you never been covered with embarrass-
ment by having such man ask you to say grace aE
his dinner table and shrek with laughter at your
Efforts to get out of It?
Then there are hum0rists who, when Won tell
good story, think it smart" to receive II VII.
forced outlaws, and others who H.iliSully refuse Ia
laugh at the point.
Laugh all you can, but have sense Of atness
in your laughing. TO joke over the bumps in your
own life win do much TO smooth them; to find hn.
NOR in the mishaps OF your friends is soon 70 nnd
yourself friendless
No matter how keen your sense OF humor use
discretion In sharing joke with q friend Humor
is like lightning i rarely strikes twies in tha
same way.

ITALIAN CHILDREN MAKE MERRY
IN NEW YORK.
Perform the SaItarella, with Tambour
ines, in American Playground
Just as II Is Done in
Sunny italy.

The theater and the roof garden are
not the only places in New York
where one may get a good. hearty
laugh, writes correspondent The
other afternoon two persons who have
seen so much Of New York that they
ought to have become proof against
so cheap and ennui-producing
source Of entertainment as a chill
dren's playground sat in the pavilion
Of the girls playground In Thomas
Jefferson park. This park fronts on
the wild waters of Hell Gate and Is
surrounded by the tenement homes Of
an Italian population. The two would
not have been IN the park II business
had not called them thither. All
around them were children Of varying
ages and color Of skin, from soft seal
brown to the fair, rosy hue which one
expects TO find only in the children
Of northern Europe.
Soon a man of sandy complexion
ard attired in a neatly fitting blue
suit was seen approaching. He car
ried a bundle. A scream issued from
the mouths Of 40 Italian children. The
pavilion instantly became a scene Of
bustling activity. Children ran hither
and thither. The package was un-
wrapped II proved to contain tam
bourines. The children formed in dou-
bic line, according to their heights. the
line being headed by a dimunitive
pair whose complexions were so mark
edly in contrast that one could never
have been mistaken for anything ex-
cept that Of a child of Italian par
entage while the other was so fair
and rosy that one could hardly believe
its possessor to be Of that ancestry.
The procession OF misses marched
to a threadbare plat of green. while a
curious crowd gathered outside the high
iron fence and tried TO climb over. A

purposes and when their owners died
frequently became their burial places.
They are known In this country as
ship graves. The custom of burying
the dead in boats was doubtless or
iginally associated with the idea of
voyaging to another world, as much cf
the property, such as weapons, house
hold utensils clothing and iewelry Of
the deceased, was buried with them.
The most dramatic realization of this
idea was probably the funeral of King
Hake. After the battle of Fryesvol-
dene. in which he was mortally
wounded, he ordered that his ship
be loaded with the bodies of his dead
warriors together with their arms.
Then he himself was carried on board,
the rudder adjusted, the sail hoisted,
the ship set on fire and driven by an
off-shore wind the craft sailed blazing
out to sea and disappeared
In addition to a great number OF
boat graves of humber character,
unearthed at different times, the year
1852 inaugurated an era of famous
discoveries Of ship graves In a large
mound at Void. in eastern Norway
was found a vessel about 60 feet long,
containing many funeral articles OK
grave goods" chiefly ornaments, the
skeletons of two horses and dog.
The vessel, however, was decayed be-
yond recovery. In 1854, in q large
mound at Donner, in northern Nor
way, another vessel resembling a
yacht was discovered. but in this in
stance also the woodwork had mold
cred and the ship crunbled to dust
as the excavation proceeded In 1867,
in large circular mound at Tune, IN.
eastern Norway, was found long
ship" In the wooden grave chamber
astern. which had been broken into
and disturbed by the graverohbing
treasure hunters OF the viking age q
man had been entombed. The vessel,
known as the Tune ship, was success
fully excavated and taken to Chris
tiania. where it is preserved in the an
tiQuarian collection Of the university.

RELIC OF THE PAST

Gokstad near the town of Sander.
jord in eastern Norway. was found
a long ship, which must have belonged
to a Norwegian chieftain in the ninth
century The oaken grave chamber
on the left side Of the mast, which
had been broken into by treasure
hunters. contained the sepulcher Of a
man. The sepulehral equipment, or
grave goods, lay scattered about OH
each side of the ship was a long row
of shields, alternately black and whites
which overlapped, presenting the apr
pearancc Of q succession Of ereseentai
The rudder was in It's place on tha
starboard side, the lower portion of
the mast was preserved and the ship
was equipped with oars projecting
from the rowlocks. II contained the
remains Of IL horses, six dogs, ona
peacock, several small boats and ono
sled.
This vessel, which is known as tha
Gokstad ship. was successfully exca~
vated and taken to Christiania. II was
the greatest and most important an
tiquarian. discovery ever made in the
north. In 1898 the N0rwegians built
long ship, on the model of the Cox
stad ship, but smaller which was
sailed to America by Capt. Anderson
and exhibited at several places In thd
United States.
