professional mirth-makers themselves
will nov arise and proclaim that the cor
responding British sheets are entitled TO
the distinction, but these persons either
have not sense Of humor. or have not
read the British prints while IN a receptive
mood. As a matter Of fact, seven5y-hve

Jokes which have been amputated from the
little explanatory paragraphs which lend
such a charm 10 the witticisms OF our
brothers across the water. Who can read
