ONE DEFINITION OF LAUGHTER
Explanation Of an American Humor.
ist-Many Persons In History
Who Never Laughed.

What Is laughter? An American
humorist has called it IAN undignified
widening of the human mouth, accom-
panied by a noise resembling cough
in the effort to avoid swallowing a
chestnut"
Laughter" says Prof. Sir Charles
Bell, 'is a convulsive action of the
diaphragm. In this state the person
draws a full breath and throws II
out in interrupted, short and audible
cachinnations. This convulsion of
the diaphragm Is the principal part
of the physical manifestation Of laugh.
ter
But there are several accessories
especially the sharp vocal utterance
arising from the violent tension OF
the larynx and the expression of the
features, this being a more intense
! form of the smile. In extreme cases
the eyes are moistened by the effusior
from tho lachrymal glands"
/ There are some people who cannot
laugh-who are wholly unable to en-
| joy either the physical or the mental
luxury of laugh. Thus, it was said
of William III. that he was utterly al
a loss to understand what could be got
out of laughter except loss of dignity
There are many persons in history
who have been, according to common
report, incapable Of laughter. Queer

We took our places accordingly as

was fixed singly upon the screen, and
he waited for the final act of the

hum of voices. Crewe touched our

such a man exists" said Crewe, when
he had heard my story attentively
Are there any photographs of men in
Mrs. Sanford's apartment"
There were dozens of photographs
OF both men and women. In fact Mrs.
Sanford had had a hobby for collect
ing photographs of all her acquaint-
ances. The apartment had been
sealed by the police, but, upon obtain
ing an order from the authorities, we
were enabled to enter. We found pho

would prove more profitable to attach
herself. In fact, Mrs. Sanford had
had frequent visitors; she was an at

any of these had murdered her
