the game with but slight variations,
and through all the intervening CEN

|W|T FROM CHINA
Eastern Sense of Humor Very
Much Like Our Own.
Samples Show There Has Been Little
Change in Human Nature Through
the Centuries.

Although the Chinese may seem seri-
BUS he is not without genuine sense
Lof humor. His literature is highly
seasoned with witticisms and humOr-
ouS situations. Unfortunately, brevity,
Which is essentially the soul of wit Of
bis proverbs, Is impaired in the trans.
ation into English. Also there Is
nnch Of Chinese humor, even that
found in the books of the most famous
writer's, that is too broad for literal
fnrSlatiOn.
Nevertheless, human nature Is. and
hss for thousand years, been funda-
nenlally the same. This is shown by
fhe following epigrams, taken from
Fhe work of n writer, Ii Shang Yin,

alton from the Chinese was made by
Mr. w. F. Mayors.
