A study of Joking.
This last week there has been a good
joke going the rounds. One 'was asked:
'Have you heard the astonishing
news?" The proper answer of course,
was, "No, what is it?"—The reply
was, "Can you believe it, they have
found Kitchener,"' The evident answer
was "Never) Where?"—The inevitable
answer quickly followed—"Twelve
miles from Galt." It was curious to
note the reception that the joker nset
with. Some people smiled. Some
laughed uproariously. Others were
virtuously indignant. One lady, we
are told, put finer head in the air, .main-
tained a stony indifference for days.
But one woman asked the cleverest part
'of any. On hearing the final out -come,
she smiled sweetly and merely remark-
ed "What a strange place to choose
in which to hide him.' Even clergy-
men were not spared. It is reported
that 'a prominent divine was one ..of
the most eager, He swallowed bait,
hook, line and rod in one great gulp.
We gladly spare him the publication of
his name.
