"In that ease," somec#ne fs sure to remark,. "we cannot do it at will, a sense of humour being a gift of the gods." But is it? I'm not so sure. I believe a sense of humour can be cultivated to some extent, at least, First of all, your sense of humour is useless to you when angry.. Nothing takes ona humorous appearance to the angry person, so that it is only the sunny -tempered who 'really make rul)1lise of their sense of humour, who ercise is at all times. So one way o cultivate your latent sense of uumour is to curb your temper and one yourself to_loalc at everything vith calmness and tolerance.

Of course there are reasons for ."righteous an- ger," I'm not talking about those, I'm speaking about the little, every- day annoyances which every one meets as 'the days go by. monotony, :But as to a sense of l?um-' our I do not beliet$a that either was left entirely, without it. This you 'will notice, however, that the cross, ill-natured man or woman seoins.to -have no sense of humour. One has to allow" oneself to be, some what tolerant of the faults mid fall- ings of others; ono'has to stand aside: and put oneself in the ether's- place, one has to take tab of one's own fail- ing and shortcomings before olio can begin to overlook those of others Oh, 1 believe a sense of humour, or good-natured tolerance can be eulti-' voted to ,quite a Considerable degree. and that it is worth the el'fcrt, too. REBEKAH. Women, I know, are supposed not to have a sense of humour, but My experience has been that there are as many wonien.as amen who have it, only the things which amuse a mann do not always amuse a woman. Women are seldom.. amused at a situa- tion which' makes a fellow -creature ridiculous or which gives pain to any- one. That, is her nature.. She en- deavors to soothe pain, to give relief, and ordinarily, she is not amused, or at least no matter whether the situa- tion is funny or not, that is over- looked if it causes a fellow -creature pain, while men, not being so. -sensi- tive to pain 'hi s t'hers, may see the funny situation as the most outstand- ing feature. Of course, this is only a general statement. Some women are not sympathetic to the pain or discomfiture of others, some nien are. But it generally falls out that when a woman fails td see the fun in a certain situation which is really funny it is because her mind is so busy with the thought that sonme'oth- er person is being put in an. ember - rasing or painful position. That is one reason why very few women play practical jokes. The point of a prac- tical joke is that someone is made ridiculous, that does not appeal to a woman. She doesn't enjoy being madearidiculous, herself and she does not wish to make' anyone else appear SO.
