Hut if you have that tight-band feeling : about tho head thnt tingling of the temples n sinking feeling now nnd then I'll tell yon what you need. You must see old Doc Merry nt the pharmacy of lnughtcr. And, oh I what a hard timcold Doe .Merry 'has in keeping his bottles filled up, for it's n rare old compound, com-pound, this laughter hard to make. Its ingredients nre not easy to mix tho thought, the expression of it in language, tho speaking of it, the right emphasis, the turn of the eye, the expression of the face, the mouth. Oh! think you there is no science in tho making of n laugh laugh-makers you think arc born and not made please, don't make me laugh. It is too grcnt a subject for a brief consideration this laughter. It is n wonderful subject. Its ramifications arc as numerous as the rippling tones in a young girl's merriment. Some day a great philosopher will come among us nnd will write a book and call it "Laughter." Its frontispiece frontis-piece will be the crumpled face of n gurgling baby, and its last picture the soft, sweet smiling visage of a dear old lady. |
