BRITISH HUMOUR.

A woman resident at one of the neutral Legations in London writes to the Sunding Times

If the English take pleasures sadly and sourly they certainly seem to tuko their prescut inconveniences gaily End, in a sente sweetly. I expected to sse them kick hard against the official on their commissariat became a limited. Scant them of beer and of bacon, of port and pheasants end you'll have half won Germany's fight. I thought I was mistaken. The food shortage came, and the Londoners tough-

ed. I can't understand why the

English seem to mind the food shortago, so little, Marie X said, as she shook her hoad sulkily at proffered square inches of war-bread. But it's perfectly simple, the blinister exclaimed. It is their sense of humour. Their what? his wife and I said in one brenth. A very profound sense of humour insisted his Excellency

but so entirely different from ours that we find it most difficult to realise that it is a sense of bumour. But it is. These Londoners-prers, middle-class, costers— find all tho makeshifts and inconveni ences of this war time screamingly funny j and that positively suves the nationa situation. The English are the

of Europe They are very like the Chinese minus the pigtail. Now, in China, no matter what your plight, with a herd of enraged Chinament against you, make them laugh, if you can, and they' not harm a hair of your head. I owed TU life to it once when I was under BeCreary at and Gordon several,

HAVE THEY GOT YOU, TOO!!

The Earl of Denbigh tells a good war story. A friend of his, he says, took prisoner an elderly German officer who was very nasty about it, and remarked that he could console himself by the thought that his officer son was killing ii twenty nigs of Englishmen a day " When the captive arrived at Southampton a cheery voice came from the quay, Hullo, father Have they got you too
