Mistaken Classification ! 



Two brothers were being entertained 



by a rich friend. As ill luck would have 



it, the talk drifted away from ordinary 

 topics. 



"Do you like Omar Khayyam ?" 

 thoughtlessly asked the host, trying to 

 make conversation. The elder brother 

 plunged heroically into the breach. 



"Pretty well," he said, "but I prefer 

 Chianti." 



Nothing more was said on this sub- 



ject until the brothers were on their 

 way home. 



"Bill," said the younger brother, 

 breaking a painful silence, "why can't 

 you leave things that you don't under- 

 stand to me? Omar Khayyam ain't a 

 wine, you chump ; it's a cheese." — New 

 York Globe. 



Hail to you, winds of March ! 



And welcome, April's showers! 

 For you blaze the way to the heart 



Of the summer's fragrant bowers. 



— Emma Peirce.
