A DUAL ROLE.
A certain well-known actress, herself something of a mimic, once objected to on imitation of herself by another comedienne. •
"It's not a bit like me!" she exclaimed.
"It isn't supposed to be, dear," replied the comedienne. "It's an imitation of you imitating me !"
DISAPPOINTINGLY HUMAN. ■ Small Boy (at dock): "Papa, those are not real sailors, are they?" Papa: "Indeed they are. Why do you think they are not?"
j "Why, I've been watching them for most an hour, an' I haven't seen one of them hitch his trousers an' stand on one leg an' say, "Yo-ho, my hearties!' once."
