" That's Just It."
A woman Jooked in at the photographer's the other afternoon. "I have no fauit to find with myself and children in the family group you took of us," ehe began; "but my husband is a complete failure. He looks more like a eJiimpanzee than anything else, and after all the instructions I gaye him as to the correct pose and expression. Why, none of his friends recognised him." "Madam," replied the knight of the camera blandly, "I scented 1 trouble with your husband from the first. You know how I begged and entreated, nay, even pleaded with him to look natural." "That's just it," retorted 1 the partially dissatisfied oiie ; that's what caused the mischief."
