JUVENILE HUMOR
The following gems of unconscious juvenile humor are deserving of attention by all collectors of ‘ howlers': ‘ Kizzio was an Italian who invented ice creams and got killed by them.' ‘ Doomsday Book is another name lor Paradise Lost.’ ‘ Simon de Montfort was called Simple Simon. He formed what was known as the Mad Parliamentit was something the same as it is at the present day, but not quite.' - Mr. Joseph Chamberlain is the man who invented frisky policy and goes about wearing an orchard in his coat.’ ‘A focus is a thing like a mushroom, but if you eat it you will feel different from a mushroom, for focusses is fatal.’
