Chinese Seeretory'o Quickly Learned

“Have you ever been natural

"Yes, but it didn’t tako.”
“Now, that is what wc Ameri
cans call a joke,” explained the
Washingtonian to the brand new
secretary of the Chinese legation,
who led indicated his desire to be
come conversant with the custom*
of this country.
In spite of the alleged humor,
however, he failed to laugh, and hit
informant considered a further ex
planation proper.
‘Tou see, he continued, “th*
word naturalized hat been confused
with vaccinnle.”
The meaning of the two words
was then defined, together with the
phrase “didn’t take.
The conversation was continued
in a general way until the wise' rest I
dent of Washington suddenly fan- I
cicd it would be humorous to relieve !
himself of a joke at the expense of I
the Celestial. With a patronizing j
air, he put a query to the attache
iu jaw breaking words and then I
laughed at his own brilliancy.
- The secretary stared blandly at j
nim for a moment, utterly bewilder- I
ed by the question. His face wai.
expressionless, but he gave a faint .
smile when the American explained
he lmd been joking.
"A joke—yes; but it didn’t take,”
he replied, with a naive smile.—
