This may be easily illustrated.
* * * * * Miss Herford's inimitable monologues, being each the apotheosis of sometypical Bromide--a shopgirl, a country dressmaker, a bargain-hunter andso on--become, through her art, intensely sulphitic. They areexcruciatingly funny, just because she represents types so common thatwe recognize them instantly. Each expresses the crystallized thought ofher particular bromidic group. Done, then, by a person who is herself aSulphite _par excellence_, the result ...is droll. "One has, " saysEmerson, "but to remove an object from its environment and instantly itbecomes comic. " * * * * * The same thing is done less artistically every day upon the vaudevillestage. We love to recognize types; and what Browning said of beauty: We're made so that we love First, when we see them painted, Things we have passed Perhaps a hundred times nor cared to see can be easily extended to our sense of humor in caricature. A recenthit upon the variety stage does still more to illustrate the problem.
