Playful Pun

Junius Booth, who had once suffered a badly broken nose, was once approached by a female admirer. "You're such a wonderful actor, Mr. Booth," she enthused, "but to be perfectly frank with you, I can't get over your nose." "There's no wonder, madam," Junius replied. "The bridge is gone."


Booth, Junius Brutus (1796-1852) British-born American actor, father of John Wilkes Booth [noted for his Shakespearean roles]
