Twain's Humor

1) The essential idea of "prefatory" is introduction. 2) An example of a humorous word in this text would be " I have been a bookseller's clerk for a while, But  the customers bothered me so much i couldn't read with any comfort." 3) I think the two-sentence structures of two readings contributes to a humorous tone because i turns a regular situation into something you can laugh at. 4) I think twain takes a regular situation and turns it into something funny.
