Show What Interested Him. Sir Arthur Pinero, the dramatist, tells an amusing story of a conversation conversa-tion he once heard while watching one of his own plays in the stalls of a West end theater A lady and her little boy were sitting sit-ting near him, and as the curtain went down on the second act the fond mother turned to her son and said: "Well, dear, are you enjoying it?" "Oh, yes, mamma," replied the youngster, gleefully; "do. you know, there are sixty-nine men in this theater thea-ter who have bald spots on the tops of their heads! 1 counted them five times! " After that the lady enjoyed the rest of the play without asking her young hopeful any more questions. Pearson's Pear-son's Weekly. |
