"Cupid's Little Came" by II. g. W., is a short
play evidently intended for parlor acting The
is laid chiefly at Newport and the characters are
men and women in good society. The course of true
love is made to run somewhat roughly by villain
whose social graces do not prevent him from in
dulging in many unpleasant tricks to abolish his ri
val. The little play, which can doubtless be easily
adapted to the drawing has much wholesome
sentiment and wise suggestion.
