ADude Discounted.

Miss Anna Warren Story, the accom-
plished elocutionist, is a handsome
woman-the perfect reproduction oi
the ideal classical female. During Lent
shegave recitations in private parlo-s,
A young dude became infatuated with
her several months ago and was de-
voted in his attentions. He conceived
the brilliant idea OF reciting with the
lady of his heart. The result OF it al
was that a catastrophe happened
which Miss Story related to Mail
and Express reporter.
"He was the ambitious son of a
very indulgent Murray Hill million
aire," she said. 81 could not prevent
his attending the receptions where
reCited. He brought flowers, and
really knew whether / recited well or
not. But that little knowledge he
had of elocution made his egotisnl
Olympian, and to hear him talk a
stranger would imagine that he could
coach Booth, Salvini, and Mary An
derson. 1t was pleasant to listen to
his discourses, interjected with many

move ANYBODY to speak. and in the
whole time of silence did not see one
person asleep or even nodding. That
is not because the Quakers are more
devout than other people, but Tor
the simple reason that they did not
have ANYBODY to talk them to sleep.
AS for the effect through the eyes,
there is first the dim, religious light
common in churches, and second, the
straining and unnatural position In
which the eyes have to be kept In
looking up at a minister perch-
ed in q pulpit or on a plat
form considerably higher than the
heads of his auditors. You cannot
long look up at anything without tlr-
ing the muscles that move the eye
balls and making you want to rest
them by closing your eyes. When you
close your eyes in a comfortable at
mosphere, with persistent lullaby In
your ears, you must have some pow
erful incentive to waEefulness, or you
will go off to the land of nod, Just as
sure as that tack hammers are not
bananas. Look at the congregations
in the more sensibly-constructed mod
ern churches, where the floor is in
amphitheatrical form, and the line OF
sight is straight, or inclining a little
down, from each auditor to the min.
lister at the lowest point, and you will
find very little sleepiness there, esPe-
cially fthe place is welllighted. Why,
q preacher must be class Chump

in that sort of church. As for the
women, they manage to keep awake
