In seeking to elevate the stage by means
of our Justly celebrated entertainments,
which believe Mr.. Thomas Bailey Aldrich
has happily characterized as q higher order
of literary minstrelsy, we meet a good
many people. We meet a good many of
them as we go to our work in the evening

on our wav home. But tuose are not the
ones I refer TO especially. l refer more
especially to the eminent men whose homes
are in the cities we visit and who courte-
ously shake hands with US and bid US God
speed, often going so far as to introduce US
to the audience.
