like 10 watch him when he is not
doing anything in particular, when he
is just riding his elephant and awaiting
the will Of providence to dismount, when
he is wslizing with the children, or
getting married and rocking himself to
and fro in helpless decpair. And by the
way. that despair has decidedly comic
element OF its own. 1t is 30 absolute, so
complete, 50 all embracing, and gener-
ally 50 uncalled for. And what is the
matter with Mrs. Hopper? 1t would
be treaso1 to say that she was
any better than Della Fox, but she GER
tainly was quite as audacious without
being SD impudent. She uses her smile
and her eye in the approved light opera
fashion and manages to do 1t without
being bold or giddy a bit. Like her
husband. she seems to play for the fun
there is in it and TO be blessed with a
good nature that is boundless and end
less.
