A FORTUNE FOR BREAKFAST
How de Musset, Moupon and Duprez
Sold Song


Some years ago three young men, all
highly gifted but improyident and un-
fortunate, were walking the streets of
Paris together, Pennies and hungry,
says Tlt-Bits.
''What wouldn't give for nice break
fastP' said one of them.
What wouldn't give for breakfast,
even if it weren't nice ?'' said another.
"Any kind of breakfast would. do for
me, provided it was a breakfastI' said the
third.
How much must we have with which
to get our meal?" asked the first.
I'VE ought to have 10 francs at least.
said another.
II have an idea! Here's music pub
Usher. Come alongH' said one.
Sir" said he to the publisher, I'VE wish
to sell you song of which one of us has
written the words and another the air;
and will sing it, as l am the only one OF
the three who has any voice.
The music publisher made a grimace.
"Well, &c on. Well see If your song is
good for anything"
.'Hum!" said the publisher at the con-
clusion of the performance, sit ism It
much of song-a simple little thing.
But I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll give
you 15 francs for it,
The three young men had not expected
as much. They handed the publisher the
manuscript took the money and went off
to dine at neighboring restaurant. The
author of the words was Alfred de Musset,
the composer Hippolite Moupon and the
singer Gilbert DupreZ. The song which
was entitled "ConnaisseZ-vous dams BARGE
lone ?' had great popularity and brought
the publisher considerable fortune.
About 900, 600 trees are annually planted
by Swedish school children under the guild
ance of their teachers.
