The Shakers abide by the spirit Of this
rule. Their words are few, simple

WHY NO EGGS WE'RE THROWN

Some audiences are patient and long
suffering. Others are quick and impul-
sive, going off at the slightest provoca-
ton, like powder magazine.
To the former class belonged the small
audience in the Metropolitan Opera
House last night. Had it belonged to the
latter class fear the show would have
come to a rather abrupt termination.
If it wasn't due entirely to the kindness
and indulgence of a good-natured audi
ence that the Buckler Stock Company
didn't get some gratuitous contributions
