was recently broken by singing. The
man who did it had a deep, full voice.
He set the glass on the table, stood be-

he settled on one rather high the glass
shook visibly. The note was repeated,
sung as loudly as possible, and finally
the glass shivered and crashed into bits.

him at the Paris opera house by an
usher, who bowed low and said: 1.-THE
door is open, prince" The English
man glanced at him, and, without ex-
tending the expected fee, sipmly said:
"Thank you very much, viscount."
