IN THE FAMILY CIRCLE.
Some Things That Were Noted There
bY an Occasional Thcatrc-Goer.

DT an Occasional Thcatrc-GOer.
An occasional theatre-soer who occupied
a seat in the family circle of a city theatre
found there plenty of people OF evident
refinement and politeness, and the whole
atmosphere one of calmness and good
manners. There might be some question
as TO the manners involved in the reading
OF newspapers and magazines between the
acts. as many d!G. but this may be Gus
tom of the locality. The people there are
in a Measure by themselvc-: there is at
least nobody to be disturbed by their read
ing for there is nobody above them, and
there is nobody below them that can SEE
them.
1t seemed to the occasional theatre-goer
that most of, the people in tie family circle
were regular tieatre-goers; perhaps that
accounts for their reading between the
acts. when an occasional treatre-goer
would have found Things of interest to
him in the theatre itself and in the audi
ence. There seems also TO be people who
saw in the way of plays everything there
was going that was worth seeing, and at
4 moderate cost: seeing three or four plays
from this part of the house for what it
would cost to see one play from the or
chcstra chairs.
l;ut what struck the visitor most of all
in the family circle was that the women.
almost if not quite without exception, re
moved their hats. II may be that this Is
really more essential to the common COM
fort here than it would be in any other
part of the theatre; owing TO the pitch OF
the floor upon which the seats are placed.
