IRISHMAN'S READY RESPONSE

A PLAYER formerly in the support of

conflict between that nimble-witted actor and
a scene manager named Jack Quinn, who at
the time was employed at a Western
theater.
Quinn was fully aware of the extreme
nervousness of the star, who is frequently
upset by the slightest unnecessary noise on
the stage: so during Mansfelds engagement
he took every precaution to see that the
actor was not annoyed.
Nevertheless one evening the latter made
vigorous objection to a couple OF scene
shutters, who after some laborious work in the
flies came down to the rear of the stage breath
ing rather heavily as result of their exertions
Mansfield CHANGED to be near them when thev
stepped to the stage. He nearly froze them
with a look. Then he summoned Quinn.
The breathing of those men annoys me-"
he said.
"Id answer to the law if 1 stopped il" was
the ready response of the Irishman

Mermaid'S ChriSGm as
By Carolyn Wells

Way down in some deep ocean place
There lived a little mermaid fair.
She had a roguish, smiling face,
Lovely blue eyes and golden hair.
All mermaids, as you know, are clever;
But this one was the smartest ever
Thrifty she could brew and bake;
She'd turn out many dainty dish.
A sponge-cake of sponge she'd make,
And jelly of a jellyfsh.
The ocean-current she thought tasty
For making currant jam or pastry.
She was a merry, madcap child.
She sometimes tore her pretty frocks,
As on a sea-horse fierce and wild
Reckless she rode DER reefs and rocks,
Or sometimes, on a gate-post perchin',
Talked with a ragged young sea urchin
Her home was in a coral. cave.
She slept upon the ocean bed,
Rocked by gentle, passing wave,
A sheet of water DER her spread;
And on a white, foam-crested billow
Rested her fair head, for pillow.
Her mother said on Christmas Eve:
Pray, hang your stockings up, my
dear;
And Santa Fish will come and leave
Some gifts and Merry Christmas cheer.
Perhaps he'll bring-the kind old fellow
A new wax dolphin, dressed in yellow"
Then by the coral chimney wide
The little mermaid hung with glee
Her pretty stockings side by side,
And wondered what her gifts would be.
Her mother said: Goodnight, my
grille!
Hasten to bed and waken early"
But, goodness me! There's something
wrong!
I've made a terrible mistake!
l should have known it all along
My deep apologies l make.
I'm SO abashed! It's really shockingi
Why, mermaids never have stockingl
