Walter Howard, the London drama
tist, was leaving the stage door of a
theater one evening when an anemic-
looking youth stepped up and said:
Are you Mr.. Howard?" The author
replied in the affirmative, whereupon
the young fellow said he wanted to go
on the stage. Noticing his evident
unfitness for such life, Howard ad.
vised him to stick to his present oc-
cupation, whatever 1t was. II am as
sistant pawnbroker across the way"
said the ambitious young man. And
what do your people think of your
going on the stage?" asked Howard.

the jaunty reply, but shouldn't mind
