when the curtain goes up. He is a
hard-looking customer with an Twill
be-obeyed chin.
Enter the beautiful princess, Terlia-

stage as she advances slowly toward
her fathers throne.
Are you adamart, father?" asks
she.

tones that cause shudders to go
through the slaves who are sprinkled
around the stage just for scenic ef
feet.

Don't talk to me of love. What
I wish Is for you to marry Count
