A Garriek Trick.

One Of the best Of the stories thAt
have been preserved relating to David
Garrick's remarkable faculty for i'm
%persOnation is that about n holiday
that he and the French comedian Pre-
Vile had when the English Roscius
was visiting in Paris.
One morning Garrlck and his French
colleague were waiting in a diligence
to start for Versailles. The driver re
fused to bulge until at least four pas'
sengers would undertake the trip. Gar
rick jumped out and. changing his gait
and voice. hailed the cOachman on the
box and got in again. He repeated the
trick three times, each time with a
different voice and appearance. The
driver. thinking he vas now full In.
side" j0yfully cracked his whip and
galloped away with the two actors for
his only passengers.
