Natural Mistake.

.Yeaye. the violinist, Is a shy and
quiet man, except when rufaed or an
noyed, and then he becomes sharp
of tongue. He was playing at pri-
vate house. and an elderly lady, q
passionate lover Of music, drew
closer and closer to him as he contin-
ued to play. She was so interested In
reading the score that finally her
head almost touched his.
Ysaye. who had been growing an.
grier every moment, suddenly ceased
playing, and, pulling out his handker-
chief, seized the amateur musician by
the nose. The lady was furious, and
her fury was not diminished when
the violinist said: -
II beg your pardon, but your nose
was so close to my face that
thought 1t was my own!" -
