A Low-Brow Goes to the Opera.

There is story in the December
American Magazine in which one who
was more interested in the baseball
scores than the opera is put into a dress
suit and taken TO the opera house by his
wife. He tells about it in the December
issue of the American Magazine and
says:
"A young lady friend of ours awak.
ened us to tine great Importance of the
Forthcoming grand opera course. She is
intensely musical, thrills with music to
her finger tips. She was so enthusiastic
about the grand opera and was so blank
when she ascertained | never had seen
or heard grand opera, that would have
gladly invested in tickets even had they
been less than four dollars apiece. At
four dollars one was, of course, assured
of an extra treat even beyond the new
dress tie that the Lady-Who- Married Me
insisted / get for myself and the new
gown that we insisted we get for her.
by advice of our friends, in which the
Lady Who Married Me concurred, we de-
cided to start in with THE Rhine Gold,'
albeit The Flying Dutchman' sounded
good to me. 1t struck me as perhaps of
a more lively nature, and promised ac-
ton. Still, The Rhine Gold was recon-
mended highly and if it was anything
like 'Brewster's Millions or other plays
dealing with wealth, | wanted to see
it,"

She Made You Feel Like a Christmas
Present.

In the Christmas number of the WON
ans Home Companion writer says
about girl in story:
"She seemed, in truth, to swing an
invisible wreath of youth and gayety
and happiness in herself for being gay
and young. She wasn't an everyday six
teen year.old. She had quality about
her which gave you feeling that every
day was Christmas, and she was the
present. All this because she had
given him three quarters of an hour of
light -heartedness! He was certainly ex-
aggerating her And his feeling of being
quite thirty seven-no, not thirty seven
so much as practically forty-came dis
mally back while he disinterred his own
skates, and a pair which he judged to
be hers, because they were the smallest
there.
"She was waiting for him on the stone
of the terrace when he came out, dane.
ing little and singing to herself for
sheer gayety of heart.
'She looked so light and little and
childish that for a moment more he felt
immeasurably, horribly old Then as she
ran forward to him with little cry of
pleasure at his promptness. the youth
feeling surged up again. He caught her
hand in his, as if they were both chill
dren, and they laughed as their eyes met
and ran nearly all the way to the little
lake together"
