FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

MESSAGE: British states
man Sir Austen Chamberlain,
like most men in public life,
found it difficult to stop talk
ing once he had started.
One night, he was the dinner
guest of England's leading
hostess. The food was good,
the wine well chosen and Sir
Austen was at his loquacious
best, relates Lord Beaver
brook in "The Decline and
Fall of Lloyd George"
He spoke at length on
Empire policy. Then he
carried on with a monologue
on Ireland. He followed with
a talk on the difficulties facing
his Party.
"His hostess attention
wavered. Something was
wrong. The butler was obvi-
ously tight. She scrubbed on
a pad. Summoning the butler,
she handed him the written
message.
1.-THE butler placed the note
on a salver, and walking I'M
steadily to Chamberlain, pre-
sented the message. Sir
Austen paused in his expoSi-
ton, fixed his monocle and
read:

him. There was not a single

and he was riding it right

Slow as we were going, we
