Dobbins is down as a little sawed of! man weighing about ninety g pounds That is to offset the widow. ! who is a large woman and weighs , about 200.” “Why don’t I say so?” he demanded as the smile chased itself around to the back of his neck all of a sudden. “Is there anything strange in the Booth Dramatic and Literary club giving a play by amateurs?” “But none of you are dramatic or literary." she protested. “You simply play billiards and poker and drink cocktails!" Mr. Bowser rose up and looked down upon her with a look meant to squeeze the life out of her body under a pres- sure of 400 pounds to the square inch. He fully intended to annihilate her then and there. but he suddenly re- membered that he wanted her assist- ance. and so he contented himself with saying: “It is really so; Here is my part. i just got it this afternoon. I also have the part of the Widow Winkle. and I want you to read it and give me the cues. We shall have a rehearsal in four or five days. I haven’t the slight- est egotism about me. as you well know. but I am ready to declare that “Is it really so?” queried Mrs. Bow- ser. with a puzzled look on her face. I expect to make a great hit as Dob- bins. l have been told over and ovel; again that I should have chosen the stage for a profession." “But you never said anything to me about it.” “But I’m going to make up for the part. ain’t I?" be queried. with a note or alarm in his voice. “Can you saw your legs of! to play this part?

She stands you up on a table. and you sing, Mr. Bowser. even if you could turn yourself into a bandylegged little man. what about «the singing? The house would either be convulsed with laughter or rise up and bombard you off the stage!"- ' “I understand. Anything else?" “Let me see. in the’second act you are brought onto the stage in a band- box. You might possibly get one foot into a buudbox. but what about the rest of your body?
