are poured to gether upon the lloor and the farmer and his sons or hired laborers beat the mass into the proper consistency with heavy Hubs widely flattened at the ends until they look something like roughly shaped snow shovels Then a lump of leaven is added and the mass is given ten or twelve hours to rise Next it must be kneaded a process which is accomplished with the feel Shod in heavy sabots

The late Lester Wallack once told a story of his still more famous father James W that as either an actor or a mauager he couid never tolerate the ballet even where it was seemingly necessary according to custom as part of an entertainment or in the opera One day there came to him a frieud a man about town who said My dear Wallack it is very curious that you do not see the beauties of imagination shown by the poses of the ballet Go ing on in this strain the visitor at last wore out the patience of the actor manager who replied Look here it is bad enough to stand these absurdities in an opera but though I can comprehend people sing ing their joys 1 am hanged if 1 can their dancing their griefs The Judges Advice In sentencing a forger of banknotes to death an English judge said
