An amusing little story is being told of Miss Lillah McCarthy, .the well-known actress. 1 ' When she 'was 10. .years old, her father, wishing to train her. memory, bribed her with ''a sovereign to learn the second book of "Paradise Lost." So rapidly did she, commit_ the words :to memory that he again offered her -10s to learn '.'Romeo and Juliet," which was- no light undertaking. Success again followed,, and he repeated the ■ offer witli "Macbeth." So aujckly -did . Miss Lillah rattle . off tEe lines that her father remarked., "It is becoming, rather Next, time you shall have sixpence I" An.old friend of the Trustees of the Wellington Benevolent Institution paraded at Tuesday's meeting (says the "New Zealand Times.")- She was most voluble, and in a long conversation with various trustees, touched widely on her lifers history, her . troubles, tribulations, . hopes, plans, joys and other evolutions. ;From grave to gay and back again she wandered, and bursting into tears she said she wished she had been in the Penguin." Then she mentioned that "God is everywhere, hut mostly in Heaven," and resented a proposition, that she should go to the Chjistchurcn Home. One trustee, in coaxing her to be a. good, old and go to Christchurch, ;m"entibned that he would he inChristchurch at Easter and "would call and see her." The applicant replied: "My days for sweethearting -are past," and amid the general laughter that folio w.ed.the facetious trustee was silent.
