THE ALWAYS OBLIGING OFFICE BOY.
There was an incident which ed last summer which gives some faint idea of the mystery of a theatrical manager's suite of offices. A newspaper man who had an appointment with the manager, but not time to waste over the office boy, hastily entered the reception room. Are you ready to go out to lunch? he called to the) manager through the transom, of the private offioe. " Yes,", came the answer. " I'll be out in a moment." *• . '
Then the visitor turned to the office boy and said in the way of satire; — " Could you tell me if your boss is in?" " Well, really," said the boy, without any sign of -emotion, " I couldn't say positively, but my impression is that he went down to the seashore about noontime."
