La vie de Bohème.
First Bohemian (to second ditto). "I can't for the life of me think why you wasted all that time haggling with that tailor chap, and beating him down, when you know, old chap, you won't be able to pay him at all."
Second Bohemian. "Ah, that's it! I have a conscience. I want the poor chap to lose as little as possible!"
Little Guttersnipe (who is getting quite used to posing). "Will yer want me ter tike my bun down?"
Genial Doctor (after laughing heartily at a joke of his patient's). "Ha! ha! ha! There's not much the matter with you! Though I do believe that if you were on your death-bed you'd make a joke!"
Irrepressible Patient. "Why, of course I should. It would be my last chance!"
She (to Raphael Greene, who paints gems for the R.A. that are never accepted). "I do hope you'll be hung this year. I'm sure you deserve to be!"
