Making up Dr. Bill's Prescription.
P.S.—Mr. Jerome's new piece (which he describes as "comparatively speaking, new and original"), just produced at Terry's Theatre, is rather disappointing. Its title of New Lamps for Old strongly suggests a "Night's Entertainment." But when the poverty of the plot and the quality of the dialogue are taken into consideration, it would be almost too much to say that this pleasant idea is fully realised by the evening's performances. It must be confessed, however, that Mr. Penley, rising and descending in a dinner-lift, is (at first) funny; and Miss Cissy Grahame is ever welcome.
