THE PATIENT AT PLAY.

Adviser. Have you ever been present at a performance of The Dead Heart?

Patient. No; and I know nothing of a Tale of Two Cities.

A. Then surely you are well acquainted with All for Her?

P. I regret to reply in the negative.

A. Perhaps, you have seen the vision in The Bells, or the Corsican Brothers?

P. Alas! I am forced to confess I am familiar with neither!

A. Dear me! This is very sad! Strange! I will give you a prescription. Go to Paul Kauvar. You will then be provided with a thoroughly enjoyable mixture.

[Exit Patient to Drury Lane, where he passes a delightful evening.
