The Synopsis.
At a recent performance at a certain
thuater an overdressed woman, after
rustling ostentatiously Into her seat,
llnally composed herself and looked at
her program. Opening it at the sec
ond page of the bill, she saw In promi
nent letters "Synopsis," which she pro
nounced in an audible tone, though
speuklng to herself.
'Tshaw," she remarked, turning to
her companion,' "we've seen this here
play before! Let's go home."
But after a whispered objection on
the part of her friend, who probably In
as diplomatic a mauner as possible ex
plained her mistake to her, she settled
back In ber seat, apparently somewhat
discomfited.
