Unexperienced Servant Performs His Duty to the Letter of Instruction. Marcel Prevost, the French novelist, is a favorite in the American colony in Paris, says the Washington Star. "Whenever I see an English bish op," said M. Prevost. at an American dinner party, "I laugh a little to my self, for the good man's stately pres ence reminds me of a terrible mishap that once befell me. "I entertained a certain bishop last year at dinner. My butler, an elderly man, had brought in from a friend's house an inexperienced lad to help him in the dining room, and it seems that this lad, during toe laying of the cloth, annoyed the butler beyond en durance with questions as to his du ties. " 'How shall I hold the plates?' " 'Do I serve the dishes on the right or on the left side of the guests?' 'Must the bishop be served first or second?' "So he continued interminably, and at last the impatient butler said: ' 'AH you will need to do will be to stand behind the bishop's chair, and whenever. Ms lordship puts down his glass you must reach over and wipe his mouth with a napkin.' "That, as the butler' expected, si lenced his assistant. But the young man actually took the butler's ironical remark for a serious order. As soon as dinner began he stationed himself behind the bishop, waited till his lordship had drunk and put down his glass, and then, as deliberately as his nervousness would permit,' he opened out a large napkin and wiped the dig nified old gentleman's mouth.
