Tho stage version of .Mr. Chester's
utiry w.i stronger In Its preservation of
the author's characteristic humor than
aa a sperlinui of dramatic writing. Its
method were In fact the most elementary
tht playwrights may well employ. Hut
fortunately tho tang of the humor was
to fctroni? and fresh that the audience
once the play had passed the slowness
f the opening scenes laughed almost
lonttnuouily at tho rcvnl.itlon of char
