Material realism on the stage is not only dull, it is deadly; the drama dies at its touch. The limitations of reality on the stage are absurdly narrow; the great central facts of life become impossible of presentation. Nothing is left to the spectator; he is inert, a cypher, a senseless block.

Nothing was lost but a penny cheque-form, and even Sims though Mayes would care nothing about that could only be searched and then released, for the cheque was perfectly genuine, and there was no charge against him.

I got it from Rumbald a great while ago a year or two at the least before the Plot. It was on my mind to send it to you; but I did not. I had no idea that it was of the least importance."

I'll go now, and I'll tell you all about the business when time permits." Here is the case of the bond robbery as it had been presented to Martin Hewitt that morning, while I was at St.

But it's too late now, of course, and, besides, you could not have read the cypher. 'That's an easy matter, Logotheti answered.
