When you have all seen him do this of his own free will, and thereby put his own life as completely within the power of the law as we have put ours, you will know that he is really one of us, and will be under no apprehensions for the future. Take great pains with him, and as soon as he turns out a tolerably neat article, from the simple flatted plates, under your inspection, let me know.
Every member of this prolific musical family presides over something, if it is only one of the quarter tones that form the scale.

And think of me gettin' fooled that way at my time of life," he continued, as if in confidence to himself.
At 11.45 a being entered the rathskeller. The first violin perceptibly flatted a C that should have been natural; the clarionet blew a bubble instead of a grace note; Miss Carrington giggled and the youth with parted hair swallowed an olive seed. Exquisitely and irreproachably rural was the new entry.
Perhaps we should take this tragedy to heart, but we know that the Methodists are having the same trouble with their soprano, who "flats" and has flatted for ten years, and is too proud to quit the choir "under fire" as she calls it; and we remember what a time the Congregationalists had getting rid of their tenor.
