If you wants 'em, why don't you come 'n' tell me to lead 'em in? Do you think I'm a mind-reader? "His voice gets wild again. "'Lead 'em in where? he says. 'Through the lobby? Do you want to buy 'em tickets at the box-office? Will you have orchestra chairs for 'em or will front-row balcony do? Now beat it up that alley to the stage entrance, you doddering idiot! he says.
Not because he does not want to see you cheated between you and the money-changer he is neutral but because he can no more keep out of a money deal than can a fly pass a sugar-bowl. The men on the outskirts of the crowd ask: "What does he offer?" The lucky ones in the front-row seats call back: "A hundred and eighteen drachmas." The rear ranks shout with indignation. "It is robbery!"
He knew of several attractive suites there at thirty-five dollars a week or, if she preferred the suburbs, he would forsake his beloved New York and return to the country. In his gratitude to her for being what she was, he conceded even that sacrifice. When he reached New York, from the speculators he bought front-row seats at five dollars for the two most popular plays in town.
This was he whom but yesterday Broadway had known as the Speed Kid, on whom head-waiters had smiled and lesser waiters fawned; whose snake-like form had nestled in so many a front-row orchestra stall. Where were his lobster Newburgs now, his cold quarts that were wont to set the table in a roar? Nutty Boyd conformed as nearly as a human being may to Euclid's definition of a straight line.

He turned to Astro. "And how about you?" "Why ... why ... I'll string along with you, Roger," said the cadet from Venus. "It's been a long time since I've seen a a " Tom and Roger laughed.

Once a fireman did not hesitate to faint, leaders and front-row and back-row girls alike had plenty of excuses for the fright that made them quicken their pace when passing some dark corner or ill-lighted corridor.
What a descent from the praises of God to the 'idle songs' fit for the hot dining-halls and the guests there! Amos was indignant at the profanation of art, and thought it best used in the service of God. What would he have said if he had been 'fastened into a front-row box' and treated to a modern opera?
It is often called the "Giant Daisy," and the name is very appropriate, as it is the common Daisy, to all intents and purposes, on a large scale. The small white Daisy, of lower growth, is equally desirable for front-row locations.
The last little bit, taken from the "Pedigree of Progress," had a great success, and all Barchester went to work with its hands and feet; all Barchester, except that ill-natured aristocratic front-row together with the three arm-chairs at the corner of it.
