Even more, they began to play an important part in the mise en scène, and were drawn on tiny scale as habitations of the actors in the play who thrust heads from windows no larger than their throats, or who gathered in gigantic groups on disproportioned tessellated roofs.
As this custom had in it something more than a touch of vainglorious emulation, I well can understand why it has fallen into desuetude in the vicinity of Vièlmur where Misè Fougueiroun's inspired kitchening throws all other cook-work hopelessly into the shade.
In Italy the play-bill is renewed nightly, while in this country and in England a drama, if good, may have a run of over a hundred representations." Nothing surprised Salvini more during his stay in the United States than the splendor of the mise en scène of some of the New York plays, but he accounted for it easily enough.
'But he'll pass the nicht here, and maybe apologise to the Baillie in the morning, said another. 'Oh, pardon me, you mistake me, said Merton. 'This is not a stupid practical joke. 'It's no a very gude ane, said the policeman. Merton took out a handful of gold. 'I wish to pay for the broken window at once, he said.

The writer cannot rely upon the reader's perspicacity to make the right inferences, or upon his knowledge to supply sufficient data; nor can he make his characters tell all that he may want told about their past and the life of the world in which they live, and through the influence of which they have become what they are. The novelist must construct for the reader the mise en scene of his story.
