The air, one supe said, seemed to be full of fine cut tobacco and spruce gum, and Mary stood there and leaned against a painted rock, a picture of homesickness. She was pale about the gills, and trembled like ap aspen leaf shaken by the wind.
I am boiling sap on the old stove set up here in the chip yard. I have ten trees tapped and lots of sap. I wish you had some of the syrup. Your mother came back yesterday and she is now busy in the kitchen, good natured as yet, if it only lasts. She has hired a girl who is expected soon. Your letter came yesterday. No doubt you will have fun acting as "supe" with the boys.
The Cows is also frequently dried in the Sun and pounded afterwards and used in thickening Supe and Makeing Mush.
A supe threw a bucket of water over him, previous to his mounting the imitation cliffs, the curtain would roll up and behold the hero as he just emerged from the sea in his glistening rubber suit. The applause was tremendous. The last night, every one being paid off and feeling good, Paul stepped behind the curtains in his suit to receive his customary ducking. The bucket of water was missing.
Ingomar seemed to notice that something was the matter, and he kept his face as far from Parthenia as the rules of polite society would admit, and the theory that she had been eating onions, which was advanced by a bald-headed man in the dress circle, found many believers. However, that was not the case, as we found by inquiring of a gentlemanly supe.

"Here's some grape juice!" Gertie Black hold out a glass to me.... "No, I won't drink that stuff," I replied, with all the petulance and ill-humour traditionally allowed a star. A Sig-Kapp, whom I had got into the play as a supe, slipped me a drink of real booze.... I had to run to the toilet three times before the second act, I was so nervous and excited.
"Well!" observed Rimrock as he gazed grimly after him, "I guess that will hold Mr. Jepson." "Very likely," returned Mary, "but as a prospective director may I enquire the reason for this outburst?" "You may," replied Rimrock. "This man, Abercrombie Jepson, was put over on me by Stoddard. I had to concede something, after holding out on the control, and I agreed he could name the supe.
Several times last night, when the supernumeraries entered the arena to drag out the bodies, the young ruffians in the gallery shouted, "Supe! supe!" and also, "Oh, what a coat!" and "Why don't you pad them shanks?" and made use of various other remarks expressive of derision. These things are very annoying to the audience.
