The latter gave it up in des- pair and sat down and wrote in reply, “I shall be most happy to dine with vou to-morrow at 6. Kind regards to your wife. Yours,‘etc”” In less than half an hour his friend appeared, breathless, at his door. “There's some misunderstanding,” said he. “I_wrote you a note asking if you could play the piano part of the trio at Brown's recital, and here you've sent me an acceptance of a dinner invitation; I'm sorry, but I didn't invite you to din- ner!” ~“Well” returned the other blandly, “I didn’t suppose you'd Teally sent me an invitation to dinner.
