DANGEROUS LINES.
Lbere are lines that have to be cut out of playscripts as dangerous, because they invite sarcastic rejoinders (says a- Sydnev paper). One, in a plav staged within the last year, was, "Well, I'll go on with it; but I'm aoting the part rather badly." Sometody assented heartily. "You are!" on the hrst night. and tlie line was cut on the second. Another was: "If she .s dead. life will be worthless. Whv should I lire?" A husky voice which croaked : "Arsk us something easy!" killed that for good.
