Patient Walters.

The Italian singers, Sofia and Giulia Itavogli, who became quite suddenly the delight of London musical circles, are very modest and patient women. They can bear to defer enjoyment even of the praise which is theirs by right. Mademoiselle Giulia was ouc>day talking with a friend, who happened to make some remark abotlt the enthusiastic notices the two singers had received from all the London papers. “Yes, everyone tells me so,” replied she in her pretty, broken English, “and we get such a lot of funny little rolls of de brown paper sent to us many time in de day, and we puts dem all in dis big dtawer, to save up when we go home ” | Here she pullcd/out the drawer, and displayed a quantity of newspapers, ■ hot one of which had been opened! 0 * “But don't you look at them? 1 ! asked the visitor. “Oh, no, not yet wc look; but see here! dis is a book which shall contain dem some day.” Thereupon she displayed, with great pride, a perfectly hew and empty scrap-l>ook, which, she confessed, had attracted her by Its red and blue index letters. In that “some day” would see her fame enrolled, but she was contend to wait for leisure to accomplish the pleasing task.
