WONDERFUL FEATS
A number of actors were dining when, they fell to comparing notes as to the marvellous feats they had observed and experienced. One spoke of a wonderful trick dog he had seen, while another described a pin he had once examined, on the head of which a prayer had been engraved. ‘That’s nothing,’ spoke up, one Thespian. ‘Last summer I went on a long cruise with some friends of mine, and each night we had to draw lots to see who would stand watch. One night, when all alone, I went to sleep on my watch. I think that is quite as remarkable as engraving a prayer on a pin-head.’
