LADY MACBETH LOVES CHOPS
Butcher Attributes Genius of Artist
and Actress to Fact They Eat
His Meat.
It Is not altogether easy to imagine
a Lady Macbeth eating chops. Yet
her greatest impersonator got her in-
spiration from them, if one may rely
on an altogether delightful author-
ity. On a certain occasion, writes Mr.
E. V. Lucas in his recent book, "The
Second Post," the painter Ilaydon
paid his butcher, who reciprocated by
expressing great admiration for the
artist's painting of "Alexander."
"Quite alive, sir!" said the butcher.
"1 am glad you think so," said the
artist.
"Yes, sir; but as I have often said
to my sister, you could not have paint-
ed that picture, sir, if you had not eat
my meat, sir."
"Very true, Mr. Sowerby."
"Ah, sir, I have a fancy for gen'us,
sir."
"Have you, Mr. Sowerby?"
"Yes, sir. Mrs. Siddons, sir, has
eat my meat, sir. Never was such a
woman for chops, sir! Ah, sir, she
was a wonderful crayture!"
"She was, Mr. Sowerby."
"Ah, sif, when she used to act that
there character—but Lord, such a
head, as I say to my sister—that
there woman, sir, that murders a
king between 'em."
"Oh, Lady Macbeth."
"Ah, sir, t'.iat's it—Mucbeth. 1
