give him?

_A Voice_. Stomach-ache!

[_This suggestion, however, is so coyly advanced that it
fortunately escapes notice._

_Hyp._ Tooth-ache? Very good--we will give him tooth-ache.

[_The Audience receive this with enthusiasm, which increases
to rapturous delight when Mr. MIDGELLY's cheek begins to
twitch violently, and he nurses his jaw in acute agony; the
tooth-ache is then transferred to another victim, who writhes
in an even more entertaining manner, until the unhappy couple
are finally relieved from torment._

_A Spect._ Well, it's better nor any play, this is--but he ought to
ha' passed the toothache round the lot of 'em, just for the fun o' the
thing!

_Mrs. Midgelly_. I should ha' thought there was toothache enough
without coming here to get more of it, but so long as MIDGELLY's
enjoyin' himself, _I_ shan't interfere!

[_The Hypnot. has impressed his subjects with the idea that
there is an Angel at the other end of the hall, and they are
variously affected by the celestial apparition, some gazing
with a rapt grin, while others invoke her stiffly, or hail her
like a cab. Mr. MIDGELLY alone exhibits no interest._
