SCENE -- _An open air restaurant in the Champs-Elysees; the seats in the enclosure are rapidly filling; the diners in the gallery at the back have passed the salad stage, and are now free to take a more or less torpid interest in the Entertainment below._ _Enter_ TWO BRITONS, _who make their way to a couple of vacant chairs close to the orchestra_.
