Al Newman arranged all the theatre parties for his wife and guests. He opened up the piano as he spoke and turned to the musician. It took two hands to hold the dog’s mouth shut now; and for a minute that Billy thought much longer, it seemed as if he never would be able to make him keep quiet. But he succeeded at last, and turned again to see May Nell standing in full view with her finger on her lips. He went home after the engagement, walking on air and talking aloud to himself. “Gee!
