So Wags the World.

Madge—l had a most delightful time at the piano recital this afternoon. Marjorie—How lucky you are to have a father who eau give you money ail the time for tickets. The overture must have been beautiful. Madge—l don’t quite recollect, but the pianist’s hair was just lovely. He must spend more time on it than on his practicing. Marjorie—How was the sonata? ' Madge—l guess that was all right, but I was in dreamland all the time, for I knew mine was the prettiest gown in the whole audience. Marjorie—Do you honestly think, my dear, that you derived any real benefit from the recital? Madge—l’m sure of it, love. All the music in my nature seemed to be aroused by the young artist’s skillful rendition, and the moment I arrived home I sat down to my piano and played a whole lot of those lovely ragtime coon melodies.—Smart Set.
