almost reached the corner Of the piano,

retiring pianist the treble and the on

opposite the center Of the keyboard. He
settles into the seat. and now it is his
hand that strikes the treble. and now the
whole piano rcsounds to his resolute
touch.

when the piano had anything to say
about it. There never was q minute
