The husband finds that love has
flown
And the wife has left his side.
To his friend she goes. for his false

The Maurice and Walton glide.
The gray-haired grandma nova
Near the house will never lurk.
For she glides with ease at the

CARI, daughter of a Gypsy violin

sort of Bunty un Scotched. She pulls
the strings for her widowed father
and her sister and brother. In the
last case the strings get just little

The temperamental brother who had
been taught TO play the violin by his

violinist at the party. This leads to
professional rivalry between father
