Tell me, when were you in New York ?" "About a month ago." "Well, didn't you see the Revue ?" "The last one?
Certainly." "That's where I shone--second girl on the right in the chorus, and I was in the eccentric dance with Joe Steams; some hit--what ?" "Yes, I remember now; they called you the Red Fairy--because of your ruby ring.

Well, it's no engagement at the Good Luck Dance Hall yonder, you can bet on that.
