What's the matter, dear? You seem annoyed. Hen. {nervously pacing). I'm so worried about that mort- gage coming due, that I can't rest a minute. Mrs. B. Let's see. What is the amount now? Hen. Sixteen hundred dollars. Mrs. B, Gracious ! That much ? When must it be paid ? Hen. The day after to-morrow. Mrs. B. Well, that will give you a breathing spell in which to raise the balance. You must have saved up the greater part of it. Hen. That's the worst of it. I haven't made anything to save up. Mrs. B. Do you mean to say that you haven't any money at all? Hen. {taking change from pocket and counting it). Forty- eight cents. That's all. Mrs. B. Heavens ! What shall we do ? Hen. That's just what I'm trying to figure out. Mrs. B. What will happen if you cannot pay it ? Hen. We'll lose the place. Mrs. B. Well, I hope you're not going to mope around and allow us to be turned out of house and home ! Why don't you stir around and hustle up something ? Hen. I told you I have exhausted every resource. I don't know which way to turn. Mrs. B. That's just like a man ! Don't give up without an effort ! There must be some way of raising money ! Hen. There's the piano. 3 4 " WILLIAM Mrs. B. What ! Sell my beautiful piano ? You ought to be ashamed to ask it ! Enter Jenny, door c. Jen. a letter, sir. {Hands letter to Hen.) And, please, sir, would you be so kind as to pay me my last month's wages? I want to send some money home. Hen. (Jiesitatingly). Why — a Mrs. B. Don't bother Mr. Bronson now, Jenny. I will attend to that a little later. Jen. All right, ma'am, but please let me have it to-day, as I promised the old folks Mrs. B. Very well. But please don't interrupt us now. I will call you a little later. Jen. Yes, ma'am. I'll come as soon as you call me. \^Exit, door c. Hen. More trouble. Mrs. B. {sighing). Yes. They never seem to come singly. Hen. {opetii7ig and reading letter^. Good ! The very thing ! Mrs. B. Who is it from ? Hen. Alfred Blossom. Mrs. B. And who might Alfred Blossom be? Hen. Why, he's my old college chum. He's coming to visit us. Isn't that immense ? Mrs. B. WellJ I fail to see anything to enthuse over. We certainly are in no condition to entertain visitors in our present circumstances. Hen. But we must. Alfred is a very rich man. Mrs. B. Little good that will do us. Hen. You don't understand. Alfred was my dearest friend at college. We must entertain him properly and use every endeavor to please him. Under such circumstances, do you suppose he would permit us to lose our home ? Why, the amount would be a mere bagatelle to him. Mrs. B. Oh, I see what you are driving at. His presence may prove most fortunate. When is he coQiing ? Hen. To-day. Mrs. B. {rising). Well, then, we must get right to work. We haven't a thing to eat in the house. You must hurry to the grocer and the butcher, while Jenny and I straighten up things. Hen. What shall I order ? " WILLIAM *' 5 Mrs. B. Everything. I told you we haven't a thing in the house. Hen. Now, don't get flustrated. Mrs. B. Flustrated, indeed ! You evidently don't realize what it would mean to me to be without a home ! Hen. Too bad we haven't another servant. Alfred was always so particular about everything, and Jenny doesn't make much of an appearance waiting on table. Mrs. B. You might get a professional waiter for the occa- sion. The caterer has them on hire. Hen. The very idea ! I'll stop there on my way down- town. Good-bye, dear {kissitig Mrs. B.), and don't forget to have everything in good order, for Alfred is so particular. \_Exiti door c. Mrs. B. {calling). Jenny ! {Lnpatiently .) Jenny ! Jen. {outside). Yes, ma'am. I'm coming ! Enter ^Y.'^.y door c. Mrs. B. Get your broom and dust-pan at once. We are expecting company and the house must have a thorough clean- ing. Jen. Yes, ma'am, ai;d you said Mrs. B. Don't wait to talk about your wages now. Mr. Bronson will attend to that when he returns from down-town. Jen. Yes, ma'am. I'll hurry. \^Exit, door c. Mrs. B. I do hope something will come of this. I'm sure I should go clean crazy if we had to struggle along without money mucli longer. {Enter Jen., door c, with broom and dust' pan. She drops dust -pan and commences to sweep, R. c.) Wheough ! What a dust you are raising ! Move the sofa out of the way. Jen. Yes, ma'am. {Drops broojn and pushes sofa.) Mrs. B. Don't shove it ! Lift it ! You'll break off that loose leg ! Jen. {tryi?ig to lift end of sofa). It's mighty heavy, ma'am. {Bell heard.) Mrs. B. There's the front door-bell. See who it is. Jen. Yes, ma'am. {Drops sofa and exit, door c.) Mrs. B. {sitting on sofa). I declare, I'm all tired out be- fore we're even half through. Enter Jen., door c. 6 " WILLIAM Jen. It's a gentleman, ma'am. Mrs. B. Very well. Show him in. (Rises expectafitly.) Jen. Yes, ma'am. Enter Alfred Blossom, door C. y[\\%.^. {disappointed at his appearance'). Ah, yes. You're the waiter. Your establishment is quite prompt. I suppose Mr. Bronson made all arrangements concerning your wages, etc., and all I will say in addition is that your name is to be <' William." We always call our waiters <' William," and no other name would seem quite natural. (Al. stands mildly astonished.) Of course, you are accustomed to answer to the name chosen, as if it were really yours? Al. {hesitatingly). Why — yes — of course — I Mrs. B. And don't forget to address me as **madame" — we never permit any familiarity from our servants. And, if possible, affect an English accent. It always adds tone to the occasion. {Ki.. bows gravely. Bell heard.) That's the base- ment door-bell. It must be the provisions. Run down quickly, Jenny, and take in the things. You may remain and prepare for luncheon. I will have William do the cleaning. Jen. Yes, ma'am. [Exit, door c. Mrs. B. And now, William, I will explain a few things to show you the importance of your deportment being absolutely correct and in good form. We are expecting an old college chum of Mr. Bronson's. He is a very particular individual, but also very rich. An unexpected change in our financial condition will compel us to appeal to him for assistance, and, quite naturally, we desire everything to go off without a hitch. So, if you are exceedingly careful, and execute my wishes to a successful termination, I shall feel inclined to add a few dollars to your usual wages. (Al. bows and smiles.) What are you laughing at ? I must again warn you not to attempt any famil- iarity while you are in our employ. Now move that sofa over here. {Points c. Al. hesitates, then goes to sofa and pushes it, e.) Don't shove it ! Lift it ! You are liable to break off the loose leg ! Al. Perhaps I might be able to repair the leg. Mrs. B. No. Don't bother now. There isn't time. Our visitor is liable to arrive at any moment. Al. Very well. Mrs. B. And don't forget to say <*madame." "Very well, madame." " WILLIAM " Al. {repeating). Very well, madame. {Lifts sofa, c.) Mrs. B. Now take the broom and sweep where the sofa was. (Al. takes broom; aivkwardly endeavors to sweep.) Not that way ! Gracious ! How awkward you are ! Let me show you. {Takes broom and sweeps.) There! That is the way to sweep. {Hafids broom to Al.) Al. {awkwardly trying to imitate her). I trust that you will pardon me {hesitates as if nearly forgetting to say the word), madame, but I am not quite accustomed Mrs. B. Oh, I see. I presume you consider it beneath your dignity to act in any capacity but your professional one of " waiter." Very well. I suppose I must do it myself. Al. I am very sorry {hesitates), madame, but Mrs. B. Never mind. I have swept before, and I suppose I can do it again. {Takes broom.) Turn around and let me look at your back. (Al. does so.) That suit of yours is rather well worn and doesn't look very well for a high class waiter. Go down to the kitchen and ask Jenny to give you Mr. Bron- son's old dress suit. It will look much better than what you have on, and, as soon as you have changed, you may install yourself in the foyer and act as ''butler." Al. Yes, madame. \_Exit, door c. Mrs. B. I don't care much for his looks. I suspect that his ignorance of sweeping is assumed, and in reality is sheer laziness. {Sweeps and dusts. Gets out of breath.) Not a very pleasant occupation, to be sure, but I suppose it must be done. {Sweeps and dusts.) What a disappointment it would be if, after all this trouble, our visitor should refuse to let us have the money. {Siveeps, dusts, etc.) Enter Jen., door c. Jen. Please, ma'am Mrs. B. {pausing). Well, Jenny, what is it? Jen. It's about that waiter, ma'am. Mrs. B. You mean '' William." Tell me quickly ! What has he done? • Jen. Nothing much, ma'am, only he asked me such funny questions. Mrs. B. What about ? Jen. Why, he wanted to know if you are rich or poor— and how much are you worth — and whether the house is mort- gaged — and if Mr. Bronson has much of an income— and 8 " WILLIAM '* Mrs. B. Goodness gracious ! He must be looking things over and preparing to rob us ! I must count the silver spoons before I permit him to handle them. Run out and see if Mr. Bronson isn't coming. We must take every precaution before it is too late ! Jen. Yes, ma'am. [Exit, door c. Mrs. B. I didn't like that fellow's looks the minute I saw him ! And that supercilious smile of his is utterly beyond my comprehension. Enter Hen., hastily, door c. Hen. What is the matter ? Has Alfred arrived ? Mrs. B. No. It's about that waiter Hen. I'm sorry, but they are all engaged. I couldn't get one anywhere. Mrs. B. Couldn't get one? Good heavens! Call the police ! We'll all be murdered ! Hen. Why, what on earth is the matter? Mrs. B. {gasping for breath). You say you didn't send any one, and yet you had scarcely left the house, when a fellow called and went to work ! Hen. Aha ! Sneak thief, eh ? Well, we'll settle his hash in a hurry ! I'll telephone for a policeman, and as soon as I get out of the room, you call him and keep him here until I return. Don't let him know that I am at home, or he may try to escape. [Exit hastily , door c. Mrs. B. Goodness gracious ! Are we never to have an end to our troubles ? {Calls.) William! {Louder.) William! Enter Al., door c. Al. Yes, madame. {Has changed to a misfit, discarded dress suit. It is very tight, and the trousers and coat sleeves are so short that his legs and arms are fully displayed.) Mrs. B. Well, that isn't a very good fit, is it? Al. {surveying himself). It wasn't exactly made for me. Mrs. B. Strange that you haven't a presentable suit of your own. I thought that every waiter was obliged to have one. Al. Well, to tell you the truth {hesitates), madame, I haven't had much experience as a waiter. Mrs. B. {restraining agitation). Aha! I see. Sort of a " WILLIAM " 9 "new man at the business," eh? And, pray, what was your previous occupation ? Al. (Jiesitatiiigly'). I — I — was — a — minister. Mrs. S. a minister? (Aside.') A likely story, indeed. {To Al.) And where were you located ? Al. In Philadelphia. Enter Hen., door c. Hen. (eyeing Al. cautiously y then appearing to recognize him, suddenly realizes who he is^ rushes down and seizes him by the hand). Hello, Al, old man ! How are you? Al. Well! It's the same old "Harry"! I'm awfully glad to see you ! (Hugs Hen.) Hen. (noticing suit Al. is wearing). Been getting wet? Mrs. B. (dumbfounded). That's your old dress suit. Hen. Well, what on earth is my old dress suit doing on Alfred ? Mrs. B. On whom ? Hen. Alfred ! My old chum, Alfred Blossom ! This is my wife, old man ! Al. (bowing). I am pleased to know Mrs. Bronson. Mrs. B. Catch me, Henry, before I faint ! (Falls into Hen.'s arms.) How will you ever be able to forgive me, Mr. ^Mr. Al. You may call me " William " if you like.
