Another lively rag by Adaline Shepherd, the third and final of her rags, one of which included the smash hit success "Pickles and Peppers" in 1906. She married soon after this and began raising a family and stopped composing, except for one final march in 1918. Published by Adelphi Music Co. in Chicago in 1909, was also published by Harold Rossiter in Chicago in 1910.

This is the third of all four of Adaline Shepherd's works being filed in my new set "Adaline Shepherd". She is one of my favorite composers.
