No, it was only a new comic-strip idea: the tacitly bickering couple, Mute n
Deaf.

Cf. Finnegans Wake, p. 16, where they are still speaking to one another but
in some ways might as well as not be:

Jute.--Yutah!
Mutt.--Mukk's pleasurad.
Jute.--Are you jeff?
Mutt.--Somehards.
Jute.--But you are not jeffmute?
Mutt.--Noho. Only an utterer.
Jute.--Whoa? Whoat is the mutter with you?
Mutt.--I became a stun a stummer.
Jute.--What a hauhauhauhaudibble thing, to be cause! How, Mutt?
Mutt.--Aput the buttle, surd.
Jute.--Whose poddle? Wherein?
Mutt.--The Inns of Dungtarf where Used awe to be he.
