Then she would like an aristocratic
negbborhood-a neighborhood where
there are some nice young fellows who
are likely to inherit some good old ducats
but il must be the sort of place where
aristocracy and shabbiness go hand in
hand. since on account of the war she
must ecouomize, and the girls have got
Ia wear last seasons frocks fixed over.
Then she feels as if she had longing to
get where she would be free from the
bondage of servants and able to eat her
dinner as if she were an independent wo-
man So she travels for hours on a hot
DAY over a dusty road only to find that
advertisements do not always picture
things as they are and that the country
home so beautifully described doesn't COM

the city. Then she goes cavorting around
trying to find a resting place where there
is country air. Thank goodness, you
can have plenty of that without being
charged extra for every mouthful, plenty
of grass, mountains at the back of it, wa
ter not very far from it, fresh butter and
vegetables, milk from COW and not from
