I answered.
Coming out of church felt In my
pocket and was Mortified to fish out

I'm not as merciIess as that! Let
me tell you what Judge her by. Sea-
son after season she was cast In Lon
don companies for women OF the lower
type or OF bad morals. Sometimes
she was cold-blooded. scheming ad-
venturess, or a creature SO cruel, so
heartless and unwomanly that she
seemed a defamation of the sex.
Miss Paget was making name for
herself when an idiotic manager cast
her as sweet, refined. home-loving
woman. never sat through such a
pitiful failure. She played 1t for two
nights. then she wns thrown aside.
