like. The nail which shows a slight

nails with the brush when 70

with his wide acquaintance

surprised and delighted one day to
receive an invitation for her and
her husband to spend a weekend
at Fennellcourt. the country home
of Bert Hayman's sister.
She had not been sorry to give
up her theatrical work. and the
prospect OF meeting nice people. of
leaving for good and all the sordid,

knowledge OF rich men. in their

OF their women she knew little.

which went on in exclusive circles.
During the fortnight OF prepara.
