"My brains, madame, my knowledge of men, women and the world. Mydiplomacy, my power of attack. Wouldn't it be a fair exchange?" Mrs. Ames clasped her stiff hands together and dropped the lorgnonon the floor. "By George!" she cried. "You're a man after my ownheart. Look at me!

Iwas born as wild a bird, my dear, as yourself; but I never knew howto get out of the cage and I was always getting into new ones.
