d voice suggest. Etta is fat and
contented, the mother of many, and fond of her fat, fussy
August, the rich brewer. John Redmond--a congressman, a
possession of the Beef Trust, I believe--but not so highly
prized a possession as was his abler father.

Freddie? I saw him a year ago at the races at Auteuil. He is
huge and loose and coarse, is in the way soon to die of
Bright's disease, I suspect. There was a woman with him--very
pretty, very _chic_. I saw no other woman similarly placed
whose eyes held so assiduously, and without ever a wandering
flutter, to the face of the man who was paying. But Freddie
never noticed her. He chewed savagely at his cigar, looking
about the while for things to grumble at or to curse. Rod?
He is still writing indifferent plays with varying success.
He long since wearied of Constance Francklyn, but she clings
to him and, as she is a steady moneymaker, he tolerates her.

Brent? He is statelily ensconced up at Woodlawn. Susan has
never been to his grave--there. His grave in her heart--she
avoids that too, when she can. But there are times--there
always will be times----

If you doubt it, look at her profile.

Yes, she has learned to live. But--she has paid the price.
