“ AT THE OPEN DOOR to his chambers, the Duke was met by his man, Jameson, who said,"There is a LADY awaiting your Grace.""Well, Jameson, who is THE MIDNIGHT GUEST?""I really don't know, your Grace, THE MYSTERIOUS STRANGER is closely veiled and will not give her name.""Very well, there is no ALTERNATIVE, I'll see her, and, Jameson, remain within call.""GOOD EVENING, MY LADY OF DOUBT," said the Duke, "may I ask to whom—great heavens, Evelyn, what are you doing here at this time of NIGHT? Surely the WORLD'S END IS NEAR; WHAT WILL PEOPLE SAY? ”

“ I know you will ask BY WHAT AUTHORITY, am I interesting myself in your affairs, but do let us be COMRADES, let me tell you that the Major has been telling me about your FRIEND, THE CHORUS LADY, THE IDOL OF THE TOWN, as she is called—now keep your temper—please, only nice things to say—I AM convinced that she is a lovely and remarkable girl, and not a mere FLUFFY RUFFLES: the Major says she is not the daughter of THE ADVENTURER, Crow.""But, my dear EVELYN, you of all others; you are THE ONE WOMAN to interest yourself: it is amazing." ”
“ THEODORA'S HUSBAND, MR. OPP, is, by LONG ODDS, the nicest chap I have met in years: of course, it was a MARRIAGE A LA MODE, as he has inherited the greater portion of JOHN MARSH'S MILLIONS, and he has undertaken THE EDUCATION OF JACQUELINE, THE RED HEAD, you know: rather AN EMBARRASSING ORPHAN, but a jolly keen one, just the same: knows about THREE HUNDRED THINGS A BRIGHT GIRL CAN DO, and she will be A SUCCESS IN LIFE: but of all the FAIRIES I HAVE MET....""Inspector Morgan, your Grace," announces Jameson. ”
