The girl has a hard Time mothering them both. On the eve of a great opening night for her father, Janet accepts the proposal of Gordon Pryor, young but impecunious actor. In a restaurant she meets a young musician, Leonard Quigg, who attracts her. father drops dead after a brilliant performance, leaving her and her brother almost penniless. Gordon Pryor breaks his engagement and Janet realises that it was her prestige and not love for her that prompted his proposal.

She obtains the position of confidential secretary to john Montague, theatrical impresario. At the same time she quarrels with Leonard Quigg and he leaves her one ning, in a fury. On New Eve she accepts an invitation from David Churchill, a brilliant young doctor, who is secretly in love with her. He is married and makes her promise she will come to him for help in time of need. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.

It seems to me that were someone to settle a large sum of money on you, then you would be interested. I believe that at my age a man should be are offering me money, Mr. Montague?
