The life of the idle rich

    "There's and angel for you. Now I'll fix you a cocktail as a reward."

    

    "Well, mind you sterilize it carefully."

    

    Ruth laughed. Having gained her point she could afford to. She made the cocktail and brought it to him.

    "And now I'll be off and dress, and then you can take me out to lunch somewhere."

    

    "Aren't you dressed?"

    "My goodness, no. Not for going to restaurants. You forget that I'm one of the idle rich now. I spend my whole day putting on different kinds of clothes. I've a position to keep up now, Mr. Winfield."
