THE PERSON TO WHOM THAT LETTER had been begun sat just then at a table at the Ritz, smiling across the debris of dessert at—as no doubt she was perfectly aware—the prettiest and smartest young woman in a roomful of decorative femininity. Through the smoke of his cigarette he noted the fact with entire satisfaction, if without the least admixture of self-complacency. Pickles was thirty-five—more than half-way towards thirty-six.
