Well, I left Peter--who isn't at all well; I hoped this trip would help his indigestion, but it seems to have made it worse!--I left him--er--in a room with a lot of broken-up Venuses --I thought it was all right; he was eating candy, and there wasn't a whole woman among 'em! (JINNY: How did you happen to bring over Ruth Chester?) Well, you know I always liked her. She never snubbed me in her life--I don't think any one you've introduced me to has been quite so nice to Peter and me as Mrs. Chester and her daughter. (JINNY: O they are real people!) Ruth is terribly depressed over something. She's thin as a rail and the family are worried. She says there's nothing worrying her, and the doctors can't find anything the matter with her,--so Mrs. Chester asked me if I wouldn't take her abroad. They thought the voyage and change might do her good, and I seem to have a more cheery influence over her than most people. So here we are! (As PETER enters Left, eating.) Here's Peter! How do you think the darling looks?
