Antony met Cleopatra and became mad with love. " He was a. man of the finest culture in business knowledge. It seems to be a law of human psychology that the greatest personages fall the hardest. Antony forgot his duty to his firm. He lost his business acumen. Soon he lost his job. Some Cleopatras build and some destroy. Pick the right one. Marcel Steinbrugge.

The secret of the sudden prosperity of chorus girls has been exposed at last. Poor things! People have lambasted them unmercifully for riding in their own limousines and wearing costly furs. Have there been insinuations? I'll say there have. But there really is no mystery about it at all. The chorus girls have things they didn't used to have for a very obvious reason. This reason is explained by the fact that ten years ago they were getting only $25 a week. Since then their salaries have been increased. They now get $40 a week.
