She had those q rial Lies that made her intensely attractive to sensual young mdn. She was the lithe, graceful tigress of the sweltering jungle of depraved imaginations.

With education and culture ehe would have been a society belie, for nature had done a good deal for her, but hod left the Lest part undone. Twd. words would pictUrte her pretty Well—an insipid Gwendolyn. I’ll tell you what she Was: she Wks a picnicker. It was het delight to rig herself up—never Id the best of but Jaunty and coquettish, not "loud” and brazen at all, but rather "rakish”—and seek large crowds, where ehe bodld read in men’s faces tbeir admiration of her. She liked a.frolic with goy young chaps with plenty ok money, and she could sell little mouthfuls of kisses and small liberties and caresses for a pretty ring or a pa.r of gloves. Was she innocent? Yes, except as above stated.
