Having achieved great success in society theatricals, she decides to go on the stage,| and is desirous of obtaining the | leading role in a play by Lady | Grey, played by Helen Light, an eccentric woman playwright. Much | to her amazement and disappoint- ment, Lady Grey flatly refuses to consider her for the part, and| will not even grant her an inter- view, thinking her far too friv- olous for the work. In utter dis- gust she decides to leave the city surroundings, which have become so hateful and go to the country under an assumed name. The second act takes place at her country establishment, where thoroughly enjoying the simple life, she succeeds in outwitting an uninvited and undesirable throng of city admirers, who have track- | ed her to her country home, and | come to pay her adulation.
