Dubois, Mortimer, Bret, and the chorus-girl settled down to a game of nap. Dick, Leslie, and Montgomery were singing tunes or fragments of tunes to each other, and talking about 'effects' that might be introduced into the new piece. But would Dick produce a new piece?
Told me plainly that she'd thought, and hinted that she'd hoped, right up to last month, that Helen was going to marry a French nobleman, the Count de Somethingerino or other, who was crazy about her. So I answered that we'd both had a narrow escape, because I'd been afraid for a year that I might wake up any morning and find myself the father-in-law of a Crystal Slipper chorus-girl.
Inasmuch as it would be quite impossible to remain in the same boarding-house without seeing his face once in a while, she moved out the very next day. The "road" was not what she had expected, nor was the life of a chorus-girl as simple as it had seemed from her virtuous point of view. Before the first two weeks were over, she deserted the company, disillusioned, mortified.
It was a very real, unqualified compliment, and as such Rose understood it. Because, by a dancer, he meant something very different from a prancing chorus-girl. The others giggled and exchanged glances with Dave at the piano. They didn't understand. To them, the compliment seemed to have been delivered with the left hand.
She was a chorus-girl in a Broadway musical comedy. "'Jane, says I when I found her, 'I've got a friend from Texas here. He's all right, but well, he carries weight. I'd like to give him a little whirl after the show this evening bubbles, you know, and a buzz out to a casino for the whitebait and pickled walnuts. Is it a go? "'Can he sing? asks Lolabelle.
Whether he won or lost, at any rate he was in the ring, and could fight. So every night he sat in Alcala, and wrote. Sometimes he would only try to write, and that was torture. There is never an hour of the day or night when Alcala is wholly asleep. The middle of the house is a sort of chorus-girl belt, while in the upper rooms there are reporters and other nightbirds.
She had amused herself by trying to vizualize the sort of person who ought to buy it. It had found its proper buyer at last fulfilled its destiny. "Oh, Grant!" said John Galbraith. The queenly creature stopped short and Rose recognized her with a jump, as the sulky chorus-girl. Dressed like this, her twenty pounds of surplus fat didn't show. Galbraith walked over to her.
Bertie had not reformed when he had the chance; Flora, the chorus-girl of the Frivolity, had exercised too strong an influence over him.
She, too, had attained a good deal of celebrity in the musical-comedy world was to be one of the features of the cast. She'd come up from the ranks of the chorus. She'd been one of the ponies, years ago, in some of George M. Cohan's productions, and she was still just a chorus-girl. But a chorus-girl raised to the third, or fourth, or, if you like, the nth power.
"Really. Perhaps she has been a chorus-girl." "I'll bet she has, whether she says so or not." He gave a deep chuckle. Lady Holme's gown rustled as she leaned back in her corner. "And she's goin' to Arkell House. Americans are the very devil for gettin' on. Laycock was tellin' me to-night that " "I don't wish to hear Mr. Laycock's stories, Fritz. They don't amuse me."
