His shoes were immaculately polished, and his young, healthy face glistened. "I'll tell you what I want you to do. There is a young actress, or amateur actress, by the name of Stephanie Platow, who frequents the studio of an artist named Cross in the New Arts Building. She may even occupy it in his absence I don't know. I want you to find out for me what the relations of Mr.
The coming of Stephanie Platow, Russian Jewess on one side of her family, Southwestern American on the other, was an event in Cowperwood's life. She was tall, graceful, brilliant, young, with much of the optimism of Rita Sohlberg, and yet endowed with a strange fatalism which, once he knew her better, touched and moved him. He met her on shipboard on the way to Goteborg.
Cowperwood replied very simply and smilingly: "Not very much. Perhaps Miss Platow there will tell you." He nodded in her direction. Stephanie, fixed by his cold, examining eye, shrank nervously, ignoring Gurney entirely. The latter perceived on the instant that he had a previous liaison to deal with an angry and outraged lover and he was not prepared to act either wisely or well. "Mr.
Quarrels developed over parts, respective degrees of ability, and leadership. Ethel Tuckerman fell out with Lane Cross, because she discovered him making love to Irma Ottley.

Here was by no means a Stephanie Platow, nor yet a Rita Sohlberg.

The commander of the Italian artillery, General Anthouard, was severely wounded and was compelled to give up his command. A gloomy night was passed at the castle Zazale.
And such silly snips as they were Stephanie Platow! and Cecily Haguenin! and Florence Cochrane, in all likelihood another pasty-faced beginner!
I know why you lie; you want to hush me up and keep quiet. You're afraid I'll go to Mr. Haguenin or Mr. Cochrane or Mr. Platow, or to all three. Well, you can rest your soul on that score. I won't. I'm sick of you and your lies. Stephanie Platow the thin stick! Cecily Haguenin the little piece of gum! And Florence Cochrane she looks like a dead fish!" I'd leave you that's what I'd do.
Their owners were now fully alive to the fact that a new financial rival had appeared who was worthy of their steel.
