Excerpt from The Island Cure "Yes, it's a pretty enough dress, but it doesn't give the 1922 silhouette, Marianna, and if anybody noticed the waistline -" "Nobody would, with you to be noticed instead, goosie. You are the 'jool', why worry about the setting?" "Jewels are getting very fussy these days, Marie. An engagement solitaire cries for a platinum mounting, and then when the wedding comes, the bride's hand will not look well if the old-fashioned band of gold is used, and so, what with the high cost of rings and things, we spinsters multiply on the face of the earth." It was always amusing when Jean Beverley fretted, it was obviously such hard work for her to be disagreeable.
