Story of "Tlie Little Urey Mouse."
Stephen Gray has married his sec-
retary, Beverly Arnold, and retired as
a broker to devote himself to writing
"best sellers," deeming himself pos-
j sessed of literary genius. His first
Iambitious work is a great success—
'bringing him fame. Gray, however,
i is a cad and of commonplace abilitv.
His overweening self-conceit blinds
htm to the fact that the stamp «'f
genius upon the books is due to h>s
wife—a gentle, self-suppressing Wo-
man without so-called "style" to
whom he dictated from notes and
who developed front these the splen-
did work for which he now takis io
himself the entire credit. He goes
further than ignoring her work. H^
criticizes her brutally because she
j tails to shine in the circle-which his
erary fame has opened to him.
When Beverly's widowed sister,
olet, without means and encum-
red with a baby comes lo Bevely
as her oonly living relative, Gray flies
into a rage, throws a bill at the sister
and ordered her from the house. His
wife is overwhelmed by his unreason-
ing rage.
Beverly, forced by her husband to |
accept invitations in which her name |
is coupled with his, sugers keen hu- ^
initiation by his comparisons of her
with other women. She is maddened j
when she learns of Gray's infatuatiou
for a well-known sculptress, Hedda,
Kosstei— in whose apartment she j
finally finds him and where the sculp- [
tress dubs her "the little grey mouse"
when she refused to drink a cocktail. |
Violet obtains a position in the ■
brokerage office of John Cumberland, j
friend of the Grays and a former
admirer of Beverly. When Beverly i
goes to Cumberland's office to call on j
her sister, Stephen finds her there,,
