Dorothy Dix argues the business girl has a better chance at marriage than the society girl as men grow scarce. She notes working women meet suitors daily through proximity and office life, while society women rely on mothers and social events. A nurse's path is also cited as a reliable route to marriage.

A bride writes from Fernleigh about married life with Bobby including theater outings and plans to pair Eleanor Peckham with Mr Sinclair. She resists jealousy toward Mrs Bently, recalls past seaside summer tensions, and notes a dinner invitation she may accept despite lingering concerns about the rival.

Daysey Mayme Appleton writes of attending Madame Butterfly in New York, describing Italian singing, stage distance, and kimono visuals. She recalls a deserted wife, child, and maid, a fatal finale, and the audience’s size. A witty aside notes the suffragette angle and a striking safety pin detail amid fashion.
A rawboned youth asks Mayme if she ever tasted turtle soup. She replies no but adds with poised confidence that she has been where it was, signaling social experience in a flirtatious moment.
