ACT I

SCENE. — The library of CYRUS MARTIN'S home in New York City: a very handsome room, in tapestry and dark oak. Doors up left, down left, and down right. Books, chairs, divans, as necessary. Down left is an oak typewriting table with a typewriter on it. It is obviously out of place in the room, and is evidently only a temporary arrangement. Handsome walnut furniture. Mantel set on mantel. Fire dogs and irons in fire-place. All-over carpet. Handsome, busts on bookcases. Chandelier and four brackets. Curtains on windows at back. It is seven o'clock in the evening — early September .

AT RISE: MARY GRAYSON is seated at typewriter. She strums the keys idly and indifferently with one finger. She might hum a turkey-trot, keeping time with a one-finger accompaniment. In a moment JOHNSON, a typical English butler, enters from door upper left .

[MARY primps, and sits at typewriter again, and idly touches the keys with one finger, maintaining an eager watch on the door. She hears someone coming and hastily and busily bangs away at the typewriter . RODNEY MARTIN enters door left. He is a young man of twenty-four with a certain quaint frank charm, in spite of his funny little mustache, English, morning coat, spats and white carnation. He is by no means brainless, but simply undeveloped by reason of the kind of life he has led under appallingly frictionless conditions RODNEY.

 CURTAIN
ACT II

SCENE. — The private office of the 13 Soap Company. A rather commonplace room, furnished comfortably but not elaborately. The walls have several posters extolling the virtues of 13 Soap — such as "Do you believe in signs?" "13 Soap is unlucky for dirt." "Be Clean. Cheap Soap for Cheap People." "13 Soap is the most expensive soap in the world, one dollar a cake." There is a particularly large stand in the upstage wall bearing the legend

"The average cake of soap gives you 56 washes. A cake of 13 Soap gives you only 24 ,

But

What Washes!"

There is a door on the left and two more at right. At back are windows through which the audience sees the building across the street literally covered with 13 Soap posters. There is a desk, down center, with chairs, cabinets, hatrack, a water-cooler, a safe, etc., which complete the equipment of the room. Light oak office furniture. Three telephones, one on stand right, one on desk left, and one on desk center. Shades on windows. All over carpet. Four brackets .

The time is one month after the first act, about ten o'clock in the morning .
