Becoming a princess now would not work out, it would not transform her in any way: that was not herself, even if it had been recognized as her birthright once; she could feel the pain of every cuff she’d received in the past, while of marble floors and winged statues, of fine dresses and delicate pastries, no matter how many she experienced now: there was no connection there, none whatsoever.

Some of the art of Nell Brinkley (1886-1944). Entirely self-taught and one of the most popular illustrators of the first 30 years of the previous century, she also wrote engaging captions, as if in conversation with the reader, and scripted one-page dramas for her perfectly coiffed couples.

He is about to waken his friend, who will stretch a bit and go out and commit a murder or two." ;D The advertisement reads, "The U.F.A.
