Heaven only knows.

Tell me, how is that nice young attaché of yours that I met at luncheon the other day.
Von Bremer.
The nice young attaché has come to a bad end. I’ve had to send him back to Pomerania.
Lady Wanley.
Really?
Von Bremer.
The story is rather entertaining. There’s an American woman here who has a passion for titles, and it occurred to my attaché one day to introduce his valet to her as Count So-and-So. Of course she was full of attentions and immediately asked the valet to dinner. Presently the story came to my ears. I really couldn’t have my attachés playing practical jokes of that sort, and so I sent him home.
