Justine Bannard has accepted for years the philandering of her handsome architect husband Chester. When he threatens to run off with the beautiful wife of one of his clients, however, Justine takes action. She does not scream, shout or cry, this woman of Roman virtue; that would send him flying. Instead she talks to the other husband; they agree not only to offer their errant spouses their freedom, but to give them allowances as well (in Auchincloss...
