THE MILLIONAIRESS.

Epifania Ognissanti di Parerga, the richest woman in the world, cannot marry unless her prospective husband is able to turn £500 into £15,000 within a three-month period. Dr. Ahmed el Kabir manufactures a deathbed promise that he made to his mother, pledging that he would not marry unless his prospective bride can take 35 shillings and earn her own living for three months. The heiress decides to turn her back on the world of men and retire to a Tibetan monastery once she has evicted all the monks.
