her head (она наклонила голову) to look at her nose (чтобы посмотреть на
свой нос) in her vanity-case-mirror (в свое зеркальце в косметичке). "I
must've got that (я, должно быть, получила его) from the fire (от пожара;
fire — огонь)." She scrubbed the smudge (она потерла пятно) with the
corner of a handkerchief (кончиком носового платка).

nose (пока гладила по своему носу) with a powdered pink disc

Spade put his hands (Спейд положил свои руки) on the arms of his chair
