What a pair they would make! It would be fun to match them for an evening, She grew en- thusfastic over the prospects of such a dinner, and tried to decide the menu she would serve. She was in a delightful mood until she realized that she would have to wash all these dishes. Damn! She was in the midst of the odious task when the telephone rang. She fairly flew to the instrument. Vey's voice! Oh! “r thought you probably would be rehearsing tonight,” he observed dryly, after the conventional greet- ing. “No.” How was she to tell him? “No, I've decided not to appear.” “Honest?* His voice sparkled, She thought: “You Have the {dea you've won a great victory, haven’t you?"

It’s no wonder there are so many di- vorces. I'll divorce every husband who makes it necessary for me to wash a dish.” “Really, now, EVERYONE) His infectious laugh put her in a joy- ful mood. F “May I come over and take out for a drive?” he asked. “It's too late, isn’t it?” “Oh, not Only nine o'clock.” “Tomorrow night.” “Not tonight. I have something yery important to tell you. What was it he had to say? A pro- posal? Her heart beat a little faster. “I'd like to walk around the block.” “Tl be over in twent-five mtfn- to you utes.” CHAPTER 49 This felicitous mood of Amoura’s waned as she awalted Vey Ardle’s coming, and her ruminations began to pencil faint wrinkles around her eyes ... A proposal? What WAS she thinking about. He still belonged to another. There was no doubt about It; her feeling toward Vey Ardle had changed, and was still changing. That awful feeling in her heart when he told her that he was married! . . + Judith! She didn’t lke the name. She tried to picture the wo- man in her mind. The impression mirrored had a vague resemblance to Efleen Reagan. And this mental picture of Wileen caused her to think of Philip Weinrich. She met Vey in the lobby and drew him into an unoccupied corner of the lounge. “I though you were going to let me lick the platter clean,” he laughed. z “Oh, everything's washed.” Sub- consciously she looked at her hands, which a little while before had been very white and slightly shriveled from the effects of the hot, soapy dish-water. Well, aren't you going to show me your little nest?” The intensity of his glance had caused her eyes to shift to the carpeted floor, but they raised at this, “No. It’s no man’s land,” “Well, as long {t's NO man’s land, I don’t mind.” She smiled at the suggestive re- mark. A passing woman caught her glance, and from the corner of her eye she could see Vey looking at the woman, too, Nothing was sald until the pretty passerby was out of sight, “Let's go for a ride,” Vey sug- gested, looking about him. “No, let's sit here and talk.” Was ill at ease. “But we haven't any privacy,” he responded with a peevish frown. She “There's enough.” She thought the remark needed a smile to ac- company /{t, The visiter lit a cigaret and stirred uncomfortably in his chair. Matters weren't progressing to suit hit “I don’t see how you could think of appearing in that show,’ ‘he ob- ved, after a moment of contem- plation directed at her ankles. Amoura’s eyes went down to her feet, which she held out after fur- tively glanciny at him again, “I think they're pretty enough to be seen on the stage.” “Qh, I'm not finding fault with your ankles. I wasn't looking at them.” “Oh! Then pérhaps it’s my arms you think would mar Mr. Van Pugh’s gallery of beauty f sudden mood to jolly him had come over her, but he took her seriously. “Not No!

I've agreed, although knowing mothe will raise the devil. You can get a divorce over in France on short or der, you know.

Then I'll ask you to marry me, and we can have our chance to be happy,” Vey Ardle went on in agitated earnestness, repeating himself. His dead cigarette dropped from his fingers and he lit another. A pretty young woman passed casually near them; Vey did not see her, but was aware of her rustling presence, “Let's get out of this damned place and go where I can talk to you. Everything here has eyes and ears.” Momentarily he lost his composure. Amoura arose, but waved down with the motion of a “hz She was ¢ him he was on the point of following sult. “No... Please go home now Vey . . . I want to think.” He regarded her for a moment, and recovering himself, got up ac: yulescent. She was not feeling very well, he imagined. Well, it was natural, She'd be all right tomor- row. Things like this’ were de- pressing. He wasn't so peppy him- self. Needed air. Silently they walked into the lobby again. There was a clinging caress in the little squeeze he gave her hand as he bowed a “good night, deares' Depressing thoughts hovered in- distinctly in Amoura’s mind as she disrobed and prepared herself for sleep; it was not until she lay back on her pillow, blinking at the lone ight, perched at the head of the bed, that she could distinguish them. What had happened? A few days before sho had to'd herself that she was in love with Vey Ardle, and all her thoughts were linked with him. Everything was changed. Was it because of her discovery that he was married? She was un willing to admit it. This world of chiffon, silk, satin, crepe de chine, georgette, kasha, Velvet, tulle, taffeta; of stifled yawns and polite smiles; of limousines, lap dogs and checkbooks; was, after all, enchanting. The next morning La Houbierre featured a showing of new coats and wraps, and the ex- hibition salon was nearly full of patrons—and — cqmpetitors. Ah, Madame knew ‘that Henrietta, for instance, would hurry back to her second-rate modiste shop and plagiarize all she had seer And that sketchbook t the corner was ald nish the “tL LaFarge ¥ few days. But Madame wa ticularly resentful. She had done the same thing herself in the early days. After all, it was a compli ment to have your Ideas stolen.
