Munitions of Wa ER decision made, Elise con- sulted not even Brunel, but set about her task of fur- nishing her chambers with- out regard to cost and with the ut- most expedition. She had the draw- ing room redecorated in pink and sil- ver, very delicate shades, against which she set rosewood furnishings. There were no pictures, and the fur- niture was sparse, so that the room looked bare, except that the rich blue carpet was piled here and there with cushions—cushions all colored lke flume, like the rainbow; cushions downy and soft, round. hexagonal, square. It was these cushions, arranged in heaps, so that one might lounge on them with ease, that gave the room that touch of comfort of which its bareness deprived it. The lighting was indirect, and it filtered from round the edge of the carved ceiling, its rays made pink by colored glass. The dining room Elise found more easy. She provided no table. All meals would be taken on the floor. There were divans set about, low, in the eastern fashion, and little wheeled stools. The walls of the room were paneled in ‘ebony. relleved by thin white mounting. The celling was red, rich red, with two great hanging lamps from Persia providing all the {llumination. The floor, left bare, was polished, and spread with gorgeous rugs. There was not a chalr in_the room, mnor yet a plcture. In fact, Elise had Neither pictures nor prints, nor mural decorations of any kind throughout the place. Her bedroom was white. White paneled walls, white ceiling, cream carpet. The bed was white and very low, with arched head and foot, carved richly. The dressing table was a white spinet, its keyboard covered by plate glass, its top profuse with flowers. The only lighting was on this spinet, and that was golden, with gold silk shades over the lamps. Her maids were easy to get, for she was willing to pay high wages. and she chose two pretty girls, much alike, blonde. For the man servant ultimately she had to seek the aid of Brunel, who secured her a giant, six feet two, black as coal, and dumb. During this time she received many presents, and among them were two Alsatian’ wolfhounds and a little mon- key, whom she called Neppo. The man-servant had informed her that nis name was Louis, but that being far too ordinary she rechristened him Baba, and informed him of the fact. He accepted the demomination with an expansive grin and no protest. To Baba she handed over the care of the Alsatians and Neppo, and each morning it was Baba's duty to take all three for an airing in the Champs FElysees, the great dogs walking be- fore him on a double leash, Neppo perched either on his shoulder, or on The back of one of the dogs, with whom he_had become remarkably friendly. It was, ag Brunel observed, a wonderful advert{sement. Fach fortnight she ran down to the coast and saw Marthe, who was slowly gaining strength, and would ultimately, according to the opinion of the famous specialist whose name Lapierre had given to Elise, be fit to undergo the operation which might be the means of restoring her to an active part in life. CHAPTER XXX. Sowing the Whirlwind. The months drifted on. la Phalene was now more than famous. Offers had poured in on her from London and New York. She could have danced in Buenos Aires for a nightly salary such as a great wrima donna might ask. Yet she re- fuyed them all, inclining only for a mongent toward the New York offer, but nitimately refusing to accept it; for sthl, deep down within her, she clung o the hope that Kendrick might one day return to Paris look- ing for herd She still had made he! nced that dance which name—The Valley of Hope Forgoten—but now it was augmented by\ other, more exotic movements, and\ ‘:u only performed y specfal requs . . DY e had wel. oyt to gather about her an army of agmirers,.and in this ad been sucoessful beyond her wildest numbers. The glory of Lolette was as nothing beside the effulgence of this new star. Money passed through her hands like water rushing swiftly over the bed of a steep stream. There were four cars. Her chauffeur, in his gray and mauve, was the smartest in all Paris. Yet despite all this riotous expendi- ture, despite the lavish display, the costly gowns, the wonderful furs, money went every month to the ac- count of Marthe Duchanier, thou- sands of francs, tens of thousands of francs, money beyond Marthe's wildest dreams and expectations. For Elise, Is one respect, at least, kept her head. These men who gathered about her, wealthy, admiring. luxurious in their habits, paid for every smile, for every favor she designed to bestow on then. | It was the Count Mordac himself who gave her the Hispano Suiza, with its gray and mauve bodywork to match her chauffeur’s uniform. its satinwood interior panels, its luscious upholstery. Brunel remonstrated with him on the gift, for the two had drawn to- gether again somewhat during this period. “That woma tounds me. Why that car, my friend?" Mordac shrugged his shoulders. “One pays tribute,” he answered am- biguously. Brunel smiled. dreams—if safety lay in said Brunel, “as- id you give her “In the hope that there may be an investment locked up eh? Hear this, my friend. She is beyond us, that woman, She is on a great flood of her own loosing. It is & game for fools.” “So that means T Mordac smiled. am a fool. Well, Brunel, we all have our follies.’ Brunel tried to read his eyes, but failed. He told himself that Mordac did not give cars for the sake of giving them. Ir fact, probably Mordac alone read Elise truly. He alone realized that she withheld herself from everybody. Yet the many would disperse. He had seen these things, on a lesser scale, before. The luster of La Pha- lene's fame would wane. Then the followers would drop off so that the few would be left. Of those few, as- suredly the Count Mordac would be one. And Brunel would be another, for Brunel stood by always because he must. Mordac wondered If, at the last, it would be as at the first, a strugile between himself and Brunel. Of that third man who had inter- vened In the beginning—the Ameri- can, Kendrick—he did not ~think: he had forgotton him. Yet he filled La Phalene's thoughts. §o the thing crescendoed. It be- came shrill and devouring. _Elise, having started it. found herself grip: ped in it remorselessly, beyond all hope of escape. Luxury was piled on luxury. Kntertainment succeeded en- tertainment. The newspapers were filled with her doings, her dinners, her moods. The whirlwind was at its height. The sowing was broadcast, scattered, and only God knew where the seeds were falling. It could not last. Something must break. It could not last. Tomorrow—The Princely Lover. PHILIPPINE VOTE MONDAY Bill to Consider Independence for Islands Before House Then. Chairman Fairfield of the House in- sular affairs committee has been in- formed by the Republican steering com- mittee that if Congress _adjourns by June 7 it will be impossible for the House to consider at this session his bill providing for Philippine inde- pendence twenty vears hence. Mr. Falrfleld urged that the pro- posal be put to a vote next week, but was told by the committes which di- rects the legislative program that calendars were too crowded to glve it right of way. Decision to put action on the meas- ure over until the December session was reached coincident with an- nouncement in the Senate that the territories committee on Monday would take up the bill by Senator Johnsom, Republican, California, which is similar to the Fairfeld measure.
