LUXURY LINER —By Gina Kaus— (COPYRIGHT, 1033, BY GINA KAUS) INSTALLMENT XXV. AWKINS' questions about the price of German Shipping, Ltd., and Exl's order, made Traugott suspect something extraordi- nary was going on. He was an old stock exchange man and had & sixth sense for things like that. When Judge Pyrker passed by, cast- ing his customary eye on the quota- tions, Traugott spoke to him. “Have eard about German Shipping, 1td.> 4 “What's the matter with it?” ‘Traugott, with an extremely reserved | expression, replied: “Something is go- | ing on there” Pyrker was keen to know what, but | Traugott uttered only a single word: | “Stephanson.” | During the course of the next hour he had many more oracular conversa: tions like this. Perhaps Exl was talk- | ing. One thing was certain, that in | the period between 9 and 11 every one | was talking shipping shares—in the{ first-class lounges, on the sun deck, in the swimming pool, at the barber’s, in | the dining room. Stephanson’s name ‘was mentioned continually in connec- tion with the matter. Every one tried to pick the brains of every one else. Every one acted as if he were in the secret, and. finally, every one believed that he knew all about it Toward 11 the first buyers turned up | in the arcade—2.000 shares, 500 shares, 5,000 shares. There was ) Gellert, the beautiful wife of the Cologne banker, and Judge Pyrker of Berlin. | ‘Then came Mrs. Morris, the American, who bought “$10.000 worth.” One boy after another sealed envelopes to the radio room. One customer after another entered the | room. Meanwhile, the little telephone rang incessantly. A. Mr. Mayer of the second class bought 500 shares. “Send me the confirmation, the money is ready.” Traugott took all the orders and secretly was calculating his commi sion, but he, himself. remained firm He did not buy a single share on his own account. But Traugott was not the only one who had a big day. There was great activity at the barber's on C deck, for this was the night when the masquerade ball was to be held in the great ball room. In preparation for | this * function, which occurs during every crossing, the barber had on hand a number of different costumes which he hired out at considerable | profit. His closets were nearly all empty; all his pierrots and harlequins and fantastic costumes had been dis- posed of and he had only a few shabby old costumes left when Stephanson suddenly appeared. Stephanson wanted the most beau- tiful costume for Baroness Mergen- theim. He insisted upon seeing it. The barber—a daring old sea dog— took down a dusty, torn, conventional Carmen costume, and ventured to sug- | gest that it would show off the baroness to great advantage. Stephanson threw a terrifying look upon him. “You will make up some- | thing really distinguished,” he said. “I hope you have some artistic imag- | ination. ‘The price doesn't matter. Of | course, I shall buy the costume.” The barber's face became set and intense, then suddenly a convulsive | twitching passed over it. He had it. | “The baroness shall appear as the| Queen of the Night. The antique dealer in the arcade has a wonderful old In-| dian shawl—gossamer black silk in- | crusted with silver. We will drape it | around the body with suitable emblems—the sickle of the moon and stars—— “I shall look at the shawl” said Stephanson and left While the whole ship was preoccu- ran with piled with him, he himself was ex- clusively preoccupied with the prepa- tion for the evening festival. —He visited the antique dealer. He found the Indian shawl suitable and had it/ sent to Friederike’s cabin. | Then he entered Mr. Exl's shop and bought the 30-carat pure-water gem | which in the great book of diamonds is registered as ‘“Rosy-star.” | While most of the passengers of the Columbia were preoccupied with Stephanson_and_ Stephanson was pre- | occupied with Friederike, she, herself, | had a little, quite unobtrusive adven- | ture in the music room | She had gone there to play & couple of sonatas. She was no great planist, Marvelously COOL! Silk Mesh PANTIES $1.00 They're cool and airy, light and wispy—the very thing for warm- weat her wardrobes!

She had hoped to find the music room empty, but Luise Clemens was there already and, with- out ec‘;lusln: in her singing, had indi- cated with a friendly gesture that she should take a chair beside the piano. Down in the bottom of her heart Luise had not forgiven Friederike for her victory in the American suite. ‘Well, let this picture-post card beauty see how little an artiste of the first rank cared about Stephanson. Friederike sat still as a mouse and listened. She was thinking, what & marvelous voice! Lucky Luise, she thought, and how different my life would have been if, instead of a beau- tiful face, I had been able to give human beings joy and, at the same time, had the power to earn money. What use is it to me, she thought, that soon I shall have motor cars, Jewelry and costly furs? “It is more satisfactory for me to sing before so appreciative a public/’ said Luise when she had finished her aria, Song,’ from ‘Carmen.’ but in the meantime will you permit me to intro- duce you to——" “I shall now play you ‘The Second Movement' from my symphony,” said Vladimir, as if he hadn't heard Luise’s words at all. He felt for the keys of the piano at once. Well, that's that; he's an artist with incalculable moods. What can you do about it? In her 20 years' experience with the stage Luise had learned much about artists’ moods. She was no longer surprised at any thing. She sat down beside Friederike and listened. It is most important, said Luise to herself. that I should now be impar- tial and recognize what is good and bad Jlop al u NEW fio el THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

It is as though a wel. known folk song were turning up. But the rhythm is extremely Western, very modern. Yes, indeed, he has invention—he has something new. There are a lot of things which might be more tender. I shall continue to smooth his way. Even if I am not rich I have money enough to arrange a con- cert for him. I am no longer young, but he shall have the advantages of my maturity, my experiences and my dis- illusionments. I want to help him. I shall give him half the credit on my programs. I shall not permit him to waste his valuable time earning his bread and butter. I shall be a real mother to him . She heard a le sound by her side. Was it possible that the proud Fried- erike was crying? Lulse glanced swiftly at Viadimir. He was gazing at Fried- erike with the great, blind, clairvoyant look of musical inspiration. He had a very different expression on his face from his usual one and Luise knew at once that this was his true face. He ‘Wwas very young, seized with passion and completely pure. Friederike suddenly rose quietly and | went outside. In the midst of his laying Viadimir suddenly stopped as i he had awak- '“l Suffered 10 Years shall sing you next ‘The Card | With Itching Eczema” “. . . and after spending hundreds of dollars to clear it up, I tried Zemo and got rellef,” writes G.
