LUXURY LINER —By Gina Kaus— (COPYRIGHT, 1033, BY GINA EAUS) INSTALLMENT XXIX. \HOMAS had found the masked woman with~ the seemingly familiar shoulder sgain. He had torn the mask from her face and, as a result, had got a sharp slap on the hand. He made his logies as well as he could to the mnle lad; ly. Nevertheless, he knew that Sybil was in the ball room. His every nerve told him so. One of the two-dozen-odd masked women was Sybil. At one moment he thought he heard her laughter behind his back; at another, he saw a familiar movement of the arms at the other end of the ball room. He was, as if bewitched, lured hither and thither, only to be deceived. He roved about, now here, now there, and nowhere found what he was looking for. Peace nowhere, Thomas sat down with Stephanson. Friederike was the only woman in the hall whose cheeks were not fiashed with dancing and wine. She there, cool and contained. “I have decided to follow your vice, doctor,” said Stephanson. remember our first talk? You recom- mended that I drop my harness, and I told you I was the slave of my meney. Pure nonsense. I have merely all my life been ol with a de- sire for power. That's all over! On this crossing I have become a changed man, no longer a public figure, but a private one. It's magnificent!” He reached for his glass. Thomas put_his hand on his arm. “Quite right,” said Stephanson; “you are quite right there, too. Why cham- me? I am drunk even without wine and it is bad for me. From now on I will live a more normal life. Do you know what we two have decided?” He put his hand tenderly upon Priederike's, so that it appeared as if she were really in sympatl with his plans. “We shall bulld a house for our- selves on the edge of the forest, in surroundings that are like paradise, where there will be eternal Spring. We shall build it ourselves, do you un- derstand, without carpenters or archi- tects. We shall take along a few work- ingmen and building material. For ourselves, we shall sleep in tents until e is finished. We shall hunt and plant vegetables and cook our meals at camp fires—" & With glow\n{l eyes he developed his dream of a rich man, who had all the | resources of civilization at his beck and | call—this dream of primitive life and| the struggle against the forces of na- ture. “R will be simply divine!” he con- cluded, and because Friederike's face| did not betray any reflection of his enthusiasm, he added, “We will, of course, take Boris along. He will ex- pand like a fower.” Thomas wandered through the ball room again, lured by a woman's laugh- ter. He then sat down for a while with little Milli, Wolzogen and Exl. Milli had been enjoying herself beyond meas- ure. Many men had told her how pretty she looked in her Dutch cos- tume. It was the first time in her life that she had attended a ball with rich people; and the first time she had| drunk champagne—heaven only knows what she had said or done, or why Wolzogen looked so bitterly glum. “It is a dirty trick,” said Wolzogen, without paying any attention to the dxorclster'l presence, “to steal a friend's girl.” ou haven't overexerted yourself,” , “and this girl is simply too good for you. “Don’t you put any such bees in her ‘yonnet,” said Wolzogen. “It will only #ut the notions in her head.” Milli sat between the two and acted as if the conversation did not con- sat ad- Y “Come now, time for you to go,” that she knew that she would have to make a decision. And her calculating little head wasn't sufficiently bemused not to have noticed how much more generous the jeweler had been with his money. It was he who had always ordered the champagne, and what & lot of rings and precious stones he had in his shop! “You left me in the lurch yesterday afternoon,” she said to Wolsogen, “and that was nasty of you. And the pink chiffon dress you promised me the day before yesterday—well, I am still wait- ing for it. And I like him better than you—that's the main thing! He is bet- ter-looking than you, even if he is older, and he has much better manners, and manners mean & lot to me.” _She leaned her little head on Exl's shoulder and kissed him behind the ear. This wasn't exactly the best of form, but the sensitive souls who de- mand correct behavior under all cir- cumstances had already retired to their cabins. “Haven't sy:yu had ln&ulh of it?” whispered Stephanson Friederike. “As you please!” Friederike's fa was unfathomable like the flawless blue of the sky. “Shall we go?” Stephanson led her to her cabin, and kissed her hand. “Come soon. You will be received like a queen.” Then he gently placed one of his fin- gers upon her throat: “Tomorrow one of the most beauti- ful diamonds in the world will rest there—Rosy-star.” Friederike's smile had the same alien impersonality as her seriousness. “I won't be long.” And in 10 minutes she had changed, and was ready, incased from head to foot in the armor of proud contempt for all the world. But she allowed herself a short re- spite. Next to Stephanson’s cabin a small stairway led to the upper deck. She had a sudden desire, after this evening with the fumes of wine and cigarette smoke to breathe a few breaths of salty ocean air. A few breaths of solitude. She m out upon the dark deck. She s eath the eternally restful stars and above the eternally restless ocean. At the same moment Viadimir left the bar. He was going to Luise Clem- ens, but Luise was not expecting him as early as this, and he wanted to take | & few breaths of salty ocean air and a few breaths of nocturnal solitude. He got on the upper deck. Between him and Friederike there was only the massive superstructure of the bridge. He could not see her, but he was think- ing of her. The vague nostalgia which he had known since his childhood days was in some strange way associated with Friederike. Not with the mar- velous “queen of the night,” but with the shy, vague girl who had wept in the music room that morning. Friederike on the other side of the bridge put her hand in the pocket of her old coat. She did not known why she had put her old coat over the gos- samer Indian shawl before going to visit Stephanson. It was five years old, the same coat in which she had gone shopping and tried to find work. In its pocket she found on old box of cigarettes. Suddenly she felt a great desire for a solitary smoke before she went to Stephanson—but she hadn't a match. Vladimir lit a cigarette, and wan- dered past the empty deck chairs. Friederike saw the burning point of the glowing cigarette and went toward it. She imagined it was a sailor or a steward. “Will you please give me a light? Vladimir mechanically held his wind- proof lighter toward her. For a few seconds a tiny meager flame gleamed between two human aces. her at all.
