; WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1936. olden ain by Hargaret CWiddemer SYNOPSIS: Iris Lanning just has found, with the help of Morgan Black, her brother Owen. Iris’ Aunt Ella had hidden the existence of Owen from Iris since childhood ; now tris, Morgan. Owen and Iris? Aunt Josephine are together at a hotel trying to warn to know each other Iris is a strange girl for the modern world—a kind of living sacrifice to the memory of her dead painter father. And Morgan is a young man -f some means who finds boarding with the Lannings very amusing. Chapter.11 MALE DRESSMAKER UNT JOSEPHINE had watchful black eyes and a face whose hard bright outlines displayed just enough make-up for the fashion. Her dress was perfection, black with a touch of red, and a string of odd ugly beads. The style of her clothes was so new Iris had never seen anything like them. Everything about her was as per- fect as the modeling of her hair and gown. She came to Iris, putting a firm possessive arm around her. “My own dear little niece!” she said. Her voice was certain and controlled, like everything else about her. Her manner had a dom inating enthusiasm. Morgan, watch ing her, and not liking her too much, admitted to himself that she did seem honestly glad to find Iris. “Sit down here, darling, and talk to me Think of finding a sister like this, Owen-why she’s lovely!” “| always thought you hated us and didn’t want to have anything’ to do with us,” Owen said with'a bluntness Iris liked. “Il was aw fully bucked about finding you did.” “Didn't Morgan expiain?” tris said a little embarrassedly;_she hat ed to seem to blame her augt,and uncle. “Oh, yes d Miss Ross, bitter ly. tightening ner arm around tris. “Ella would. She always bad -the romantic methods of the old-fash foned melodrama, from the time she snatched you out of the baby car riage and walked back to Persia with you. You poor child, never to know you had a brother!” “Well, | do now, id Iris quiet ly. smiling up at this kindly new Owen, who yet seemed so well known. “And now you must let us make you forget all the worry you've been through,” sald Miss Ross caressing: ly. “Darling child, you're lovely. All you need to be a complete success is a little expert attention from your old auntie. Stand up, darling. Owen look at her and tell) me what you think.” Iris knew the small signs of an noyance Owen didn’ know he showed. Uncle Will's own tiny knot ting of the brows before he smiled in acquiescence and did as he was told, being a gentleman who must yield to his women-folk. He said matter-of-factly enough, “She should keep to a certain amount of the pe riod note.” N ORGAN, in the background like a sentinel, moved a little as if this dialogue told him something Miss Ross saw it. She nodded and iled. “1 thought you were of the great world!” she said to him graciously “You're right—I'm Phina Weather: ley.” Iris gasped. Phina Weatherley— she might as well have said, in the eighties, “I'm Jean Worth.” Phina Weatherley, the famous couturiére, one of the few American dressmak ers who really had a great name! No wonder she was dressed so per- fectly, “The change of name was what made finding you so difficult,” Mor. gan said gravely. “You were hidden In plain sight, like the children’s game.” A hy} A little silence fell. Owen’ thoved’ restlessly; Miss Ross. and Morgan were quiet. Then Iris said. “Won't, you come to our house for supper? We'd be glad to put you up. | know Owen will like Uncle William a tdu Aunt Ella is in a sort of daze since Daddy died, but she would be glad. I know—” “That woman's house? Not yet!” Josephine Ross burst out, her smooth dominant manner breaking for the moment. Then she had her- self in hand. “Why not, of course?” she said. “But I'm afraid, darling, I'd only be a bother. Take Owen over, he says he insists on going. You might let Mr, Black dine with me in ex change.” So it was settled. The old resent- ments had flashed out for a moment, too blackly for Iris to insist. Be sides, though she admired her new aunt, she did want to be alone with her brother. He called a taxi, as casually as if he lived in them. That small of taxi-taking showed Iris what « different world he lived in To 3 ford taxis any time! T> side, another shy silence fell. Iris broke it. “Please tell me things,” she safd gently after a minute, leaning back in the old wreck which served Persia as one of its two official taxis. “Re- member, you may have known about me, but I never knew anything about you, at all.” “There isn’t much. I'm just an ordinary sort of person. Phina says ‘a regular Lanning’ when my slow ways bother her.” He smiled. “But, you know, it was strange that they did not tell you. Is Aunt Ella a little queer?” “No—oh, no! She's like somebody out of a romance or a tragedy. grown old, that’s all; one idea, and that Daddy.” “Ll never saw anybody like that,” Owen said, his face lighting. “Most of the people {| know want such little, shallow, day-by-day things. Even if she was wrong, it was a sort of epic wrongness.” Iris looked at aim in astonish: ment. Then she sighed. He was like the Lannings. Uncle William philos- ophized like that over things and did nothing about them. “As for Aunt Josephine,” he con tinued, “you know who she's. We live in New York. She made a big fortune in stocks, with the help of one of her clients; she took it out in time and still has ft, which ts queerer yet. She is trying to buy a Lofg Istand estate of extreme gran deur at'a great bargain.” Monit you like grandeur?” His voice had been dry. “Well, its not primary with me. Phina_ has a private fury driving her, I,think sometimes — being a Lanning!” “PUT you! Tell me about you!” She shook his arm affection ately: and he looked down at her with that grateful surprise at af- fection in his face which she knew so well in her uncle. but which from young, prosperous Owen seemed strange. “You really care? “Of course. {--1. think I'm very fond of you, Owen. {t's been being saved up, you know, all these years. D'you mind?” “Min He put his arm around her and kissed her, still shyly. “There. Now we're relations, Now tell me what you do for a living and everything. Is there a girl?” “Yes.” He paused after that; then went on again. “I hate telling you what I do; darn ft, | hate doing it. I've always wanted to be an archi tect. | am, theoretically—put myself through school at night—” “Why wasn't there money for day- time?” “Leavings and lashings. Money But nor time. 'm—" be flushed a shamed red. “I design for Phina. All day long. Darn well!” “1 should think you did! But why, if you don't want to?” “Nobody'd want to bea male man. tua-maker, but it's simply a ques: tion of decency. Do you know what Phina did for me? Supported me, sewing, after Mother died, just one woman alone. Borrowed money, heavens knows how, and bought into an establishment in New York —drove to the top, like an Alger book. Put me through an expensive prep; she’d have put me through college, only | wouldn't take it.” “I found when | was around seventeen that | could help her out with designing.” He flushed again at the idea. “Heaven knows why | can do it, when most of me hates it. Sigrid wants me out of it as much as | want to get out; but, ag . it would be dishonor ungrateful—not playing the game.” “Oh, you sound more like Uncle Wily fhan is canny or possible.” ‘Then she/pricked her ears at the possibility of a love-story. “Who is Sigrid; | € j * He ‘turned to her, warm, excited. Hjs slow voice quickened. :j°Shg"b the most beautiful person you ever saw. She's a sort of pocket Brunhbild; when she came to us first, at sixteen, she had hair like a yel- low cloak—and her eyes are the most beautiful things, like blue stars, like sky.” He showed himself, | up, and talked more coolly. “She's only my age, and she has a share in the firm. She began by modeling. Her parents were very plain people, | Swedish immigrants. She’s wonder- | ful. Wait till you see her.” “Are you engaged?” “Lam. She won't. Phina isn’t keen | on it either, of course—women don’t like to see their only nephews marry, 1 suppose. The worst of it is, Sigrid would if I'd take her money, and go over to France for a course in the Beaux Arts and then | come back here and set up for my: sell Margaret Widdemer) Iris tearns the truth about her fe tomorrow.
