WELNELDAL Gupsy SYNOPSIS: Dirk Joris’ older brother Rupert has married Hope Devine on impulse, but instead of wrecking, the marriage seems like~ ly to endure. But Hope has slipped out of the Joris estate under sus- picious circumstances late at night, and Dirk, more for her protection than anything else, is having her spied upon by her chauffeur aud by a pair of private detectives. Dirk is ure whether he is in love e or not: he always has n her part in conversation with ads of Rupert's former fiancée, Elinor Fleming, however. Chapter 19 QUIET PARTY JT neither Martin nor the watch- ers at the gate brought Dirk news. No one had accosted Mrs. Joris, or had been invited into her car. No ene had left the grounds alone, at night. Hope, having shopped industrious- ly, was now enduring the ordeal of fittings at the various couturiéres. On Thursday of his second week, Martin's account of waiting at their doors was varied with the report: “And when the lady in the shop handed me the box she said, ‘1 know you look lovely tonight, Mrs. Joris.’ ” Dirk remembered that this was the evening of Elinor’s dinner. He was glad, for he had scarcely seen Hope of late. The three of them went to Elinor’s house together. Hope wore no jewels that evening, except a| Hope wedding Hi! Jewels, thought Dirk would have been out of place with her gown, a pale, silvery créps, trailing and simple. Her eyes looked darker than ever tonight. Her smoothly done hair was black as charcoal She might have worn the pearls, thought Dirk. They would have been perfect with the silvery gown and the dark hair. The ring—the wed ding ring—troubled him because it was new. If she had worn it at the start it would have had no mean ing. But now— He thought of the unbarred door between her and Rupe Isabel said, “Forgive me, “Forgive you? “Not for disturbing your thoughts.

You've known me all my life, and you've no illusions about me.” Her cool, slate-colored eyes dered him. “I wonder if that's she said. Dirk asked, “Why what?” His eyes had moved back to Hope across the table, a long table, banked with white roses, and starry with candles. He did not notice that Isa- bel had failed to answer him. poo party was not a lively one, but it would be duly chron- icled, and read about by any who room | g§ that some one was} yhow, I} Weather By MARGARET BELL HOUSTON might be inclined to assume that Elinor was either shocked or cha- grined by Rupert’s sudden marriage.

On Isabel's other side sat Freddy Nevin who had gone with her on the visit to Madame Chowdhury, and beyond Freddy was Natalie Page, down from Buffalo for the week- end. Joe Vincent, the artist-broker, who had given Natalie the little gold slippers, sat beside her too, obvi- ously finding her refreshing. There was also a Miss Tompkins, principal ; of a school Elinor had attended in her youth. Elinor was in mauve chiffon, a was her first formal party since her mother’s death. At her left, oppo- | site Rupert, sat Ernest Webb, placed there perhaps in honor of “The Black Swan,” “Or more likely,” thought Dirk, “because he can talk. It would have been deadly if she’d put Seymour there.” Seymour was well down the table Devine ; ‘Vetween Isabel's mother and’ Miss | Tompkins. Miss Tompkins herself could talk—fluently, emphaticaily.

Ah, yes,” at a reminder from Elinor, for they had all begun to listen. “You were not among us then. Well, you must have Dirk show you his cup. You have missed, too, the horse-show at Piping Rock. But there will be an- other soon in Madison Square Gar- den. Rupert must take you.” They were all talking of horse shows and tournaments now. All ex- cept Hope. Yet they liked her, Dirk felt, de- spite her quietness. He was stand- ing beside her at the evening’s end when Mrs. Sanford Joris came over and remarked. “I wish you had brought your gui- tar, Hope.
