And to the astonishment of the rest of the passengers, the three of them dined together that night. Woody Taylor, she told them, had apologized most humbly for his unpardonable beha- vior the night before and had been forgiven, but he was not included in her little party. She was in white satin and wore pearls and looked incredibly soigné and lovely. And she put herself out to be charming to them both. They talked about the various cities of Eu- rope that they all knew and a few acquaintances that they had in com- mon. But although Austrelitz spoke of Russia, she had little to say about her own country, explaining that she had left home as a small child—just after the revolution—and had never been back there. Vronski’s name was not mentioned, although Bigelow had confided to Austrelitz the fact that she seemed to know something of the man she was disinclined to tell. Before they parted, Karsanakoff told them she planned to go to the Carleton and asked them to come to see her there. They both promised. The next day they landed. They had been so delayed by fog that although they were due to dock at one o'clock, it was after eight be- fore they finally got in. As one of Bigelow’s-trunks was mislaid, he did not reach his hotel until after ten.

MERLE SBOE TRE SEG ET ASF Austrelitz, Karsanakoff and Bigelow dined together that night, ~ However, he had cabled ahead for rooms and a suite in the tower was awaiting him. “The key is at the floor desk on your floor, Mr. Bigelow,” said the re- ception clerk, when he registered. A bell boy with his bags conducted Bigelow to th. elevator. On the thirty-second floor, as they approached the desk, Bigelow saw a girl in conversation with the floor clerk, And as he advanced toward her, he thought her quite the loveliest girl he had ever seen. She had thick tawny hair with gold lights in it, and skin of creamy tan. Unde: her dark coat, he caught a glimpse of a gold frock, and gold slippers peeped out as she turned for an instant on their approach. Her eyes were blue with very thick lashes and delicately arched brows, and her finely modelled features had distinc- tion. There was something arrogant about the tilt of her head—and in her eyes as they met his casually, a sudden flash of something like de- fiance. “Yes, he told me he might be de- layed,” she said in sweet, rather husky, tones, continuing her conversation with the desk clerk, “but he said he would leave his key for me so that J could wait in his rooms.” “Yes, miss," said the floor clerk, and handed out a key. The girl turned then, without another glance at Bigelow ana moved off down the hall. Who Was The Girl? IR sHew saw the bell boy who was waiting with his bags wink at the woman behind the desk. who What They Say Whether Right Or Wrong ' SCHSSHSSSSSHSSSESSESEESS Austin H.

Then Bigelow's key was produced and the bell boy led the way to hi$ rooms. But Bigelow was conscious of a hot feeling of re- sentment as he followed. What these hotel employes thought about the girl who had so interested him was plains ly apparent and-he was annoyed that she had been so indiscreet as to create such an impression. It was nothing to him, really, because he did not | know the girl. But she hadn't looked the type to be going alone to a man’s tooms. There had been something very fresh about ‘her—the - direct, candid eyes of a girl who had nothing to hide. . “But could one ever tell about girls, | nowadays?” he asked himself rather wistfully. The bell boy opened the door for him, raised q window, accepted his tip and departed. Bigelow crossed to the window and looked. out at the myriad lights of New York far below him. He had got the impression of a dream city as his ship lay in the bay, but he had thought that was due to the fog. His mind went back to the girl as he stood there whistling below his breath. Who was she? What was she? Who was the man in whose rooms she intended to wait? “Oh, damn the girl!” he thought in swift irritation as he turned from the window and opened a suitcase.
