If it had not burned, we should not have been concerned about it. Mysterious romances of the heart do not provoke an inquiry in Paris. “It is the only capital of pleasure where the heart is free; but the city authorities are conce-ned with fires. When the flame emerges from the heart, Paris is di-turbed, and when it reduces to asris an ancient house on the Faubov-g S8t. Germain, some explanation must be given.” He paused again. He had now gotten the cigarette lighted. And he sat down. “Madame has correctly expressed it. 1 am an old acquaintance, and I am more than that; I am an old ac- | quaintance who is very much inter- | ested to get madame's explanation be- fore the authorities in Paris as early as I can manage it. Her flight after the fire seemed to be unwise.. Even I had very considerable difficulty to find her.” The American spoke abruptly. “You seem very much interested in ‘Casque d'Or." " ‘Casque d’'Or, " 'he sald. “The expression is extremely 'happy. . Ma- dame's golden head used' to be the wonder of Paris when, she came up with it like a Minerva through the fluld floor of Paris.

And I am interested | again, more, perhaps, than monsieur can imagige.” The American spoke again abruptly. “You seem to know ‘all about ‘Casque 4'Or. " c Again Monsieur Jonquelle drawled his answer. “Ah! yes,” he said, “from her gol- den head to the blue pigeon delicately outlined on her hand between .'the thumb and the forefinger—every de- tail of madame has been of interest to me—has been, I may say, of anx- fety to me, And now I am con- cerned about the explanation for this fire.’ (Another installmént of “The Woman on the Terrace” wlil appear in our next issue.)
