SYNOPSIS Five days before ids marriage date, socially prominent Shariene Standring's fiance, Kent Damerell, millionaire sportsman, is called to New York to the deathbed of Cora Manning, a former love. Cora shot herself upon learning of his engagement. Kent grants Cora's dying request that he marry her. But after the ceremony, she rallies. Kent tries in vain to suppress the newspaper stories. He then telephones Shariene. Her mother takes the message. Though it is a terrific blow, Shariene takes the news stoically. To offset the publicity of her jilting, Shariene asks her best friend, Stuart Pennington —struggling young artist, who has loved her for years—to marry her. Though it is the realization of his dream. Stuart knows her proposal is a mere reaction to hurt pride. Enroute to Yuma, Arizona, for the ceremony, he wonders if it would not be wiser for Shariene to wait until Damerell were free. When asked if she would rather be married by a preacher than a justice of the peace, Shariene answers, "Oh, no! It’s just a legal contract.” Stuart winced, wishing it meant more to her than that. After the ceremony, as Mrs. Standriag leaves for home, she says to Stuart, “You mean everything to me. coming to her rescue like that. I only pray she will come to appreciate and love you. God bless you—my son!” CHAPTER XIV Shariene and Stuart watched the plane rise into the brilliant night sky and fade into the west. They were suddenly quiet after the hectic pretense of gayety. Stuart, who had feared the moment when the strain should slacken, glanced anxiously at Shariene. Her face looked wan in the moon light, and her eyes were shadowy, unfathomable wells. Sam hurried up to execute Lueien’s final orders. “The ship’s ready to go, Mr. Pennington. I didn't know whether you’d want to go on tonight, or wait till morning. There’s the suite at the hotel where your baggage is—all paid for—” “Oh!” declared Shariene “Well go on tonight. Don’t you think so, Stuart?" * "Os course,” he agreed. While they waited for Sam to bring their luggage, a strange shyness fell between them. Stuart tried desperately to make conversation. “Did you notice how the Colorado Rteer looked from the air in the moonlight? Like a tinsel ribbon dropped on the floor.” “Oh. I thought it looked black tonight—and turgid I” She shivered. “Odd how it can be so ugly here when it comes through so much beauty. Don’t you think it might carry reflections of that grandeur all the way to the sea?” "You mean the Grand Canyon, said Stuart. “I’ve never seen it” "You haven't? How could that possibly have happened, Stuart?” “Easy—l never could afford it. I came straight out to Hollywood from Paris, you know, and I had two dollars in my pocket when I got there.” . x „ "Then you’re not going to live a day longer without seeing the Grand Canyon. You —with your love of color! It’s so simple! We’ll just fly up there now, stay as long as we like tomorrow, and then on to Frisco. The steamer for Honolulu doesn’t sail till Saturday, anyway. 1 * "Why that’s —that’s great!” said Stuart, who was schooling himself to accept sudden changes in plans. “Os course, the pilot will want more money—” she said. “I have plenty with me. “That’s good. I haven’t a cent. I don’t even know if I brought a check-book. But we’ll square it all la " Don’t think about it, Shariene. Your mother has arranged for everything—” “Oh. of course, she would! But Stuart thought about it more than was healthy for him. Perhaps only another American could appreciate the ultimate humiliation toward which Stuart was tending. Shariene, restless, afraid of her thoughts, insisted on piloting the plane’ to the Grand Canyon. Stuart sank down in his seat, suddenly very tired. After a time he slept heavily, knowing that Shariene would not need him. . When they arrived at El Tovar, the moon had set and the Canyon was a great deep pit of blackness. Stuart peered eagerly into the

depths— but it waa formless, opaque. "Nearly four o'clock I” said Shariene wearily, “Um going straight to bed.” “I’d like to see the sun rise over the Canyon," Stuart said hesitatingly. "Os course!” she answered instantly, with evident relief. “I’d wait with you—but I’m just dead for sleep. When it gets light enough, walk down that way two miles to Yavapai Point. That's the best view.” He watched the East until a faint grey light pervaded everything. Mist stir! veiled the Canyon. But he could see the path faintly through the scrub pines along the edge. Day came swiftly. Stuart had to hurry to meet the sun’s coming at Yavapai Point. He had the world to himself, except for the birds and little animals scurrying through the brush at his approach. He would not look into those pearly depths at his left as he ran. The Canyon was coming to life, he knew. But he wanted to see it all at once, to let it burst in full glory on his sight. A signboard told him he had | reached Yavapai Point. His eyes I were on the saffron East. He I watched until the edge of the sun i rose burnished on the far horizon. | Then he looked down. The mist was evaporating rapidly. The sun’s rays touched pinnacles and strange, fantastic towers, and they began to glow with life, with unearthly beauty. Color! Stupendous color! Stuart had never in his life felt such shock on shock of color harmonies vibrating through his being. There was no relief for such beauty —but tears . . . Shariene found him there, hours later. “Had any breakfast, Stuart?” He turned dazzled eyes to her. “Breakfast? . . . Oh. I’d forgotten. Shariene, it was magnificent of you to bring me here. You don’t know what you’ve done for me!” “Really, dear?” Her haunted eyes softened. “I'm so glad! Now I want you to have breakfast and then you shall see the Canyon all day in a thousand different moods.” He got to his feet and slipped hi’ arm through hers. They moved off down the path toward the hotel. “Want to paint it, Stuart?” “Paint it? Oh—one could never paint that! But it gives one dreams. Shariene. Dreams of glory. Breath - taking conceptions of—- — “Eternity!” She dragged her arm awav from his and looked at him bitterlv. “What a terrible word! Forever! Oh, Lord!” • • » Julie had not gone back to Stuart’s house after the movies. She was still distinctly pinned bv Stuart’s attitude toward Miss Standring. That look he had given her when she had surprised him in the garden! He was a fool if he thought he could go on looking ga-ga at a <rirl who belonged to another man. It was time he got wise to himself and appreciated little Julie. She’d just stay away and see how he liked getting his own dinner. She called up her gang and they made whoonee in her apartment at the foot of the hill. “Where’s your famous beer, Julie?” asked a sleek-haired vouth, tasting the alcohol high-ball and grimacing. “Haven’t got any—down here.” “You mean it’s up at your artist friend’s ?” “It’s his beer. He buys the makin’s.” “Well, but you do all the labor. Why couldn’t we toddle up there and get some, Julie?” “Because we can't,” snapped Julie. “I’m not on speaking terms with the gent tonight.” “Oh, I see. ... But what’s the harm of me going up and putting in a requisition?” “You stay put. This alcohol Tony brought is plenty potent. Come on —tune in on some jazz. Let’s dance!” Julie did not awake until eleven the next morning and then to a frightful headache. That alcohol must have been wood, all right—to make her head feel so heavy. . . . As to her heart—oh no, it was heavy because of Stuart. Stuart loved another girl.’. . . But Stuart couldn’t have the girl; she was marrying the rich boy from New York. Julie sat up, grinning in spite of the thumping pain in her head, and be-

The

gan to pull on her stuekingt It was going to be little Julie’s turn today. She’d have to go easy—be very sympathetic and sweet to Stuart. She'd cook that Italian mess he liked. It was a lot of work and she didn’t bother with it often, but she would today. Now was her time! As soon as the Standring girl was married, she’d catch him on the rebound, or her name wasn’t .Julie De Vote. (Os course, her name wasn’t Julie De Vore—that was just her stage name. It would be awkward when she had to tell Stuart that her name really was Julia Sourbach, to have it legal on the marriage license.) Oh, well, what the heck! The main business was to make herself attractive to Stuart. She spent nearly an hour beading her eyelashes with mascaro. Then, before she left her apartment, she telephoned the grocery to have various Italian foodstuffs sent up to Mr. Pennington’s house. As she started up the hill, Julie saw that Mr. Jingle (the Pennington flivver) was in his niche. So Stuart nad not gone out this morning. Poor dear, he must have tried to get his own breakfast and she was afraid the coffee can was empty! She picked up the folded newspaper from the walk and tucked it under her arm without glancing at it as she hurried up the path Stuart would be working at his new picture, of course—that one about “Every Bitter Thing Is Sweet,” and so he’d never think of the paper. Poor ol’kid! Too bad to be in love with the wrung girl. But just let him wait—Julie could be pretty sweet, too! So absorbed was the housekeepermodel in planning her first words to the disconsolate Stuart as she fitted her latch-key into the door that she did not notice the piece of note-paper which had slipped to the floor from where Stuart had fastened it in the crack. She trod over it unseeingly as she entered the house. The big studio room was flooded with sunshine. The easel stood in the north window as usual. But the place was strangely silent. “Stuart!” she called, beginning to be frightened. And “Stuart!” she called again as she ran through the kitchen where the stale beer stood on the sink as she had left it yesterday afternoon. She wrenched the back door open. “Stuart!” Her voice broke as she saw the spade where he had dropped it across his little garden bed, when he had seen Shariene. She came back into the studio, glanced hopelessly into the bedrooms and then sat down slowly and stared at his easel. So, he hadn’t come home from the Standrings. Or if he had, only to dress and go back. Probably had a swell pre-nuptial party there last night. Only— they wouldn’t have the kind of a pasty that lasted all night and into the next day. . . . Her head throbbed intolerably. She went to see if there was any coffee left. A couple of spoonfuls. She put on the tea-kettle. While she waited for it to boil, she moved about restlessly, worrying. . . . The poor sap wouldn’t go and —kill himself, would, he? In a sudden panic she flew back to the studio and grabbed up the newspaper. She turned to the back page—to the death notices. Nerts! It wouldn’t be there. It would be on the front page. She flipped the paper over. . . . She stood very still, staring. Stuart Pennington’s face looked up at her. Shariene Standring beside him. It wasn't death—it was—what were the headlines? Married —Yuma—“l don't believe it!” Julie cried aloud in the silent room. The high raftered ceiling echoed her scream. “He would have told me!” She flung the paper down and ran into his bedroom. Her frantic gaze swept the dresser for the note she expected to see on the pincushion. The dresser was empty—empty. His brushes—she rushed to the closet. His clothes were gone —everything but his old gardening trousers and sweat shirt. “But he would have told me.” whimpered Julie. “He wouldn’t just leave—” She flung herself back into the studio. What was that folded sheet of paper near the door? She pounced upon it—her ow-n note. But he had written on it . . . Then it was true! (To Be Continued)
