S CHARLES GRANT
SYNOPSIS Jasper Ingram, wealthy promoter, takes his secretary, lovely Cathleen McCarthy to his "Grar.gelands” estate so he can transact business while attending the charity garden party given by his wife, Laura. Cathleen, the sole support of a large family, is fascinated by the surrounding luxury and wishes she could attend the party. Marian Alspaugh, the golddigging wife of Homer Alspaugh, Ingram’s confidential secretary, is cigarette girl at the fete. She flirts with the Marques d’Alhues. Mrs. Ingram's special guest. Seward, Ingram's son. is infatuated with Arlinc Martin, an actress, but the ruthless Arline—realizing the senior Ingram could be more helpful in furthering her career—tries to impress the latter. Later, he calls at her apartment to listen to the reading of a play, the success of which means the arrival of herself and its author—the man she really loves. Failing to interest Ingram in the play. Arline tries to win him over by flirting boldly with him just as Seward arrives. The boy leaves in anger. Next day. at the office. Ingram tries to explain to his son, but the latter refuses to listen, referring to his father’s other affairs. Seward tries to make an appointment with Cathleen but. ’ due to the difference in their social status, she refuses. The persistent Seward arranges with Alspaugh to let him know the next time Cath- | leen works over time and so meets her "by accident” at dinner. She finally agrees to an appointment. Mr. Ingram gives Cathleen's brother, Joe. a position. CHAPTER XI When it became plain that the royal lady to whose household the Marques d’Alhues was attached, . must flee from Spain, he had taken j command and had got her over the frontier by a surprise dash into ; Biarritz. Returning alone, he had salvaged what he could of his own ; possessions, including the family l jewels, a few objects of art. and all the cash he could lay hands on. However officials on the frontier found and confiscated his jewels and gold Fortunatc-ly they did not.
in searching him, find the yards upon yards of precious lace wrapped about his waist. Ever since, he had been living on that lace, or more literally, upon the money he had received for it in London. Alas, now that fund, never large, was nearly exhausted. D’Alhues had been admirably fitted to his office in the Infanta’s service. It had been necessary for him to understand all sorts of intricate points about precedence, etiquette, and tradition. To arrange and supervise—that had been his work, and he had been far from an idle man. Now idleness and a rapidly emptying exchequer were all he had left. He thought a good deal, accordingly. about the seductive Mrs. Alspaugh. who had met his overtures so warmly at the Ingrams’ garden-party. There he had met other attractive women, but except for the interlude with the cigaretteseller, he had found himself constantly attached to his mature and stately hostess. As a result, the slim laughing person in pale chiffon intrigued him and he regretted his failure to find her before leaving Grangefield. Marian, however, had no intention of letting their acquaintance languish. \\ hen ber excitement of the afternoon had died down, the image of the handsonre- Spanish Grandee was her most persistent memory. She simply had to sc" him again, end she lot the social lines she had thrown out lie uirtwitehed, while she was held in the restless preoccupation of a romantic dream. Ennui v.a:. eating at the soul of d’Alhues as he busied himself mounting new oaths with which to curse, democratic Spain and bnurgoise America. Ho was engaged at this pleasant pastime when, upon ans.. ering the phone, he surprised to hear the flirtatious, h'ghpitched voice he had thought never to hear again. Lack of familiarity with the language, blinded him to the commonness of Marian’s inflections and choice of words, hut the voice itself had a pretty music, sugge.cting a -enuinu dcr.ire to please | ano nrr.vnko. “i’ai in town fur the day, and'

nearly everyone I know is away. Won’t you take pity on me and eome to hmeh? Pon't say you have an engagement, Scnor Marques!" “If I had fifty engagements, would I let them stand in the way? You restore life to me, most kind lady.” Half hour later, Mrs. Alspaugh. not indifferent to the envious glances that followed them, led him to their table. Patterning her manner and the use of her eyes on those of a popular actress, whom she hoped she resembled. Marian kept him stimulated and charmed through the meal, over the remains of which they lingered smoking. “I’m often in town.” she said. "There’s so little to do in the country. Mr. Alspaugh’s alwajs busy. But you. Senor Marques, what do you do with yourself all day? Wouldn't you like me to show you some of the sights?” Marian, in common with most

New Yorkers, was woefully ignorant of the wonders of her own city. She was always planning to climb the Statue of Liberty or visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art. But she never did. Now accompanied by the handsome Spaniard, she made these trips of exploration and found them highly unsatisfactory as they afforded little chance for intimacies. Their circuit of New York in the sight -seeing yacht was more successful. By this time they were consciously, though unadniittedly, in love. They had reached the stage of meaningless talk since neither was interested in mere words, but was tensely alive to the revelations of eyes and gestures, to the exciting communications of their throbbing senses. The yacht was the scene of d'Alhues’s first open declaration. Not many people were on the boat, and they were sitting alone on the unpopular side. This gave him an opportunity to abandon pretence and to put in words the emotion in which each was absorbed. “You are so beautiful, carisima mia,” he said simply, gazing into her eyes. Marian smiled, veiling her eyes. “And better than beautiful—desirable, troubling, unforgettable— You arc not like other Americans I have met. You are adorably a woman. Ah, you, like the women of my own country, could live for love. Y’et you are American, too, and that, adds piquancy. Answer me one question, loveiy iady—your husband—” “Oh, lot’s not talk of him,” she aiti suggesting by tone and look that Homer was an almost unbeaz-

“only you men of the old world know how to make love!” “Because our old world has wisdom—we know where the true significance of life is to be found. Money—bah! Something to hare and forget. Love and death, death and love, only these two have meaning and power. Tell me, mi corazon, that you love me!” * * * Marian reached Long Island that afternoon only a few minutes before Homer arrived. Her face was still scorching with d’Alhues’s passionate kisses. While driving out, she had lived with him. in spirit, in a ridiculous old castle in Spain. By contrast with this imagined Elysium, the conditions of her actual life seemed so stale, so sordid, that she -could have wept in self pity at the fate that obliged her to stop at the railway station, among the other wives of commuting husbands, to pick up Homer, to submit to his unwanted kiss— sacrilege, on top of those she so hotly remembered—and to sit opposite him through dinner, listening to his dull garrulity. After dinner he sat down before the radio to listen to a talk on business conditions. The loud authoritative complacent voice was intolerable to Marian, in whose ears were the wooing cadences of the enamored Spaniard. “My head aches!” she snapped. “I’m going to bed, and for God’s sake, turn that thing down and keep it down.” For more than an hour Marian lay repeating the words of her lover and dreaming of the ecstasy that lay so immediately in the future.
