"KING OSjfHEARTS" BY EDNA QOBB/tif£!~ WEBSTE x s> 'wa ______ „ t*
CHAPTER XVI Th« great red curtains on the stage parted and swung gracefully aside. Simultaneously, a gasp of expectant admiration arose from the vast and colorful audience of masked guests. On his golden throne, resplendent in royal jewels and robes, sat Rex, the king. For the first time his name was announced to the public. He bowed and his subjects cheered lustily. Music blared and all manner of visible and audible salutations filled the air. One by one. the knights of his court were introduced and took their places in the tableau. Then —the queen was called. Slowly and majestically. Doti took her place on the throne beside Jack, a royal vision in white satin, deep ermine and glittering gems. A prolonged sigh of admiration swelled to cheers, as attendants set the crown upon her, head and placed in her hand the jeweled scepter of power. Her four maids-in-waiting were called and took their places, and the tableau was complete. An orchestra began to play with swinging rhythm. Rex bowed to his queen and started the dance; his knights and her ladies paired off and joined them. After the second intermission, those in the audience turned to their partners and swung off in gay abandon. The ball of Rex had begun. Dewey was beside Lynn to claim the first dance —and many thereafter. Hilarity mounted as spirits rose rapidly to the climax and the end. of Mardi Gras. “Don’t the king and queen dance? Lynn inquired, noting that they remained on their thrones after the first dance, watching the revelry before them. • “Very little, after the first dance. Sometimes, they mingle with the atidirtice later in the evening.’ Lynn hoped secretly that they would, tonight. If only she might have one more dance with Jack. Perhaps after tonight there would he no further opportunity. After tonight She closed her mind to the doleful thoughts which crowded the l ? way in like waiting bandits every time there was the smallest opening. She would be gay. tonight. Happiness enough to endure for a very long time. There were dreary years bevond—in the future; stark and lonely, with no tall smiling-eyed companion. If possible, the splendor and variety of the costumes excelled those of the Proteus ball. If possible the clouds of confetti and serpentine were more dense. If possible, the clouds of confetti and serpentine were more dense. If possible, the assembly was gayer. The hours were enchanted. One after another, the masqueraders claimed Lynn for a partner. At eleven o’clock, the court of Comus arrived to join Rex in a grand finale. It was then that Rex and his court mingled with the dancers. He found Lynn, finally. Her heart beat with suffocating acceleration as he approached her. “I was afraid I might not find you,” he said, drawing her close and lowering his face to hers as he had done the previous night when they danced together. "You wouldn’t have lacked a partner. There are enough girls here waiting to dance with you. I can see their eyes following us, behind their masks.” “There is no other like you,” he whispered. » “Are all the gentlemen of the south so gallant as those 1 have net? Are there no boorish men here?” she endeavored to discount

his compliment, fearful to believe its import. • "I was not being gallant,” he declared, and turned his head to look deeply into her eyes. “I was speaking the truth.” She caught her breath sharply, and lowered her gaze. The long fringes of her eyelashes trembled, and Jack felt an overpowering impulse to stoop and kiss them until they lay against her cheeks. But his strong teeth only sank into his lower lip sharply, as he pressed bis face to hers again. They glided ->n as if strong emotions did not harass them, and whirled to a stop as the music ended. Dewey was beside them instantly, as if he had been following them and drew Lynn away as Jack's attention was diverted by the scores of girls who were pressing toward him hopefully. “Why does he insist upon dancing so much with you?” Dewey demanded. “Doti should be jealous of you. But no one can take what belongs to Doti Merchon, I warn you.” Lynn laughed with feigned amusement. "He only dances with me because I am Doti’s guest, to be polite. And I know that Doti insists on his doing it, just to be generous with me. Everyone has been so wonderful.' “Even I?” he drawled intimately. “Especially you,” she declared with enthusiasm. “I don't know how I ever will thank you.” “There is only one way,” he reminded her, his face very near to hers. That hour was the shortest of the week. But no one could delay the solemn tolling of the bells of St. Louis Cathedral at midnight. Like a pall descending over a brilliant display, the hush deepened until the silence was absolute. Mardi Gras was passed. < Even those who would have prolonged the festive spirit were so conscious of that omnipotent power of disapproval that they subsided into retreat. The entire city closed its doors and went quietly to sleep to await the passing of another year. “They certainly do take their customs seriously, don’t they?” Lynn marveled at the revelers scattering away soberly at the stroke of midnight, as if they were all Cinderella.* obeying the dictates of fairy godmothers. “Oh, sure. Don’t you?” Dewey grinned. “I'm afraid we have no customs —nothing like this. We—just live.” “Is that all?” sardonically. “And work, of course.” “You—work.” he scoffed, and laughed as if that were a very good joke. “Weil—it’s not that funny,” she said a little resentfully, “but I work a great deal harder than I’ve seen anyone working here—even the servants.” “What doing?” incredulously. “Modeling clothes. That doesn't sound very much like work I know, but you'd be surprised the difficulties it involves. Long hours, too. It’s not so easy to dash out every morning and get to work on time.” "Then, why do it?” as if the necessity of working were a new idea to him, as it probably was. “Merely so that I may eat and have a room in which to sleep and a few clothes to wear.” “You don't mean,” he turned to her in complete amazement, “that you take care of yourself?” “Just that. What else?” “But I can’t imagine a girl like you being serious about a thing like that. It's—incredible.” “I don’t know why,” Lynn de-

It’s really — quite serious,” she added, recalling the imperative demands of living. “Well,” Dewey decided comfortably, and with a faint tone of mockery which escaped her guilelessness, “you can just forget about that, now. That’s all over, because you’re going to let me take care of you, little girl.” • “You promised—not to talk about that again ” she reminded him. “About what?” ’About my marrying you,” hesitantly. “When did I ever suggest anything like that?” he asked, surprised. Lynn was astounded. She looked at hint apprehensively, and wondered. Had he tossed down too many cocktails before he saw her yesterday? Perhaps that explained his hasty proposal. She was sorry she had referred to the issue, and did not reply. “When?” he insisted, slowing the car and turning to look at her inquiringly. She forced a little laugh. “Oh, don't you remember what you said to me yesterday about staying here —with you?” “Absolutely. That's what I said.” “Well, I agreed to see you tonight if you wouldn't ask me again to marry you. And you begin right away, by saying you are going to take care of me.” He had stopped the car now, and drew her toward him with a gesture of confidence. “You know, I eould almost believe you,” he said. Lynn was bewildered and a little frightened, somehow. His tone was almost sardonic. “Believe what?” she demanded with a slight resentment. » “That story about taking care of yourself. Os course, if you want your cousin to believe that ” "But, I do!” she protested. “And how!” he laughed. “All eight, but it’s my turn, now. Maybe you’re better than I expected. Maybe—” he stopped abruptly and gazed intently at her upturned face. “You’re darned sweet, anyway,” his eyes gloated. Lynn moved quickly and turned away from his embrace. “I can’t see you again, if you won't keep your promise,” she said coldly. “And I can give you your answer now, if you insist. I won’t marry you, even after I’ve known you for a week. It’s only fair to tell yqu not to expect me to change my mind.” She had anticipated and feared his protestations, but his abrupt laughter astonished her. “I never asked you to marry me, sweetheart, if that’s what is worrying you.” Lynn felt the slow tide of anger ri'e within her as her numbed senses grasped the import of his words. Her face flushed with hot resentment, and it was with a supreme effort that she refrained from raising her hand to strike him. Reason told her that violence would accomplish nothing. She must get back to her aunt's house without letting this man know how she loathed him. She managed to laugh lightly. “Then you weren’t proposing marriage at all?” He shrugged. “We understand each other now, anyway,” concluded Lynn. “I'd like to go home, please. I'm really quite tired. There are four days of the week, yet.” “Four days is plenty—to wait for you. But I can take it I’ll play your little game with you.” (To Be Continued) Copyright. I*3B. King FMture* By*dle«t*, INL

CHAPTER XVII The carnival was over, but that was not the end of Lynn's holiday. Every hour of its remaining days was filled with some delightful pleasure, even though they were a trifle more subdued than the days of celebration. On one afternoon, a dozen of Doti’s friends boarded a yacht and sailed the azure expanse of Lake Ponchartrain. Lynn thought of Lake Michigan’s sullen and angry moods with the icy wind blowing a hurricane into shore, laden with stinging snow. The sparkling calm of this incredibly blue water with the soft winds stirring little ripples made her wish that she might remain in that gentle atmosphere of beauty and languor, forever. But now. she had to return to the north. Even though she might find zomething to do to earn her living in the southern city, there was no possibility now. Reclining in a deck chair under the bright awning, she watched Doti talking animatedly to Jack as they stood beside the rail. Their two forms were silhouetted sharply against the blue of water and sky which marked no honson. His profile was so handsome it hurt Lynn to look at him. He was laughing down at Doti and the light breeze stirred the crisp ends of his hair. As her fingers ached to caress it, she thought, and turned resolutely away. It would be sweet to live in the same place where he was, and see him often. But it would ba unbearable. Better to return to the familiar sobriety, where the problems of existence and the austere commands of Mr. Lowry would help her to forget this glimpse of heaven. No, she never would forget it, of course. But it might be remembered only as a lovely dream. • Then, there was Dewey. Os course, she would not run away from New Orleans just to escape his odious attentions. If she wished to remain there, she would very quickly put him in his place. But he was popular with Doti’s crowd and she did not care to start a controversy by opposing him or criticizing him to his friends. She understood now why Jack objected to her going alone with Dewey on that first evening, and blessed him for his protective interest. Perhaps he was the only one who suspected why she avoided being alone with Dewey thereafter. She hoped that he did know how much she despised the handsome cad for whose favor the girls clamored so ostensibly. But Dewey was so altogether charming and affable that she treated him with the same friendliness she proffered to Jack, at the same time she avoided further tete-a-tetes with him. Which was easy because her visit was so limited that everyone insisted upon entertaining her or taking her somewhere every minute. The consequence was that everyone was with her almost continually, and provided her with every reason to decline Dewey’s suggestions of delightful excursions for the two of them. Lynn wondered why Doti did not sense the truth about her handsome blonde friend’s indifference toward the girls of her set. Here was Doti, accustomed all her life to constant and varied masculine association, while she, Lynn, was a novice in love affairs. Yet she felt much wiser and protected. She had noticed that these southern girls, surrounded by the wall of gallant chivalry builded by the men of their families and their

cliques, had created a false illusion about the glamour of love and romance. It was not surprising, after all. The very atmosphere fostered it; and the men who really were the gallants, promoted it. But, like the necessities of their existence—food, clothing, shelter, service; they had no conception of the realities. Perhaps there were some among them who shared her knowledge of Dewey’s principles, and were silent for the same reason she was. Lynn toured the French quarter and visited all the famous landmarks of pirate dens and haunted houses. She looked upon the heavy rusting chains and the torture devices in the vaulted attic of Mme. Lalaurie’s house with a shiver of horror. “The Creoles declare that the ghosts of murdered slaves haunt the place,” Jack explained, “and that in the dark of night may be heard the sound of clanking chains and shrieks of agony that once were real.” “But why should anyone want to do such things?” Lynn gasped. “Some insane desire to watch human suffering, I suppose. She was a refined aztd cultured woman, but screwy somewhere, no doubt” The entire week was such a contrast of horror and beauty, old and new, ancient and modern, legend and reality. No wonder Lynn was fascinated. She crunched the inevitable pralines of Ixtuisiana molasses and pecans, breathed the scent of orange blossoms and jasmine until she could no longer remember the acrid odor of smoke and foggy air. She drove through parks whose tropical foliage and flowers were visions of Paradise. Always, she was with Doti and Jack, or Dewey and others of their crowd. One evening, they dined at Antione’s, where Dewey’s epicurean fancy commanded an astonishing menu. He inquired for the head chef, who came bowing and massaging his fat palms together, his smile stretched the width of his flowing moustaches. “Make the lady one of your special potato basket*, Pierre, and one of those fried chickens that look like butterflies. Anything else you can think of. We’ll all have the same—with plenty of champagne.” The chief’s smile deepened—it could not broaden—and his gestures grew more voluable as his suave French phrases tumbled over halting syllables of English. While they danced and awaited the more elaborate courses, oysters were served that had been baked in the shell on a bed of rock salt in piping hot granite pans. Thereafter, waiters bowed and flourished their hands in a continuous parade, like the mechanical conveyors of an assembly plant. The potato baskets were works of art: the potato strings woven into graceful and symmetrical shapes and fried in deep fat, then filled with puffed potato wedges. There were the whole chickens, spread flat like golden butterflies on the plates, flaky white sections of grilled pampano, Roguefort and Edam cheese and French pastries on which Pierre had outdone his own skill with his flourishing pastry tubes. Lynn had discovered by this time that Dewey’s sole problem in life was the gratification of his own desires: food, drink, pleasure, comfort. His interest in his father’s business was merely a gesture, not i a genuine concern for its progresi sive development as Jack w-as in- ' terested in the welfare of Merchon ■ 4 Thorpe.

duras offered their advantages for change and adventure and certain personal whims which could not be indulged too freely at home. •• • • “It's just 83 well we’re leaving for the day,” Doti observed one morning as they lingered over their breakfast trays together. “It’s a great day for the colored people, so there won’t be much service around here.” “Another celebration?" Lynn inquired with amusement. “Seems to me all any of you do down here, is celebrate.” “This happens to be a funeral, but that is what the negroes really enjoy more than anything.” “A funeral?” Lynn’s eyes were wide with astonishment. “Sure, it’s about the only occasion when they all get together and shout and moan to their hearts’ content. A negro funeral is no simple occasion.” “Come down to the kitchen with me. I want you to see Mattie, and she yearns to see you. She has insisted upon makin’ all her special dishes for your pleasure, because she knew and loved your mother, although she hasn't been doin’ much of the cookin’ for years. She is very old.” “I’d be delighted,” Lynn agreed. “I’ve wanted to see her and thank her.” She was surprised to find that the kitchen was not in the house at all. but a separate building connected with the main house by a covered passage, like an old covered bridge. “That’s the way all the old plantation mansions were built in the South, with a collection of cabins in the rear for kitchen and slave quarters. This is one of the largest and best preserved in the state. It was designed and built by our great grandfather, who later became a major in the War Between the States.” “You mean the Civil War?” ° “We never call it that down here," Doti replied laconically, and her bright red lips drew together grimly. Lynn had noted that one little attitude of resentment which was so contradictory to their usual amiability, several times before, and said no more. They entered a low cottage that wa ® shaded heavily with honeysuckle vines. A gaunt and gnarled old woman, very black, arose from an antiquated rocking chair at the same time a man arose from a table where his baek had been turned to the door. His close-eurled hair was sprinkled with white, like soft snowflakes on black wool, and he wore a rusty black swallow-tail coat, “Mohnin’, Miss Doti," he bowed solemnly, and old Mattie’s delight was evinced by a grin that once would have revealed a row of white teeth. Now there were ugly omissions. But her eyes bulged in a peculiar frightened expression. “Ah declaih, if’n taint Miss Mah’ain herse’l come t’ life,” her old withered hands clasped in adoration before Lynn. The black eyes glistened with an emotional mist.' “Chile, yoh shoh is lak yoh mothah, de Lawd rest huh soul.” Lynn was mevsd and bewildered to speechless reverence and fear. But Doti filled ths void. “Lynn wanted to see you and thank you for the delicious things you’ve been cookin’ for her.” “Ah reckon hit’s been a pleasuk foh me, honey chile.” (To Be Continued) Opyrliht, I*3l, King F»af r lyndtcatß, Tnat
