CHAPTER XIV Again that sense of unreality ewept over Tool, and enacted with I it waa a queer sense of foreboding. For »omeg reason known only to those two—perhaps to Niklas only —they were gambling with an unknown Cinderella. poeaiNy trading on her ignorance, her complete lack of friends. Who woo this Nikina?—ehe wondered. What was there about the •nan that compelled one to obey him? Wasn’t there something siar it. the very phrase, “whispering campaign"? if she were in her right senses, shs would destroy that contract, refuse to lend herself to anything phony. She was Antoinette Godlard of San Francisco. A name to be proud of. Why change it? Why pose as something she wasn’t, all for filthy lucre, for attracting silly, credulous sheep into what might prove to be anything but a respectable fold? It was too fantastic, thio scheme of transforming herself into the descendant of a queen! The public would laugh heartily or, following Lou Steiner’s bizarre publicity, she might even be hooted at the open ing! Yet not alone for the needed salary did Toni know that she’d go through with it, risk everything for a new identity, a new start. The added factor was the break with the old life and with the Toni Goddard who had suffered such humiliation frost ths man she'd been engaged to. Plus, an inner, disturbing votes informed her, the possibility of meeting Guy Hal stead-Flagg. The day of the preview, “by invitation only," arrived. It was to take the form of a cocktail party. The guests had been carefully selected by Lou Steiner. The rich. The spenders. The social leaders. There were acres of hors d'oeuvres. The variety in canapes waa endless. Russian caviar. Truffles. Pate-de foia-gras. And champagne flowing like water. This from five to eeven o'clock. Niklas had been moot generous. Two hundred guests had been bidden. In some instances, a guest was even privileged to bring a party. Miss Harriet Brewster waa one so favored. “You understand, Miss Antoinette, that this afternoon we are expecting what will be called a big success? This will rest largely on your shoulders. I am sum you will not fail us." She trembled. He came to her dressing room at a quarter after five. From downstairs the hum of conversation was surging to a toar, as of a river murmuring to gigantic falls. “The N lagsrs of champagne," she thought whimsically. “Ah, you are beau-teo-ful, my dear Miss Antoinette, or 1 should say, marquise!* Niklas rubbed his hands delightedly as ho regarded the ethereal vision in the exquisite eignteenih-ceaiury cuMUuae. ' Nvi nervous?” “A little." “Come. You shall have s fortifier." He pressed a button, then commanded a knee-breeched, bewigged waiter to bring champagne He even took a sip himself, nodding kindly over the run of the glass. “To the success of a beautiful, ambitious, clever young lady who will be the toast of the town!"

She drank. A roasssuring warmth stole through her. Ho pulled out his watch. “lu tea minuteo, for the crowd are already will appear oaths balcony. And do not forget Peplto!" Well trained, of brilliant plumage, Peplto was a parakeet of haughty mien. •At first ho bad scorned poor ToaL “For the fake I am!" she thought ruefully. Perched on b#r hr hxi peeked het painfully at rehearsals. New, with complete about-face, ho waa friendly. Even affectionate. "Miss Brewxter has come with a party such as I had hoped oho would.* Toni's heart roes. Would ho bo in that party?—oho wondered. And if be was. would she meet him? Or was she to stay baek ia her dressing room between performances? Perhaps, since thio was a preview, Mr. Niklas might let her mingle for a while with the guests. Ho had the faculty of seenuag to know her thoughts. He said: "After your song, and the encore, 1 shall seat you at a little table, end bring to you such gentlemen as are important. And if they ask you, you will dance with them, please." She took a long look at herself in the mirror. Was this vision of beauty actually Toni Goddard? No, no, the marquise in her chateau! Or, better still. Marie Antoinette reincarnated! A queen who would welcome not her subjects, but congenial spirits of her court. It would be a revel ae in Petit Trianon days I There was nothing to bo afraid of. They adored her. Ae oho stared into the glass, the urgency of her wish brought about the queerest experience. Mystic! Thrilling! She had tbe power of seeing keek ’ She was one with the ill-fated queen! She wasn't in this century. The hands of time had been turned back. Through the power of her imagination, she was Marie Antoinette. fearless, coquettish, a grande dame, conquering. Monsieur Alphonse, who had been suffering all her nervous tremors with her. saw her chin tilt high “The child has breeding, courage, the grand manner,” be told himaeif on a long breath of relief ae bo watched her. Amazing transformation! Quietly h* slipped on his glasses. He had the strangest feehr* ns though he were spying oa something that was not quite of this mortal world. This dark-eyed beauty. her lips parted, that radiance on her faee, seemed to have contacted some eternal truth, as though a veil had suddenly been lifted. As indeed it had. Or so, looking, beck on it afterword. it seemed to Toni. A queer, psyehie phenomenon. The soul of Mane Antoinette seemed to have taken possession of her, animating her gestures, infusing her frightened Mart with queenly courage. In the mirror, Toni saw exquisite. shadowy figures all around her. GrwdueUy, beside her. the wom face of her singing master cnaMgsd. Il aanuined a some m<en. With thudding heart she knew it for her lover, the handsome count who had been faithful unto death. Ho smiled, infinite tenderness ia bis eyew It seemed to her like the image of Guy Halstead-Flagg smiling at her, encouraging her. rwmeto the door. Mr. Niklas had started his speech. Was the ready? She did not hear.

She was listening to the music of a spinet and a harp, smiling back at dear, dark eyes that careened her. Alphonse touched her on the shoulder. "Come." With head held high. Peplto on her shoulder, she swept out on the balcony at the last word of Nihlas's speech, and was led to the top of the staircase by him to rounds of applause. In s dream she sang as she had never sung before. Bewitchedl The silvery notes rang high and clear, thrilling with their dramatic quality. Gone waa bar fear. They loved tor They were her subjects. She waa on a throne. Her eyes swept the spellbound audience, seeking one face. It smiled up at her. She was seated at a small ringside table. Nikina. Lou Steiner, and her singing teacher, made a kind of bodyguard over her for the smart guests at the preview clamored to meet the enchantress. Niklas was beaming. Behind h'* goggles. Lou Steiner's eyes snapped with ths light of victory. Monsieur Alphonse waa similarly radiant. She had put it over. It had been a triumph. "Will you honor me by dancing with me. marquise?” Before her stood a soa of one of the richest families of America. She glanced at Niklas. “Ah. thank you. You are ver-ree kind. But lam Jus’ a leetle tired—faNgade. You ondemtsn!?" She smiled dazzling at the bo;-, softening his disappointment. » Without rehearsal, without even dreaming the would do it. her rile had become such a part of her that it seemed perfectly natural to drop into the broken accent. Niklas was delighted. Everything was going far beyond his expectations. His hunches were right No professional could have done better. Lou's flights of fancy were borne out in fact. Why hadn't he been smart enough to invite columnists end critics here? Elicit raves over his new find? But the guests were so enthralled by her. they'd talk; they'd spread the news like wildfire! Couples danced by. hilarious with champagne. The orchestra played divinely. £e CUtrau de to WarqaiMwaa the last word ia elegance and beauty. “I go now to move among my guests ” Niklas rose. -You.
