More than one head turned to look at the tall girl In the regally simple wrap of brown fur. There were one or two whispers as Heath was recognized. He had forgotten his original caution and desire to avoid publicity in his eagerness to take Susan about. Although impatient for the marriage to take place, he had agreed to wait for her aunts return. Now. conscious of the craned necks and the whispers, he felt oniv a glow of pride. The girl was so beautiful' She had a look of grace about, her. Susan leaned forward, absorbed in the play, and the man watched her with Interest. It was not until the curtain dropped again and the light* rame on that Susan drew a deep breath and returned to reality. “You like It?” “Oh. so much!” The color came up in her cheeks and her eyes were atarrv. ‘Don’t you?” “Well, it’a all right, only all these British comedies sound alike.” They mav to you, but I've never seen one before and I think it's wonderful.” she confided with a happy little laugh. Susan loosened her wrap and leaned bark, iooking about her for the first time. As by a magnet her gar# was drawn to a little group in the box just to the left. Irresistibly her eves clung to the three people balancing on the little gilt rhairs. Surely she knew lhat girl in black, with her bright hair combed demurely bark from a brow of ramelia whiteness Susan's heart plunged as she realir#d the identit.v of the fair-haired young man whose head was turned away from her. Try as she might, she could not take her eyes away, A* though impelled by Susan's gaze, the man turnd and stared at her. For the fraction of an Instant something quivered between them. Then the girl inclined her head with dignity and looked swiftly away. Her pulses were racing now. This was just as she had dreamed. "Someone you know?" Heath asked curiously, noting the quality of her bow. Susan never knew how she answered him. She was fighting desperately for control. All her hardwon defenses seemed shattered by this encounter. a a a MEANTIME, in the box another little drama wa* being enacted. The bright-haired girl in

] black had followed the direction of Bob Dunbar s glance and had seen 1 him flush. She laughed coolly. Oh—ho. your little friend turns up again!" she said. "Whoa that with her?” Denise leaned forward, frankly staring. At the glimpse of Heath's aristocratic profile ahe 1 whistled softly. “As I live and breathe.” she muti tered. “she s bagged Old Propriety himself!" She saw Bob's spine stiffen and return with seat to the attack. * Look what she * wearing.' she said, enjoying herself thoroughly now. “Sables! Mother said when she w as in Madame Elsa's the other day the talk was that old Heath had a girl around town now.” Fiercely Bob interrupted her. "Don't be a fool.” he said. “You know Susan Carey isn't that kind.” Denise shrugged. "You know more about her than I do, smarty.” She turned her attention to the other member of the party, a youth who looked like a professional tango dancer. The dark youth said something that made Denise laugh immoderately just as the curtain rose again. So far as Susan was concerned, that second act was a muddle. People babbled In high British voicea of unimportant nothing*, and slim, sophisticated girls lounged in. strewing epigrams about. In her heart the old. dull pain throbbed again and yet she was not •-orry she had seen Bob. She had bee n living, she felt, for this hour. Her whole being was keyed up to the possibility of seeing again that beloved fa re. She would suffer for .t but that was unimportant. During the second interval Susan determinedly kept her eyes away trom the box. but just aa the lights went off. quite against her will, her eyes flashed in that direction. The box was empty. They had gone. The world suddenly went gray. What she had expected she scarcely knew. Perhaps she had hoped against hope that as the welldressed throngs milled out Into the foyer her shoulder might brush against Bob s. He would look up and smile. Perhaps he would shake hands. She would give everything she owned at this instant to slip her tingling palm into the grip of his strong fingers. It would be something to remember. something to treasure But now he had gone and she would not see him. nan IITHAT had happened was this. ** Denise and the Spanish youth had seen the play before and Bob, who was raging in his heart at the conversation touching Susan, was quite ready to concur in their proposal to go on some place and dance. He warned overwhelmingly to hurt someone. Since he could not hurt Susan, he turned the battery of his sarcastic fury upon his two companions. Denise ordered the taxi driver to stop. "Look here, if you don't like us. j you know w*hat you can do,” she said crudely. "Bobby's in a beast jf a temper,” she explained to the other man. "I stepped on his pet corn and he doesn’t like it. 1 Rico and I want to go places and

have fun. If you're going to crab the party, you'd better get out.” Bob bowed low to her. "That’s all right with me.” he said elaborately. “That's fine.” The door slammed after him. “If I didn’t know he hadn’t had a drop. I’d say he was drunk,” Denise muttered, peering after Dunbar a* he sauntered down the street. She was not far from right. The young man was drunk with fury and despair. Passers-by turned to stare at the tall, hatless youth in evening clothes One or two timid women scuttled anxiously in the direction of a policeman's booth after he passed. His eyes were wild and he was talking to himself. Without consciously directing his course, he turned his steps toward the theater he had just left. The night was sharply cold, but he was not aware of it. As he swung along he discovered that he was carrying an object in the curve of his arm. He examined it and found it was his opera hat He laughed suddenly and sailed the thing into the middle of the street, where it lay on the car tracks. As he neared the building, his steps quickened. The pavement was deserted. Perhaps the play was over and Susan had gone. Ah, that was it! He knew now why he had come back. It was for a glimpse of her, of the girl he had enshrined. “Enshrined! That's good!" he barked aloud, frightening an old cleaning woman who was trotting along homeward. He had thought Susan everything

MEN who are completely selfish are. fortunately, rare in this j world. But when one does appear. 1 lit soon becomes evident, r.nt only ! that he is going to bring unhappiness to every life that he touches, j but that, he is going to achieve a good deal of unhappiness for himself. too. % This solemn reverie follows a reading of Louis Bromfield's new novel, “A Modern Hero." Pierre Radier. the central figure of this book, is a wholly selfish ' man. The son of an irregular union. ’ between a lady circus performer 1 i and a European financier, he grows I up in a traveling circus and nour- j ! ishes a burning desire to get out of I this environment and achieve great j gobs of worldly success. He vows. also, that, he always will be free. No emotional entanglements ever are going to hamper his i movements. So he sets out to realize his am- j bitions. First he discards his' ' mother. Then he discards the girl j : Joanna, his small-town sweetheart. Then Leah, the woman who ad- ; vances the money with which he makes his start in life, is ruthlessly 1 shelved. Then Muller, the mechanic who enables him to become a rich manufacturer, is used and tossed i aside, He marries Hazel, the rich financier's daughter, uses her as another stepping stone, and tramples her under foot. But at the last he fails; for Homer Flint, his father-in-law. is a little too clever for him, and when Pierre tries to use him as he has used the others, he gets crushed. Mr. Bromfleld has wTitten an in- | teresting novel, peopled with living characters and touched here Rnd ; there with colorful melodrama. The book is published by Stokes, and retails for $2.50.

The superstitious people needed no urging: but sprang forward with alacrity to imprison the masked priests.

that was good and pure. In an age when young men scorned ideals, he had built one about this girl. Manlike, he felt now that he hated her for having destroyed his dream. Nevertheless he had to see her. That glimpse of her pearlpale face through crowded aisles had been tantalizing. He did not mfan to speak to her. He only wanted to stand close enough to see the downward flicker of those long lashes, and perhaps to hear the sound of her voice. It was odd how well he remembered everything about this girl.

As the newcomers pushed their way toward them, the eyes of the woman went wide in mngled astonishment, incredulity and hope And the stranger rushed forward and took her in his arms.
