The Xoilowing night Barbara van Buren sat in front of the large three-panelled mirror in her well- uppointed dressing-room in the Pyrrhic Theater. putting a liwv finishing touches to her dressing.

Two people stood watching her- her elderly dreser and Gidcsrr Trevor. The man's regard was frankly admiring.

she veered half round in us: chair and over her shoulder said. brightly to the dresser. "All right, Polly, that's everything, tltaiiks very much. Good night. You'll be around Monday, usual time," and again faced her centre mirror.

"I suppose." said Trevor, with in somewhat forced joucularity. wile now may reasonably say that our star it at last alone."

The slight frown that so readily puckered Barbara van Buren's fore- head reappeared for I moment, then lifted. She smiled: "on, be your age, Gideon."

"But I really mean it." he per- listed.

"All right. Gideon, the star Ill alone," she said indifierently; "and quite defendiess if you Ire going to turn on the machine gun of yiiir undying love. I just hate to be uri- kind, but all the same it's hardly worth while starting in to shunt, because"-she glanced at the watch on her ivrist-"we'll be leaving in a few mlnutes."

"You will-I shan't be coming."

She looked up in astonishment.

"What's gone wrong? What's happened to make you change your mind?"

"I haven't changed my mind, Barbara. I never had any intent- ion of coming."

"I just don't know what you mean. when Robin Foster was here last night you showed every in- tention of coming; now, didn't

"'I'hai.'s right. I had to let him fancy so; naturally. What d'you think? surely you understand that. And by the way. Barbara Mr. Les- smg doesn't. know that Foster and I met last. night, I haven't wld him. I thought it safer not to."

"Why should he? Look here. Gideon. what microbe has got hold of you?”

"Barbara. you're not trying to tell me that you don't know what's behind this little week-end party of yours?" he asked seriously. He

Barbara van Bur:-n ignored tire sneer.

"I hadn't worried about that.'-'. she answered finally, "I knew peter had his reasons, and that was just good enough for me. I did what I was asked to do. and at the same time I pleased myself. I want Fos.' ter along. I like the boy. and 1 con. sider he's a darned clever artist. 1 think he'll make a dandy portrait of me."
