Over that head her eyes surveyed Sandy almost somberly. But she nodded her assent. For, after all, it was a good par ty—the Six Arts Bail, A good party! Streamers of colored silk and snapping balloons, and hurrying waiters—their black suits stand ing out. like blots of ink, against the vividness of the crow'ded room.

Before the jungle beast was cornered in a factory building and put to death with a rifle it had attacked two horses and sent the crowd of onlookers into panic of terror.

Sandy—^be was a pirate. Noth ing startling about that. JBut cool, with a tattered shirt, and pictur esque with gilt ear hoops and a scarlet silk handkerchief, and the eternal vandyke. “Somebody’ll cut the whiskers off, before the evening’s over, Ellen had warned. “And then what a Samson you’ll turn out to be!” “I’m a Samson, anyway, as ^ar as you’re concerned 1” Sandy had assured her. “Sandy S. Si^on, that’s I’m. Without either strength or will, or of character!” ESlen laughed and danced with Sandy, and was glad that he danc^ well. “Yessir, you’re my baby!” he told her. and Ellen danced with him. He relinquished her ruefully when the financier, following him, demanded an introduction. Ellen danced with the financier and tried not to hate his hot, fat fingers on her bare arm. After all, those same fingers could write a check for a million dollars. The author who built laughter spied her in the crowd, and forgot that he had lost his own girl. The evening went on. Ellen had removed the cap that was a part of her brief page costume. “You’re not a page—you’re less than a paragraph!” Sandy had thrown at her once, from over the heads of the dancers who passed to and fro between them. She had removed the cap be cause her head was warm and tired, and ached a little. As she danced—passing from hand to hand, like some pretty, mindless toy, she felt suddenly older than all the rest of the room put to gether. Suddenly more weary, more tired. Certain remarks that she had made to Gay came back to her. Also certain things that her mother, three years ago, had said. “I’m different from the rest of you!’’ she had told Gay. And her mother had said— “I’d rather have you sit on the window-sill, separted from the world by bars . . . than be jostled by the crowtl ...” Ellen, with hot steaming bodies and sharp elbows and sliding ank- las all about her, was realizing that if one is different, one can be a part of the crowd—and. at the same time, be sitting on the win- dow-silll! The most popular illustrator of the year claimed Elhn for a dance, tried to keep her for more. A radio star, prancing by. croon ed something about “I kiss your nand, mam’selle—’’ only she didn't give him a chance to do it. An actor—^wold weary, with four wives in his background, started toward her, across the floor. Started as one who seeks, ft'ho thirsts, after youth. Ellen, seeing him come, felt a swift nau sea. “I’ll find Sandy,” she said. “He’s got to take me home. I’m tired of oeing pawed, and patted, and treated like something that’s -'heap. What—" But she never fin>h 1 thought, or the sentence. For sud denly he had loomed up, out of the :rowd in front of her. A tall young man, with wide shoulders and the brown of the sun on his face. And looking out of that brown, the bluest eyes that Ellen had ever seen. He smiled down at her— very far down—for a moment, be fore he took her, unresisting, and without even so much as a by- your-leave, from t.ie arms of her partner. Ellen, with something odd and disturbing in her heart, with something hot pounding against temple and wrist, smiled back at him. Eilen’.s partner, scarcely able to stand, but extremely voluble with al. protested. “Say, bow’d you get that way?” foe "1 hM tUB But foe yotmg numi «tiU down Bt foe corlqy X&Bnfo heed, danced enray. foaBaV foa anu MOV tight her ImeW i^Heahould have MBurtMii foal: MBbraee.

Repeating hunseU, as if he coiddn’t think of anything else to say. “Where,” he questioned again, •‘have yon been? All of this time!” EHlen had caught hold of her speeding emotions. She found jt possible, at last, to answer in kind. “Why,” she answered, “I’ve just been sort of waiting around. Knowing that if I' waited long enough, you’d find me. Knowing that—” 'The thrill that shot down all through her spine, to the very soles of her feet! It was because the young man had kissed her. Kissed her ever so gently upon the very top of her head. Ellen pulled back in his arms to survey him. She’d put him in his place! She’d be cool and scornful and— But her eyes didn’t reflect scorn. They dwelt instead upon that brown face. Upon the crumpled Pierrot ruff, under the brown square chin. They rested a mo ment upon the broad shoulders. And then they traveled up, to be lost in the blue, blue gaze that was bent down upon them. To be lost for so long that the young man’s voice, sounding huskily, brought with it the crash that come at the end of a falling-thru- space dream. “Let’s cut away from this place,” said the voice. “See? We—we’ve got to get acquainted, you and I. And we can’t, in this mad house.” Ellen danced in silence half way round the crowded floor. She needr ed that breathing space of silent motion, in which to think. (Continued Next Week.)
