Martin t.annot go to Germanyto.study me8i- cine because of lack of funds. Then a friend .of Mary's employer, Chris: topher Steynes, proposes that she play the part of his wife in melee to -dis-. eonragea Russian countess who is on his trail. Mary decides to accept ,the propositio•-r '•ith a view to helping her 'btctber Mayon: CHAPTER XII.—(Cont'd.) "The -thing .s chat we ought to carry this, with a rush!" young Steynes telcl her when they went into Gamin's beautiful shop, to buy clothes ,for the masquerade. "You'll have to call ane `Chris. Everyone calls the Chris," "Chris," she repoatd obediently, trying t!ee sound of it. She loolced about interestedly lot ex quisite;evening bags, fans and scarfs. Her escort asked, with -an experienced .for a special saleswoman, and. they went into a private show room. "No use advertising- all this!" he• reminded her. But Mary' Kate' was to.: much amused and interested to care. "If . it's an eight: er size it will tit me," she said to the ,middle-aged, handsome woman who began to show her evening frocks. .. "But you'll want to try !t on, Ma - dem?" No, Madam didn't want to try any, thing on. She was, however, 'per- suaded to slip off lier brown coat and put on the evening wrap. It was a garment'of white and gohl brocade, patterned in little . quilted squares; its great roller was of creamy fur, Mary Kate's shiny go! - den hair rose from it like a flame. "This is ridiculous!" she said to Christopher St',fnee. "Stop Looking at the tags, then." The evening gown was of ivory satin, patterned about its' low neck, that left the wearer's shoulders bare, with shining rows of pearls, embroid- ered into roses. "The pearl motif is repeated on the left side here," said the saleswoman. ".Madam can see how it is interlined." "It's beautiful," ;Bary Kate said re- spectfully. She was a little bewilder- ed. She had never been in such a place. The tights and mirrors, the scent of subtle perfumes, the shine of lustrous fabrics confused her senses. The saleswomen impressed her, as they went smoothly to and fro. But she showed no awkwardness, Now and then she crinkled up her blue eyes' and laughed into Christopher Steynes own, as at come secret joke. For the rest she was dignified, inter- ested, protesting only by an. occasional glauee. "If its wotth it to you—" she would saysvith a shrug, when the wrap an11 evening gown were followed by pearl buckled slippers transparent fine sills stockings as thin( as fog, a white silk morning gown, sn.art and brief, like e tennis frock, with a knowing little striped silk jacket to accompany it. "It's worth it to me," Chris always answered, with a businesslike nod. He was very businesslike today. This was Thursday aftrnoon, and he aintitted franks; that he had evaded n luncheon with th.. Russian countess and her daughter. They had reached town at nine o'clock, and had been in Much with hien at ' wenty minutes past nine," he said. "I sent them flowers, d'you see? And Rountree asked them to dinner tomorrow night and I'm going to spring you on thent theft." He glanced at seer sharply. "You're not nervous about it, am you?" "Not exactly, no. But to tell you the truth," diary Hate said with an uneasy laugh, "I'll be glad when it is ever." "Maybe you .hin4 I won't!" he said fervently. They both -laughed, more naturally, you know anything about bridge?" Chris askety as they left the shop, end found themselves in the lata afternoon tide on Post Street. "Ob, yes. I play." "Not contract?" he asked incredu- lously. "Oh, yes!" "You're perfect," he assured her. '"Now, let me see where we could go to have a cup of tea-" he said, pon- dal ing, "The Palace? It's quiet there. De you like the Palace?" "I've never been there for tea." "Welt, conte on then,- Because it seems 'to me We ought to rehearses little. You sec we can't slip up on this, Mary," he said "Been.sse the minute they suspect any hokum, it gives'eni a sort of claim, do you see?" 'TY Made of pure mater- ials in modere, sunlit factories.

Only—only What I'm doing rather scares me," the eirl cormfesocd, Steynes matte ee immediate answer, He was leading the way into the Pal- ace Hotel, clown the long paosage lined with smart little, flower and candy and cigarette and magazine shoes, land to time wide airyy eour: where tea tables Were scattered. An 'orchestra was playing, "We went a corner table; we want to talk," he said, with an authorita- tive air, to the head waiter, Immedi- ately they were established in an in= conspicuous corner, Lehind a coliimn and some potted palms, where they could hear,the-strains..ef the orchestra and watch the drifting crowds then;- selves 'almost unseen., "You, say that what you are doing rather scares you," Christopher. Stene Said, as calmly as if there had been no interruption, when they had ordered their tea. "Now why do you say that?: What is there about' it to scare you?" "Being found gut, I suppuse," Mary Kateanswered simply. ."Well—but in what?" teeth, masquerading as a man's wife. Staying at his .o se," "But, my dear it'sr all only a joke; people do all sorts of things as jokes! L..ok, it even -haprr.ns to be the first of April,'Friday, It's merely an April Fool joke, Tell them thatl" '"I'll tell then; nothing," Maty Irate 'said firmly. "My one chance is to get through this without having to tell anybody anything." There was a grim emphasis on the last twee words; ehe looked him un- -smilingly in the • eye. "But, how'd reg explain the money and the frocks?" "I can alttys tell my nether and the man I'm engaged to marry that I got then, second -handed somewhere," the girl explained, after thought. "The rney I want for Mart—my brother, and of course I'll tell him the truth!" "Well, exactly] And see how little there is to this, Mary," said Chris. topher, leaning across the table. "To- day's Thursday, isn't it? Well, no- thing can happen today. I mean you go hone, everything's as usual, no- body suspects anything --there's no- thing to suspect. Tomorrow, with your suitcase packed with your own things, you take the five o'clock train to Burlingame. Your, family thinks you're going to Sacramento," He hesi- tated, frown. "Any of 'ear planning to see you off?" he asked. CHAPTER XIIL "I thought of that. So I +old them my train went at eight. Then. I'm going to rush out late in the after- noon, grab niy suitcase, and explain to Mother that it leaves earlier. That'll prevent anyone coming to the station." "Good girl! Then I meet you at Burlingame," pursued the man in sat- isfaction, "and we go to El Hoger. It's the Bersinger plume. Do you know it?" Is it the place with time picture gallery?" "That's t}te place. et's small, the ester is vole* Spanish, with just a touch of the period of the late Presi- dent Grant," the man said, lighting n cigarette.. "Then," he pursued, "we proceed to Gordon Rountree's house for -dinner. We are dir, andeMrs, Jay Christopher Steynes, for the moment. We rub it, into Madame Yarnowsko. We invite her and Malta to luncheon the following day, preceding the polo. The polo begins at three—" "Oh, but listen. I couldn't possibly before all that crowd—" "Just a moment, Mary. You and T don't go to the polo, because I get a nespage that some dear Dict friends are in San Franciseo and must see us, So eve land the Yarnowskas at the polo field, put them in the care of Friends —Gordon'lI take 'em, he's coming to lunch, and he'll manage it somehow. And then I run you to—well, say a four o'clock train, you beat it hone, tell your mother that you got away before you expected to, and—mah- jong!" "In other wot'ds," he summarized it, as she regarded him dubiously, her elbows on the table, her chin on her linked fingers, "in other words you run a risk for much less than twenty- four hours." "No, twenty-four full hours," she protested, as if the detail Was impor- ts nt, eI leave on a five o'clock train tomorrow." "Yes, but you're not—shall I say vulnerable, until you reach Burlin- game nearly an hour later, Aed once you're on the train, returning, on,Sat- urday, you're safe again, aren't you? No," Chris argued it, ploy -nutty, "your danger line—if I may so ex- press it, will be only from say—five- thirty on Friday to, say—thtee-thitty on Saturday. And part, of that time, say from noidrtight on Friday until test o'clock on Saturday, you will be asleep. So that -eel She was not listening. "0h, I'm going to do it," she said, gloomily. "And I'll have a good time, t o!" Mary Kate added, fiercely. Chris laughed. "That's, the spirit! And `now," he said, "aaout our being sort of intimate and easy with each "other. Gordon knows all about it, of tours ., and he'll make it easy. And the rest will take everything for granted, beeause'we're supposed to be newly-weds—" "The rest?" she echoed suspieiously: • "Well, he's having a few persons in to dinner., I seer" And she was thoughtful again. "You know I'm doing this with my eyes wide open," Mary 'Hate said, il- lustrating the simile by opening a pair of unusually blue eyes very wide- ly. "I'm not being fooled. I'in not being misled." "I'll s 'ter," he agreed simply.

I must be spent, hero ...'there is uo word So weightless and so golden but would break Tillie haunted dream in Welch no sound is heard, This golden sleeping that must never wake Till the last leaf has faltered to the ground With something less .., . and mole! , than any sound. —David Morton.

Modern Footwear Glitters With Gems The Longer the Skirt, the More Elaborate the Evening Shoe "Rings ou her fingers and bells on her toes" is the evensong of the mod- ern maid. From head to foot, and especially to foot, site glitters and sparkles in the electrie light of the evening like newly fallen snow in brilliant winter sunlight. The less one sees of feet, it seems, the more i decorative do they become. The newest evening slippers, made of rhinestones and imitation rubies. emeralds or sapphires, would have looked garish on a damsel with her shirts just below her knees. But when skirts go to lengths undreamed of, such footwear, twinkling tantallz- ingly among the. folds et satin or vel- vet, seems the twentieth-centurry. equivalent of Cinderella's glass slip. per. Jewelers Turn Shoemakers night of heel and low of vamp are they, and very ethereal looking, more like a dew -spangled cobweb than any- thing so mundane as a shoe. For there is nothing to these slippers ex- cept the soles and a laceu'ork of bril- liants. ;Vending them would be work for the Jeweler rather than the shoemakel'. For the lady 'who likes to surround herself with an aura of Oriental splen- dor and mystery, such slippers as those worn by Fatima and designed to enslave the heart and imagination of her fierce Blueheard will appeal. Made of brocuulo in Oriental colors, and the toes turned up in the least suspicion of a point give then, a glamour at! of their own. The Modern Grecian Sandal If your new evening gown Is one of those that designers purloined from the days of ancient Greece, you should buy a pair of the new Grecian sandals to wear with it. Our impression is that the original Grecian sandal wa low of heel. If we are correct, then, these new slippers have departed from the exact style of their progenitors, for their heels are very high and very slim and very graceful, The vamp and heel are made of t!te narrowest straps of gold or silver In fact, these slippers are little more than a heel and sole held ,4a by kid straps. Here is another piece of footwear designed for the days of 1981, when feet and ankles have become as orna- mental as of old, The Man She Thought Crooked By DOUGLAS MALLOCH' Yont know the man she ,night have wed, Aright nice fellow, too; And yet to hint she shook her heat; And -then said "yes" to yon.
