NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XVI
A ' tall, stately old woman, with
pround, still face,. whom overy girl
that worked for T. Q. Curtis knew
as Mrs. Lucia Meadows, poor but
aristocratic' widow of a former gov
ernor of the state, received the
girls as they arrived at the drawing
room door. T. Q a strange T.
tneipeneci nosi in wcu-tuii- htr. , ,,r ... Bt..red thera
ored evening clothes. Introduced , ns ,, 'she nad n(jvm. seen theln be.
she extended her hand
And this is little Miss Billy
Wells, tlie ' musical genius of tho
Curtis, family." T. Q. laid ' down
a hand fleetlugly on Billy's head.
"I'm so glad to know you, Mies
Wells. I've : heard ninny; delight
ful' things; of .the , Jlttlo .violinist
with the tbig . future. And ' there,
1r "someone elee who 'has1 been
wanting very much for you to ar
rive. My nephew ah, ) here tie
comes.... Miss Wells, allow-me to
present Mr. Dalhart Romalne,' my"
nephew, who i& visiting nie from
New Yor,k " ' "
If she said more, Billy did not
hear, for her hand wus tingling In
the clasp -of thin, brown, satin
smooth fingers, and for the second
time she' felt her blue eyes being
drowned in a pair of brooding,
sooty-black ones that made her for
get everything else in the world.
His voice played upon her quiv
ering' nerves. No, she hnd not for
gotten a single tone of it rich,
carrcsslng, low, almost 'unbear
ably intimate.. , , ' !..;
She drew a sharp breath, 'took
back her hand, though every nerve
In it cried to remain In that ting
ling contact: . He sld . something
and she said something, but '
words uiun't matter. Bhe was uim
ly conscious that Nyda Lomax had
arrived, looked regal and amazing
ly beautiful. And she - was also
dimly conscious that Winnie Shel
tou was holding court at another
end' of the room.
And she knew that so long as
Dalhart Komalne how fantastical
ly right his name was! walked
at her side, she would see all other
things dimly, hear only the high
thin notes of sound, and find: them
meaningless. And if he went
away, she would be straining to
ward him, for aB surely as- witches
had ever been burned at the stake,
ho had cast a spell upon her. And
she knew that he knew It and ex
ulted Ih that knowledge, looking
down upon her with thRt whimsical
smile upon his clear-cut, thin HiH.
They went In to dinner at last,
or It may have been toon, but Bhe
only knew that It was he who took
her in, her small white hand rest
ing qulvorlngly upon his black
coat sleeve. There would be pain
when she took It away, at the
table
If T. Q. Curtis had cast himself
In the role of a god, Insofar as the
destinies of the toven prettiest
girls in IiIb department store were
concerned, he looked a very genial,
kindly god Indeed as he sat nt the
bend of his table and looked wltr
proud eyes upon his nineteen
guests.
Mrs. Blanche Corwin, Hilly had
learned the morning after the
award had boon maile, had begged

given In money the cost ot the
I'lMilrig clothes which sho had won
as a successful contestant. An
Invalid 'daughter' mailo money of

Hilly found herself only two
places moved from, her hoht, her
dinner partner on her left being

lent man of middle-age. On her

wishing that she dared look into
Dal Romaine's oyos fdr a moment
to see how he had been affected.
She was going to hate Pretley

too good to be dining with shop

young man of discrimination that
I looked llko an autumn dryad.
It's dreadful, after that, to bo told
that one looks like a lady." '
:. Dal Romalne'B low chuckle re
warded her. "You are a dryad

he whispered, his breath warm und
sweet on her cheek. .

"I think It's a lovely party.!' She
opened her luuoeeul blue eyed still
wider. "Such charming men"
and she glanced up and down the
long table "even it they do seem
a Utile at a loss as to what to say
to 'poor but honest working girls'."
"T hose souiologlcii experi
ments!" Presley Warburton growl
ed under his clipped muHKCho, as
if he sensed that the Impudent
young thing on his left had been
rebuiviug him.
Billy grinned, "und gave a side

narrowed eyes a Biuilu flickering
over his lean Hindu-dark face.
"You look like a gluel'ul, wicked
llttlo Puck when you grin 'like
that," ho told her. "Now what are
you thinking?" he demanded, us
If he had u right to know.
"I was just reminding myself
that you cuu't be an East ludtau,

and with an aunt like Mrs. .Mea

Boston, but every time 1 Btait to
speak to you I have the curious
leoliiig thut 1 ought to speak some
strange' foreign tongue to you.';
So you feel it. too," he sum at
lutt in an almost expressionless
voice, so low and quiet it wus. "1
kinew that first day thut you
did. Some day I will tell you why,
for It was meuut that you should
know. As for the dark skin, the
Oriental cast to my features, I urn
French and gypsy, on my father s
side. My father married , Mrs1
Meadows' sister, and 1 was brought
un in London and Boaton and New
York. My aunt would like to wash
the dark, gypsy stain out ot my
blood, because, being a mixture of
French gypsy and Boston is not
quire respoetuble, you know. Tell
me" his face changed miracul
ously with his smile b he bent
closer to her "does . tho brown
gvpsy stain in my Bkln repel you'f"
"Oh, Mr. Romaine, listen!" Nyda
Lomax called out imperiously,
"Can you tell fortunes if we cross
your palm with silver?" i
A stab of pain so sharp that she
felt mortally wounded shot through
Billy's heart. So ho had told
Nyda, too. Cheap, theatrical! She
hated him!
