Roven times In the last three weeks
It had hnppeued. Ones It was a glove,
once scarf, twice a hnmlKerclitft.
Seven times In all Laurens hud re
turned Into to hie apartment to dis
cover the air shaded with that Indefi
nite perfume and some article of
feminine apparel carelessly flung on
his tublo. And always, from the slim
vane on Ma mantel, there drooped
fresh rose.
He, Eduard Laurens, was burled up
to his eyes In a mystery bewilder
ing, opalescent, violet-scented mystery
that was sprinkled wtth rose leaves
and romance. He laughed softly ss
he touched the knob of his door end
reached for his keys, when suddenly
the knob turned tn his hand, the door
was drawn slowly open and he stood
face to face with a strange young
woman.
For a moment be thought he bad
made t mistake. .
"I'm sorry," he said. 1 thought this
was Lauren's spartmeoL"
It la," she smiled slightly, gather
ing herself in band. "I am Mrs. Laurens."
I dldnt know there was a Mrs.
Laurens, but I've been out of town for
some JUnie. My name's Barton," lied
Laurens.
In sn hour be returned and she was
gone, but pinned to the curtain that
shut off his music room was t note:
I came once too often. Tour
friend, Mr. Barton, called and caught
me as 1 was leaving. I beg of you to
forgive me If any complications should
arise from the awful fib I told him. It
was the wonderful melodies of your
new open that first drew me down
from the apartment above. I must
caution yon to hive the latch fixed on
the window on the fire esrpe. Under
the circumstances I'm leaving the
apartment upstairs tonight This, ot
course, la good by and I'm sorry.'
The next morning be was somewhat
surprised to open bis uptown studio
door to an elderly man whom be re
membered to bar met at some time
or other, but could not place.
1 bat to presume," said the old
gentleman, "and I hate to ask. favors,
Mr. Laurens, but I've a niece who has
studied abroad for three years. She
thinks she can slug. I do not know.
Perhaps she can. She has beard ox
your new opera, and wants to.be given
a chance at a small singing part."
"Why," said Laurens, cordially, Td
be very glad to give her voice a try-
out Bring her up tomorrow at three.
If It Is convenient'
And so the next day at three they
came, and Laurens was astounded, for
It was none other than the girl who
claimed to be Mrs. Laurens.
I was sure you could sing," be in
