Old Furniture Beautified
Tn this day of lovely paints, old
furniture is an asset because you
can do such interesting things
with It. A housewife had an
odd asortment of cheap pieces of
furniture, which she made for
her guest room. She 'used a gloss
paint la a soft lavender. She
8be painted the bed, an old dres
ser and an arm chair the same
oft lavender. The color was del
icate, bat this paint Is washable.
She upholstered the chair In a
black and lavender cretonne and
put hangings at the window to
match. The accessories in the
room carried out the same color
scheme.

HEAD TBIS FIRST:
A tender and thrilling romance ooj
covt n into the marriage of Bxjrd
Hamilton and Larry Browning. They
pent the night at the Blackstone, tn
Cincinnati, where Larry's friend were
giving a party in their honor. Larry a
friends, who had seemed so distln
fuishid a few hours before, had lost
some of their glamour. Byrd felt a
deep sympathy for Margy Duncan, who
had struggled along in poverty, rais
ing her three little children, without
her husband's love or co-operatiov.
Chet Sverson, a friendly sort of per
son, tried to help Byrd through a dif
ficult evening, while he wondered how
the spoed-loving Larry happened to
marrt this little puritan.
NOW UO ON WITH THE STORY)
CHAPTER V
THE racket was increasing.
A plane was playing some
where, and a victrola and a
radio had combined to drown it
out. The result was a cacophony
of discord that rent the air like
music suddenly gone mad. A
musician's nightmans! And ev-
gettlng mors driafcs.
- Suddenly -j Byrd found herself
alone."-. Sfca'i- realised there . cer
tainly, was' a deficiency, a certain
la ck, tn her : behavior, for every
man drifted away from her la
search! of more exciting fields f
entertainment.
It was all perfectly horrible,
and she decided to look up Larry
andT tell him that she wouldn't
stand it another moment.
A half doten people w-hom she
hadn't met at all were tearing
through the length or the apart
ments, playing some sort of game.
As far as she could understand
the meaning of It, they were try
ing to catch a little brunette with
the idea of removing part of her
clothing.
"You said yon couldn't dance
In skirts, so you'll have to take
'em off!" shouted a young, silly-
looking man, racing pell-mell into
one room and out of another. He
motioned Byrd to join the chase
In another group, a girl had
reached the stage of the "crying
Jag" and was weeping on every
and all shoulders that would
stop long enough to sustain her
woe. In one hand sue was car
rylng one shoe, hobbling along
on the stockinged foot
"I can't find it anywhere," she
blubbered. "Someone's thrown
It into the rubbish."
"What have you lost?" asked
Ttvrd kindlv. thinking that It
would help her.
"Why I've los m' shoe an'
no one'll hel' m fin' it," she
wailed.
Just then Chet came up, and
Byrd and he joined in the gener
al laughter.
"She's lost her mind, too, I'm
thinking," he said to Byrd. "And
perhaps her happy home. Her
husband's furious with her. Told
her if she didn't sober up 'imme
jately he'd divorce her. Isn't
that last like a man drunk to the
gills Itimself?"
What did she say to man
asked Byrd.
"She said she d never lorgive
him as long as he lived, unless
he apologized far an' wide an
'andsome.' " Byrd couldn t heip
Joining Chet in laughter.
"Aren't they a scream when
they're like that?" he asked, wip
ing his eyes.
"Not at all!" said Byrd, with a
hard little edge to her voice.
"They're terrible! And they
start quarrels which I suppose
takes weeks to make up and all
about nothing."
"Yen, sometimes. That's my
experience, too.- But most of the
time they're Just funny, and try
ing so bard to have the time of
their lives," he said, charitably.
"You'd have a little more fun,
too, if you drank along with us.
Just a little to help take off the
blue glasses and substitute the
rose-colored ones."
"I don't think I ever can," said
Byrd.
Byrd decided to change the
subject. Here was the first man
she had been able to talk to
sensibly.
Are you In Larry's office
too?" she asked.
"I'm working in a bank. First
National. Five years and I'm
not president yet!" He grinned
at Byrd amiably.
"I Just love banking myself.
You see. I worked two summers
In my father's bank in Jackson
ville. Father thinks I'm a born
accountant."
Suddenly she heard low laugh
ter and Larry's voice, pleading,
tense, magnetic, at fier elbow.
The window had been opened
wide to relieve the fetid, tired
air, streaked with clgaret smoke,
and the mixed aroma of human
beings and heavy perfumes which
twined like ribbons of gauze
through the atmosphere. From
behind the heavy, brocaded hang-i
ings at the window came the low
hum of voices., now cajoling, now
teasing, now debating.
India and Larry were" perched
knees to chins on the wlndowsill,
which was wide enough to make
quite comfortable but very dan
gerous seats.
Somehow the idea of Larry sit
ting there, where one little, un

him headlong, paralyzed Byrd.
She must warn him.
On some pretext, she must get
him out of there.
I'm going to take your ad
vice. Chet." She brought out
his name hesitatingly. "Is it
terrible for a married woman to
call a young man whom she has
Just met by his first name?"
"Sounds wonderful to me,
Byrd " he laughed.
"Well, I've changed my mind,
and I'll take a highball. Will
you get it for me?" Byrd smiled
at him, archly, but all the time
her thoughts were behind those
curtains.
Yes, indeed, she'd be a good
sport, even at the risk of bring
ing Larry's anger down her head,
but not to please Larry, was she
being one.
"A good sport " she mused
to herself.
The voices behind the hang
ings had suddenly stopped. Then
India's nervous words jangled
against her ears.
"That little wife of yours, oil
can, may not smoke or vamp or
even chew tobacco but you're
wrong about her not drinking. I
just beard her ask for a high
ball."
Suddenly, without warning,
Byrd slipped, inside the curtains.
India looked up at her. blankly,
then her face assumed a slightly
mocking expression. She con
tinued that low, rather remark-
strange, musical quality of an
oboe in it, with beautiful, minor
nuances runnlne up and down
like the chromatic scales
Byrd saw her for the first time
as a very attractive creature, one
of those slim. Cleopatra-like fig
ures, intensely alive and mobile,
with smoldering eyes that gave
nroof of the fire - which was
banked underneath the embers.
Her nose spread eager nostrils
over a red i mouth. And they
called her "Wildcat."
It suited I her. Vivacious,
stormy, listless, scornful, a hun
dred moods to tantalize her vic
tims. Byrd found herself star
ing at her openly.
She was so beautiful and so
terrible. !
Byrd suddenly realized that
she was ; standing there, white,
stricken, tongue-tied, unable to
tell them why she had entered
this way.i A Jealous wife they
were thinking. Her head was
whirling, and she was petrified
at the temerity, at her "nerve" in
rushing in upon them.
There was contempt and pity
in India's eyes.
Oh Larry!" Byrd suddenly
found her voice. She seized his
hands In hers. "I really wasn't
watching you, but I heard your
voices, and suddenly realized how
dangerous It was for ydi to sit
on this ledge with the window
open."
Suddenly India s load, strident
able laughter that had the laughter broke shockingly over

India laughed .again, unre
strainedly, helplessly, cruelly, j
"Larry," said Byrd, desperate
ly. "You know that Isn't time!
You know that I was only think
ing tbaf an accident might hap
pen to both of you. I wasn't
eavesdropping " Byrd was al
most in tears. L
Larry looked at her cooly. Why
in thunder did she have to make
such a damn fool of herself! In
front of India T In front of (ev
erybody? Byrd tried to clutch
Larry's arm, but he shook her
off. i
She felt completely alone. I A
blinding flash struck across the
sky, from one end of the horizon
to the other. Like a flashlight
from ah enormous camera. Ithe
world seemed to have gone un in
smoke. It had been wiped out In
a single blaze. 1
Then, after a century had pas
sed, she seemed to float up to ithe
light from the darkness below.
She saw the room again, and Chet
coming toward her with a high
ball.
Dated, she walked toward him.
He jsaw her groping toward him.
"Now, child," Chet admonished
her, suspecting by her pallor iand
the dead look Jn her eyes that
something had happened, "don't
let anything that happens tonight
worry you. Particularly L4rry.
Remember, this is his wedding
day. and India's taking it rather
hard."
Byrd smiled weakly.
"Not any harder than Larry."
she said.
"Brace up, old sport," said
Larry, tucking her hand under
his arm. "You've Just got to be
a good sport."
Byrd wanted to shriek.
"111 murder. In cold blood,
anybody who uses that expres
sion in my presence again," said
Byrd. almost savagely. As Chet
appeared about to speak, she; put
her fingers to her ears.
"Tell me what you're going to
say before I'll listen to you1 she
said. '
"Tomorrow, I'm going to give
that young man a good Id talk
ing to." said Chet, in his hiost,
yaicmiii manner. ;
"If Larry hadn't been In that
condition, he wouldn't have talk
ed to me like that," said Byrd, al
ready defending him. "Won't
you help me get him down to
our rooms?"
"You bet I will. I'm going to
et you another hiehball to
steady your nerves." and was
back immediately. "Look j at
the mob around that bar. ' It's
like a water-hole where alii the
animals come to drink."
"Come on. Byrd. drink : this
down like a good well, j It'll
make you sleep like a log." Their
eyes wavered in the direction of
the window. "Ill .end him
down as soon as I can. and in
u meantime, in keep a pro
tecting eye on bins. Count on
Conn Monte Crlatol" '
, Byrd flashed Chet a grateful
smile.'.. ;
8he stood sipping the glass he
had brought her until it was al
most empty. The : room became
a little indistinct, and she was
feeling drowsy.
The cool air of the corridor
felt good en her hot temples.
Chet unlocked her door and
turned on the lights for her. She
waved unsteadily toward one of
the beds.
"Sure you're all riaht?" he
asked, kindly, and slightly Wor
ried. "Shall I call a maid
help. 70 dress?".'-
"Oesh I undressed myself be
fore.. Qeeh . I "e'u do "it " now;
Byrd said, somewhat ; thickly.
Chet said good night, and closed,
the door, advising her to lock It.
As Byrd crawled uncertainly
into bed, laying her golden head
upon the white pillow, she slip
ped almost at once Into oblivion,
and her last conscious thought
was that somewhere a crowd was
celebrating something, . an Im
portant occasion.
. . . But to her It had no
meaning.
