"Do you ever see Gidsv Morell any more?" Marko startled her by anting, creaking in on tier reverie. Lila was glad to be distracted. "Xo, she's gone completely domestic," she told the man opposite. "Gyiy's turn ed maternal and middle class and all that." She didn't want to sound spiteful; after all, Mnrko had ndiuircil Ojipjy. So he amended hastilv. "Such a nitv the married that young nobodv. Of course he'a all ri;ht well born and so forth, Lut he'll never get any where," .see She tipped her tea with tho tuner- ior air tho reserved for people who hadn't much of the world't good, "Funny I always thought Gypsy would do something wonderful," she went on, wanting to seem gracioua in her lover'a eyes. "Become a singer or an actress or something. She had talent and looks but marriage simply squelched her." "Pretty little thing," Marko com mented idly. "Lovely eyes. And the most graceful hands in the world." Lila didn't like this. Marko would have to be taught (Inter, of course) that you didn't soy things like that to one woman about an absent mem ber of the sex. "Really?" Her languor was dis tinctly forbidding. She glanced about her cautiously. "I'll go on without you," she whis pered. "Won't do to be seen together just liefore news of the break leaks out. l'ou never know when one of those awful column writers is lurking about. They seem to be everywhere." Lila went through the marble and silt foyer alone, very slim and ele gant in her pale costume, the fur making a dark background for her lovely face. Eyes were turned as she passed and admiring glances followed ner. sne enjoyed every bit of it. When she was Mrs. Marko Broughton she would have more of it. Admiration. adulation from all sides. She went back to the apartment in a taxi, although the long greyhound car just beyond the " awninsed en trance was hers for a beckoning fin ger. 8ome day soon that car would be hers and the squarejawed Finn at tbe wheel would take her orders. To Tiffany's," she could Imazine herself, speaking through the silver tube, command quietly. She could even see the Hues that would be laid out for her choice emeralds, rubies, star sapphires. Ihere would he narrow bracelets fashioned of stones clearer than clear water... Meantime she fumbled in the pale leather bng for change. The taxi man thanked her for the tip and she went swiftly into the foyer. It would he lonely tonight. Mnrko dared not call and she bad made no arrangements to dine with anyone. She ahivered at the prospect of a solitary dinner. She rang up several people she gnew, feverishly and in haste. Freddy, Chloe and Dick Van Ness. One was engaged and the others were out of town. Of a sudden impluse she dialed Gypsy's number. It would be a lark, she reflected, to take pot lurk with the Weavers this night see how the other hslf lived. But the bell rang dismally, rang and rang and rang. Gypay's little nest was plainly deserted. There was trouble, real trouble that late April afternoon in the house of Wearer.
