he said. "A It happens, my theater
for the new (orm of cinema
opens a week from tonight. Natur
ally. It is iiiv desire to male this
pala occatian. MademolseUe, of
course, has tlie Kntltsh?"
He was almost apologetic as he
put that nuc:rtkn. It Rave Aileen,
a start. How simply he mlcht have
trapped her ar.d might even do
so vet. If she was not careful.
"Mr t hearts mural are from
tlie brush of an aru.lt friend of
Tm:rj. perhaps Mr. Chatmlng has
told you. I tried to reach him by
jjtucj- today, but it seems he Is out
of town.
If that wat true, Aileen did not
know It. She Trondered whether
Vhw ext' for coming to her dl
recily was a deliberate falsehood.
I wauled to ask Mr. Channtnt
-lielher he ani hts model would
not be my guest that evening.
You liavf svn the Rlrl perhaps?
ExiMitMie and charminn!"
Aileen only t:iruyed.
"But to iny mission," he went
on. Hearin ymi sift t)U aitw

course. I fclwui-d expect t pay the

Tliat gave Aileen a loophole.

thai. Ton see he has retained me
as an exclusive fai:re."
"Wiiat a pity!" lamented Kron-
berg. "And yet I cannot blame
htm. But prrha.a you would con
sent to b. ray guest that evening
also?" Aileen saw ttiat he meant
to insist on her presence If lie
could.
"May I te!l you later? she asked
"If my engagements permit. And
now, wiil you excuse me if I re
ceive my callers'' Aileen felt like
shouting for joy as she heard the
telephone.
CottiUniy. said Kronberg. He
gave i.o indention that the pur
pose of his VLsit was not pleasant
ly accomplished. "May I trust that
jour answer will be the one I hope
lor?"
'Er-rr.eor.e to speak to Mademoi
selle." Not a Nolan interrupted
apoloRftically.
'If it's posMble I shall be glad
to accept," Aileen answered.
'Hello! La Maf-que?" Aileen
haute Jimmy's voice. "Listen, old.
dear. I'm lere with Klein. We're
tip to our nks hi Uilngs. Would
you mind a lot U I don't come hack
to meet your saw-bones friend?"
-No I don't mind that but
Jimmy!" Aileen spoke in a guarded
whisper. " Arnold Kornberg was
JuM here . . . Yes. You see I
couldn't help it . . . And there's
aomc;hir.t vise thai mav be more
Important." Without comment
to its meaning, she told him of the
post r id and that Kronberg had
een it.
Ton' V. It worrr yo;:. Jinirrv
answered, "fly the way, X ran Into,
Ghick. X think he ll bt cropping
In. Tell htm about the doctor.
That ought to tickle him "
"What about Kronbergs sugges
tion?" '
-Nix on that!" he vetoed. -Well.
Tve got to run along, m be see
ing you"
He had hand hung up when
tot ilk announced Doctor Sauii
tiers. A (ear muuttaa later, she,
gave him her hand as he intro
duced hansel!. j
'So." he observed with a ahiir.-
ik-al sdiJa, "yoar mask Is more1
than a figment of the announcer's
tmagtnaUan. I rather wondered,
just bow true these stories about
yon were "
From tlie way he spoke, Aileen
was convinced that he had no sus
picion of tlie mask's real purpose.
"Oh, yes," she answered lightly.
"You see I am a mystery, and it's
really auite amuring being one, I
mean."
"It must be." He smiled "Most
people are so transparent. It's
rather intriguing to meet someone
who stirs the imagination. You
see, I've been trying to picture you
ever since I heard your voice. Only
somehow, I expected to see you
lace to Ifioe.
"Perlians I'm more appealing
as a mystery, she sujgested. "But
speaking of voices, I know what
you mean. When I first spoke to
you, over the wire, I'd an idea what
you would be like
"And am I?" lie Inquired.
"Almost excetly, she told him
' But It dosen't always work that
way. I've often listened to singers
orrr the radio. Then, sometimes.
when I've met them, they didut
fit my pictures. Perhaps that's be
cause all voices sound different on
the air."
"Rcaliy? That's very interest! r.j.
I've never been lu a studio."
Then vou must come sometime."
'I should like to," he assured
her. "To me. there Is something
marvelous tn what radio may be
come At a physician, I can see an
even greater mission that it may
fulfill. To-day, it not only brings
us great, but mediocre music. But
tlie air to already creating its own
artists and composers. Suppose, If
you will, tliat some day. there may
be broadcast physicians. Perhaps
they will prescribe with music lor
our natlional ills. Not lectures
habits and nostrums, but tonics
com pom id-d of melodies that may
make us a better world."
"What a wonderful thought!"
Aileen exclaimed. "You really must
see the station."
"And perhaps be hailed as a
lunatic!" Doctor Saunders laughed.
"Still, my dream is no more laucl-
ful than radio Itself would have
been two decades ago. When I see
the marvelous effect of radio
my patients, it naturally appeals
tot me as a medium that may pos
sess curative powers wo doctors
have never yet conceived."
"You really believe that pos
sible?" Aileen was Impressed.
"Perhaps. Who knows?" He smll
ed. "But let's forget my visions, and
tatlk about yourself. You are won
derfully generous to offer to oome
and sing for us. And I know you'll
love my kiddies Just as they'll
love you.
"Tell me about them!"
As Doctor Saunders continued,
Aileen was so fascinated that an
hour passed before either of them
became aware of it. Then the ar
rival of Emile Glucic awakened
them to the time.
"You two must know each other!"
Alleeu was elated as she presented
them. "I want Doctor Saunders to
tell you what he's been telling me,
And I rant to go to his hospital
to sing for his little patients. You
