Heart's Haven
Ey RUTH ROSEMARY CORBY
Upstairs Gina and Eve. towel
ing their hair, were making sug
gestions to each other about pos
sible apparel. Gina was pos
seted with a desire to dress up.
"You'd think, in a lovely old
house like this, thcre'd be scads
of old-fafhioned dresses," she
said. "And there may be if
we look around. I want some
thing really picturesque some
thing that will make that ice
berg of a Brett Rodman look at
me. instead of at the furniture."
"Look," said Eve suddenly,
"there must be an attic to this
house. And there are always
old clothes in attics."
But it was found only after
the opening of many doors, with
much laughter, and more than
one startled "Oh !" when one
or the other ran into a cobweb.
They climbed the stairs and
came out into a dim, raftered
room full of the usual odds and
ends that accumulate in an attic!
A trunk in a corner proved to
contain just what they had hop
ed to find: dress after dress,!
carefully packed away, exuding
a faint fragrance of lavender)
when they were shaken out of
their folds. j
Gina finally chose a garnet
red frock of thick rich satin, and
Eve decided on a flowered mus
lin. They even found little heel
less slippers, with ankle rib
bons, that would go on their feet
If they handled them with great
care, for the materials were fra
gile with age, and felt as though
they might fall apart in their
hands.
Like a couple of conspirators
the girls, with their bundles un
der their arms, hurried along the
gallery to their rooms.
"Lock your door," said Eve
in parting. "Don't let anyone
see you until the bell rings for
dinner. We'll go down together
after everyone else is In the din
ing room."
The dinner gong sounded soon
afterwards. Eve waited behind
her door, listening until the
sound of footsteps outside had
died away. She turned the key
then and opened the door softly.
Just as another door creaked
further around the gallery and
Gina tiptoed out. Prepared as
they had been for each other's
appearance, both girls were, for
a second, startled at the com
plete transformation the beau
tiful old gowns made.
Gina's fair hair had dried now
and was pulled up on top of
her head in a top-knot and tied
with a ribbon. The skirt of
the heavy satin gown was very
wide and full and billowed out
her slim waist, emphasized by a
tight plain bodice that left her
white shoulders and arms bare
Eve had merely run a comb
through her cloud of dusky hair,
and It tumbled down over the
shoulders of the sprigged muslin
dress, with its long tight sleeves
and square neckline. There
were pink ribbon bows at the
shoulders and at the narrow
waist, and the skirt was ruffled
and frilled until It stood out like
a ballet dancer's skirts. On
tall Eve the hem eame only to
the top of the satin shoe ribbons
erossed at the ankles and tied
In hark.
"We're too quaint," said Olna.
"Now aren't we?"
They linked arms and went
down to the dining room. Side
by ride, they stood In the open
doorway. At that moment the
door at the opposite end of the
room opened and Mrs. Jackson
came through from the pantrv
She was carrying a silver tureen
and, as the door swung shut be
hind her, she glanced up and
saw the two girls.
Everything seemed to happen
at once. With a roar, the wind
hurst open the double French
doors opposite the tbaie and the
randies went out as suddenly as
If snuffed out by one huge ex
tinguisher. At the same Instant
the tureen In Mrs. Jackson's
hands crashed to the floor, the
cover rattling and clattering
across the bare floor, making a
metallic accompaniment to a
thin, wailing cry that rose high
above the uproar.
Gina and Eve stood as if pet
tnfied in the doorway, their
figures outlined dimly by the
hanging lamp In the hall behind
them.
Chapter Ten
fhoate from a Book
"Art you 111?" Inquired Mrs.
Marbury.
Mrs. Jackson looked embar
rassed. "No ma'am," she ald
"I was just surprised "
"Surprised?" echoed Julie. "I
should think you would be u.ed
to a wind like this if you've
Jbeen living here for years."
i "Yes ma'am." said Mrs. Jack
son, adding a little sullenly, "it
wasn't the wind." She said no
imore, as Jackson returned with
I the ni'in and went to work on
the spilled soup.
"Well, certainly something
must have made you scream,"
said Brett, almost smiling now.
"Did you see a ghost?"
Mrs. Jackson, stung to a quick
retort, said sharply:
"That's just what I did. at
least what I thought for a min
ute. But now I see It was just
the two young ladies."
Mr. Howe now glanced at
Gina and Eve, who had taken
their places at the table.
"If these girls reminded you
of something in the past history
of this house, there must be an
interestine story in it," he ob
served dryly,
"There is a story," admitted
Mrs. Jackson. "You wouldn't
want to hear it, though, not if
Mrs. Marbury's thinkink of buy
ing the house. It s not a pretty
story. Many's the time I've been
sorry I ever read It, nights when
the wind was blowing hard."
"Read it?" put In Ham.
"Where did you read it?"
"Well," said Mrs. Jackson,
"there's an old book on those
shelves near the fireplace, writ
ten by one of the people who
used to own this place."
"How are we going to find
the famous story?" Gina, lead
ing the way to the library, threw
over her shoulder at the proces
sion following her. With one
accord as they left the dining
room, everybody had started in
the same direction. Neil, last in
line, heard Gina's remark and
called out:
"Why not ask Mrs. Jackson to
get it for us? She probably
knows where it is. Don't you,
Mrs. Jackson? He raised his
voice, retracing the few steps
back to the dining room and
calling through the door.
"Don't I what? inquired the
caretaker, very busy over her
clearing away.
Know just where to find that
ghos-t story."
"Come on in and show us,
Julie called from the library.
We've got to have something
to do in this godforsaken place."
I wouldn't like to be the
cause of upsetting anybody," she
said doubtfully. But Eve join
ed Julie's plea.
"Oh, come on," she urged. "I
can hardly wait to hear the story
of the ghosts we resemble so
strongly. It's the most romantic
thing that ever happened to
me!"
"I don't really believe that,"
said Brett, his dark eyes glinting
as he looked down at her. "Why
must you exaggerate?"
"Gibbons' Decline and Fall of
Rome," he read, pausing an in
stant to peer at the faded titles
before moving on another two
feet.
