THE IVORY BELLS By JAMES BUCKHAM lift kr Short Blorr rub. Co.) MT NAME Is Imogen Dlller, and I am twenty-five years old. The reader will, per haps, understand mure readi ly from tills statement the confession I am about to muke. lleltig a womun, I am naturally a believer In dreams. I think I never knew a woman who waa entirely free from this mild form of superstition. And being compara tively young as Ufa Is estimated nowadays 1 am romantic. I was twenty-two when my heart first began to hunger for sympathy, for appreciation, for affection. How natural, how Inevitable, Is this period In a girl's life history I It Is a con dition aa normal as the unfolding of a bud. And equally natural, I think, are her little Innocent Instinctive girlish device for rendering herself beautiful In dress and manner, her love for going Into company there to meet the rank and llle of those from whom must be recruited her possible prince. She shines In looks, In thoughts. In words, In actions, with the glow of that hsrdly acknowledged desire within her breast the desire for the true, manly love which ahe feels that she can so opulently repsy. If the world only knew! It laughs at girls who are dying for unattained love. It would weep could It see Into their heart. Ho terrible la It to feet youth slipping away, and with It that hope for which, by the decree, of God, moet women live. It waa one day, soon after Ihed passed my twenty-third birthday, that a 'terrible thought came to me, the thought that I should be over the hill of youth In a little while, and going down the other side; that the hope I had allently cherished, whlrh I had never as yet conaldered Impossible, might soon be a leHsenlng one. I cannot tell what flood of depression overwhelmed me. All that day. and far Into the night, my soul cried out to God for the precious gift without which my life would mean nothing. Among my dreams that night, when at last I slept, there wss one that visited me twice, and seemed to be. In vsgue way, -so anawer to my pasabitiate prayer. I ssw myself standing on a bare hillside, whose sloie waa black with ehsdow. In the mldat of the gloom I ralaed my bands, something white csme Hosting down etit of the vloutls. It looked like a wreath of snowy flowers; but as ft drifted alowly down, and aettled In my outstretched hands, I ssw that It was a necklace of little white bells. I put the bells about my neck, and Instantly a glorious burst of sunlight Illumined the hill, and I awoke. Twice, I aay, this dream came to me, once In the middle of the night, and once Just before waking In the morning. Aa I opened my eyes In the real sun light, the dream seemed so actual and so vivid, that I clutched my bosom, thinking to catch the bells before they melted away. Aa I conaldered the vision, I said to niyneir, "There la a .hint In this dream worth heeding. Hitherto I have neglected personal adornment, think ing that l.ove must Indeed be blind. If he cannot see beyond the, surface glitter of that which Is foreign even to the physical person. Hut It may be that Love Is not blind, only wan dering of sight. tWtea, perhaps, some thing crude, glittering, conaplcuous, eaten his eye, and draw It whither It msy discover the better thing that Ilea behind 1 I will see!" Every girl knows perfectly well the kind and amount of her own personal attraction. 1 know what people called me what I wns: "Not exactly pretty, bat stately, Impreaalve ; a ma tronly girl, of the Dutch madonna type." Such a type Is not generally winsome. It Is too quiet. Men will jostle a madonna who stands between them and coryphee. Yet, If the madonna could only fascinate and at tract them at first sight, as the cory phee does, how much more they would admire and love her I It la all question of Initial fascination. With some such Idea eddying through my mind, I went to a famous firm of manufacturing Jewelers, and gave them novel commission to make me a necklace of Ivory bells. I bade them spare no expense; to make the ornament the moat exquisite thing that art could devise; no ma-' terlal to be used but the finest, most transparent Ivory; the bells to be perfect and complete In every detail, even to the tiny, vibrant tongues j and all united by a chain of polished Ivory links. "Even If the dream prove In no sense prophetic," I thought, "it has given me the Idea of an absolute ly unique ornament. I shall not be nnotlced when I wear It." Two thousand dollars was the cost f my necklace. I am not wealthy, but I am by no means poor, I could pay the money, and I did. Immediately a new experience came Into my life. I became a renter of admiration! Hitherto, with other quiet, Inconspicuous girls, I had been comparatively unnoticed In company. But from the first occalnn when I appeared wearing my necklace of Ivory bells, I waa ringed about with admirers. And the most Intoxicating part of It wns thnt I realty could not determine whether the Ivory bolls were tho sole attraction, or whether they hnd called out and emphasised some actual personal charm that mad hit admirable, f do not remember that word was ever suld to me In society about. the ornament; society Is too conventionally polite for that. Hut I wondered, especially when the men thronged about tne, whether they were looking at the exquisite work manship of the bells, or at the girl who wore them. It was during this brief season of social triumph that a revela tion csme to me, which accounted, In large part, for uiy disquie tude of a year past. The prince had cornel Indeed, he had been near me for a long time, and I had not known that 1 loved him. He was a silent man, a poet some called htm a dreamer. He went Into society, not for pleasure's sake, but that he might study human nature' for the same reason that he went Id o the lumber camps of the North, nd the alums of the great cities. The first time he came to me, at the dull tinkle of the Ivory belli), I felt an almost overpowering desire to stretch, out my strong young arms and sweep from before me all the simpering circle on whose outskirts he stood. Then, for an Instant and the only time I ran remember, until the at range thing happened he looked Into my eyes, and I became as a child before him. Afterwards, as often as he rame near me, such a rapturous thrill ran through alt my being that I could scarcely keep from crying out. Yet be alone, of all the hovering circle, seemed most Interested, not In me, but In the Ivory bells. I con tinually caught him atudying tbem; and the thought maddened me, that he, whose love meant all the world to me, admired only the ornament upon my neck. One summer evening there waa a grand ball given at an out-of-town villa. Ho and I were there, with a great company of the gayest of the clty'a gay. As naual, I wore my Ivory bells, and, as naual, those who ad mired them, or me I could not tell which gathered around me. As the stifling night wore on, and dance fol lowed dunce, I grew faint and weary, and felt as If I must have a breath of heaven's pore air. As I niove.d to ward the wide-open French windows, from which one could atep upon the veranda, the oet crossed my path. He stopped and I saw that his eyes were fixed upon the Ivory bells. Much aa I loved him, 1 could almost have smitten him then I He spoke: "Are yon going out for a breath of fresh air. Mademoiselle Dlller? Bo waa L May I have the honor of ac companying you?" The honor I My soul surged within me. I was about to return some stereotyped refusal, when the thought came to me: "la not this the hour of futet Yes I I will prove to myself, this night, that It Is the Ivory bells alone he carea for." So I put my hand upon his arm, and together we went out Into the night. Oh, that beautiful, soft night f Could a thouaand years blot out Its memory I The stnrs twinkling so purely in the blue-black sky; the rest ful sighing of the trees; the patter of a fountain near by ; the music floating out across the shrubbery. "Iet ns go down by the lake," my companion said; "there we may rest and enjoy the coolness." Down the terraces we went, arm In arm. There waa a trembling between us. I could not tell whether my hand wavered upon hla arm, or hla arm shook under my band. Hut when we reached the little artificial lake, I aank upon a bench, and he, atandlng a little aalde, stood before me. Some gaudy lanterns, not far away, cast faint glow over os.- The alienee grew oppressive. I felt hla eyes upon the Ivory bells. Sudden ly my spirit rose to the level of Us purpose. 1 started up, withdrawing a little, and snatched the glistening circlet from my neck. The next In staut It waa flashing In the crystal water of the lake, sinking so slowly that It seemed to hang suspended In the tide, like the golden goblet that the poet saw from the bridge at mid night x Then 1 looked at my poet, and all of life trembled upon that Instaut Oh, gracious heaven I Hla eyes were fixed, not upon the sinking bauble, but upon my face. Love had passed the crucial teat. At thut supreme moment something like rushing darkness come over me, something with roaring wings, as of a great bird. I fuluted from the awful stress; but even aa I aank, I felt my lover's arms encircle me. I have confessed. For me the world la made new, and all things In It My poet smiles, as I rend him what I have written about the Ivory bells. He declares that he never saw them In hla life until they flushed from my hand, that night, Into the lake. If he seemed to look uion tbem, he swears It wns because he dared not lift his eyes to the soul that burned In mine. The light had slain htm, except It had been of love. Po$$iblt to Plata Rubbtr 8.
