THE tenth year after the war found Hudolf Straum much lll.e scoit-s of other young men In Wull street, ri-i pt fr four deep scars on hi forehead ,iit under his shilling blond hair. I'e le were seeing again the slump ".Made In t!eriuauy" on ehlnawnre and toys wUhout rancor, Teutonic or chestra directors nnd nlncem were tourlni; the States without heln.t mobbed. America was peace minded. Hudelf had always been peace minded. To this day he had hut a vague Idea what the war was all about. The master key of Itudolf's life was music. All day he hummed fragments from the xreat composers, while comput ing foreign vidues in his Wall street case. One evening he was eating his sup per In his tiny kitchenette domain when the notes of a Chopin nocturne suddenly arrested his Jaws In the net of crunching a lettuce leaf, lie re mained still, trying to locate the piv Ishlng sound. From the ndjolnlnj: apartment surely, lludotf never moved until tlx piaiilst'a hands came to re.t. Then he finished eating his s;ilad, cof. fe and bite of cheese. Presently -o crashing, thunderous nmeerto of (Jrleg, Hudolf relaxed, smiling, beat I lied. What a touch! What feeling! What emotion yearn liiwly rvprcMMNl ! A mastec pliudst a professor of music, no doubt. The music ended with a (herd thar brought haupy guoselleslt to ItudolfN frame. Slowly he roue, Impelled In answer In terms of his own. Snou .1 Pliant tenor floated forth-ln an nrl , from 1'aKllaccl, bird-clear, swelling In volume as if truiin8 to erape the eneriuuhineiit of tlie fliit. Had Rudolf been mindful of sunlit sfive his melody, he might have henrd the creak of boards outside his door as a slim girl crept- cloae, laying her ear to the crack Unit she might catch every overtone and una nee, her blue eyes clotted In Joy, This Interchange of rhapsody cn tlnuei evening after evening, Hudolf s silver plaintive notes were answered by nocturne, scherto, polonaUe and fugue. Arriving one evening from the street, weary with his stniggte over dollars, marks, guldens and pmnuU sterling. Rudolf was thrilled by a vis Ion In his vestibule a small, hlu eyed creature saying "Darn!" as she tried vainly with nail file and door Key to iear an envelope from her letter bo. She colored as Rudolf came upon her, but his dUarmlng smile and friendly eyes sured h-r he liked the "darn" and could ofTrr equiv alent in a richer language If the "vNIon" needed any more. Vexation fudliig from her fa'. she said: "It's ImpoKklble to ill,' anything out! of these old -fashioned mall hove," "Hut It Iss oil fashioned houses that most I like." Rudolf was too overjoyed to care about his Kngllsh, for he snvr that thf Vision's mail box belonged to the apartment whence Issued the 11 m r velous music. Ills adoration shone In his wide Saxon eyes. Rudolfs dreams were now adorned with hazy pictures of operatic heroines that were won't to merge Into the trim figure he had seen Ir, the vestibule, ller playing spoke to his soul as her eyis had spoken that evening, lie did not know It ; but often those eyes were Just behind his door ns she Ms tenrd In ecstasy to his songs. opening this door suddenly one eve ning, Rudolf nearly precipitated her Into his arms. It a si hard to say which, Ann Fnrrls or Rudolf Straum, was more astounded. "Illmmeir cried Rudolf, "pardon, Frauleln I forget I am you my bell rlug and I rush" "Heavens, I've been leaning agalnsl the belli I'lease f 01 give nie It's your rlorlous music I cept out here to listen-" . Ann broke off, staring. The velvety tfiior continued. Khe repressed her wonder. Tou see, I love music sn. And your voice Is was-so perfet that l, who Is singing In your apartment? A friend?" Rudolf would have shed his blood to claim the voice as his own. "Krauleln, Frauleln, It Iss Caruso, That Iss the end. I tu'n him off now." Rudolf returned to (Ind Ann chok ing with laughter. "It Iss a joke, yes to one who plays like you, I'rauleln " Tin Ann Furrls." "Mees Farrls, forgive; do not laugh buf Ah, you are a musician It Is natural you Inugh nt my phonograph music. I live on music, Mees Farrls. I listen to you always. " Rudolf glanced reverently at Ann's hands. The girl bit her lip; laughter left nnd her face crimsoned. Then she met the worship In Rudolfs eyes with a sunny smile and said: "That's the finest compliment I've ever tin d. You see my music's a player piano!" The two stood and stared.
