Eyes arcbed with fan-shielded whis-
pers, and fair faces. foreshortened as
they turned back over powder-white
shoulders, followed their swallow-like
movement. From an overwhelming
circle OF masculine devotees Katharine
Fargo watched them with a smile that
cloaked an increasing and unwelcome
question.
Katharine had never looked more
handsome; a critical survey OF her
mirror at GLADDEN. Hall had assured
her OF that. Never had her poise been
more superb, her toilet more enraptur-
ing. She was exquisitely gowned in
rose-colored mousseline-de-soie. en-
broidered in tiny brilliants laid on in
Greek patterns. From her neck. in a
single splendid loop of iridescence

had adjudged the other merely sweetly
pretty. The Chalmers surrey had
stopped en- route for Shirley. but in
her wraps and veil she had then been
all but invisible. This had been Kath-
arine's first adequate view. and the
sight of her radiant charm had the
effect almost Of a blow.
