CHAPTER ~.

The hand-clapping ceased as the
dancer reappeared, smiling and bow
ing.
81 will dance again If you wish"
she announced, in perfect English, "in-
| PRODUCING my new partner, Mr." she
glanced into the wings inquiringly--
''Senor Roberto 1t is his first public
appearance in this country, and we
will endeavOr to execute a variation
of the Argentine tango"
Mr.. Wharton was still talking.
''That's my way of raising a son. l
taught Bob to drink when / drank, to
smoke when l smoked, and all that.
My father raised me that way"
The opening strain Of q Spanish
dance floated out from the hidden mu-
sicians, Mile. Demorest whirled into
view In the arms Of a young man in eve
ming dress. S'le was still laughing, but
her partner wore a grave face, and his
eyes were lowered; he followed the in
tricate movements Of the dance with
some difficulty. TO Lorelei he appeared
disappointingly amateurish. Then a
ripple Of merriment, growing into a
guffaw, advised her that something out
OF the ordinary was occurring.
''The-scoundrel!" Hannibal Whar-
ton cried.
Merkle observed dryly; Hes won
your thousand. / withdraw what l
said about him; it requires a gigantic
intelligence to outwit you" To Lorelei
be added: "Thls viii be considered a
great joke on Broadway"
"That is Mr. Wharton's sonY'
at is-and the most dlssipated lump
Of arrogance in New York"
Bob" the father shouted, "quit that
foolishness and come down herer' But
the junior Wharton. his eyes fixed
upon the stage, merely danced the
harder A few moments later he sank
into chair near his fathes, saying.
"Well, dad what d'you think of my
educated legs? 1 learned that at night
school"
Wharton grumbled unintelllgibly,

the back of the theater as the curtain
rose and the chorus broke into sudden
sound. When he did speak it was with
unusual bitterness.
It's the rottenest business in the
world, Slosson, Two years ago she
was country girl; now she's a Broad
way belle. How long will she last,
dyou think?"
She's too beautiful to last long"
agreed the press agent, soberly, "espe-
cially now that the wolves are on her
trail. But her danger isn't so much
from the people she meets with as the
people she eats with. That family of
hers would drive any girl to the limit.
They intend to cash in on her; the
mother says So"
And they viii, toe. She can have
her choice of the wealthy FOUNDERS"
Don't get me wrong" Slosson has
tened to qualify. "She's square; I'M
derstandY'
OF course, object matrinony.' It's
the old story, and her mother will see

But what's the difference, after all,
Slosson? tn De hell for her, and a
sale to the highest bidder, either way"

"Yes. Bergman has made fortune

Speaking of the weary Wall street
workers, there will be a dozen of our

Merkle meditated in silence while
she attacked her food with a healthy,
youthful appetite that awoke his envy.

1--WE travelled some" observed
Merkle, "but this city is getting to be
the limit"
She nodded her amber head. "There's
only one Paris, after all, and that's
New York"
The meal grew noisier; the orches-
ira interspersed sensuous melodies
from the popular successes with the
| tantalizing ragtime airs that had set
the city to singing. Silent-footed at
tendants deposited tissue-covered pack
ages before the guests. There was a
futter of excitement as the women be-
gan to examine their favors.
"What is it?" Merkle inquired, lean
ing toward Lorelei.
''The new saddlebag purse. See?
It's very Frenchy. Gold fttings-and
coin purse and card case inside. See
the monogram? Lilas picked these out
for Mr.. Harmon, and they're exqui-
site. We share the same dressing room,
you know"
Merkle regarded her with a sudden
new interest.
Them dare say you're close
friends?"
Were close enough--in that room
but scarcely friends. What did you
get?"
"A gold safety razor-evidently a
warning not to play with edged tools

JarvisY'
''No, why did you say that" LoreIei
asked, quickly, "and why did you ask
in that peculiar tone If she and were
friends?'
The man leaned closer, saying in
voice that did not carry above the
clamor:
81 suppose you know she's making a
fool of him? / suppose you realize
what 1t means when a woman of her
stamp gets man with money I'm her
power? You must know all there is
to know from the outside; it occurred
to me that you might also know some
thing about the inside of the affair.

doesn't show on the surface. That
woman is a menace to a great many
people, OF whom happen to be one"
You speak as If she were a danger
ous character, and as If she had delth-

defendingly. CAS- a matter Of fact. she
did nothing of the sort; she avoided
