for forty guests, II stlll seemed, with
It's shaded lights and its profusion of
flowers, like an oasis of color In the
middle of the huge, somberly lighted
apartment. Some of the faces of the
guests were well-snown to John
through their published photographs;
TO others he had been presented by
the prince upon their arrival. He was
seated between young American star
of musical comedy and Il lady who had
only recently dropped from the so
cial armament through the medium of
the divorce court TO return TO the the
alter of her earlier fame. Both showed
every desire TO converse with him be-
tween the intervals of eating and
drinking, but were constantly brought
To pause by Johns lack of knowledge

He raised his eyebrows slightly. For
a moment he glanced down the supper
table with the care of punctilious
host, to see that his guests were prop
erly seated. He addressed few
trlvialities to the musical-comedy star
who was sitting on his left. Then he
leaned once more toward the great

She turned her beautiful head and
looked at the prince through narrowed
eyes.
"After ALL" she asked, "what should

AS he passed through the farther
doorway he came face to face with
the prince.
"Where are you going?" the latter
asked.
"Mademoiselle Calavera has asked
me to get her some champagne" he an
swered.
The prince smiled.
81 Will see that 1t Is sent TO her al

your tete-a-tete there without inter.
ruption. "You are very much envied."

John replied. AS for me, am afraid

The smile faded from the princes

"You are leaving?" he repeated.
