"Oh--the poor brvtes!" she said.
Don't cry-there's q dariing!"
She drew back from the grating,
gathered herself up and crossed the

Astarte lay on The red mattress
Her hair was dishevelled, her eyes
infiamed. Salome put her bangle
laden arms about her.
"My poor little pigeon of a sister!
Don't break your heart over man,
dearie-they. only amuse themselves
with US"
Astarte began to sob Historically
again, hiding her face against Sa-
lome's bosom. Her own impulses
had been thwarted for Ave days. and
she was enraged and helpless and
unhappy.

not permit her to leave the house

Let me make you pretty-there's
q darling! Nothing helps one more
than eye-paint and some trinkets
and q smell of myrrh about ones

Astarte allowed herself to be par.
tally comforted. She sat up and
bathed her face and Salome combed
out her hair with a bone comb and
bound her brows with a plated
green-and-purple fillet. Then she
dressed her in a very short green
jacket. stiff with silver thread, and
a skirt of purple silk that fell from
a low, tinselled loin-belt.
Betwixt belt and jacket the satin
skin, magnoliawhites was exposed.
Rounded silver anklets set off her
narrow ankles. Salome arranged
the little pots of kohl. vermilion and
blue paint for the eyelids and the
brushes with which to APPLY them.
