WHO THEY ARE

ELISE DUCHANIER is a beautiful
and innocent young girl of gentle
birth, who, ny misfortune, has sunk
to be a dresser in p small Montmar-
tire theatre. Elise has the care of
bed-ridden sister, who is attended by
an elderly doctor named Lepierre
who loves Elsie. The young girl is
dresser to the Partisan star.
LOLETTE, a gorgeous creature of
flaming passions, glaring appearance,
and equally glaring morals. Elise's
modesty and beauty are a thorn
in Lolette's jealous side, and the star
desires the downfall of her little
dresser. Lolette's manager and pro-
tectOr is
MAURICE BRUNEI, the great entire
preneur, while another follower of
Lolette's is a certain Count Mordac.
To this latter Lolette confides the
fact that she is determined to ruin
Elise.
Elise meets young American named
TOM KENDRICK, whom she at once
recognizes as a man of different
stamp from the hangers-on OF the
theatre. Kendrick asks Elise to &C.
company him to a great bal masque
anu the glrl accepts.
CHAPTER S-THE VELVET GLOVE
THE bal masque was fixed for three
days later, and those three days
were, for Elise, packed with
tremulous excitement. She told Mar
the she was going to the ball, and ar
ranged for an old woman in a room
to stay with MartheNfor the
night. But she largely suppressed Ken
drick in her account of it all, for, some
how, she conceived that Marthe might
not approve Of her going off with a
man of whom, after all, she knew very
little.
1t was Marthe who told Lapierre,
but he said nothing to Elise about it.
Subtly Lapierre was changing, becom-
ing quiet, more self-contained, like a
man with load of trouble set about
his shoulders. AaA4
Kendrick came to the dressing-room
each night and talked intimately with
Elise about what they would do, all
barriers Of restraint now broken down.
Lolette--and Elise found this omi-
more kind than ever. Elise
always neutrality-suspicious. a lance
point dipped in honey in this attitude
of the dancers. She talked to Elise of
the things she should wear at the ball,
and, finding that she was contemplating
an attempt to manufacture a fancy
dress after the style of the old peasant
costumes in her native Normandy, said:
"Oh, but there is no need for that.
Now, see, have a dress, so chic, which
l have never worn. We are of a size,
we two. The dress was for Nice
when l sprained my ankle. You will
remember, perhaps. No? Well, it
was so. 1 will lend it to you. No!
No! No protests, please. am delight
