The rest of his sentence was swallowed in
another roaring avalanche of sound as the
audience reiterated its cries of Bravo! Encore!

Then. quickly. sharply, silence For the
gypsy had come back.
She spoke word to the Tartar musicians
who squatted in a corner of the stage. They
bent over their instruments with an abandon
of haunting, minor harmonies. while Katya
began her dance with slow, gliding movement
a dreamy smile on her lips
SUDDENLY. savagely. the music peaked to a
high note AS suddenly, as savagely the
gypsy jerked into whirl. Faster and faster

butterfly. Jeweled anklets and bracelets jingled
and claShed with every step.
Shamyl could hear the staccato beating of
his own heart. He leaned forward. He stared
This, he thought, the dance of all the
East with its grace and its cruelty, it's softneSs
and its strength and its cloyng sweetness. He
forgot French monoc!e and English clothes;
forgot Europe.

his native Tartar oh moon of delight and

Whirling past close to the footlightS, Katya
heard. She smiled, spoke blurred breathless
words: "Zu aynah shssheen'-"Ah, hawk-eye!
/ like you!"
Suddenly, she gave shriE. high pitched
yell, Hail"
The music stopped abruptly. The dance was
over. She salaamed, touching the floor with
the tips OF her henn&-stained fingers Then
she stood straight and still, death-still as the
desert moon. And an enormous hush, like a
PAIL dropped over the cabaret: and was shat
tered few moments later, as again there came
deafening appause-as hands clapped walking
sticks pounded, dagsers rattled-as flowers
gloves, money, jewels were thrown on the stage
Tumut and excitement continued crescendo
long after Katya had left: lcng after the Negro
musicians had again commenced blaring out

The scene was Russian. 1t was Asiatic It

Basil Webb. And Boris--why, the man is a

And so, few minutes later, Prince Shamyl
was ushered into Katya's dressing room and
found her yet more lovely without her stage
makeup, her small, oval features resembling
an eighteenth century miniature with the
short. straight nose. the tiny ears, the beautiful
mouth. the steel-gray eyes that charmingy
blended arrogance and a certain demure visit

"Mademosele," he said bowing over her
hand. "a good many things were offered you
tonight. Flowers. Gloves. Jewels. But one

fame, fair measure of rather diamond hard

Today she was a glittering cosmopolitan, and
she was more than perfectly Sef-possessed. But

Romantic? EXtravagant? Yes. But, some
how, he seemed honest. Ingenuously, disarm-

his slow smile. And. at that moment the
knowledge came to her that she had met men
who had fascinated her. but never, until to-
