Of you" said Chummy stoutly.
you might just as well say I
shouldn't paint"

How difierent?'
"Well, the world sees your work
it doesn't see you"
oh. It's because the world has
to see judy herself. And you men
don't like it-even though she's
nothing 10 you. At least, she's moth
ing 10 Alan.
II told you II was ne mans

lowing something In his throat"
It's Observation-Disclosures
jealousy, Bastien," said Chummy:
ION Alan's part, at any rate. OF
course, I can't help knowing that
you care for Judy, but you say you
don't mind her dancing"
That's because I'm cur c with
the artistic temperament, and 1t
gets the better OF the man in me-"
"Bastien.' said Chummy earnest
". I'm sure you'll win Judy's love
in time"
do you think so7"
I'm sure OF %. You're 50 faith
ful. and she is so fond o. you"
Have you noticed that?" he
asked with sarcasm.
~Of ourse I have. And now
you're getting q well and she's
going TO be famous. Some day
you'll be a t.r~t pair!"
And you. Chummy-when are
you 20 be married."
Next month"

mot the actual day. I don't
want 10 90 away until something
Is settled baout Judy. I couldn't
leave her; and we were going
abroad at once
II was just a week after the death
OF Guarvenius. Another grave for
Judy 10 visit and tend! She had
Cancelled all her model work and
spent her days in her own rooms.
G~uarvenius, apparently, had no
relatives but "a young nephew
youth whose remarkably good looks
were marred by unmistakable
signs or dissipation. He happened
TO be in New York at the time,
having Just come over from Paris,
and now took charge OF everything,
In the absence Of a will he was the
sole heir. He shut up the dancing
school and sold the lease Of the
house with all tie furniture and fit
tings-lock, stoCl. and barrel.
He vas not interested in dancing
as q high art. He di all his dane
ing at the Moulin Rouge and the
Bal Butler. He did not trouble
himself about his late uncle's pupils
at all. He ely very reluctantly
allowed the great Marie Fomena
TO choose a personal souvenir from
the masters private belongings
and he was rude to Judy at the
funeral; but, as she spoke nc
French, and he no English, II made
no impression on her.
For more than 10 days Judy saw
nobody put Chummy. Apt to ex-
~aggerate everything, she behaved
as II she mad been left an incon-
solable widow. She would discuss
no plans for her future. Only once
did she talk about anything bu'
Guarvenius and his goodness x
her, and that was when she askec
her friend when she was to mar
rled.
I'VE have postponed It, Jud,
darling" Chummy said. Il couldn'
60 away and leave you Ike thi.
without knowing what you are 90
ing to do"
Then Judy spoke very decisively
That's all nonsense, Chummy'
You know I shall be all right. ]
can go to work again as 500 as J
want 20, and shr-- when t. got
over the shock. I could always get
on the stage now. Anybody would
give me a ~chance-Im sure Of
that"
But you said you were never 60
ING to dance again, Judy"
Il know I did: but that was after
the first blow. I'VE been thinking
since then. I feel sure that he
would have wanted me 10 20 on
dancing. I think II was wrong 70
feel that everything was over. II
I get on and do well, he would
have been proud Of me, Chummy.'
II sounded somewhat involved,
but the sentiments were uni
peachable: only 1t was all so un-
like ~Judy-this serious little person
In black. with implanted cheeks
and eyes that appeared TO be study
ing the problems OF life.
"Of course, my career IS done
for" Judy went on. Il don't sup
pose I shall ever be a great dancer
not famous like Flomena. You
want what dear M. Guarvenius de-
scribed as the right atmosphere and
surroundings. ] shah never have
