dusk, he wondered if he had been wise. Why hadn't he asked her to marry him? Then he could look after her as he couldn't now. But reason told him that was why she would not have consented. For the present Aileen's pride was greater than any possible love she might have for him. And he was not by any means sure that her feeling for him was love. Not in the sense that he dreamed of it-as he ached for her.
 A brownstone stoop with an iron gate beneath, lured him into an areaway and he paused there to push a button. Jimmy felt he could do with a drink. Going up the in- ner stair, he passed into the speak easy and to the bar at the far end.
 Jimmy ordered an old-fashioned. He glanced at the mirror behind the man who was preparing the mixture and gave his tie twist. Another reflection in the glass att tracted his attention. He caught a glimpse of profile that must be Vivienne's. As she moved trifle, lhe saw that it was, and in that moment he recognized the man who sat opposite her. It was Ar mold Kronberg.

Chapter IS A NEW CHANGE

Even when she was alone, AlleSIl wore the domino. It prevented chance glimpses of her face as she went about the apartment.
 New the mask was buried in her arms as she leaned against the table and sobbed convulsively. How much better it would have been if her accident had caused fatal injury. And yet, it occurred to her instantly, that result might have driven Vivienne to lengths which it made her shudder even to contem- plate
 Vivienne had been nervous jumpy and disagreeable-all of the previous evening. Aileen really couldn't blame her Viy had ex- plained that she was through with her work for Charming. She had not gone into any details, and be- cause she seemed moro9e, Aileen re- trained from questions.
 At breakfast, vivienne toyed with her food. There was hard look in her eyes-a glint that was new to Aileen. Aileen wondered whether she was concealing something from her. While Vivienne slipped her coffee, Aileen cautiously gave her several openings. No confidence had resulted. Viv's replies had been monosyllabic.
 She dressed with particular care and put on too much makeup. When Aileen had suggested this her sister flew into tantrum. She'd gone off on her rounds of the stu dios without even saying good bye.
 Deeply as that had hurt Aileen, her reaction was not bitter-not to- ward Viyienne anyway. She realized that on Vivienne's incompetent shoulders this new responsibility rested like yoke.
 Aileen removed the mask and wiped the tears from her eyes. h. stantly she replaced it-as though she had been guilty of an indiscre- ton. She loathed herself without it. With an effort she set to work again Jimmy would come at two and she was making him a cake
 Now, because she wished to con- ceal her mood, Aileen slipped into 9 fetching suit of satin lounge pa jamas. Just a touch of lipstick would serve to hide the droop o1 the corners of her mouth. Jimmy must not see that Without exactly knowing why, Aileen grew elated.
 When Jimmy arrived he hae brought some of the latest records and proceeded to try them out or her photograph.
 "Say! He bit into the chocolate cake. You'd make fortune if yol told the world this particular recipe Just the same, I guess no one elss could make cake like you"
 She liked praise of that sort iron Jimmy. It was one thing that mad' him different from other men sh' knew. They would comment on he dancing-her voice, her legs-he features.

 DO you think I'd ever sing that song-that any money would tempt me?"
 He had touched her on the raw It was almost as though he could see through her mask-as though she was showing him that her scars were deeper than her flesh. Jimmy had meant to cut her, but he felt like a cad. His only con- solation was that he acted as he thought best-and this was no time to draw back.
 There are plenty ot other songs. The point is that my suggestion might make you independent. You could keep this place without wor- ry-about yourself-or Vivienne. That would give her the chance to strike out for herself-without be- ing hampered by having" Don't" she begged. There was long silence. Then, Since you feel that I ought to-I'll try. Will you-arrange an appointment?"
 "As soon as I can," he said. But even then he felt little joy. i If her voice-test happened to fail, or her records did not sell, what he had done would be far worse than if he had kept silent.

 Aileen went to the piano. As Jimmy ran through song after song she found herself singing the choruses experimentally. For nearly ar hour she lost herself and Jimmy kept on playing until he felt she would over-do If he did not stop.
