IT is hard to get a look at the
l. real personality of Marie An
toinette. The revolutionistS called
her a compendium Of all the vices,
and the royalistS, after the Bour-
bon restoration. saw her as a saint
who could do no wrong; and for
most of us she is a cardboard figure,
bright, tinSeled-and unreal
Stefan Zweig brings her to life in
'NIarie Antoinette: the Portrait of
an Average Woman" and it is his
subtitle that gives the key to her
character.
She was, he SAYS. an average
woman-and that was her tragedy.
Fate put her in a place where she
had to be a great ruler. a second
Maria Theresa, and the job was be-
yond her.
She had the faults Of the average
woman, and in her position those
venial faults became high crimes.
, Not until she was lodged in the Con-
ciergerie, awaiting the guillotine. did
her real greatness awaken; and then
it was too late.
Mr.. Zweig absolves her from the
calumnies of the revolutioniSts. She
was woefully indiscreet. frequently
rather silly, he says, but never loose
or depraved.
o But he insists that the royaliSts
are equally wrong in their appraisal
of her; she had one lover, the
Swedish count. FerSen, and she gave
him the love and passion that Louis
XVI could not arouse in her.
And FerSen served her at the risk
of his neck, and their love affair is
one of the great romances of history.

monty fine biography The April
choice of the Book of the Month
Club. it is published by Viking for

CHAPTER THREE
INSTANTLY Sandra took charge

INSTANTLY Sandra took charge
L of the situation.
Reluctantly, Monica admitted to
herself the older girls charm. San
dra was pretty bossy with both of
the men-with Charles Eustace
whom she addressed formally, and
with Dan, whose first name, of
course, she employed.
Fancy finding you two here" San
ORA drawled, pulling off her white
gloves and settling herself in a chair
opposite Monnie and next to Dan.
Her long-lashed gray eyes flickered
an instant over Monies simple
frock.
For the briefest possible moment,
Monnie had the sensation that San
dra was coolly disliking her. Nom
sense! Sandra had been q good
friend to her all this last year, had
gone to some trouble, actually, to
be nice to her.
I'm imagiing things" Monnie
decided, giving herself mental
shake.
None the less, it CALLED her to
find that Sandra was calmly an
nexing Dan and that he was per-
hitting it: The color famed in
Monnies face.
Sandra was talking to Dan in a
low, intimate tone, not to be heard
above the orchestra's bleat. Mon
ME turned to find Charles EuStace's
gaze full upon her. He asked, Care
to dance?"
She rose, and, with the barest
word to the others, slipped into his
arms. How tall the man was! And
what enormous shoulders he had!
He seemed actually to dwarf Dan,
who had always. heretofore, seemed
Apollo-like in his proportions.
She was grateful to him. He
danced easily and well and Mon
MES small slippered feet followed
his steps smoothly. Once he spoke.
Sorry I don't do these new
stunts" She glanced up at him to
find he was smiling and indicating
the performance of two or three
young couples dancing absorbedly
in the center of the floor Cheek
to cheek, brow to brow, they re-
volved to the music.
Now and then they would break
apart and, with arms about each
others neckS, walk forward slowly
wearing the rapt expressions OF
sleep walkers.

CHAPTER TWO Continued
THE look Dan bestowed upon
her was battling in its hidden
lality.
He said easily, Not unless your
sother sends me. Or wouldn't you
Ike to go for a ride? Just out to
bin Creek road and back"
Unaccountably, the girls heart
ightened. What did it matter, after
all, whether Dan fbbed to her
about the time of his arrival? He
WAS here, just as she had dreamed.
THAT was all that counted.
I'll dash upstairs a minute and
fix my hair" she murmured con-
fusedly, and vanished.
As she traced the outline Of her
mouth with a little raspberry col
ored stick and powdered her nose,
Monnie could hear the rumble Of
Dams voice, talking to her mother.
Her despair of half an hour ago
had lifted She felt cheered. Any
thing might happen. Anything
could. Was she fool to stake so
much on her hopes Of Dan?
Why couldn't she care for Sam
MerriWeather or any Of the others
who dropped into the drug store,
eager for a brief chat with her?
Why had she fastened her affec-
tions on any one so far above her
as Dan Cardigan?
Well, she had done it and it was
too late now to go back coldly over
the progress of her feeling for Dan.
Love was like a prairie fire. Once
lighted, it swept on madly, needless
of what it destroyed.
Good girl. That didn't take
long" Dan approved, smiling down
at her.
Don't be late, dear" her mother
warned.
Now he was helping her into the
loW-slung car. The door slammed
The motor purred.
"Cold?" Dan was looking down at
her as they flew along. She shook
her head and laughed.
"Of course not. It's a beautiful
night. Just like summer" She felt
happy now as she always did when
she was alone with Dan.
They talked a little-desultory
talk. Dan drove fast. In the flash
ing lights before they reached the
edge of town; Monica could see his
handsome profile.
How splendid he was! What did
1t matter if he had been driving
with Sandra that afternoon and had
not told her about it?
L thought we'd drop in at the
Cabin for a bit and dance" Dan
announced casually.
Monica felt a mOmentary flash Of
disappointment. OF course, it would
. be lovely to dance with Dan. Just
to be seen with him was a matter
for pride But it was grand, too,
being alone together. However she
said lightly, THAT would be fun
She stifled her conscience. Mother
