Comfort personified is the key

in furniture displayed by the 7 ".
Hardware company at its fall home

There is a return to elegance in
all home, furnishings from glassware
to table lamps, but in the in between
stages, it is comfort plus elegance.

is that the belached maple isn't

"Niklas will set you up hand

The thought Of a place Of her.

the distinguished Guy Halstead-
Flagg might see her as she really
was, devoid of stacy costumes, the
spotlight, the crowd. i
She might even cook him little
dinner. Gone was her dislike Of
him. She told herself he was a
real friend. Perhaps even more
than a friend; who knew? Her
heart rose on the thought.
Her own setting! The friend
ship would progress far quicker.
That night he had come to the
club alone. He often came alone
now, and stayed late.
Was she the magnet?-Toni
wondered.
Niklas now permitted her to sit,
between performances, at a tiny
table against the wall. Only the
favored enjoyed the privilege Of
sitting with her, talking to her. To
her table Niklas brought the most
influential Of his customers, the
richest and most charming men.
Guy Halstead-Flagg was, to her
mind, the outstanding one.
They would talk on a wide vari.
ETY. of subjects. He was well-in-
formed, a delightful companion.

him so. She rose.
He thought, reluctantly, that
not even Marie Antoinette had
greater dignity. Just so would she
dismiss a courtier who had over
stepped the bounds. He was about
to apologize when he was aware

me to Madame Ia Marquise?"
With a sense Of relief, almost

Only bright friendliness.
They shook hands.

"Nicky, we could have Stung 'em
for two hundred bucks and they'd
have fallen for it, hook, line, and
sinker," regretted the astute Lou
Steiner.
II don't need the money"
Niklas bit the words off short.
Not even to his press agent would
he reveal the manifold sources Of
his income.
"She's a riot, Nicky, that girl"
"She is an aristocrat. It is no
lie. But you must think up new
things for her. Lou. A minuet, for

"she needs no partner. She
must star alone"
True" Niklas rubbed his
hands together, as was his custom
when well pleased.
II am thinking of removing her
from the quiet MOTEL at Riverdale,
and setting her up in her own

The press agent stared piercing

He trusted few people, did Lou
Steiner, and least Of all, the clever
Niklas.
So? A rendezvous? The wind
lay in that quarter, did it?
