"I wouldn't tell you, Doctor Ace," Sylvia asserted firmly, "for don't you see it would be very naughty indeed." "You wouldn't tell me!" Ace repeated in mock despair. "No," Sylvia declared, "it wouldn't be right. It would spoil everything." "Then, I'm very glad you're not going," Ace said with a convincing appearance of being hurt. "You'd spoil my whole evening for me." At this Sylvia's suppressed secret almbst burst its way out. "Anyway, Sylvia," Ace concluded, "as long as you're not going to .he masquerade, will you promise to save me the very first dance of the very first dance you do go to?"

I remember reading somewhere that prestidigitators dread, more than any other, an audience of children, because they are at the same time less suggestible and more suggestible than adults.- In other words, the quickness of movement, which deceives the adult eye does not always seduce the childish eye. Flowing robes, strange headgear, darkened skins, wigs, masks were without avail to deceive Sylvia. It began almost immediately. "Mrs. Burton!" she whispered as a magnificent Elizabethen court lastiff distended skirt, stomdyin acher and ruff entered the room. Immediately I saw under this brocaded panoply the graceful swanlike gait of Leda Burton. When presently there passed an East Indian rajah in a flowing robe, a coiled, jeweled turban of golden tissue, a belt bristling with knives, "Mr. Burton," her little voice whispered. Presently appeared a great potentate I took him to be an Arabian. Before him, walking backward and wielding an enormous jade green feathered fan, fleshed fellow with sleek, straight locks and a tiny sleek mustache, his trousers and shirt of embroidered orange linen. "Who can they be?" I was helplessly thinking when Sylvia's whisper came in my ear, "Uncle Peter and BRISBANE If you are a friend to Nature you are a rich man, even in old age. Adolf Lor em.

People were pouring in now, but Sylvia's steady, accurate observation constantly clicked names to me. Of course she did not identify every mask. Unlike me, she did not know everybody in Satuit. And naturally there were some who were strangers to both of us for, as always, people brought house guests. But my intimates she recognized instantly. It was a fairly magical performance. The room had, of course, filled up. Between dances, people spilled out on the wide piazzas. The protective silence which had produced the vacuum of that first half hour had broken into laughter and talk. People were still disguising their voices however, as I, who was now on the inside of so many secrets, realized. I was enjoying myself immensely. Several strange masks asked me to dance, but I declined all invitations. I did not particularly want to dance. I did not want to leave Sylvia, and especially I wanted to enjoy the scene. I always take a particular delight at costume affairs in the of casual groupings. Three times during the evening of the Stow party, I saw groups which delighted me to the tingling point.

Once she said to me, "Oh, how I wish I had brought Dorind a Belle!" Fortunately, however, the right reassuring idea occurred to me. "Oh we couldn't have brought Belle," I declared in a shocked tone. "Don't you see, Sylvia, everybody would have known And then they Dorinda Belle. would have guessed who we are!" "That would be dreadful," Sylvia whispered. "Perfickly dreadful! But I'll tell Dorinda Belle all about it every word of it!" Just at this moment there came another entrance crash of the orchestra. There strode into the room a magnificent male figure, a Roman warrior of the period of Julius Caesar. He wore a short white military tunic, overlaid with long tabs of gilded leather; a golden helmet; golden 3hoes. At his belt, hung the short sword as became an officer, on the left side.

I recognized it. The first time Ace visited Rome, he had had a Roman short sword made for him. Doctor Ace stood on that ruffle of applause, calmly surveyed the room. His eyes stopped on Sylvia and me. The music started up. Instantly he came over to our corner, bowed before Sylvia. "May I have the pleasure of this dance, senorita?" he asked. Sylvia arose and stood before the gigantic Roman warrior; a thrilled, trembling little figure like a little silvery fountain which had burst through the floor.

Voltaire's learned Dr. Pangloss was wrong; it is not true that "all is for the best in the best possible of worlds."
