They complained to him that the big hall had no pillars to support it, and despite Wrens assurances that it had been designed that way and was safe, demanded that supporting pillars be placed in position. Wren agreed to do so, and had four pillars erected. But some years later it was discovered that Me the pillars did not reach the ceilA General Quin ing, and there was a space big enough for a mans hand to pass between.

Edith always sits in the library on the other side of the hall, but Mmhrr and I had our coffee here, and I prefer to continue the old custom. Jane's eyes opened wide. "Dont you and your niece drink your coffee together? Usually, but there have been' thnea. he laughed as he said it when each of us has sat on opposite sides of the hall in lonely state. Jane laughed too. Baldy and I do things like that They finished their coffee and he moked a cigar. Edith and Hnidy telephoned that the thing was more serious than they had anticipated. That perhaps he had better send Briggs. ."So that means Pm going to have you to myself for an hour longer, Frederick told Jane. 1 hope you are as happy in the prospect as I am. I am having a Joyous time. I feel like Cinderella at the ball." He laughed at that "You're a refreshing child, Jane." He had never before called her by her first name. Am I? But I'm not a child. I'm as old as the hills. Not in years. In wisdom. I know how to make ends meet, and how to order meals, and how to plan my own dresses, and a lot of things that your Edith doesnt have to think about And yet you are happy. Til say I am. He laughed but did not continue the subject Tve a rather wonderful collection of earrings. Would you like to look at them? Queer fad, isn't it? But Tve picked them up everywhere. Why earrings? "Other things are commonplace brooches, necklaces, tiaras. But there's romance in the jewels that women have worn in their ears. You'll see. He went Into another room and brought back a tray. It was lined with velvet and the earrings were set up on tiny cushions. It was a unique display. Cameos from ancient Rome, acorns of human hair in the horrible taste of the sixties gypsy hoops of gold coral roses in delicate fretted wreaths old French jewels rubies, emeralds, sapphires, and seed pearls, larger pearls set alone to show their beauty, and a sparkling array of modem things, diamonds in platinum long pendants of jade and jet opals dripping like liquid fire along slender chains. She hung over them. he Which do you like best? asked. "The pearls? He was doubtful. "Not the white he picked up a pair ones. These of sapphires set in seed pearls rather barbaric things that hung down for an inch or more. Theyll suit your style. Have you ever worn earrings? EXTRA SMOKES PER PACK I "Try them. He helped her to adjust them and his hand touched her smooth warm cheek. He was conscious of her closeness, but gave no sign. There was a little mirror above the mantel. Look at yourself, he said. She tilted her head so that the jewels shook. The blue lights of the stones made her skin incandescent Frederick surveyed her critically. You ought to have a more sophisticated gown. Silver brocade with a wisp of a train. "It changes me, doesnt it? I am not sure that I like them. What a joy she was after Adelaide. As if the name had brought her, a voice spoke from the door. "T wouldn't let Waldron announce me, Ricky; may I come in?" She stopped as she saw Jane. Oh, you're not alone? This is Miss Barnes. Adelaide. I think you met her brother today at luncheon. Edith telephoned that you and Eloise had found her. That's what I came about to warn you. Eloise has the reporters on her trait She'll be over in minute. But the harm will be can done.

Setting reporters on Edith like a pack of wolves." I told her how you would feel, Adelaide reiterated. I should see her if I were you, Mr. Towne," said a crisp, voice. Adelaide turned with a gasp. With her slippered feet crossed in front f her, Jane looked like a child. For the first time Mrs. Laramore got a good view of those candid gray eyes. They had a queer effect on her. Eyes like that were most uncommon. Fearless. The girl was not afraid of Frederick. She was not afraid of anyone. "Why should I see her? Frederick demanded.

But none the less, Adelaide Laramore and her exotic ways were amusing. She had a brittle and artificial look, like the Manchu lady in the Museum, or something in wax. Jane was brought back from her meditation by the riotous entrance of Eloise and the two men. I knew Adelaide was telling teles. I told you I eras coming, Eloise. Eloise stared at Jane when Frederick presented her. You look like your brother. Twins? No." Jane decided that she liked Misa Harper better than she did Mrs. Laramore which wasn't say ing much . . .
