13 Member of a secret society. 1913 the lights In theqi, gazed dreamily at the glittering fountain spray. The point is to have something no one can take away. Something like your name, he continued turning to her. "Faith what a beautiful name Faith.

Lovers and artists have it. And Inventors, he added with a shy smile. Just believing In what ones doing. Putting ones best in it, you know. And well, I dont suppose an airplane motor will ever startle the world, but if I contribute something to aviation, to the safety and speed of planes, Ill be a part of progress, you see, and thats worth while.

You do believe then that things are worth while, Faith mused, thinking with a little pang oft Hunter who didnt believe in anything. The war had done that to him, so he said. Her mind flew back to the terrace of his penthouse that day when they had talked. There was nothing eternal except death, he had said Paul leaned over to -touch her hand very gently. Why are you so sad? he asked as directly, as a child.

Faiths lovely smile flashed from her lips to her gray eyes. Because I can't have what I want, of course, she said, But it wasnt only that; it was the waiting. There was nothing more In the papers, and no sign from Hunter. Even if his Influence had been powerful enough to hush further speculation, he must realize her position. Suppose reporters over here traced her down! What should she say.

or do! She couldn't deny she was Mrs Hunter Barclay. To escape her worried thoughts, Faith turned gratefully to Mary Allan and Paul. Mary had started painting her portrait. Paul took her to museums, to hear music, to forests where kinge had hunted, and chateaus where queens had reigned. He took her to great cathedrals of dusk and incense, to small, bright restaurants on the river Seine where simple people ate fried fish and drank red wind, He brought the past In history and art to prance and pace In living colors through the shifting scenes cf Paris.

Faith was dazzled, little bewildered by it all. But as she absorbed new impressions, new ideas, she felt she was catching up with Hunter, who had been everywhere and seen everything. And the ache and longing for him stabbed through her At the end of the week, Mary Allan gave a party. A friend of hers, Ricardo del Guarrez, was to sing. Faith never forgot that The studio massed with flowers.

The long windows open on a warm June sky. The men and women gathered there, speaking every language, dressed in every kind of costume old sweaters, Russian blouses and sashes, tailored suits, evening gowns. They sat on cushions around the piano, they were clustered on the couch, draped along the narrow balcony railing. The deep, rich voice of del Guarrez filled the air with passion. Faith sat by the window In a carved, straight-backed chair.

Paul, on a cushion at her feet, whispered adoringly that she looked like a lovely enchanted 'princess, and that he had fallen in love with her. There Was an April frailty to the ashen tones of her hair misting about the pure oval of her face, the wide grey green of her eyes, her dim young: body in white satin. Her lips parted as she listened to the music. 1 She didnt belong here, elthei. Faith was thinking with a kind of despair.

These people, even Mary and Paul, were interested -in things of which the knew nothing. 'Their lives were full without her. Next week she must find a place for herself somewhere or else sail back to what? Gertrude Stevens' hostile dark eyes seemed to challenge across space. Gertrudes low, bitter voice saying: Youll never have him. Gertrude, with her great position, her wealth, her beauty, Reaching out-her long, jewelled hand to take what ahe wanted.

And It would ave to be a man like Hunter Dei Guarrez sang of lovs and red a little as ahe followed Mary Allan up five steep flights of stairs in the damp sour old house. New York, Paris, wherever it was, poverty smelt the same! And fear cut sharply into Faith again as she shifted the flowers In her arms so that their fragrance blotted out the reek of cheap cooking in the halls. She could never go back to anything like this, she thought, not even to Miss Primes flower shop. The smooth feel of wealth had touched her beauty, had inclosed her with a sense of security. Then Paul Tuckerman opened the door.

In the thadeless glare of a large garret. Faith saw two things the colored blob of a red geranium plant on the window sill, and a slender figure in frayed brown corduroys with red hair tossed back from a thin eager face. He was like a flame, she thought, as he fairly swept them in with the boyish delight of his greeting. It Beemed like no time at all before they were merrily drinking tea from saucerless red and white polka dotted cups. The flowers Faith had brought glowed In cracked goblets and old jars.

On the peeling white walls hung drawings of pumps and cylinders at which she stared with And on a crude bench in a corner stood a small model of his airplane motor. With Spring pressing in through open windows, and the young mania brown eyes upon her, the disturbing consciousness of poverty passed from Faith. Pauls eyes were hazel, quickened by the red of his unruiy hair, as if lights from it were reflected in the clear pupils. His long thin nosa was palpitant with life, his lips carefree. And now he was looking at Faith with a fierce sort of rapture, I didnt know there was anyone so beautiful, he said to Mary Allan.

Faith couldnt resent his open admiration. It somehow eased the dragging undertow of fear that ran through everything she said and did this day. Cant I see her again soon? Paul appealed to Mary Allan as they were leaving. Id love to. Faith answered for herself, surprised at her instant response to this young man.

But uncertainty crushed down upon her again through the long hours of the night. She tossed on the couch in the studio, staring out. at the unfamiliar shapes the old roof lines, the distant dome against the paling stars. She was glad and afraid of what happened. Hunters wife the mystery girl.

His brooding blue eyes, the intense blue of them under the sweeping tblack of his brows, seemed to burn through her In the quiet dawn. Nothing was left but her longing for him. my dear, I want you so! she said aloud. Ill go mad if I dont hear from you aoon. But there was no word the next day or the next.

And it was a relief when Paul Tuckerman came to see her. He took her to the Luxembourg Gardens where children romped around fountains, students and lovers strolled under the chestnut trees, and old men played croquet In the Here, a hatless young man, In. ah open throated shirt and baggy trousers, was not And here, on a brown earth plateau among old statues, to the frail tunes of a merry-go-round. Faith found herself talking earnestly of life to Paul. They leaned against a balustrade next to the wide stone steps leading to the lower garden with Its gay flower beds, its round basin with the plumed fountain, the French Senate house on their left, the eun glinting on Pauls red hair.

I suppose Im greedy. I want so much, Faith said, watching little boys sail their boats In the basin below. You should have everything, Paul was Very emphatic, Faith sadly shook her head. If all thla wretched publicity hadnt come up; If they had only let her and Hunter alone! It Isnt as easy as all that, she said, half to herself. You get something you want more than anything in all the world, and then everyone tries to take It away from you.

GLOBE WANTS READ THEM TODAY RUTLEDGE publicity, was the last thing Hunter had bargained for, and It would create havoc in his life. Mary Allan refused to be concerned at the idea that Hunters chivalry had turned against him like a boomerang. She insisted that Faith go with her that afternoon to the trust company to find out whether her first months of $1000 had been deposited.

I dont want a penny of his, Faith declared. But there was a certain satisfaction in discovering the money waiting as Hunter had promised. It makes me feel as If the last thread hadnt snapped between us, she told her friend. Miss Allan laughed. Perhaps the announcement la a cat out of a lucky bag, she said.

Stop worrying, child. Im taking you to tea with one of the dearest boys In the world a genius. It's the one way I know of bringing him things without offending him. Hes frightfully poor. And that was how Faith met Paul Tuckerman.

She and Mary did their shopping first in Montparnasse, one; of the artist quarters of Paris. They bought tea, cream, sugar, and an array, of the delicious tarts and eclairs for which French pastry shops are famous. It was Faith who suggested flowers bunches and bunches of moss roses she picked up in one of the bright little carts along tbe Boulevard Montparnasse. Hearing about Paul had made her forget her own troubles. Paul Tuckerman was a young Inventor, Mary Allan informed her.

All hla life he bad wanted to go abroad, so when he inherited a bit of I money from an aunt, he had come to Paris. The money hadnt lasted long, and now he was stranded with hia invention an airplane motor near completion, and no means of putting it on the market. "Paul has, never grown up, Miss Allan said to Faith as their taxi wriggled In and out of the narrow shabby streets off the Place Denfert Roche-reau, fringing the gayer artist quarter. I don't think geniuses ever do grow up. The taxi stopped before a dingy door.

Here was poverty that Faith could understand, and from which, instinctively, she drank with the memory of her own pinched childhood. She shivered By MARYSE WITH SPRING PRESSING IN THRU OPEN WINDOWS AND THE YOUNG -MAN BROWN EYES UPON HER. SYNOPSIS To save Mrs Philip Stevens, a society woman, from the jealous rape of her husband. Hunter 4 Barclay, handsome you nit millionaire, has been lorced to marry Faith Martin, beautiful itirl whom he met in a flower shop where she worked.

But Faith implores him for the protection of his name, until an ugly Greenwich Village scandal, which she has innocently been involved in. blows, over. Hunter chivalrously consents, and sends Faith to Paris. For Faith, it is a fairy tale come true. She is surrounded by a sense of wealth and luxury, married to a man she is in love with, although be is not in love with her.

Her first morrung in Paris she reads i. In a newspaper the announcement of marriage to Hunter. The papers call her the Mystery Girl. CHAPTER XIII Hunter Arrives In Tarts WHEN Faith stumbled back into tbe friendly shelter of the atudio, Mary Allan listened quietly to her broken story. Faith kept nothing back.

The newspaper with its brief announcement of Hunter Barclays mar-rlagsi to a mystery girl, lay on the rug near the couch where Faith had flung herself. Miss 'Allans wise eyesv strayed to the headlines as she stroked Faiths feverish head, her cool finger tips smoothing the girls soft, bright hair. I dont know how It got out, Faith moaned. But hell blame me." It wasnt your -fault, Miss Allan comforted. And dont worry, they arent tying Hunter "Barclays wife up to that poor girls death.

See theyve even got your name wrong. She picked up the paper. 'Morton -Instead of Martin. They dont know Mr Barclay couldnt be reached at his apartment. Anyway she added practically, There's nothing you can do about It.
