The waiter gone, Esther saw the Frenchwoman lean across to her companion with an obvious effort of self-control.

"Arthur tell me once more. What is it, this job you speak of?" "What the Argentine? I don't know. The Toda woman wants to take me out of there as a sort of manager or something.

Indeed, although she was plainly -dressed than most of the women present, she rejoiced to feel she did not suffer too much by comparison. Esther was never dowdy.

She was not ashamed of her well'tailored costume, marron in color which went well with her eyes and hair nor of her little new felt hat, purchased in Paris. Her small "choker" fur was of good stone marten, even her gloves and the handkerchief peeping from her pocket had the correct touch. Trifles, perhaps, but trifles that mattered. She made "good money," and she had always found it paid to dres3 well and carefully. Of course, shejsvould not be able to buy clothes on her salary from Dr.

Esther recalled that a man and woman had taken the table xn her right and a little behind her. She longed to look at them, but controlled her impulse, out of curiosity to hear more.

There was a sHence that seemed interminable. Then the woman spoke again, her voice vibrant, urgent. "You heard me! Why don't you answer? Why? Ah! My God, it is like beating against a stone waUl- you go away from me, At last a man's voice, low, cold, and a little sulky. "What do you want me to say, Therese?

your going?" "Good God, what else would it be? You don't imagine I'd choose to bury myself in a rotten hole like that, do you?" There was a long sigh, quavering with tears. "I know how fearfully difficult it all is, only, Arthur, why must you decide at once? Why not wait a bit?" "If I wait, I lose the job. That's why. I thought you understood. Besides, what is there to hang about here for?" "Well.

There's always a chance, isn't there?" An exclamation of contempt followed by the scratch of a match, then silence again, fraught, so Esther felt, with tension. Who, what were these people? She must try and steal a glance at them. Cautiously she turned her head, then finding both the occupants of the next table were look- rQ5 1 LJ If a ing the other way, she indulged in a good inspection. The woman claimed her attention first. Young a very young thirty-five, Esther decided.

Blonde with delicate transparency, and lovely; her natural beauty was accentuated by careful makeup and clothes so exquisite that they could be called "elegant" without a misuse of the word.

Against it gleamed a heavy strand of glistening pearls "real ones, too!" thought Esther. On one slender arm slid negligently half a dozen diamond bangles, on the hand which supported her chin an enormous square diamond Her skin, shadowed, by her little close, black hat, was dazzling, her eyes large, gray, flecked with gold, and shaded by long, dark lashes.

His hazel eyes, glancing aboutawith irritable restlessness, were curiously devoid of any depths, his mouth showed a mixture of weakness and obstinacy, devil-may-care courage, and lack of moral stamina. An after the product, no doubt, nervy and jumpy, frayed by stimulants and late hours, and yet, with all this, attractive. Yes, curiously attractive, thefe was no denying it. "Waiter where's that blasted waiter gone?" He turned in Esther's direction, and for an instant his eyes met hers and took her in, though with little show of interest. Seeing him full faced she suddenly recalled him! When she and Miss Ferriss had first arrived, they had seen him on two occasions lunching in the Carlton grill, in company with a swarthy, overdressed.
