"I cannot see why I am Invited. It is simply because the Princess knew that I shared a room with Frances." "The Princess parties down at Chelsea are quite famous In their way," Paul confided. "It was through your friend, Miss Brown, that your Invitation came?" "Entirely," she assured him. "Then I -would not deprive myself of the pleasure ot going," he decided.

He took his leave after a final word or two with Frances, who had relapsed during the last few mo ments Into a puzzled silence. As soon as he was gone, she leaned across the table. "Edith, she declared. I suspect you of leading a double life. What does it all mean?" "Why, your asking this young man about the Strepaffs, your consulting with him as to whether you shall go. You told him that you were asked because I was asked as my companion. Now I come to think of it, I don't believe that is the truth." "Not the truth!"

" prepare you special coffee." ' Miss Brown glanced around the room. "And please have yours with us," she begged. "There are so few people left." He accepted her Invitation with a grateful little bow and sat at the end of the table. "Can you tell me, please." Miss Brown Inquired, "whether you knew anything about the Princess Strepaff and her husband?" "One knows who they are. of course," the young man replied, after a moment's hesitation. "They are tike the rest of us, only they are . fortunate. The Princess saved her jewels and they both have gifts." "They belong to your society," Miss Drown ventured to ask. , Paul seemed for a moment embarrassed. "As a matter of fact," he admitted, "thev do not. Among some ; of us my father for one there has aiierwara ior Dotn or us! Tne last word I had with her was to be sure to bring Miss Brown.' Edith, you're an uncommunicative little pig. I knew something had happened. Miss Brown considered for several moments' in perplexed silence. It was Frances, however, who relieved the situation. She crushed out the remains of her cigarette upon the plate and rose to her feet. "Let's go," she suggested. "Thank heavens curiosity Is the only woman's vice I dont possess." At the Ball The party was in full swing when the two girls arrived. Miss Brown, who was inclined to be shy, saw with a sinking heart rows upon rows of coats and hats and cloaks in the hastily extemporized cloak room. "What a crowd, Frances!" she murmured. "All the better." was -the consoling reminder. "No one will notice us." There was a studio on the right from which Issued the sound of a jazz band and the shuffling of feet. From the rooms on the left came the clamor of many voices.

Half way to an anteroom, however where drinks wer being dispensed, they came face to face with the Princess.

He seemed to have disappeared altogether, however. The Princess had seen to that. "I am afraid." Miss Brown's new. companion said, "that t am going to be a great bore to you, ypunrh lady. I am going to ask you to give me not two mlnutes-of-you time, but a solid quarter of an hour. After alL you know, It is only half-past 11, and this party will go on until 6 in the morning. "I am very pleased to give you as much of my time as you wish." Miss Brown replied with her usual politeness. "I know no one here. Only I'm a little sorry that you do not dance. You see.
