She â€"introduced ‘a sunning couple whom she explained, were originally from . Boston but hadâ€"resided: long enough in Paris to "live it down." ~"Mrs, DeWight iwas prematurely gray, the sort of snowy grayness caused by a terrific and sudden shock. Her faultless coiffure framed a young and interestingly pretty face. ~ She was gowned in tones of ameâ€" thyst with earrings and other precâ€" ious stones to match her costumes,. Mr. DeWight, ‘a typical cosmopolite, was bending low over my hand. ‘ "Andâ€" thisâ€"this is Barrington Pierce." 7 In the flickering light of the open doorway, Iâ€"looked up to greet the newcomer and as his gaze met mine I found myself stumbling . over the polite sentence I had mechanically framed. As his hand met ming, in a firm handclasp, I merely smiled. I think the reason for my sudden embarassment was that I was conâ€" scious of looking into the face of a man whose features and expression were of such unearthly: beauty that they were almast Byronesque.. _ : *~"He‘s \marvelous,"_ whispered â€"Ellie, walking by. my side, "you know he‘s just thirty and is already headed toâ€" wards‘ international fame." : "American?" I asked. _ s "Yes, at one time, but he‘s lived on the continent so longâ€"that is, Mr. DeWight ordered wine. ©But when it was served, Barrington Pierce gilently pushed his glass aside. for ten yearsâ€"that he has absorbed a lot of foreign poise.

We bhad reached Ciro‘s and found a table in the smart supper room where romances, tragedies, adâ€" ventures, bold robberies and: even suicides are ‘concocted, over its famâ€" ous hors d‘ouvres. $ "One could:tell you were not reâ€" cently from the states."

"Some friends of mine were sayâ€" ing the other day in Paris that if I should return to the states that it would be impossible for me to go out and not take a lot to drink. That‘s absurd," Mr. Pierce affirmed, "I don‘t here where one can have fine cognac and wineâ€"then why should I where I am told favorite cocktail is made of orange and alcohol." .: . / "But ’youi;vould, Barry, mon cher," Ellie laughingy replied "because if you went parties over there and ordered they‘d say you were a sad bird and never ask you again."

One of the arts perhaps.. I was consumed with curioâ€" sity. I wanted to ask more about this extraordinarily handsome youth with his clear, olive complexion anmnd quiet, unassuming air. t ce I gave him a swift glance. Ellie evidently saw approval iny my eyes out loud. "Shall we dance?*" he asked, sudâ€" denly ‘raising his eyes and meeting my gaze. I hesitated for a moment â€"‘Curtiss and I bhad a sort of unâ€" written agreement that we should alâ€" ways dance the first time together when out at a supper or dance. But there was a strange, unfathâ€" omable command in the dark, luminâ€" ous eyes of the man at my side. Why shouldn‘t I tease Curtiss a litâ€" tle? â€"He had been most negligent about complimenting my gown and I remembered my little threat that I would make him jealous before the night at Monte Carlo had gone.
