When she, saw "Tierself tefor her
mirror now In th Paris gown aha re
coiled In red horror. A tide of blood
swept under her entire kln. Her
bosom wa bared In a great moony
weep, there were no strap at all
across th houlder. and her back
wa revealed to tha waist. th bad
never known how beautiful It wne un
til h utood before her mirror and
looked slantwise aero her houider
st th en my charm of tht gently
rllplmg plane.
Pit rose lo the challenge of op
portunity and clothed herarlf In auda
city. Tha consciousness of her
beauty gave a lilt of bravado to her
cin.age, Hhe v. a happy In herself,
and silmeeu h old modest! with
pious thought that th Lord naver

The unsuspecting Ned Ling cam to
dinner and never dreamed that Mem
wa there to Play th Lorelei. She
shuddered at her own coiuety, but It
wss art for art's sake and In Heaven's
nuntt belda.
fche met the comedian with a mixed
attltud of hoinag and of aalX-
confidence, frihe. made him proUd and
h made hint happy. 13et of all
h put him at hi beat. He aald
witty things, and her laughter wss a
final allurement.
After the dinner they sank Into big
chair in th Hermondr living room
to watch the new picture. From
tnbl behind them a little domestic
projection innnhln ent a con of
light acrux their head to a small
I'urtiiJti. And there a Lilliputian twin
of Mom wept and fought and won
through a tiny drama.
Krfm the dark, the happy gloom
Na Ling kept crying out his en
ihualasm for Mem' kklll. H was
frank enough In criticism of the pic
t ire hs n structure. He groaned at
the comic it lief and he shouted In
ridicule of the hackneyed situation
rirrrnond echoed his praise and his
censure. The picture was not a lier-
nmnd Creation, but Mem was.
In an Interlude during a change of
reels Ned Ling sahl, with all the
earnestness of an earnest clown: "I
love your tears, Mis fHeddon! they
make ma weep, fiee how wet my
eye are!"
He leaned clone and made her look
Into hi melancholy orb. Their mel
ancholy was their fortune, for In his
pictures he never smiled eicept when
ne was in a plight or comic despair,
"I love to weep," he went on, shame
leesly. "Last Christmas How do

just wallowed In self-pity. I sat for
an hour before a mirror and watched
the tears pour down my cheeks. And
when they fell into my sobbing
mouth I drank them, and loved them
because they were so bitter. It was
the happiest Christmas I ever spent

ill you come7 . .
I II be there," said Mem, half with
pity and half with -mockery.
Thereupon, as the lights went out
strain, ha laid hi hand on hers where
It rested on the arm of her chair.
When she moved It he clutched it
eagerly and whispered, "Oh, please!"
and clung to it like a lonely child.
He laughed aloud at the wonderful
battle Tom Holby put up, but he
cheered Mem' every scene as she
dushed through the storm.
"How brave! How beautiful you
are! ' he murmured, leaning close. She
whispered to him the tale of how
near she was-to death In th scene
when she thrust her way through the
tree.
And now he clung to her with both
hands as If he would save her thus be
latedly from danger.
'I wa very near death In my last
picture." he said. "I was supposed
to sit down Innocently on a plumber's
torch. I had on asbestos trousers, but
somehow my coat tails caught Are and
I should have burned to death if Miss
Clav hadn't thrown a rug around me.
Awfully nice girl. I c6uld have gone
on loving her, but she kept talking
about marriage and I was ufraid she'd
get me to the altar some day. God
knows I'm afraid of marriage. Aren't
you? It sickened me when I heard
the audience scream with laughter at
the scene. We kept It- In as it was
oud gave It a funny title. It had just
the touch of obscenity that everybody
loves. "Too bad we Americans make
fruch a bane of obscenity! A little
wholesome smut never hurt any
body." When the picture was finished he
told Bermond what a genius he had In
Miss Steddon and said he wished he
had her himself. Bermond adroitly
and coquettlnhly forced the card on his
hand, and before Ned Ling quite knew
it It had been arranged that Mem
Khould be lent to him at a figure far
above her Bermond salary.
"I stuck him for tha extra money,"
Iiermoml laughed afterward, "but I
love to nvik Ned Ling pay. H hurt
him o. I'll split th bonus with you,
my dear."
CHAPTER L.
Tom Holby called on Mem th fol

a face. o longing a manner, that she
hud not th heart to tell htm at one
