But as the gorgeous days of Spring slipped by. memory of Ger- .ld Bruton faded. In new scenes 11 a wonderful town where she was ?pt inordinately busy all day long nci at nights, when her job de¬ manded that she step out to smar; unctions and amusing night clubs nd shows, one had no t'-ic for ireoding on the past. Which was fortunate. But Youth clamored in the Springtime. Against her own voli- icn. Lu.,na knew she was falling n love . . . Did he love her in return? He gave no sign. Wasn't it likely that he had r rirl down South where he cam? rom? That he might even be pri ately engaged to her, for all shi .new about him? Or was beautiful Mrs. Joel Van lavecr beginning to fill his hori¬ zon with her alluring knowledge o! he world. her sophisticated se¬ ductiveness? As she stepped out cf the shoi hat evening and across the side- 'n!k cf Fifth Avenue to "Hand- ome" and his waiting car. the lirery was slid upon her. though he did not show it. "Handscinc" sprang forward, lis white teeth gieamed in hi: unburned face. Everything r.bou! '.im shone, from his snowy shirl rent with the gleaming pearl ir he center, to his hair that looked ike poiishcd lacquer and the glos- iy shine cf his tall silk hat. "I'm in luck. Beautiful. Now ¦/hither away?" "To the Spearhead Inn. please It's the Spring opening or some- hing. It'll be nice and cool there, anyway." He tucked Luana into his long ow-slung machine as though she vere a bit of Dresden china, and night break. He was a past mas¬ ter at "attentions". He tucked her diver brocaded wrap about her shoulders, drew a fur robe to her snces. and set upon them a big .vhite card-board box from the florist's. "What are they. 'Handsome'?" "Orchids. A'most as luscious- ooking as the gill that's going to //ear them." She said, smiling her thanks: .My gown's orchid." "I'm a magician," grinned Handsome", "I chose right." ( He pressed the starter of the car, ,ct in the clutch and they shot up the Avenue to Central Park. The lights of the great slcy- ;crapers blinked starrily at them as thoy sped through the trees. The soft airs of Spring fanned her cheeks and blew back a feathery itt'e curl or two. "Handsome" fit- ted his big back lower in the seat so that his shoulder came close against Luana's as he drove. "A night for love. Luana. You. tnd the moon, and the night." "Hew unoriginal, .Handsome'!" j They couldn't get round her now, these men with their blur- ley and shallow compliments! They sped across the Park to /Vest 7Jnd Street, and over to the, Hudson River. Cars were stream- ng up the Drive. To the left of them, ships rede at anchor, fas-1 cinating in the dusk, and lights gleamed across the water from the ?a dsn ties cn the Jersey side. A feeling cf case and luxury crept over the girl at "Hand-! some's" side. He didn't have to think of men- ey. He exuded money. How picas- ant it must be to be able lo buy almost anything one fancied! This long. low-slung car with its! chromium fittings and silver gad-1 gels was symbolic of the man. She stole r. quick side look at him. He had been well nicknamed "Handsome", though to her mind his face was not nearly so attrac- tivc as Jimmy Randolph's. Where Jimmy was clean-cut, there was a certain hint of pul'fi- ness in Ilandsome's good looks. He was groomed to the last degree, it's j true, but already there was a slight sagging under the chin that was ico full, and signs of dissipation around his sleepy black eyes. To seine girls, this evidence of | loo gay a life might have been at¬ tractive but, after her experience with Gerald Brutcn, it put Luana on her guard. "Eewarc the fleshpots cf Egypt!" she said to herself, half humorously, half serious. But there was no reason why she shouldn't tonight luxuriate in j "Handsome's" car, and orchids, and the gcod time he was willing and anxious to supply. < To Be Continued» \\ illio Sawypr Funeral At Beleross Phis P.
