her supeilor attitude and could not Im
agine why In the world sho adopted It
The somewhat throaty soprano fin

as though to placate the bored peoplo
who had listened through the cabaret

"Lomo on." said Isabel, starting up,

was Instantly on his feet guiding Isabel
through the maze of dancers that bad
sprung up as thought by magic everj--w
here.
Isabel was at her best dancing. She
was lithe almost to thinness and ultra

sipping hers.
"Shall we dance?" Scott queried.
"Let's watch them." Ituth returned
and followed Isabel with her ejes about
the room. 'When sho looked toward
Scott again he, too, was watching Isabel.
A qtcrr llttlo Inexplicable- feeling went
through Ituth as sho noticed this. There
seemed to be a look almost of absorp
tion in Scott's ejes.
"Isabel's a goud dancer, Isn't sho?"
she observed nfter sho had watched Scott
for a minute or two,
"Wonderful, I never knew she danced
so well."
"Well, of course, she dances will with
Hill," Kuth said dryly. "Their steps
match beautifully, and there's a. lot In
dancing w Ith anj- one you're accustomed
to." This was one of the uuecr one
sided compliments that one woman Is
apt to glvo another. Thero was, of
course the implication that with nny one
else, although Isabel danced well, she
would not dance so ptrfectlj-.
Scott said nothing, and then the music
slopped and Isabel, still calm nnd un
flurrled, followed by Hill, ttturned to the
table
"The music Is reallv very good," she
remarked In her unenthuslastlo m.uinir.
Sho did not seem to bo (lushid nor luf
fied nt alt by tho dance. Ituth alwajs
marveled at Isabel's nbsoluto calm.
"Will jou have the next dance with
me?" Scott asked suddenly.
"Of course," Isabel teturned, as
though It weie a matter of course, and
Ituth flamed Inwatdlj. Why should
Scott ask Isabel to dance before bo had
darned with his wife? Uf courso It was
all light to exchangi) later, but at least
he might have asked her to dance first.
Ituth baldly heard the ttnor who sang
a ballad very touihlngly, so angry was
she at Scott's attitude Shu hardly
heard the comic antics of the couple
that follow isl him. She was waiting

Tho orchestra struck up a one-step)
and sho watched Scott step across and
laughingly claim Isabel for tho dance.
Then she realized that Bill was asking
her to dance, nnd sho rose obediently
and swung Into tho step. Round and
tound tho room thej swept, Kuth's eyes
nlwaj-s following Isabel and Scott. Sho
saw Isabel look up at Scott as she
danced; sho was talking qulto anl-matedlj-
about something and Scott was
laughing. Thej danced beautifully to
gether. In a dream Ituth followed the
steps with 13111; she mado no attempt
to entertain him beyond answering his
few remarks with monosyllables.
Then at last tho dance was over and
they were bnck at tho table. Over her
claret lemonade Ituth watched Scott
cross tho floor with Isabel. He smiled
Into Kuth's ej'cs as ho sat down next to
her, but Ituth did not smilo back. She
looked past him stonily and answered
Isabel'!! questions woodenl".
This tlmo thero was no cabaret be

Ituth loved best ot all. Scott leaned
across to her.
"Shall we dance?" he asked,
"Whj- don't jou and Isabel danca
this?" Ituth returniil qulcklj'. "Vou
look so well together."
Scott looked nt her surprised and
hurt. All of his boyishness looked out ,
of his ejes. If Ituth had not been so
