RAPTURE BEYOND by KATHARINE NEWLIN BURT THIRD INSTALMENT Fresh from a French convent, Jocelyn Harlowe returns to New York to her socially-elect mother, a religious, ambitious woman. The girl is hurried into an engagement with the wealthy Felix Kent. Her father, Nick Sandal, surreptiously enters the girl's home one night. He tells her he used to call her Lynda Sandal. The girl is torn by her desire to see life in the raw and to become part of her mother's society. Her father studies her surroundings. Lynda visits her father in his gingy quarters. She finds four men playing cards when she arrives. One of them, Jock Ayleward, her father tells her, is like a son to him. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY It silenced Lynda on that theme. He chuckled wickedly at her heightening color and the lift of her chin. And that's that, he said delightedly. He put her himself into a taxicab, escorting her down through the house with its rumors of revelry and play. She fancied that from behind one of the closed doors of the ground floor she heard Jock Ayleward's voice, cold, angry and excited. It brought back upon hedgedly that light shiver of hear, of unhappiness and of regret. At the very beginning there was this especial difference between Lynda Sandal and Jocelyn Harlowe. Lynda was without question the more open and ardent of the two. Her eyes had burned upon Nick, his home, his life, his friends, with a golden flame of interest, of sympathy, of the will to understand. It was the gift which Marcella had refused and Felix Kent had not even decided to blow across her mind. "then I will never mary him, so help me God; not even to escape from . . . her!" To the terrible estrangement of this pronoun had Marcella driven her. Events shaped themselves rapidly to make her quest of the truth possible. Cousin Sara came an old woman with an ear trumpet, very active and very lame, who gafided about the city all day with a passionate enthusiasm for shopping, and went to bed at night exhausted by her own nervous activity. So, after Felix had been gone four days—and Jocelyn, rather anxiously recognized that she missed him—there came a night, Mary's night out; when Jocelyn drew from her old trunk the plaited skirt and the small dark jacket and the tamt-o-shanter and ran her fingers through her hair. This time she found her father in the outer room of his lodging, alone. He was doubled over a shabby desk and looked so queer, so almost gnomie over his papers, with his brilliant squinting eyes that Lynda had again that sick flash of repulsion. Perhaps he recognized it for he put both his dark distorted hands before his face an instant. She wished to draw the poor face he had hidden against her breast. He killed the impulse with laughter, genuine laughter that could not wound her though it mocked. "You wretched woman-thing," said Nick, his whole face gleaming with charm and with musculine rebellion, "get out, get away from me. I won't be mothered by you. Go on and rumage through my possessions. Eve. You may indulge your feminine curiosity at my expense but I'm blasted if I'll be the victim of your softness." Don't you know the Old Testament? "We were not allowed Bible," said Lynda, white 'Nick. Nick. I must be bawt want to be chastised. I wan afraid, as my mother is. A is—" And at that instant child know what it was in so disturbed, so alienated Nick had hastily finish had risen, was not locked door. The stealing rapidly. "Oh, that!" he threw hastily over his crooked never said you had to be That's just exactly the one mustn't be, my girl. The door was opened of quiet violence and Aylen lessly attired in evening or as sleek as a creen lover's the door and fing a fierce Sandal's shoulders. "There, you old belly do you say? Next time will card-handler." As he spoke he was his pockets great handful mone which he snook before and then tossed up in their feet fell about the room leaves. In this moment of mysterious to Lynda he had grim mask from his moo-winged face. Lynda saw youm ten years younger Kent, young enough to be Jock, you fool. Here's The mask snapped into ward turned it upon Nic startled grim fixation. He began to collect his earnin they must be, thought sort of earnings from his of the closed doors of the ground floor she heard Jock Ayleward's voice, cold, angry and excited. It brought back upon hed oddly that light shiver of hear, of unhappiness and of regret. At the very beginning there was this especial difference between Lynda Sandal and Jocelyn Harlowe. Lynda was without question the more open and ardent of the two. Her eyes had burned upon Nick, his home, his life, his friends, with a golden flame of interest, of sympathy, of the will to understand. It was the gift which Marcella had refused and Felix Kent had not even desired to evoke. One evening Felix questioned her. Heretofore Jocelyn had been the questioner. "Why," he asked her, "do you look so conventual tonight?" "Oh, said Jocelyn realizing that she must answer. You used to say I didn't look as I ought to; conventual, that is." "Tonight you do." "That's funny." Felix laughed a dry little laugh with secret meaning. "I wonder whether it isn't very funny." He went over to her, sat on the arm of her chair and bent above her capturing her in one strong arm. "Look, child. I have to be away from you for a fortnight presently." Her heart went plumging, whether for joy or sorrow she could not for the life of her have told. "When I come back don't you think we could shorten this engagement of ours a little? I'm getting weary of convent airs. I want—" and suddenly his face was dyed in deep hot color, "I want a wife." Marcella spoke as though she were reciting her volume. "I can se no reason for keeping you waiting much longer, Felix. I did say a four month's engagement but it seems allowed to enter. On Nicks dressing table there were on photographs, no nick-knacks; there were no pictures on his walls. On top of a tall chest of drawers, however, a set of clean cheap toilet articles had been neatly arranged and there was a great picture of a dog, one of those magnificent canine heads which, by anal brave, unselfconscious, have a nobility greater than humanity's. "Tell me about you dog Father," was the girls first question when after a brief inspection she came back into the outer room. "He's sue ha beauty." "It isn't my dog It's Jock Aylewards. The animal is dead now. Imagine. He was Jock's beast before Jock met with an instant. She wished to draw the poor face he had hidden against her breast. He killed the impulse with laughter, genuine laughter that could not wound her though it mocked. "You wretched woman-thing," said Nick, his whole face gleaming with charm and with musculine rebellion, "get out, get away from me. I won't be mothered by you. Go on and rumage through my possessions. Eve. You may indulge your feminine curiosity at my expense but I'm blasted if I'll be the victim of your softness. Lynda, don't you fall in love with me, understand?" "I must love you," said Lynda softly. "I must love you. You are me. I feel you in me." "Above his papers he started blankly for an instant. Then, "Thanks, Lynda," he said simply "I like to be a part of your loveliness, if only for a little while. Go on now. I really have to finish this. When you come back we'll talk." The bedroom, which contained one full-sized bed and one narrow cot against the wall, was the most untidy and unattractive Lynda had ever been But it was nearly mine he came back to furious Ayleward came in at humming a dance air waved wisely look on his On the way to get a gripped Jock by the arm. "I must talk to you, pre about Nick." "Do you like to dance ward." "Yes. But I'm not dressed restaurant and my mother." "You're dressed for taking you to, only I w a bit stagey." At the address he had given he helped her out. They mounted steep and which might once have the kitchen of a private Lynda found herself seat against a wall.

Marcella spoke as though she were reciting her volume. "I can see no reason for keeping you waiting much longer, Felix. I did say a four month's engagement but it seems to me that you have tested each other's affections sufficiently, have had time to draw close to each other." The girl looked from one to the other with scared golden eyes. "You mean you'll both go away? You'll leave me alone here for all elk across her breast." Her heart beat visibly under the ivory those days before...before..? Felix bent to her lips. Before his own fell upon them he said in a low key, "Much safer for you, my darlin, to be rid of me just now." Even lower his voice dropped. "I can't wait. I can't wait." And the kiss she dreaded fell upon her with the anguish of a blow. But she endured it, withdrawing into some fastness, anesthetizing her soul. All her body, however, drew itself up and back into the chair as though it suffered pain. She listened while Felix and Marcella discussed details. She breathed deply, her heart at bitter at defiant labor. She was to be left alone in her ignorance of life. And then she was to be given Sandal speaking desperately to her to this man. "Oh, no," said Lynda own heart, "we shall see first. There will be a fortnight at least of liberty and of experience. Perhaps my mother is wrong. Perhaps this Felix does not understand me. Perhaps this one correct and most indulgent gentleman is not the only doorway into life and love. I have a chance to learn the truth, just a brief mad chance, and if during this fortnight I discover that my anger and my shame and my treror under the embrace of a future husband do not mean what my mother assures me that they mean." her chest lifted, a wind seemed no pictures on his wall; a tall chest of drawers, however, a set of clean cheap toilet articles had been neatly arranged and there was a great picture of a dog one of those magnificent canine heads' which, loyal, brave, unselfconscious, have a nobility greater than humanity's.

Home?" He clicked his tongue, his eyes laughing at her. "No. This is not his home. Look like a home to you? Jock is what you might call a bird of passage." "A salesman?" suggested Lynda, proud of her wordly wisdom in being able to guess a business occupation for a man. Nick chuckled. He seemed delighted with her suggestion. Well, yes. You might have him call it that. Her a sort of hunter too. Tonight he's after big game—against my express advice. Dangerous hunting. If I'm touchy tonight, Lynda that's the reason I'm not of a patient disposition. Are you?" Lynda considered this. "I don't quite know.

On the Sidewalks of New York By OBSERVER (Correspondence to The Gazette) Most Main Street residents are under the impression that there are as many and, anyhow, they get enough rests on their regular trips. It is not unusual for a steward to cross both ways these times without getting a single tip—and their wages are practically nothing as they depend almost entirely on gratuities from passengers. Speakeasy Plans Everyone of the thirty thousand speak-easles in this city is all set for a big New Year's Eve. It is the one night in the whole year when grown people want On the Sidewalks of New York By OBSERVER (Correspondence to The Gazette) Most Main Street residents are under the impression that there are as many speakeasies along Broadway as there used to be saloons. That is not true—there are probably only about half as many. As a surprising thing, a lot of New Yorkers still feel dubious about taking their families to them. Out of this condition has grown a new industry—the "Voyage to Nowhere." Ocean steamers put out late Friday nights for a two-day trip, docking early Monday so its passengers can get back to work. This year for the first time, some of the big steamers will leave early on New Year's Eve so that those who desire to celebrate with the flowing bowl can indulge themselves to their heart's content. Ship's Bars. Transatlantic steamships of foreign registry carry an extensive assortment of liquors of all kinds. Nearing port the rooms where the liquors are kept are sealed up and kept sealed until the boat is back on the high seas—twelve miles from the coast. Then the stewards break the seals and open the bar. Many of the steamers put on Christmas cruises of the same nature with a $50 maximum price. But, of course, that did not include the cabaret entertainment. These short cruises mean hard work for the stewards aboard the boats but they do not object as tips are heavy NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDER'S MEETING.
