ESTHER LOOKED from on# to
tbs other of the men. They cared.
Yes, they both cared more, still for
a shadow even of this legendary
Emilia, than for anything or anyone
today.
“No. the roses are withered that
hung o'er the wave . .
It flowed out from the woman on
the platform again, all that shine
and glamour of life at a young high
tide, of a day when life was thrilling
and high, and in its thrilling height
could be flung away gladly because
of a belief in something higher still.
She bowed to them all. holding her
hands tight over the childish gauze
fan. Then she was gone, running In
a graceful haste of azure skirts.
There was no applause for a mo
ment. only a struck silence. In the
blank of it, Esther heard the voice
of the woman at the table behind, &
flat. hard, smalt voice.
“I used to have hair like that. I
used to be able to sit on my hair."
She had been drinking; she put
her head down on the pine table
among the White Rock bottles and
began to cry.

The low-ceiled, wide-spreading
stone house on the Hudson that
night in the fall of ’seventeen was
lighted nil through with fan-thapr-!
flares of gas-light, for John Valaty
disliked the hard whiteness of elec
tricity. In the long living room to
night only lamps shone, big nickel
ones with translucent porcelain
shades, and the tall filigree piano
lamp with Its brittle old rose aitk
lining under a silver tracery of
dalsla* and clovers and roses. It stood
beside the old piano that was thinly
sweet-toned under Robin Valaty’s
brown young hands.
In the sleepy-hollow chair, across
from him, John Valaty lay back
watching his son and daughter with
a raptness that softened the tense
lines of his thin, handsome, gray
mustached face.
Robin was in olive drab, of course.
You couldn't have persuaded him to
get out of it except to sleep. Hln
luminous brown eyes smiled up at
Emilia, leaning over him as he
played scraps of casual simple mu
sic—“ Narcissus” from his little
boyhood. “Drink to Me Only" from
college, and “Maytime” that he had
picked up in New York the last time
he went to the show. They sang
fragments In duet together as he
went along. In half-voice.
“Where’s Roger?" their father
asked. "I thought he was dining
here.” It was unlike John Valaty to
forget about Roger til! the meal was
over; but Robin had only been In
the house on leave from Plattaburg
since five o’clock, and the household
was only now dying down from It*,
delirium. Robin, at twenty-three, was
a weli-known poet, and their house
holds do not invariably adore poets.
But most people did adore Robin. A
few people hated him because some
times he w-as Impolite
Giris, naturally trailed after hfrtf,
morning, noon and night. He made a
little love to any who seemed to
< need it: but so far he liad only been
f greatly In love with God and his
»' fcrfod sword. He answered hjs father's
' question through a web of “It'a a

was back,” Emilia added, watching
her brother adoringly.
“Young Stoddard didn’t seem to
have any such delicacy.” said Mr.
Valaty rather grimly.
Emilia, glancing at her father’s
shadowed face, pressed her sweet dis
order of yellow massed hair against
Robin’s shoulder-strap, laughed, and
said. “Oh. never mind, father—
Robin’s home!” The boy and girl
clung together for a moment; and
the father, watching them, forgot
everything but that it was true. His
son was brave and strong and clever,
his girl was beautiful and winning
and pure. John Valaty’s values were
still very much those of the Hugue
not count, his ancestor. New York
financier though he was. The old
Hudson River families didn’t change
much.
Emilia came and dropped down on
the arm ot her father's chair. She
[ was at a high tide of young living
ind loving. Her sky-blue satin danc
..)g dress molded a long-limbed body,
whose alight curves were accentu
ated to a pretty dignity by the cor
seting beneath, and clung to her
silken ankles as she moved swiftly
to her father.
"There, that’s Roger at the side
door," she said, and ran light-footed
to throw It open to his knock.
Roger stood under the old ship's
lantern on the side porch, big and
broad and fair in his uniform, smil
ing at Emilia over the red-coated
baby girl In his arms, daughter of
his dead, older sister. With hts aunt
Myra, they made the Scarlet house- ,
hold on the next estate.
"Esther’s determined to see her be
trothed before she goes to sleep to
night,” he said with a little laughter
in his deep, slow voice.
Robin had leaped up, and dashing
to the door, reached past Emilia to
snatch little Esther into his arms.
She was a steady-eyed, sober baby.
Even at four she had a serious baby 1
certainty of manner. The boy of
twenty-three and the girl of four '
kissed one another with devotion.
Esther tightened her woolly red-clad
arms around his neck.
“The idea of their trying to keep ,
my fiancee off me till tomorrow
morning?" said Robin.
"They couldn't,” Esther said calmly ,
from his arms.
Roger followed them In, laughing
with the rest. Roger Scarlett was ,
always called "ruther old for his j
age.” He was not actually as mature ,
in some ways as Robin, w hose many- J
sided mind could hold its own with ,
intellects ten years older, nor was he |
as mature in Instinctive worldly wis- j
dom os their fellow lieutenant, the
young Dick Stoddard, who was up- ,
stairs now, grooming himself for the ■
approaching dance. But at twenty- ,

house for six years, and in charge i
of his dead father's large business '
Interests since his majority. It had
given him a responsible habit of
mind which made people forget that

Turning away his head before ht
had stared too tong, Roger was
caught by the tragic intense look of
old John Valaty. He sat looking at
his son, his love and grief and pride
naked for anybody to Ree. . , . They
mustn't.
“Sing something, Emilia. Sing
'Bondermeer's Stream,’ ” Roger said
quickly.
Emilia, smiling, golden, cupping
one young hand formally into the
other in the singer’s attitude as Bhe
had been taught, swung to face them,
and slid into the song. The two
young, happy figures were a focus
of youth and color and intensity un
der the rose-colored lamplight.
Young Dick Stoddard, clattering
downstairs, handsome and trig and
braced to be very much at ease in
the great Valaty mansion, was struck
silent at the stair-foot The father
sat listening, drawn backward to a
time which, since it was past, seemed
more glamorous and romantic than
this; a time when hia wife’s young
hands on the same piano slipped
from the saccharine Impertinences of
“Tell Me, Pretty Malden,” and
"Rhoda's Pagoda” to this song of her
own mother’s, old and far away even
then.
The tw'o young men stared at
Emilia, lost in her. They both re
membered her. that music, that mo
ment, till they were old. ltrlght-col
orcd, warmly sweet, blue and rose
and golden, at once giving and unat
tainable, she stood there in the midst
of the fire-scent and light and music.
To Dick she was a story-book young
lady for the adventurer to win out of
the flimsy Zenda novels he read. To
Roger she was Isolde and Elaine and
Melisande out of his Malory and
Maeterlinck and Wagner. But to
them both she was the Princess, os
her brother was the Comrade. In
their different young adventuring
dreams. She was the breath of a be
lieving world, the high flare of a
candle flame, and their youth was
drunken with her, as the enchant
ment of her song held them.
The music died, swinging gently
into silence a little after the vole*.
The hearers came back with a start,
excepting the baby. Esther, asleep
contentedly against the high, hard
curve of Miss Myra's bosom now that
she had seen her Robin,
The scent of foliacco mixed pleas

room with its group was suddenly a

kindly at-wellness The house, of the
Valatys since America was new, was
one with the people under its roof.
