"When did you get to town?" "Only yesterday! You live in Washington, now, don't you?" "Yes, off and on. It's my headquarters for refitting and starting afresh. What do you say to a turn at the dansant?" "I'm ready, I'm sure," she replied. "Afterward we'll " "Discuss other matters!" he interjected.
"How strange!" murmured Helene, as the waiter brought them some champagne and indigestible pastries the true ingredients of 'dansant the'. "Yes, on with the dance-let joy be unrefined! The fall of the Roman Empire was the bounce of a rubber nursery ball, compared with this New York avalanche of luxurious satiation!
The adventure was rather unusual, and the lady altogether attractive and somewhat fascinating; he chose, for the present at least, to go it alone. Moreover, they were to meet on a matter of her business and by her appointment. He had suggested the dansant that he might study her. And the more he saw of her, the more he was struck by her unaffected naturalness and apparent sincerity.

It read: DEAR HARRY: Called you up twice and then dropped into the hotel, but you seem to be out all the time. Have something VERY IMPORTANT to tell you. Shall be busy to-night and in the morning, but will be at the the dansant at the Futurist Tea Room to-morrow afternoon about four. Be sure to be there. "I shall," commented Kennedy.

She had even said point-blank to Mr. Avenel, "Why don't you give a Dejeune dansant?" And, therewith, a Dejeune dansant Mr. Avenel resolved to give. The day was fixed, and Mr.
"Oh, don't be absurd!" snapped Polly, disgustedly. "Anybody'd suppose you were college boys at thé dansant." And she went into the kitchen. "Well, you see what you get, Matt; you would horn in. What do you mean a sporting proposition?" "Oh, a rich one.
