Joan climbed YEARLY up the stairs
to her third story room. She seldom
felt tired, but tonight the whole world
looked criss-cross.
She was a stranger in the city and

Thought so oppressed her. She had
haired with delight the chance of
work here for a few weeks, as giving
her the opportunity of seeing the
place she had long desired to visit.
But the weeks had grown very long.
In spite Of her pride and beauty Of
health and vigor, she was essentially
womanly woman, dependent upon
her friends and surroundings for her
happiness. Caring for herself had not
robbed her of a certain femininity
In general she was somewhat feared
at the New York office, feared because
of her ability to do-admired for her

women like herself, trying to earn a
living by that uncertain weapon, the
pen.
Then she lighted the gas and laid
the letter which had been troubling
her all day on her desk. She walked
across to the window and leaned her

cared for her? No one had ever been
IL love with her before.
During the strenuous days of her
early girlhood there had been no time
for such things in her ambitious life.
She had grown to consider herself un-
attractive, for she was very modest
woman in spite of her success.
Her school days had been at best
haphazard ones. Her teaching had
been miserable failure. Therefore,
the fact that Mr.. Lloyd wished her to
be his wife seemed a great honor.
Joan laughed her soft, good-humored
little laugh as she noticed that he had
signed himself John G. LLOYD & Co.
Restlessly she walked back to the
window and leaned her head against
the cool glass.
