/, for many reasons. You have been
devoted to me and believe In me: you
are strong and handsome and have an
alert mind. But to make our life,
long happiness assured you must life
| us above the sordid vexations of the
| world. We are both hopeful and am

content should we have to give up our
ideals for commonplace. I do not
say that should not love you in adj
versity, but I abhor It and know that
our lives would be greatly marred IL

The realization OF all this had rid

before her a normal human being,
conscious that had weight and much
of 1t, and that instead of floating ideal
istically must tread the earth like
any other man. The dream faded and
grim actually took its place. In
stead of soaring to the glittering
mountain peak in eagle-like flight
must climb there. Yet by abandoning
the winding and beaten roads I could

you did. You have awakened me to
a fuller realization that / have no
right to ask you to entrust yourself
to my keeping until I have proven
that with my arms around you, you
will be protected from the yulgarities
and petty troubles OF life as a woman
Of your kind should be protected.
Therefore until | have proven this
my wine glass shall remain turned
down. She clapped her hands soft
~ and picked up her own glass by it's
reed-like stem.
Bravo. give you my moral sup
port by following your good example"
She pushed 1t, half filled, to one side
as expostulated.
But it is not necessary that you
should deny yourself simply because
I do. Yours is not the struggle, it lie
but the waiting" Her hand slid over
