ter's library ticket, by way of stopping
this misuse of time. Then Billy lent her
his; the book that Teresa was carrying
had been taken out on Bllys ticket.
She had been happily reading aloud
from Theresa could get more out of
the sentences when she intoned them
"An-G-l-a-d-y-s-e, Gladi-ce-St. Adams
had come into her hurry-hurry-tudge of
love, deep, true, saddusfyin', ordained for
every woman's heart from the foundations
of time"
just like that it sounded; and it woke
Durgan, the night Waterman, so that he
came in, and stared at her with Redeemed
eyes in which sleep defeated rose to
frenzy.
He had threatened to burn the book.
That had brought out the fact that the
volume was on Billy's ticket Billy was
forbidden the house. And now Teresa
was out to return it, and to promise to
meet him in the evenings down here in the
square. This was pretty nice and ro-
mantle, ever so much like the book on
her arm. only that Durgan wasn't an
earl, and Billy-wel, she'd rather have
Billy just as he was. Billy was good
enough for her.
ON the opposite pavement somebody
approached, whistling. She ran across
the street-railway tracks, slim, eager
figure in the dimness.
"Llo, Tress."
"Llo, Billy"
They took hands for a minute, and
stood peering at each other-happy just
in that. Then the music of the piano on
the avenue suggested to the boy:
want to go to the movies?'
"Nope. Les set on bench here
WHILE got something to tell you"
He stepped beside her, a loose-jointed
young fellow rather like a rangy colt, in
need of filling out. Yet he was an eff
cient individual of his sort-or promised
well for it. No doubt Teresa's instinct,
which preferred him to the visCount of
the love tale, was quite sound. They
found an unoccupied bcnch-the one
farthest from the lights.
al brung your book-thc one got on
your ticket"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1915-08-29

Billy was slowing the volume in his
pocket before he thought to ask:
"Found your own ticket yet? You can
keep mine if you amt. l can get what l
want on Buds" ~: 49,
mo, amt found mine-and I reckon
l never will Like as not nav burned it
up. She was always sayin' she would"
Better keep this, then"
The book was half withdrawn again
when Teresa stopped him.
"No-you keep it. want you to read
it. It's-it's an elegunt story. It's grand.
want you to read it now, Billy"
The boy laughed. A long arm on the
back of the bench curved bit to cradle
her shoulders.
"Me readin' love stories!" he jeered
bud an mere pickin' out books that
makes a kind Of correspondence course.
What man needs is somethin' that'll
help him to better job"
"Wsht you would read it," Teresa
urged inadequately.
What she really wanted to say, could
she have found the words,-an even the
ideas,-was that this tale of Gladyse st.
Adams and her viscount lover bore upon
llt JOD vi lONS, UIdO ollc uluH
to have that regarded as only the wo-
mans job.
you've read it-tell me what it says,
counseled Billy. "Tell it all to me now.
I'd love to have you"
The policeman paced his beat; the
trolley rounded it's corner, flashing and
changing; the music from the motion pic
ture booth came to them, softened on the
spring air; and Teresa told the tale of
love as it appeared to her.
There were Interruptions. Sometimes
Billy showed that he was listening by de-
handing elucidation. Sometimes she
discovered that he was not. because he
leaned forward and watched her face, for
getting what she said in the motion of her
lips.
@Say that over. You make your mouth
such pretty shape when you say 'viss-
count"
Yet who could complain that the de-
tails of another's love story were neglected
for the warm, living movements of ones
own? The tale of Gladyse st. Adams had

"HE house stood at the dark corner
of the square. 1t was the hour
when most people are eating the
- evening meal, or cleaning after it.
The streets lay empty. The square, a
sordid spot by day, held now some dim,
pleasant mystery. At the other end it
opened out into lights and noise: a troll
ley changed; the mechanical piano at
motion picture booth offered its contribu
ton of sound as music.
Teresa leaped free into the April dusk,
and forgot what she left behind her as
only blessed youth can forget. The jar
and fret in the Durgan apartment where
the immemorial argument over question
that would never be settled proceeded
and had proceeded, as long as her men,
DRY held, between her father and mother,
the more passionate upbraidings that
shook the air in the fiat above, where
Jess, her married sister, wrestled with the
problem of boy husband and teething
baby, these dropped away as the dimness
received her.
Durgan was night Waterman. Mrs.
Durgan never found time for the neces-
sary mending Of his wear.
allow dye s'pose mans goin' to
hold down a job when you send him to
it ragged as tramp" So Teresa's
father had questioned his domestic
sphinx from time immemorial.
The answer was not yet satisfactory.
Teresa believed, if she thought about it
at all, that it never would be satisfactory.
And upstairs Jess told Carl that she
wished she was dead-all because he re-
fused to complain that she had burned
the biscuits for the evening meal. 1t was
aggravating way he had of sitting
silent and hacking off the biscuit top with
out looking at you. Teresa dismissed the
remembrance with the mental comment
that Billy, to whom she fled from these
asperities and common-places, was not
like Carl. She and Billy had played
together in the streets since they were
what she called kids. Billy was the only
one of the boys she still found interest
ing after she had taken to reading what
her mother held to be "fool love stories
from the public library.
Mrs. Durgan had burned her daugh-

not reached it's conclusion when Teresa's
head was on Billy's shoulder, his COM
Portable sandpapery cheek against the
satin bloom of hers. Perhaps there was
no need to repeat those words about
deep, true, and satisfying!
1T was, as usual, Eve who let the serpent
into Eden with:
"Paw's mad and says you sha'n't come
to the house any more
whats he mad about?"
81 don't know-just mad"
"Don't he want you to have a fella?"
"Huh-uhn," uneasiy. al guess not"
"They let Jess marry when she wasn't

Something in the suggestion seemed to
irritate the girl.
"Les don't talk about it," she said.
"Ain't it nice out here? Wouldn't you
druther be here than in the house with
them?"
"Yep. But winters comm. What in
time we goin' to do them"
Billy spoke with certain remoteness.
He had gone into a realm that was not
woman's That word slime" logged her
memory-her subjective memory, that
linked Billy with the thing that existed
from the foundations of it. She twitched
his sleeve to make him look at her.
@Aw-it don't make any difference
about paw" she whispered.

warm agreed Billy; "but I've got to

about anything like that!"
"Well, am

al gotta. What'd We do?"
aJess'd let us meet up at her place.
She said she would. I'd ruther. Please,
Billy
Feminine fear of that male ruthlessness
she OWNED in him put the crown on
Teresa's love. She dreaded while she
adored him. Coaxing him into accepting
the idea of Jess's fiat for meeting-place,
diverting him from that other proposition
which lowered in the air, heart-shaking,
inexorable, engaged all her powers.
The bench in the park sat in no Sc
