CHAPTER Vlil.

Through the open country Blbbs was
borne flying between brown lelds and
sun-hecked groves OF gray trees, to
breathe the rushing, clean air beneath a
glorious sky. Upon Blbbs' checks there
was a hint OF actual color, but unde-
niably its phantom. This apparition
may have been partly the result OF u
lady's bowling TO him upon no more
formal introduction than the clrcum-
stance OF his having caught her look
ing into his window a month before.
1t seemed to Blbbs that she must have
meant to convey her forgiveness. Nor
did he lack the impression that he
would long remember her as he had
Just seen her; her veil unanimously
blowing back, her face glowing In the
wind--and that look OF gay friendll-
ness tossed to him like a fresh rose In
carnival.
By and by, upon n rising ground, the
driver halted the car, then backed and
tackled, and sent Il forward again with

air; and a roar and clangor of metals
beat deafeningly on Bibbs' ears. Now
the car passed two great blocks of long
brick buildings. hideous in all ways
possible to make them hldeous. And
big as these shops were, they were
growing bigger, spreading over third
block, where two new structures were
mushroomlng to completion In some
hasty cement process of a stability not
over-reassuring. Bibbs pulled the rug
closer about him, and not even the
phantom Of color was left upon his
cheeks as he passed this place, for he
knew It too we'll Across the face OF
one of the buildings there was an enor-
nous sign: Sheridan Automatic
Pump company, Inc"
Thence they went through streets OF
wooden houses, all grimed, and adding
their own CRIME from many a sooty
chlTney; fimsy wooden houses OF a
thousand fiimsy whimsies In the fash
loning, built on narrow lots and nudg-
ing one another GROSSLY. Along these
streets there were skinny shade trees,
and here and there forest elm or wal
nut had been left but these were
dying. Some people said it was the
scale; some said 1t was the smoke; and
some were sure that asphalt and ''lm-
proving" the streets did 1t; but Bigness
was in too big a hurry to bother much
about trees.
Onward the car bore Blbbs through
the older parts Of the town where the
few solid old houses not already de-
mollshed were In transition; some were
being made into apartment buildings;
others had gone uproariously into
trade; one or two peeped humorousy
over the tops Of office buildings OF one
story In the old front yards. Altogether,
the town here was like a boarding
house hash the Sunday after Thanks
giving; the old ingredients were dis
| cernible.
This was the fringe OF Bigness' own
sanctuary, and now Blbbs reached the
roaring holy OF HOLES itself. Magnih-
cent new buildings, already dingy,
doomed hundreds OF feet above him,
newer ones, more magnificent, were
rising beside them, rising higher; the

SYNOPSIS.

Sheridan's attempt to make a business
man of his son Bibbs by starting him in
the machine shop ends in Bibbs going to
sanitarium, nervous wreck. On his re-
turn Bibbs is met at the station by his
sister Edith. He finds himself an incon-
siderable and unconsidered figure in the
New House" of the Sheridans. He sees
Mary Vertrees looking at him from a
old town family and impoverished. call on
the Sheridans, newly rich. and afterward
discuss them. Mary puts into words her
parents unspoken wish that she marry
one Of the Sheridan boys. At the Sheri-
dan housewarming banquet Sheridan
epreads himself Mary frankly encourages
Jim Sheridan's attentions. and Blbbs hears
he is TO be sent back to the machine shop.

would consider II an outrage; and the
big chronometer In Sherldan's office

walked In. Coincidentally with his en-
trance FIVE people who had been at
work in the office, under Sherldan's di-
