"Now, Mister Business Man," says
she, "what do you think of that?'
"Eh?' says |, starin' at the figures.
"One hundred and seventeen regular
customers the first week., says she, "and
a net profit of $23.45. Now how about
underwriting that stock issue?a
Well, it was case of backin' up. She
had it all figured out plain. She'd made
good from the start. And, just to prove
that it's real money that she's made all
by herself, she insists on invitn' me out
to celebration dinner. It's swell one,
too, take it from me.
And afterwards we sits up until long
past midnight while Wee plans how, when
this shop gets to runnin' all the work it

has a chain of 'em all over the city. In

and checkin' up Tarkins's reports. Most
OF the apartment janitors wanted to

give up. She goes straight to the owners
and agents and has couple of em fired.
Every evenin' she was just full of it,
chucklin' over her successes and settin'
her chin solid when she admitted where
she'd lost out.
| don't know when I'd ever seen her
so interested in anything, or so chirky.
Her cheeks were pink all the time and her
eyes dancin'. And somehow we had such
a lot to talk about. It's an even swap,
too; for, with her havin' game of her
own, she seemed to sense better the details
of the big deals that we're runnin' at the
Corrugated. Made us closer chums than
ever, if you understand what | mean.
Course, though, | don't expect it to

Gerry wondered who would ever take her
to Colorado now. Who would protect and
love and cherish Rose Carey? Gerry
made a pretense of helping her on the
car. He felt the rough cloth of her coat;
and that contact he remembered for many
weeks, because, as his fingers touched the
coat, he managed to find the side pocket
in it. And into this side pocket he
dropped his wad-his wad of bills.
"Rose Carey, his own voice was saying
softly to himself-"Rose Carey. Good-by,
Rose Carey
"Well?' said the tax-driver.

Gerry.

But he entered the cab and buried his
face in the lap-robe, which smelled Of stale
cigar smoke.
1T was to be the penitentiary!
The penitentiary, however, had lost
its horrors. Others went to the peniten-
tiary, and he could go. But who had
known love like this before? Who else
had known the sweetness of Rose Carey?
Something had been given to Gerry Sands,
and something had been taken away! He
would never see her again.
He would never see her again. He
stopped in front of the Illuminated win
dow of department store on State
Street, with all the early evening noise
and hustle of the city going on around
him, and clenched his hand till the
knuckles cracked. He wanted to die.
Time went by as he wandered listlessly,
empty of stomach, in daze of grief
which after his emotional day never grew
sharp enough to make him exclaim, but
kept on with its terrible ache and it's
accompanying sense of emptiness, of be-
wilderment, of being stupefied. There
was nothing to do-no word to say, no
place to go.
"I gotter get away from the faces"
said he aloud. "All these faces.

Then suddenly, as if the idea had
popped into his head on the end of an
elastic band of memory, he thought Of
Lincoln Park. There he could be alone
almost alone. There he could find the
solace of expression of all the woe which
now, lacking an outlet, distended his
sore spirit.

The night had brought rise of tenn

fall of the morning, and now great bed
of steaming vapor rose from the bosom of
the city. Thickly it covered the open
spaces of the park into the deserted path

car, had wandered. One could see nothing
behind or before, and in this there was
infinite comfort to him.
To himself he pictured the moment
when he would arrive at the concrete seat

The snow on the roof of the main

down, completely blocking the front
door, and making it impossible to
enter or leave the House by the front.

on Saturday, returning on Sunday
to his field of labor.
