me-" And then, rising alertly: come
along; I've got to hustle home; and
make myself look respectable enough
for the occasion; but at that, with
luck, fancy we'll be there before the
first curtain"
This mood Of faith, Of self-reliance
and assured optimism held unrufiled
throughout the dash homeward, his
hurried change Of clothing and the
ride to the theater. Nothing that EN-
Der, purposely pessimistic, could say
or do availed to diminish the high
buoyancy of his humor. He main
tanned a serene faith in his star,
spirited temper that refused to recog-
nize obstacles In the way Of his de-
sire.
In the taxicab, en- route to the Thea
ter Max, he contrived even to dlstil
good omen from the driving autumnal
downpour itself.
ION such day as this" he told his
doubling friend, II won her first; on
such day shall win her anew, final
ly and for all time!"
From Broadway to Sixth avenue,
Forty-sixth street was bright with the
yellow glare Of the huge sign in front
of the Theater Max. But this night
unlike that other night when he had
approached the stage Of his wifes tri-
umphs, there was no crawling rank of
cabs, no eager and curious press Of
people In the street; but few vehicles
disputed their way; otherwise the rain
and the hurrying, rain-coated wayfar-
ers had the thOroughfare to them
themselves. And even this he
chose to consider a favorable omen:
there was not now public to come
between him and his love-only Max
and her frightened fancies.
The man at the door recognized EN-
Der with cheerful nod; Whitaker he
did not know.
