CHAPTER III.

After n few blocks he let down his
stride to an amble and began his
faVorite pastime-building castles
And always there was a garden,
wife and a couple OF kids For why
should he build castles but for these?
He looked up at the spangled canopy
of the night. He saw Two little
brown shoes step lightly from star TO
star; one-tW o-three, and they were
gone. His school teacher: there was
the girl for you; no nonsense about
her, always on the job. Where did
she go on her vacations? And what
had really restrained him from going
up into the street just once for a
peek a her? Perhaps it was the fear
that his fatal beauty would have
blasted her where she stood. oh.
well; perhaps the Lord had made the
majority of human beings homely so
that some real work could be done.
Handsome-Is was always crawling
under the job, watching the clock and
beating it five minutes before closing
hour.

another channel The picture OF the

He had forgotten all about renting"
an elephont. What were current
prices for pachyderms by the mile?
While the clerk was explaining to him
that the Bombay office would have to
take charge of that. William heard
a woman's voice at his elbow. He
turned. He never forgot faces. After
a moments digging, he recognized the
young woman as the one to whom he
had spoken that memorable night at
the movie. He became interested at
once.
She was pretty, but her face was
pale and drawn, and there were dark
shadows under her eyes.

clerk.
The young woman pushed fat
packet of bills across the counter
These bills had the appearance OF
having dwelt in idleness for long.
William saw her thrust the ticket
into her handbag. What amazed him
was that she did not give the ticket
single scrutiny. She slipped the
handbag over her arm and departed.
