was also a possible antidote for the
slow poison of her love for Eric.
She had made rule now that she
could only think of Eric while brush
ing her teeth. During those I'M
romantic periods she gave her mem
cries free play, clamping the lid
down Immediately afterward.
The result was beneficial to her
teeth and mentally. Yet she was
always conscious of an aching vcid
an emptiness which must be filled.
It occurred to her once during the
tooth-brushing ritual that the fire
she suspected in Jerry might con-
sumo the remnants of her passion
for the other man.
It was a desperate thought, born
of night haunted by dreams OF her
lover. She put the idea from her as
unworthy, and she did not call him.
But more and more she was forced
to recognize his potentialities.
In the meantime there were end
less opportunities for her to become
interested in some one else. One OF
the new teachers at school, from the
East, and lonely, became suddenly
attentive.
He was slightly bald, stoop-shoul-
dered, and carried cane.
But his knowledge of music fasci-
mated Nancy. And he took her to
concerts and recitals she could not
otherwise have afforded.
She was grateful until the night
he paved her hand during the third
number of a symphony concert.
Thereafter she felt compelled to
plead previous engagements-regret-
full, for she had natural craving
for music. But the cold moistness
of that enforced contact had ruined
her evening.
There was also a fellow student
one who considered himself gen.
ius. Eugene Wood was a tempera-
mental, dreamy-eyed egoist, irnprac-
tical visionary, yet with such pas
sionate faith in his own future that
one almost believed with him.
Nancy enjoyed the impersonality
of their companionhip. 1t consisted
Of dinners at inexpensive French or
italian restaurants, and walks along
Fisherman's Wharf, watching the
loaded boats, listening to smatter-
ing Of dialects, and shifting the salt
fsh-tainted air, which reeked of ad-
venture.
1t forced her to think of Eric.
That scene! Swept her with an in
sane longing to jump into a snug
little craft and sail into the I'M
known. With him! Yet well she
knew she would never have had the
courage.
Hadn't he offered her adventure?
And hadn't she refused? She shiv-
