er what such an unconventional meet
lag e tb.is means to me. I ought: to be
ashamrd of myself."
"But are you?"
"Really I I do not seem to be. It
almost frightens me to realign I am
not. I do not understand myself at
ell. Why should I talk' thus frankly
with you? Why feel conlldmee In
you? It is not in accordance ith.-tb.e
rales of Toy old life nor of my nature.
Buch actions would shock those who
know me. They ought to shock me.
Am I la a dream from which 1 a as go
to awaken presently? Ia that the
explanation? . .
I shook nay head. s 1
"Ko. You have only been thrown
gainst the real world. You find It
r.ot to be what you supposed. 'It Is no
t attse for shame or regret. Woman

conditions society would frown at-

a gentleman moat always , extend to

For a long moment she did - not
rpeak, btit withdrew her hand from
beneath mine, resting her chin In its
ralm.
"What is your name?" .. shu asked,
finally. ' , .
"Gordon Craig." - -i '
The lashes ' drooped quickly, aecure-!-
shadowing the brown depths, the
Hush deepening on her cheeks. In the"
momentary hush that followed. . the
waiter came shuffling forward with
our order. i - i ' ,:
I had neer supposed I . lacked au
dacity, yet I found it strang!ly- difficult-
t again pick up our emversa
f 'on. This woman pnzzled me was
becoming an enigma. Her eyes again
glanced up -and met mine. : ;
"It is a terribJe experience being
penniless' and alone, she s:iii5 with a
shudder. "I can never condexin ' some
forms of evil as I once did, for now
1 have felt temptation myself., I 1
have even learned to doubt my own
"I think you' have saved .me from my

in eagerly. "Would you mind telling
me who you are? , ' ,

"Then there Is, at least, one tie be
tween us. But if we are to remain
friends I must know how to address

Her red Hps jparted doubtfully,, her
hrow wrinkling. . - , - ;
"Xes, and we cannot afford to be
conventional, can we? I am Viola Ber
nard, and I" must tell my story to some
one, I can fight fate alone no. longer.
Perhaps I may not confess everything,
for I do not know you well enoHgu
for that,, but enough at least so yon
will no longer suspect that I I am a
bad woman." i "
"I could never really believe that.'
! Oh, yes, yon could. I have read in
your . face tnut my character puzzles
you. You invited me to drink a cock
tail to try me. Don't protest, for real
ty I do not Wonder at it or blame you
ra the least. How could you think
otherwise? There is a home I could
return to, and a mother, but-they are
more than a thousand miles from here.
But I cannot go, even if I possessed
-s meeu. because of my pride my
false pride possibly. I have chosen
ny course and must abide by. it to
tfce end." i
She drew a long breath, speaking
very slowly. . : -:
"It is a hard story to tel! for the
wound is still fresh and hurts.'. ' I was
upon the stage not long, but with suf
ficient success so that I hal become
leading woman with one of the best
stock companies. It was apainst my
mother's wish I entered the profession,

to "it, although our relationship , re
mained pleasant. A few months "ago
while playing in Omaha I ' met Fred
Bernard. I knew little of him, but he
appeared gentlemanly 'and well to do
and was presented to me by one. In
whom I had confidence.' He was pleas
ant and apparently In love with me.
I liked him, was flattered by his atten
tions and discouraged in my ambition.
When he asked me to marry him con
ditions were- such that I accepted, even
consented under his urging to an . im
mediate ceremony: . We came to this
city, were quietly married , here , and
occupied a flat -on the north, side. My
husband did no work, but received re
mittances from ' home and . apparently
had plenty of means. He told me lit
tle about- himself or his condition, but
promised to take me to his people in a
little; while:, He said .his father was
wealthy, but eccentric; that he had
told him of. our marriage,-: but there
had been a quarrel between them; and
he could not take me there without an
invitation. I was never shown the let
ters, -but they; bore, southern post
marks." ,
She paused, hesitating, her ieyes full
f fain. i i
"I I was afraid to question, for for
Be proved so different after our mar
riage. He was a . drunkard, abusive
and quarrelsome. I' had never before
been in intimate contact with any one
like that, and I was afraid ot him.
Whatever of love I might have .felt
died within me under - abuse. He
struck me the second day, . and from
that moment X dreaded his homecom
ing. For weeks I scarcely saw him
sober, and his treatment of me was
brutal."
Tears were in her eyes, but she held
them back, forcing herself, to go on.
, : "Then he -was gone two days and
nights, ' leaving me alone. He reap
peared the third evening in the worst
condition I .had ever seen him. He
acted like a veritable savage, cursing
and 'Striking at me and Anally drove
me from the houset flourishing a re
volver in my face and locking the door
behind me. I I sat there on the steps
an hour and : endeavored to go back,
but there -was no response. I walked
the streets i and then having a vlittla
pioneer with me found a . place to
lodges 1 The next day I went back, but
the flat was locked still, and neighbors
said my husband had left with a trav
eling , bag;' 1 I' was actually thrown
out upon the streets to starve." f i
- Her voice lowered so - that I was
compelled, to lean, closer to catch the
rapidly spoken words. y -
"At first I I was not altogether sor
ry. I thought it would be easy to find
work. ' I was not afraid ot that, but
but it: was not easy. Oh, how hard 1
tried! : I faced open insult, cowardly
insinuation, brutal coarseness. If . X
bad been skilled in any business line
my reception might have been differ
ent If X - possessed recommendations
or could ; have' ifrankly -confessed the
truth perhaps I might have been given
a chance. I endeavored so hard to dis
cover some opening; I even sought do
mestic service and was examined as
though I. was a horse on sale. I walk-,
ed the streets; 1 refused to despair or
permit myself to- believe . failure possi
ble. I went home at night, tired out,
to a little rented room in ' Forty-ninth
street, prayed as" I used to . wben a
child,', cried . myself to sleep,, only to
wake up the next morning determined
to continue. I was not weak then; I
was as strong as any girl could be. I
I fought it out to - the very last"
her head suddenly drooping "but but
the end came just the same. Perhaps
I should never have hung on so long;
perhaps it would have been better to
have sent word to my mother and ask
ed help to go home.. But but 1 kept
hoping' to succeed until it was too late.
I spent all the little- money I -had and
pawned .my rings. , I ; had married
against my mother's wish. jI could not
turn, to her for help. Oh, I was tempt
ed; I think you must know what I
meant . You realize what temptation
is how It weakens and conquers the
soul?" : 1 ', '
I closed my. hand firmly over hers,
"Yes, I know."
' Her' sensitive face brightened, 'her
eyes clearing of mist, v
is a' comfort to speak with a gen
tleman again, s I I had almost begun
to believe . there were -none left in the
world. . You give me courage to go on,
to acknowledge everything Mr. Craijr,
I was a soul 'tottering on the brink
when I met you out yonder a desper
ate, disheartened girl, tempted to the
pdint of surrender." . ; .
My fingers closed yet more tightly
over the small hand, jbut her face re
mained rigid, the lines deep about the
bouth. : . ';,:'.;.: .
"The-landlady had turned me out,"
speaking now bitterly and swiftly, "re
taining my few belongings. I. had noth
ing left nothing. - For a week I had
listened to no kind word, met with no
kind act. I was upon the street alone
at night, purposeless, homeless, wan
dering aimlessly from place to .piace,
weakened by hunger, stupefied by de
spair. ;
' "I found myself out among the resi
dences,; where everything was stHl and
lonely, walking, walking, walking, ev
ery shadow appearing like a ghost. I
sat down to rest on the curbing, but a
policeman drove me away... Once I
crept into a darkened vestibule in a big
- apartment building," but another dis
covered me there and - threatened to
take me to the station. The night grew
misty and damp, but I found no- shel
ter. I had no will power left, no wom
anhood, no remorse. : It was thus I
came- there to that corner. I heard
the policeman approaching along the
side street and, terrified, .sprang into
the yard to escape; then then X : met
you." - . - . . . - . '
"Tell me," I questioned earnestly,
"what caused you to interfere between
me and the oflJcer?" 1
'What! Oh,: X hardly know," a touch
of hysteria - in the ' nervous exclama
tion. "I was compelled to choose in
stantly between his mercy and yours.
The the . difference t seemed : small
enough then, but but I realized you
were frightened also, and and so I
preferred to trust you.' That was all.
It was my fate, and and, well I didn't
care much how it ended." .
'But you endeavored to escape from
me. ' You sought to compel . my leav
ing you?"'-. ,
She; lifted he face again, flushing,
saddened, slightly indignant, the brown
eyes widening.
"Perhaps "the soul was not all dead,"
she returned gravely. .."Perhaps wom
anhood was : not all gone. I did not
know you. I was in terror. But now
I am not afraid. - I believe I .. have
found a roan and a friend."
I was conscious of a sudden - wild
throb of the heart, ' a swift rush of
blood through my veins, v - .
"X might have doubted that myself
awhile ago," I acknowledged almost
bitterly, "but now I am going ta make
good. Lord, how a fellow can run to
seed when he lets-himself go' , Don't
you" know you are helping me as muchW
as I am you? You didn't find much
out there only a drunken discharged
soldier, an ex-hobo 'With-a laborer's
Job. I've wasted my chance in life
and been an infernal fool.. I can see
that plain enough -and despise myself
for it. I knew it before you came.
The difference was then I didn't care,
while now: I do. You have made, me
care. Yes. : you have, girl'.': as she
' glanced up again, plainly startled by
this .unexpected avowal. . "You see,
you belong to my class, little girl, and
- and you ' are ' the first of . them v to
speak a kind word to me in five years.
It's--lt's abit tough to be cufrdead by
your own class." .. . .
, It was her hand, white and slender,
which reached shyly across the table
and touched mine, but "her eyes alone
made answer. . . : .'
: "That is all right," I continued, my
voice sh a king. . "I " understand . how
you feel. But this is no fit place for
your kind. You better go home to
your mother. '
She shook her head with decision.
"Why not? Is she hard?"
. "Yes. i She would be very hard with
me." ' .
? "Do you mean you would rather xisk
It here with with-me, "than go back
and face her?" ' i - .
' "Yes, even- that,": she repliafl sober-
ly. 1 ' "1 1 have, courage to tight It . out
here, but not there. " 1 1 know what it
will mean if I go back reproaches,
gossip, ostracism,, all the petty meant
nesses of a small town.. , I loathe the
very thought. I am strong Again, and
I will not go. It is between God and
me, this decision-between God and
me." She drooped her head, hiding
her "face upon her arms, fcer shoul
ders trembling.; t "You yon ; may de
spise me. You may think me the low
est of the low, but I 1 ara going' to
stay here." ; - , ' :

'clinched. ..-.:.; : ;-. ;
