De reu eT th'nk about It?" Jehnsen asked, with a Jerk of the thumb toward the room once occupied by Sllaa Bancroft. "Yes," said Bancroft, his expression serious. "By the way, who owned that house before my father bought it?" "I can tell you In a minute," an swered the old clerk. He returned after a brief absence. "It waa purchased from the Chemical Bank." "Who owned It before that?" "I should have te make a sesreb." "Don't bother. But I find myseli curious about everything." "Yes, sir. I still held the opinion that there were high words in there." "But what can be done?" wild Ban croft cvnnively. "There Isn't se much as a single hair te pick up." Jehnsen sighed. "There doesn't seem te be." "De you knew anything about mj father that Mr. Snell doesn't?" "Ne, Mr." "Well, send this letter special de livery, and tell Mr. Sncll I'll be In top morrow, between 11 and 12." "Mr. Snell tells me jeu're quite a Latin scholar, air." "Ob, I can get along with it." "That's one of my pastimes, sir. 1 never tire of the Aeneid." , " 'All of which I saw, and part of which I was.' We'll talk It ever some day. I'm in a hurry new." Youth la Ever In a Hurry Jehnsen sighed ncaln. Youth was ever in a hurry. All at once a brilliant dea pepped Inte his dusty mind. He determined te see what sort of a girl this Miss Bewman was. It was due te the Arm te see that this yeungstei was particularly guarded. It was net tight te sit back and permit blm te be made a feel of. "By-by. Better reconsider and let me give you a whirl some night," said Bancroft, unconsciously using one of Jenny Malley's words. "Pm-tee old for that nonsense." "I'll wager you never had a whirl." "Maybe net. Geed day, sir." On the way back te the beuse in Ninth street Bancroft studied Nancy's letter; that is, he 'studied the address en the envelope. Even though he knew the exact wording of the letter, even though it was really addressed te Mm, be would never break into It. But be would always keep It. He was net In love ; be waa merely In the middle of one of these first adven tures of youth ; be was figuratively sit ting en the perch In the moonlight, or going te a barn dance or te a church so se clsl. It waa the thirsty heart, reach ing for the neareat water; and some how Nancy waa the materialisatien el these dreams he had bad of woman. Lacking a Nancy, he would have bees temporarily satisfied with a Jenny; a pretty, friendly young woman, no mat ter what her name was. He was astonished when the train guard whined, "Eighteenth afreet!" He wnlked down te Ninth street. Evcrj where men und women, bes and Klrlg, were pouring forth out of doers, almost with that jerky hurriedness of the 6lewly turned moving picture cam era which hud always made him laugh. But in this hour he found nothing te laugh at. He was struck by an astounding fact. He was without am am bltlen; that Is, he had no objective, no goal. It seemed Incredible. He could net recall having desired te be wmething a nevellet, an inventor, u merchant prince. What was thy mean ing of that? He had lived the very kind of life te atlr the ambition; anJ all these years he had lent his body te menial tasks and bis brain te moon meon moen Hhtne. What would he lime been bad bis father died In poverty t A farm hand, or u country school tencher, all his life! Te carve out n niche for hlmself-he hadn't really given the mutter uny substantial consideration. Oh. t, he had Imagined himself this or that chnracter, but he had never created a permanent dream of which be himself eneuiu ne me woei una waru. And new the reailc wand of ready money would atrenny the instinct. It was a distinct shock. What could he de? What should he try te de? The notion of feeling nbeut with a Latin primer new disgusted blm. Could he write? Surely, up; or he would have begun scrlbbing long age. He was twenty-four, the son of hi father, and he had no definite ambition, no goal toward which te set his ener gies! He became anpslcd; and the depression abided with him long after the curtain bad risen upon the flrat act of "The Purple Meth" until he discovered Jehnsen In the uudlence! He wanted te laugh; for he under under under utoed the meaning of the old fossil's appearance In tbfi ungodly temple of muste and flesh and laughter. Wanted te sea for himself what sort of a girl It waa whose deg had been worth se much trouble. The first impulse waa te meet him and carry him off te Nancy and Jenny, ae first mate te hla own Columbus. Thet would be funny the fossil and the pollywog venturing forth for the first time into the nlgTit life of a great city. But he had te dismiss the notion as tee dangerous. Jehnsen might stumble verbally and give the l.u,,.. ii ! and that would enJ the romance before It beaan. go he ceniJdsrtd it win te lei Jbhnaea go all way.
