Tone that down, Murray, or hold it back a bit." The rehearsal of “The World’» Way” waa on. Raw gaslight flooded the stage and showed the auditorium beyond, a shadowy pit that echoed every word. Tom stood near the manager, the prompt book in hi» hand, interlining it with new suggestions for stage business and some times altering a line to I m * more effective. He was accustomed to the theatre by this time. For two week» he had been coming and going, spending much of his time among scene painter» and holding long interviews with the manager. He no longer felt resentful at hearing the text slurred at rehearsals and only the cues given with <listinctn»*»H. He was accustomed to seeing the players go through the “business" like automatons, and climaxes his heart had stood still in creating arranged with mechanical ex actness. The skeleton of the players* craft— without the simulated passion and hu mor—the hardship and disillusion, were all familiar now. The days were too short for all he found to do, and sometimes it was past midnight before lie thought of returning to Chelsea square. The interrupted avowal of his love to Virginia had not been finished. But in a vague, happy way she understood that even that must remain abeyant to the success of his play. Ofttiines the thought that it might fail gave him a soul sickness that im- bittered his food and kept sleep away. It was not enough to hear it praised and feel its reality himself. The final ver dict must come from the crowd, the vague mass called the public, depending upon its mood. What this would be who could foretell? He heard on every band of plays teeming with promise that had gone down like ships at sea with flags flying and cargoes of gems on board, of others of only doubtful value that had made fortunes and established reputations. Doubt left him no peace, and the first night of “The World’s Wav’’ found him with every sense quivering and alert. Behind the scenes the air was freighted with fever. Everybody was whispering, peeping, speculating except Tom, and he leaned against one of the wings wait ing. He could do no more. Opallike gleams of excitement flickered in his eyes, nervous tremors ran through his bl<Mxl, ami behind an easy smile his teeth were clinched. He could not breathe freely until the first act was over. Five minutes before the curtain went up he peeped over the gasman’s shoulder and looked eagerly at the upper right hand box. He saw Mr. Kent first, stand ing well in front leisurely surveying the house through an opera glass as famil iarly as if boxes on first nights were quite everyday matters. A little more in shadow sat Virginia. Tom scarcely knew her in the new gray gown and the feathered hat with bent rim. How pretty she was! Happiness was a tonic that had softened every curve of her face. Her eyes, dilated to a starry radiance, rented dreamily on the still undrawn curtain. Her cheeks were a burning pink. A tenderness swept over his heart, and the thought of all she was to him rose triumphant above every other feeling. Was it not good to know that one in that crowded house was thinking with tenderness of him, not as the new dram atist making a bid for fame, but just as “Tom,” whose every hope was at stake? Perhaps as they went home he might whisper those three words that hold im prisoned in tlwir small circle the har mony of the world. He might tell her in the crowded car, or for a moment be fore parting in the hall. It mattered not how or where if only he received in a word the assurance of the belief that she loved him. The first few moments following the tinkle of the bell he never remembered clearly. Save for the rustle ef the prompter’s book there was absolute si lence behind the scenes. The house was as still. On the hush voices swept to him speaking the words he knew by heart. The music commenced faintly like the distant sob of waves—a swaying melody painful and sweet. Toni dared to lift his eyes and watch the scene; then by degrees the painful sense of trepidation left him, for this was the pregnant action he had dreamed of. These were the words fire laden, scorch ing, living—the passion that had put on the garb of reality—the humor, sweet, surprising and irresistible. Sometimes a gust of laughter swept over the house, intermittent applause that showed crit ical appreciation, or dead, absorbed si lences. But when the curtain fell a sound like a thunderbolt lea^ied across the footlights and made the scenery quake. It sank only to revive again, its clamor swelling like a storm at its culmina tion. Ah. then he seemed lifted up. The sound made him sick with delight. His hour had struck. The players stood around him. a flush ed, triumphant group. “It’s a go.’’ “A hit." “Went swimmingly. Every line told. I I never played to a warmer house." Words like these and the ¡»ersistent applause followed him down the nar row passage to the street. He wanted j to feel alone for a little while the rap ture of triumph. They lied who said that hope was a fallacy, life a failure. The world had widened ami grown so ’ fair. The years teemed with rosy pos sibilities, mystic, beckoning. His heart was full with a rush joy. It seemed to him there never was a fairer night than this, whic h marked the first important ascent in his life. Frost glittered on the pavements like pale dust. The rays of the moon blanched window pane« into squares of pearl and sketched the outline*» of chimneys and doorposts in fanciful blac k angles. As he strode along his blood tingled in the seductive confusion of a dream where passion and triumph walked hand in hand. Virginia—he loved her so! Sh»* waa »<' necessary to him. He would make up for all she suffered now. Ah. would ho not? It would be sweet to lavish upon her the dainties and elegancies that all women love. She should have done with pinching and worry in that happy time. Wonderful visions these, which Tom 1 saw revealed in the moonlight. Stain less, they buoyed his spirit and beckoned ( him on. When he reac hed the theater, the sec ond act was over. He felt a little tired. gAd hi* breath came fact, yet in his ex- • W m when sne neard bls rich toned, familiar voice acrues the footlights, a tear did fall ou the new pearl colored gloves. As he retreated amid mure “bravos” and hand clapping he sent her a glow ing glance, and she waved her baud to hiiu. It was worth having lived forthat moment. He was waiting outside the theater, but only to »ay he could not return with her. ami he introduced Delatóle, who stood by, his chin luxuriously buried in a great fur collar. Before turning away he managed to »ay in a low voice: “Have I justified your belief in me, I Virginia? Tell me that." “You need not ask. The public has I answered, but in case yon have any • doubt let me tell you I wanted to hug the audience en masse, and—just look at my glove».’’ He left her laughing and half looking back, and she waa glad—yes, glad—of thia chance that made him theguevt of a brilliant man on this happy night. But I something cold fell upon her heart a» in crossing the street she turned her head and saw Tom striding away in the show er of moonlight by his new friend’s Bide. It was a foolish, womanly apprehen sion without r<Mit or reason, such as. born in the darkness, die in the morning. Fight it as slm would, however, it came back and clung to her as the dampness cling» to the walls of a sunless room un til every semblance of cheer died under the depressing chill. “It will be different tomorrow.” she said, with a heavy sigh, a« she fell asleep that night. domination of a romantic passion per- liaps the first. And he is so uutried he i doesn't know he has cause to cry aloud and beat hi» hands for joy. It won't I last. It never doe«. By and by, when life has left a bitter taste in his mouth, he will remember with wonder and long ing that he once thought one particular woman worth this impulsive worship He’s quite capable of making a fool of himself. I know the tone. I know the look. So her name’s Virginia, and she been much to him? But 1 needn't laugh. Was I not just such a deliriously happy idiot once?” They had reached a broad, windswept street that crossed Madison avenue not far above the square, and Delatóle turned the corner. “You have heard of Max Glendenning, of course. He leaves for Japan tomor row and give» a farewell hurrah tonight. Quite informal, you know. Meat» on the sideboard, help yourself, come and go as you please, plenty to drink, some good stories, some pretty women. Any friend of mine is his. We were chums, had chambers together and lived a free, ideal existence until”—and a savage sneer twisted Delatóle’» lip still farther to one »ide—“he went down before Madeline Sorel, the burlesque woman. I never saw a man so madly in love. She kept running after him, too, making herself confoundedly at home in our quarters with her rouge, her songs and her ciga rettes. I wouldn’t stand it. We split and parted irrevocably, but with no hard words. He’ll marry her yet—the fel lows are making bets on it—and when he does—bah!” Delatóle stood still in the street. “Have you ever thought, my young friend, to what lengths a man’s infatuation for a woman may lead him?” Raising his elbow he lowered his extend ed index finger with a jerk. “Straight down. There’s no help for him.” “A woman like that!" exclaimed Tom, with sweeping disgust. “Any woman, if she becomes neces sary to him, <’an kill ambition in an art ist. Perhaps »he doe» it with sugared poison, but the dose is sure. Oh, don’t suppose I haven’t loved romantically, wildly, and not a woman of the Sorel type either. The girl who fired my heart —it seems a century ago—was a lovely- little thing with heavenly eyes, and I used to sing hymns with her. When she »ent me a little note as sweet as her- ! áltation he was sc arcely conscious of having walked. At the box office the manager stood chatting with some fnend». A low. j thick laugh gurgled from his lipa; his face was radiant. Everything about him told of a crowded house and big box office receipts. He saw Tom and beck oned to him. “Shy, are you?" ho asked, with a rol licking wag of hi» head, an expanding wave of his white hand». He was a large man, red faced, pale haired, one who had always a genuine welcome for himself, and whose every action was climatic. If he were only offering a cigarette, he plunged into his pocket with an air of mystery and brought forth a triumphant surprise. “You stole away from us all after making the biggest hit I’ve seen in 15 years. Come, come, that will never do. Yon want to pull yourself together, youngster, and get cheeky, for you’ll < HAPTER Vi. have to face the crowd by and by.” “We won't dine tete-a-tete," said De “Face the crowd?
