His success hadn't brought a bit of big head with it, and he was as glad to see me as if we still belonged to the same world. Almont his first question was about ney! , but I couldn't tell him much. I hadn't seen her far @ year, and though she had promised to write to me, I had never received more than one OF two conventional notes. \ “That girl,” sald Powers thoughtfully, “meant more ‘ to me than any woman I ever knew in my life.” I held my breath and waited. Powers was never moved to a burat of confidence tn his life, but he wes alwayaready to coolly analyze himself, body and mind and soul, for any one who was interested “I don't suppose a man ever was as uch In love as I was, and I fought it #0 resolutely,” he went on. “1 suppore she knew It—girls generally do—but I never once let {t come to the surface, I didn't really ac- knowiedge it to myself till the day T sailed. Then— whew!” He shook his head, his eyes contracting at the memory. “But what did you fight?’ I asked, “Well, there I was with my future absolutely uncer- tain and the big fight before me, and I wanted to go into it free. I was horribly ambitious, and when It came to choosing between myself and my work, myself had to go every time. Bemides, it would have been a brutally unfair to her, even !f she had cared.” “Then she didn't-Care?” I asked, “No, she was just a good comrade, and I tried to 7 fool myself by taking the same attitude, though I don’t = | an whose jaws and teeth be drawn by it, togeiaer with the carriage, which cAF-| suppose it fooled anybody else.
