“
Oh
,
you
haven
’
t
,
”
he
said
,
eyeing
her
keenly
.
“
No
,
sir
,
”
she
replied
.
“
Well
,
we
prefer
young
women
just
now
with
some
experience
.
I
guess
we
can
’
t
use
you
.
”
Carrie
stood
waiting
a
moment
,
hardly
certain
whether
the
interview
had
terminated
.
“
Don
’
t
wait
!
”
he
exclaimed
.
“
Remember
we
are
very
busy
here
.
”
Carrie
began
to
move
quickly
to
the
door
.
“
Hold
on
,
”
he
said
,
calling
her
back
.
“
Give
me
your
name
and
address
.
We
want
girls
occasionally
.
”
When
she
had
gotten
safely
into
the
street
,
she
could
scarcely
restrain
the
tears
.
It
was
not
so
much
the
particular
rebuff
which
she
had
just
experienced
,
but
the
whole
abashing
trend
of
the
day
.
She
was
tired
and
nervous
.
She
abandoned
the
thought
of
appealing
to
the
other
department
stores
and
now
wandered
on
,
feeling
a
certain
safety
and
relief
in
mingling
with
the
crowd
.
In
her
indifferent
wandering
she
turned
into
Jackson
Street
,
not
far
from
the
river
,
and
was
keeping
her
way
along
the
south
side
of
that
imposing
thoroughfare
,
when
a
piece
of
wrapping
paper
,
written
on
with
marking
ink
and
tacked
up
on
the
door
,
attracted
her
attention
.
It
read
,
“
Girls
wanted
—
wrappers
&
stitchers
.
”
She
hesitated
a
moment
,
then
entered
.
The
firm
of
Speigelheim
&
Co
.
,
makers
of
boys
’
caps
,
occupied
one
floor
of
the
building
,
fifty
feet
in
width
and
some
eighty
feet
in
depth
.
It
was
a
place
rather
dingily
lighted
,
the
darkest
portions
having
incandescent
lights
,
filled
with
machines
and
work
benches
.
At
the
latter
laboured
quite
a
company
of
girls
and
some
men
.
The
former
were
drabby
-
looking
creatures
,
stained
in
face
with
oil
and
dust
,
clad
in
thin
,
shapeless
,
cotton
dresses
and
shod
with
more
or
less
worn
shoes
.
Many
of
them
had
their
sleeves
rolled
up
,
revealing
bare
arms
,
and
in
some
cases
,
owing
to
the
heat
,
their
dresses
were
open
at
the
neck
.
They
were
a
fair
type
of
nearly
the
lowest
order
of
shop
-
girls
—
careless
,
slouchy
,
and
more
or
less
pale
from
confinement
.
They
were
not
timid
,
however
;
were
rich
in
curiosity
,
and
strong
in
daring
and
slang
.
