On
Saturday
Carrie
went
out
by
herself
—
first
toward
the
river
,
which
interested
her
,
and
then
back
along
Jackson
Street
,
which
was
then
lined
by
the
pretty
houses
and
fine
lawns
which
subsequently
caused
it
to
be
made
into
a
boulevard
.
She
was
struck
with
the
evidences
of
wealth
,
although
there
was
,
perhaps
,
not
a
person
on
the
street
worth
more
than
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
.
She
was
glad
to
be
out
of
the
flat
,
because
already
she
felt
that
it
was
a
narrow
,
humdrum
place
,
and
that
interest
and
joy
lay
elsewhere
.
Her
thoughts
now
were
of
a
more
liberal
character
,
and
she
punctuated
them
with
speculations
as
to
the
whereabouts
of
Drouet
.
She
was
not
sure
but
that
he
might
call
anyhow
Monday
night
,
and
,
while
she
felt
a
little
disturbed
at
the
possibility
,
there
was
,
nevertheless
,
just
the
shade
of
a
wish
that
he
would
.
On
Monday
she
arose
early
and
prepared
to
go
to
work
.
She
dressed
herself
in
a
worn
shirt
-
waist
of
dotted
blue
percale
,
a
skirt
of
light
-
brown
serge
rather
faded
,
and
a
small
straw
hat
which
she
had
worn
all
summer
at
Columbia
City
.
Her
shoes
were
old
,
and
her
necktie
was
in
that
crumpled
,
flattened
state
which
time
and
much
wearing
impart
.
She
made
a
very
average
looking
shop
-
girl
with
the
exception
of
her
features
.
These
were
slightly
more
even
than
common
,
and
gave
her
a
sweet
,
reserved
,
and
pleasing
appearance
.
It
is
no
easy
thing
to
get
up
early
in
the
morning
when
one
is
used
to
sleeping
until
seven
and
eight
,
as
Carrie
had
been
at
home
.
She
gained
some
inkling
of
the
character
of
Hanson
’
s
life
when
,
half
asleep
,
she
looked
out
into
the
dining
-
room
at
six
o
’
clock
and
saw
him
silently
finishing
his
breakfast
.
By
the
time
she
was
dressed
he
was
gone
,
and
she
,
Minnie
,
and
the
baby
ate
together
,
the
latter
being
just
old
enough
to
sit
in
a
high
chair
and
disturb
the
dishes
with
a
spoon
.
Her
spirits
were
greatly
subdued
now
when
the
fact
of
entering
upon
strange
and
untried
duties
confronted
her
.
Only
the
ashes
of
all
her
fine
fancies
were
remaining
—
ashes
still
concealing
,
nevertheless
,
a
few
red
embers
of
hope
.
So
subdued
was
she
by
her
weakening
nerves
,
that
she
ate
quite
in
silence
going
over
imaginary
conceptions
of
the
character
of
the
shoe
company
,
the
nature
of
the
work
,
her
employer
’
s
attitude
.
She
was
vaguely
feeling
that
she
would
come
in
contact
with
the
great
owners
,
that
her
work
would
be
where
grave
,
stylishly
dressed
men
occasionally
look
on
.
“
Well
,
good
luck
,
”
said
Minnie
,
when
she
was
ready
to
go
.
They
had
agreed
it
was
best
to
walk
,
that
morning
at
least
,
to
see
if
she
could
do
it
every
day
—
sixty
cents
a
week
for
car
fare
being
quite
an
item
under
the
circumstances
.
“
I
’
ll
tell
you
how
it
goes
to
-
night
,
”
said
Carrie
.
Once
in
the
sunlit
street
,
with
labourers
tramping
by
in
either
direction
,
the
horse
-
cars
passing
crowded
to
the
rails
with
the
small
clerks
and
floor
help
in
the
great
wholesale
houses
,
and
men
and
women
generally
coming
out
of
doors
and
passing
about
the
neighbourhood
,
Carrie
felt
slightly
reassured
.
In
the
sunshine
of
the
morning
,
beneath
the
wide
,
blue
heavens
,
with
a
fresh
wind
astir
,
what
fears
,
except
the
most
desperate
,
can
find
a
harbourage
?
In
the
night
,
or
the
gloomy
chambers
of
the
day
,
fears
and
misgivings
wax
strong
,
but
out
in
the
sunlight
there
is
,
for
a
time
,
cessation
even
of
the
terror
of
death
.
Carrie
went
straight
forward
until
she
crossed
the
river
,
and
then
turned
into
Fifth
Avenue
.
The
thoroughfare
,
in
this
part
,
was
like
a
walled
canon
of
brown
stone
and
dark
red
brick
.
The
big
windows
looked
shiny
and
clean
.
Trucks
were
rumbling
in
increasing
numbers
;
men
and
women
,
girls
and
boys
were
moving
onward
in
all
directions
.
She
met
girls
of
her
own
age
,
who
looked
at
her
as
if
with
contempt
for
her
diffidence
.
She
wondered
at
the
magnitude
of
this
life
and
at
the
importance
of
knowing
much
in
order
to
do
anything
in
it
at
all
.
Dread
at
her
own
inefficiency
crept
upon
her
.
She
would
not
know
how
,
she
would
not
be
quick
enough
.
Had
not
all
the
other
places
refused
her
because
she
did
not
know
something
or
other
?
She
would
be
scolded
,
abused
,
ignominiously
discharged
.
It
was
with
weak
knees
and
a
slight
catch
in
her
breathing
that
she
came
up
to
the
great
shoe
company
at
Adams
and
Fifth
Avenue
and
entered
the
elevator
.
When
she
stepped
out
on
the
fourth
floor
there
was
no
one
at
hand
,
only
great
aisles
of
boxes
piled
to
the
ceiling
.
She
stood
,
very
much
frightened
,
awaiting
some
one
.
