When
he
reached
Forty
-
second
Street
,
the
fire
signs
were
already
blazing
brightly
.
Crowds
were
hastening
to
dine
.
Through
bright
windows
,
at
every
corner
,
might
be
seen
gay
companies
in
luxuriant
restaurants
.
There
were
coaches
and
crowded
cable
cars
.
In
his
weary
and
hungry
state
,
he
should
never
have
come
here
.
The
contrast
was
too
sharp
.
Even
he
was
recalled
keenly
to
better
things
.
“
What
’
s
the
use
?
”
he
thought
.
“
It
’
s
all
up
with
me
.
I
’
ll
quit
this
.
”
People
turned
to
look
after
him
,
so
uncouth
was
his
shambling
figure
.
Several
officers
followed
him
with
their
eyes
,
to
see
that
he
did
not
beg
of
anybody
.
Once
he
paused
in
an
aimless
,
incoherent
sort
of
way
and
looked
through
the
windows
of
an
imposing
restaurant
,
before
which
blazed
a
fire
sign
,
and
through
the
large
,
plate
windows
of
which
could
be
seen
the
red
and
gold
decorations
,
the
palms
,
the
white
napery
,
and
shining
glassware
,
and
,
above
all
,
the
comfortable
crowd
.
Weak
as
his
mind
had
become
,
his
hunger
was
sharp
enough
to
show
the
importance
of
this
.
He
stopped
stock
still
,
his
frayed
trousers
soaking
in
the
slush
,
and
peered
foolishly
in
.
“
Eat
,
”
he
mumbled
.
“
That
’
s
right
,
eat
.
Nobody
else
wants
any
.
”
Then
his
voice
dropped
even
lower
,
and
his
mind
half
lost
the
fancy
it
had
.
“
It
’
s
mighty
cold
,
”
he
said
.
“
Awful
cold
.
”
At
Broadway
and
Thirty
-
ninth
Street
was
blazing
,
in
incandescent
fire
,
Carrie
’
s
name
.
“
Carrie
Madenda
,
”
it
read
,
“
and
the
Casino
Company
.
”
All
the
wet
,
snowy
sidewalk
was
bright
with
this
radiated
fire
.
It
was
so
bright
that
it
attracted
Hurstwood
’
s
gaze
.
He
looked
up
,
and
then
at
a
large
,
gilt
-
framed
posterboard
,
on
which
was
a
fine
lithograph
of
Carrie
,
lifesize
.
Hurstwood
gazed
at
it
a
moment
,
snuffling
and
hunching
one
shoulder
,
as
if
something
were
scratching
him
.
He
was
so
run
down
,
however
,
that
his
mind
was
not
exactly
clear
.
