His back was turned on the old miserable scraping and wait- ing; the glorious future opened out radiantly before his eyes. This was. the life he wanted. A soft young woman, rich food and drink, com- fort, luxury, freedom. In his trembling passion he drank, 12- thinkingly. The girl wondered cynically if he would make a beast of himself when drunk. Tant pie! She knew how to deal with men- no matter who they were, what their condition.
