“
Now
,
then
,
”
he
said
,
leading
the
way
up
the
foyer
into
the
theatre
.
If
ever
there
was
dressiness
it
was
here
.
It
was
the
personification
of
the
old
term
spick
and
span
.
“
Did
you
ever
see
Jefferson
?
”
he
questioned
,
as
he
leaned
toward
Carrie
in
the
box
.

“
I
never
did
,
”
she
returned
.
“
He
’
s
delightful
,
delightful
,
”
he
went
on
,
giving
the
commonplace
rendition
of
approval
which
such
men
know
.
He
sent
Drouet
after
a
programme
,
and
then
discoursed
to
Carrie
concerning
Jefferson
as
he
had
heard
of
him
.
The
former
was
pleased
beyond
expression
,
and
was
really
hypnotised
by
the
environment
,
the
trappings
of
the
box
,
the
elegance
of
her
companion
.
Several
times
their
eyes
accidentally
met
,
and
then
there
poured
into
hers
such
a
flood
of
feeling
as
she
had
never
before
experienced
.
She
could
not
for
the
moment
explain
it
,
for
in
the
next
glance
or
the
next
move
of
the
hand
there
was
seeming
indifference
,
mingled
only
with
the
kindest
attention
.
Drouet
shared
in
the
conversation
,
but
he
was
almost
dull
in
comparison
.
Hurstwood
entertained
them
both
,
and
now
it
was
driven
into
Carrie
’
s
mind
that
here
was
the
superior
man
.
She
instinctively
felt
that
he
was
stronger
and
higher
,
and
yet
withal
so
simple
.
By
the
end
of
the
third
act
she
was
sure
that
Drouet
was
only
a
kindly
soul
,
but
otherwise
defective
.
He
sank
every
moment
in
her
estimation
by
the
strong
comparison
.
“
I
have
had
such
a
nice
time
,
”
said
Carrie
,
when
it
was
all
over
and
they
were
coming
out

“
Yes
,
indeed
,
”
added
Drouet
,
who
was
not
in
the
least
aware
that
a
battle
had
been
fought
and
his
defences
weakened
.
He
was
like
the
Emperor
of
China
,
who
sat
glorying
in
himself
,
unaware
that
his
fairest
provinces
were
being
wrested
from
him
.
“
Well
,
you
have
saved
me
a
dreary
evening
,
”
returned
Hurstwood
.
“
Good
-
night
.
”
He
took
Carrie
’
s
little
hand
,
and
a
current
of
feeling
swept
from
one
to
the
other
.
