"We'd better be going up there," observed Carrie later in the
afternoon.
The rooms which Mr. Withers displayed to Carrie and Lola were
three and bath--a suite on the parlour floor.  They were done in
chocolate and dark red, with rugs and hangings to match.  Three
windows looked down into busy Broadway on the east, three into a
side street which crossed there fake oakley sunglasses.  There were two lovely bedrooms,
set with brass and white enamel beds, white ribbon-trimmed chairs
and chiffoniers to match.  In the third room, or parlour, was a
piano, a heavy piano lamp, with a shade of gorgeous pattern, a
library table, several huge easy rockers fake oakleys, some dado book shelves,
and a gilt curio case, filled with oddities.  Pictures were upon
the walls, soft Turkish pillows upon the divan footstools of
brown plush upon the floor.  Such accommodations would ordinarily
cost a hundred dollars a week.
"Oh, lovely!" exclaimed Lola, walking about.
"It is comfortable," said Carrie, who was lifting a lace curtain
and looking down into crowded Broadway.
The bath was a handsome affair replica oakley sunglasses, done in white enamel, with a
large, blue-bordered stone tub and nickel trimmings.  It was
bright and commodious, with a bevelled mirror set in the wall at
one end and incandescent lights arranged in three places.
"Do you find these satisfactory?" observed Mr. Withers.
"Oh, very," answered Carrie.
"Well, then, any time you find it convenient to move in, they are
ready.  The boy will bring you the keys at the door."
Carrie noted the elegantly carpeted and decorated hall, the
marbled lobby replica oakleys, and showy waiting-room.  It was such a place as
she had often dreamed of occupying.
"I guess we'd better move right away, don't you think so?" she
observed to Lola, thinking of the commonplace chamber in
Seventeenth Street.


"Fine.  But aren't you a success! Dear, oh! All the papers
talking about you.  I should think you would be just too proud to
breathe.  I was almost afraid to come back here this afternoon."
"Oh, nonsense," said Carrie replica oakleys, blushing.  "You know I'd be glad to
see you."
"Well, anyhow, here you are.  Can't you come up and take dinner
with me now? Where are you stopping?"
"At the Wellington," said Carrie, who permitted herself a touch
of pride in the acknowledgment.

"Oh, are you?" exclaimed the other, upon whom the name was not
without its proper effect.
Tactfully, Mrs. Vance avoided the subject of Hurstwood, of whom
she could not help thinking.  No doubt Carrie had left him.  That
much she surmised.
"Oh, I don't think I can," said Carrie, "to-night.  I have so
little time.  I must be back here by 7.30.  Won't you come and
dine with me?"
"I'd be delighted fake oakley sunglasses, but I can't to-night," said Mrs. Vance
studying Carrie's fine appearance.  The latter's good fortune
made her seem more than ever worthy and delightful in the others
eyes.  "I promised faithfully to be home at six." Glancing at the
small gold watch pinned to her bosom, she added: "I must be
going, too.  Tell me when you're coming up, if at all."
"Why, any time you like," said Carrie.
"Well, to-morrow then replica oakley sunglasses.  I'm living at the Chelsea now."
"Moved again?" exclaimed Carrie, laughing.
"Yes.  You know I can't stay six months in one place.  I just
have to move.  Remember now--half-past five."
"I won't forget," said Carrie, casting a glance at her as she
went away.  Then it came to her that she was as good as this
woman now--perhaps better.  Something in the other's solicitude
and interest made her feel as if she were the one to condescend.
Now, as on each preceding day fake oakleys, letters were handed her by the
doorman at the Casino.  This was a feature which had rapidly
developed since Monday.  What they contained she well knew.  MASH
NOTES were old affairs in their mildest form.  She remembered
having received her first one far back in Columbia City.  Since
then, as a chorus girl replica oakleys, she had received others--gentlemen who
prayed for an engagement.  They were common sport between her and
Lola, who received some also.  They both frequently made light of
them.
