Explore "Cope in Double Danger" by Henry Blake Fuller on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Meanwhile Cope and Lemoyne refined daily on the details of their new ménage and applied themselves with new single-mindedness to their respective interests. Cope had found a subject for his thesis in the great field of English literature -- or, rather, in a narrow bypath which traversed one of its corners. The important thing, as he frequently reminded Lemoyne, was not the thesis itself, but the aid which it might give his future. "It will make a difference, in salary, of three or four hundred dollars," he declared.
Lemoyne himself gave a few hours a week to Psychology in its humbler ranges. There were ways to hold the attention of children, and there were forms of advertising calculated to affect favorably the man who had money to spend. In addition, the University had found out that he could sing as well as act, and something had been said about a place for him in a musical play.
