DREAMLAND ADVENTURES TIIE HUNTED IWNTERS ' Uy DADDY Things You'll Lovo to MaJco M&foalneHolcjeT', THE DAILY NOVELETTE Jenny's New Job nj- nusBKLii n. olayto.v Jenny was roamlm? back and forth between the tables, rearranging; the ptp DM1 and Haiti on o-.ii, ovenlng up the el!e of paper napkins on another. Jt wasn't part of her Job Bess, the wait ress, wos supposed to attend to that hut It gave Jenny a pleasant feeling of eroprietorshlp to boo that things woro Just right before tho rush of custom era began from tho succession of oorly 'morning boats duo to dock presently at their piers along tho. waterfront. Jenny's regular Job was over behind the cash register, where at tho moment Mr. Cooper himself,' rotund and Jovial, was ongaged In conversation with Pedro, the fruit man from below. Suddenly he paused, her hand on a catsup bottlo which needed refilling. Had sho heard arlght7 "My nephew, Fred, Is on his way home been gone two years. Likely to drop In most any time now.' Jenny resumed her task, but her heart was like lead within her. Sho had been hired with tho deflnlto understanding that the position was hors only until the arrival of Fred, Mr. Coopers nephew, from overseas. And Jenny had grown to i,. fc.i- wnrk thn ntlmuiatlnir smell Of toffee and hot crullers; tho shifting atreams of transients who drifted in on tl'r way to and from the steamers; the pleasant glvo and take of small talk between herself and Mr. Coopor whon that gentleman dropped In after closing 'hours to balance accounts. Yes, her heart was leaden. Inexperienced In any ether line of work, not prepossessing, and getting on toward thirty-five, she knew she would tod It difficult to. land any ether Job at all, let alono ono so pleas ing. After Pedro's departure, Jenny went at once to Mr. Cooper. She must know at once how long a tlmo sho had in which to hunt nround for employment "Xr. Cooper." sne Ugan, "II hap- ; pened to overhear yon bay that your nephew Is coming homo right away. And I'm thinking I'd better bo hunting around for a now place." "Bless my soul I" Her employer re tarded her out of his mild bluo eyes Wth surprise. "Why why. that would raver do!" Then, as tho obvious wisdom ef her words penetrated, he looked thoughtful. "I had forgotten all about the fact that you've got his Job. well. we'll have to see. my dear," he concluded paternally. "Time enough when Fred tele here." . . With that Jenny had to be content. But In the days that followed, every opening of tho door took on a new slg wftcance. The entranco of Fred would he the cue for her exit Then ono morning Mr. Cooper camo In, his face aglow, and with a guileless simplicity proceeded to Bet forth the Idea which had come to him overnight. ' "You're a downright smart girl. Jenny, he began, leaning across tho cigar caso and regarding her Intently. "And that nephew of mino Is as fine a chap as ever lived and very respectful of my wishes. About your age, too, And ho has never married. Now, between you and mo, I u like to see him sottlo down with some body I'd approve of. It's up to you, By dear!" , , Ko thnt nil Vior flmnlnver'B solution I Marriage with his nephew! Tho first feeling of Indignation melted beneath tho Are of a sudden thrilling hope. Long ago the had laid away the thought of mar riage. Now she brought it out and lin gered over it lovingly. What a won derful thing It would bo to marry, and particularly to marry a man who was connected with this little business of hlch bho had como"to feel a part! Lato one evening Jennv sat at tho oeek copying tomorrow's menus. The aupper rush was long slnoo over. Only a man and a girl a bridal pair, Jenny had decided dallied In tho corner over their cuts of apple pie. Interestedly she patched them, Invosttng them with that halo of romance she droamed might soon aurnount her own humblo head. . Suddenly she straightened briskly and became all business. 'In came Mr. Cooper, turned to speak to her, then Jtarcd at tho man who was advancing from the corner with outstretched hands. "Freddie I" "Uncle Ed I And hero's my wlfo that I married in France I" Jenny, In a dazo, saw tho Blip of a girl swallowed In her employer's ca pacious embrace. On tho Instant had vanished her hopes, her dreams. Bho bent over her desk, oblivious to the rest of tho conversation. "When wo didn't seo you around, wo decided we'd have a bito to eat and wait till you dropped In. You seo, I remembered your old habits." Fred was explaining. Then tho three settled them selves at a table and gavo themselves up to reminiscences of tho last two yearn. It was after Frod and his wlfo had jnjno that Jenny walked ovor to Mr. Cooper. "I guos3 I'll leave at tho end of tho week," she said. "I'm not ono to bo keeping a soldier from getting his old Job back." Mr, Coopor looked up quickly. Then he removed his spectncles, took out a largo silk handkerchief, and began to polish them laboriously. 'Didn't you hoar Fred telling how ho thought he'd rather got an outdoor Job somowhero his wlfo was UBed to tho country?" "No." said Jenny, "I didn't" "But that Isn't all," ho continued. 'I had It all flxod up that Fred was to marry you, but tho more I thought about It the mora I didn't llko tho Idea. You'ro a downright smart girl, Jenny, and al though Fred was a nice enough chaD. I discovered why, hang It all, Jenny, I want you myself I" Jenny grasped a chair back for sup port A moment before she had been bo reft of love, of friends, of occupation. Now, ahead of her stretched a rosy suc cession of days In tho little restaurant legitimately sharing In Its ownership, companlonably forwarding Its pros perity. "What's It to bo. my dear?" asked Mr, Cooper, clearing his throat nervously. But only from the depths of his com fortablo shoulder did Jenny find herself nblo to tell him "Yes."
