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."
