I have a good healthy appetite every day of my life, and I intend to do my best to produce the three satisfactory meals which Providence intended me to have. Besides, a housekeeper is an important person nowadays—she over: gees the doings of everybody else.” “Where do you expect to find such | a responsible position? They don’t | go begging?” “Now my great secret shall be di vulged,” Jocelyn answered trium. | phantly. “I had a long talk with Mrs, Derment before she returned to tha city this fall, and she quite approved of my idea. In her letter which came today she says that a dear friend of hers is in such poor health that she {8s no longer able to look after house: | hold affairs, but cannot bear to think "of giving up her home. Mrs. Der. ment told her about me, and was au thorized to make me a proposal. Tha | salary is generous, and she is sure 1 will like Mrs. Norton. So can you suggest any reason why I should re | fuse such an offer?” Miriam only gasped, as she gazed into the eager face of her energetic young sister. “You dear old Miriam—you just | ean’t help knowing that it is the very best thing on earth I could do. You | can live here in peace and comfort and come over to see me if you get X “You Don't Know the Meaning of the Word.” lonesome, I have kept the best part of the last—Mrs. Norton lives over on the highlands, only thirty minutes on the trolley.” Relief succeeded dismay in “That will be con: at hand. eyes. venient to have you so near I was beginning to wonder how 1 could exist with you away off whera I could never see you. You are a brave child, and I believe you could not help succeeding at whatever you undertook.” The week following, Jocelyn Newell started for the Norton home to as. sume her duties as its housekeeper “Remember I shall come to see you every Thursday afternoon,” she called back to Miriam, as the big suburban trolley started. Jocelyn received a cordial welcomé from Mrs. Norton who had taken a liking to her young housekeeper af their first meeting. “I am so glad that I am to have someone who can take charge of everything,” she said with a relieved sigh. “Now I can rest in peace, and rest seems to be a perpetual demand with me nowa days.” “When you don’t have think about except how to and strong you will find yourself ed before you know it. I am to see that you do get well—that is one of my duties as housekeeper, Jocelyn’s cheerful voice gave her employer a pleasant thrill. Mrs. Norton was alone, and her ili health was largely the result of sor her hus anything to get well rest: roing going row over the loss of both band and an only daughter.

I have been want. ing her to do It for ton years. I am not going to sit quietly and see her pine away before my eyes—I want you to tell Miriam that It {8s her duty to be my wife, not to keep a home for you as she has always insisted. You would be as dear as a sister to me and could have a home with us always if you would.” Jocelyn gave a MNttle laugh. “You nearly scared me to death, but now I gee through your deep laid scheme. You know I have always liked you, Oliver. Why didn’t you ask me to help you before, instead of keeping your courting of Miriam secret all this time? To-morrow is my day for visiting, and I shall surely lay down the law to my dear old goose of a sis. ter. She shall be happy, even if 1 have to force her into it.” “What a dumb-head I have been,” remarked Oliver disgustedly. “I never dared speak to you on the subject for fear you would go into hysteries—Mir- fam was sure the mere suggestion would break your heart” He gave Jocelyn’s hand a brotherly squeeze as he took his departure. Jocelyn kept her word, and on the day following gave Miriam a severe lecture on her duty to the man who had loved her so long and waited for her so patiently. Before she left, a brother-in-law for herself had be- come an admitted possibility in the near future. On returning to the Norton resi- dence after this interview, its house- keeper found unusual signs of ex- citement, “Oh, Miss Newell,” was the greet- ing of Mary the parlor-maid, “Mrs. Norton's nephew has come, and they have been talking together over an hour. Mrs. Norton said put him in the blue room, and he would stay a long time she hoped.” “I am glad he has come, Mary; it will do Mrs. Norton good and we must ' make him comfortable.” Jocelyn hast- | ened to her room, feeling to her own surprise decidedly blue. | Removing her wraps, she threw a shawl about her shoulders and slipped out of doors. Mrs. Norton and her nephew were evidently settled for the evening, and a lonely feeling came over the young housekeeper as she heard their voices in passing. After rambling for some time in the | moonlight, Jocelyn seated herself on a bench by the boundary wall, and faced the situation. “What a selfish thing I am! Just because Miriam is to be made happy in spite of herself, and Mrs. Norton has the only per: gon she has on earth left to love come to brighten her up, I fall into the dumps! It’s a nice way of practicing the Golden Rule.” But this of its ef t, for to Jocelyn's disgust self directed lecture failed | THE BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, PA.
