WAS SHE SELFISH?
Vo— —
Cupid Thought Not and Was
Right.
By M. DIBBELL.
“The game isn't worth the candle,”
said Jocelyn dejectedly. “We posi
tively can't live on in this way; the
ends simply won't meet—] must go
to work at something.”
“But what can you do, child?"
queried her sister. “You have never
learned anything but housekeeping
well enough to teach it, and nobody
wants lessons at that.”
“Well I might at least keep somes
body's house.”
“Oh Jocelyn, is it not better to
starve respectably than to go out as
a common servant?”
“It certainly is not. 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

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

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

best thing on earth I could do. You

I was beginning to wonder how 1

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

“When you don’t have

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.

The two women became

efforts to interest and amuse her em

when she saw in Mrs. Norton a
marked improvement both in health
and spirits.
The weekly visits to Miriam wera
faithfully paid, and the elder sister
seemed cheerful and contented when
they met; so it was a shock to Joce-
lyn when one day in late spring she
received a call from Oliver Craig

ta task by him for leaving her sister
to die of loneliness,
When she tried to defend her action
he waved aside her explanation, but
his next words opened the mental
eyes of his bewildered listener,
“The only way out of it is for Mi

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.”
