‘‘Jdl carry" you,'* she’ said

She unbuttoned her coat and

: It wasn’t an easy trip, that,
hut Marjorie was very determin
ed when she started a thing, and
at las'., breathless and aching in
erery muscle, she arrived at the
Itouse, a little behind Ted and his
burden.
i- By the time Ted arrived with
the hand cart the sisters had Bon
nie established on a hard little
bed on the floor in the kitchen.
“What has Ted been after,
anyway?” Betty suddenly asked.
“I told him to bring that first
.^|^*nd then go get a truck and
^*%ring all the rest of the things.”
“Oh!” said Betty breathless
with relief. “Oh! Won’t that be
wonderful! But—what a lot we’ll
owe you.”
Then they heard the front door
open and heavy footsteps tramp
ing in, and the girls flew to catt-
tion Ted, and set But to watch
the door.
“I found Bill hanging round
with nothing to do. so we brough
rytbing,” explained Ted in a
mumble to Marjorie.
'Tt proved a bit hard to subdue
Bill’s voice and step, but Betty
was vigilant, and Bud was de
lighted with his office of door
keeper. and it didn’t take long
after all to marshall in the poor
bits of household comfort that
-had gone out one by one to sup
ply necessities. When the door
shut at last on Bill, and they
heard his truck drive away, the
brothers and sisters looked at
one another in tjie garish light of
a single stark electric bulb swing
ing from a long wire in the par
lor ceiling and drew breaths of
relief. Suddenly Betty dropped
down in a big shabby faded chair.

“Do you mean.” asked the

There was such pain and pride

Betty looked up and met his
eyes wistfully, and Marjorie
watchin.g saw the glance, and
weary, slender young shoulders
shaking with the sobs shp would
not allow to become audible.
Marjorie was by her side in

isn’t it?” he said. And then he
heard a step behind him. They
all turned and there stood their
father staring at them all in
her new hopes and plans?
“Father—” she said earnestly,
and did not realize how natural
ly she had called him that, “it

money. I didn’t know whether
you wanted me or not. or wheth

There was the catch of a sob
in her voich as she finished, and
a mist in her eyes. Kven young
Bud paused In his chewing for an
instant and looked at her sym
pathetically.
Tlien the father came out of
his sorrowful daze.
“Want you?’’ said he tenderly.
“How we have wanted you! ITow

a minute she went on again.
