Roy" said his mother sharply. you
have had all the salad that is good for
you today. Faith, take it out"
Faith removed the dish, and Roy
made face and said What have you
got for dessert: Apple pie:''
Mrs Fulton rebuked him again. and
Faith went out with the dishes She
cleared the cloth deity and then
brought in the dessert, which, to Mas
ter Roy's great satisfaction, happened
to be delicious apple pie made from
one Of Dororhy's own recipes
This is what call pie" said Roy
as he attacked 8 segment which repre-
sented about quarter of the circle

he asked Faith anxiously- Il like it
cold for dinner"
Faith nodded and Mrs. Fulton look
ed stern1y at her boy But she WAS
pleased with the new girl so far When
the lunch was over and Faith was
clearing everything away, Mrs Fulton
and the children were talking about
her in the par1or.

ordinary hired girl She seemed to me
like lady" said Alice.
You needn't Try to spoil her, Mrs
Fulton spoke with a near approach to

books together and started of to

know how to boil eggs vote for the
new girl every time"
That afternoon Faith continued with
her work conscious that so far she
had pleased the family. When MI
Fulton came home and sat down to the
dinner. he was agreeably surprised and
joined with the rest in praises of the
new girl
Il think you have found a treasure"
said Mr.. Fulton And if so we ought
to pay her 81 week She is q superior

Fulton I'VE can afford to give that to

which meant comfort and pleasure in

At the close Of the week Mrs Fulton
felt -, We'll satisfied that she told Faith
she veuIti give her 81 4 week to re-
main. Faith accepted the offer. and in
her room that Saturday night she took
account Of her surroundings with con-
siderable satisfaction

than I was in the studio she said to
herself Nearly all l make now is
clear gain get my board room and
expense If l went into a store at S.
or Sc a week and had to pay my board,
couldn't save anything"
She was right about that, for she had
come away from home well provided
with clothes and her expenses. outside
OF board and room and car fare, had
been almost nothing.
There was one thing that troubled
her now, however.
She had not yet written home Of her
present place OF work She said to
herself that she ought to tell her moth
er frankly how it all came about and
that resolve seemed to give her peace
OF mind. She would write home to-
morrow, Sunday afternoon.
But when Sunday came several
things happened through the day to
disturb her.
In the first place, Mrs. Fulton in
formed her that they were to have
company for half past 2 dinner, and
Faith knew that meant 8 hard fore
Moons work
1T doesn't seem right for people to
have company dinner on Sunday she
said to herself as she cleared away the
breakfast dishes and proceeded to
wash them while the family went into
the parIor for Sunday morning pray
ers-
The kitchen door had been left lit
tie aiar, and presently Faith could
hear the piano. Mr. Fulton never had
family worship during the week He
was too busy to stop for it in the morn
ing But Sunday he held to the custom
which his own father had strictly OBJ

ed out through the dining room into
the kitchen and Faith paused as she
wiped dish, and to tell the truth q
very hot tear dropped down into the
| dishwater. She had not been asked to
unite with these Christian people in
worship, and for a moment an angry,
hard. rebeIl1ous spirit stirred in the
girl as she listened to the familiar
hymn It was one the family at home
often sang at prayers on Sunday.
