CHAPTER VII.

WE CANNOT CHOOSE IN ALL THINGS.
When Barbara went ont into the
darkness after that scene with Miss
Dillingham;, il was more than the
darkness of physical night that OPP
pressed her. She thought she realized
with "A vividness more real than she
had ever before experienced the gulf
that separated her from the young
minister of Marble Square church.
With almost grim resolve she said to
herself: 81 have dreamed vain
dream. | will give myself up now to
my career. Whatever ambition have
shall center about the possibilities OF
service. He can never be anything to
me. 1t would risk all his prospects in
life, even if-even if-he should come
to care for me" Her heart failed at
the suggestion, for there mad been in
timations on the part of the young
preacher that Barbara could not help
interpreting To mean at least real in
terest in her and her Ger.
But 10, it is 40, pos Jle!" she said
positively us She WalEcd on. His life
is dependent on social conditions that
he must observe. For him to ignore
them must mean social loss and pos
sibly social disgrace. In- minister of
Marble Square church care f.r hired
girl! Make her his wife, barbara
trembied at the thought OF he sacred
word which she hardly whispered to
her heart. Even If she were as well
educated and well equipped for such a
position as any young woman in his
parish, still, nothing could remove the
fact of her actual service. And
service" Barbara bitterly said to her
self as she neared home, service is no
longer considered a noble thing 1t is
only beautiful young women like Miss
Dillingham;, who have nothing to do,
who have the highest place in society.
A girl who is really doing something
with her hands to make home a sweet
er, more peaceful spot is not regarded
by the world as worth more than any
other cog in necessary machine. So
ciety cannot give real service any place
in it's worship. IL is only the leisure
of idle wealth and fashion that wins
the love and homage of the world"
"And the church, too" Barbara con
tinued in her monologue, after she
had hidden her mother good night and
gone up to her rOom. "rhe church
too, in its pride and vainglory is ready
to join the world in scorn of honest
labor of the hands" She recalled al
the real and fancied sights and re-
buffs she had endured in the church
and from church people since going
out to service, and for few minutes
her heart was hard and bitter TOWARD
all Christian people. But gradually
as she grew quiet, her passion cooled
and she said to herself in short
prayer: Lord, let me not offend by
| judging too hastily; and if am to lose
The Iola register., 1901-11-01

out or my nfe my hearts desire for
love. do not let me grow morose or
chiding. Keep me sweet and uncom-
planning. How else shall I help to
make better worlG?" 4 few tearl
i'll as she prayed this prayer, and
after few minutes quiet she felt
more like her natural, even-tempered
self.
"If / am going to stay a servant"
she said, with some calling back of
her former habit, 81 must learn what
God thinks of service. / shall need
all I can get out of His word to
strengthen me in days to come" She
had made n collection Of her passages
relating to service, and tonight she
added to it from one of Pauls let
ters, dwelling on the words as she
read them aloud Servants, obey in
all things them that are your mas
ters according to the flesh; not with
eye service, as men-pleasers, but in
singleness Of heart, fearing the Lord !;
whatsoever We do, work heartily, as
unto the Lord, and not unto men;
knowing that from the Lord We shall
receive the recompense of the inher-
itance; ye serve the Lord Christ. For
he that doeth wrong shall receive
again for the wrong that he hath
done; there is no respect of persons.
Masters, render unto your servants
that which is just and equal; know
ing that ye also have a Master in
Heaven"

Dillinghams passed them with what
seemed to Barbara unusually severe
faces. The light of the afternoon sud
denly went out. She was no longer
college graduate, an educated
young woman the equal, in every
thing but wealth, of this glorious
creature she had just passed.; she was
only hired girl, a servant. And the
gulf that yawned between her and
the minister was too deep to be
bridged. 1t was folly to be happy any
longer. Happiness was not for her;
0nly ambition was left, and even that
might not be possible If this social
settlement plan was to be involved in
hers, and
81 beg pardon, JMiss Clark, but did
I hear you say the other night at
Mrs. Vane's that you or your mother
had known the Dillinghams before
you came to Crawford?"
Mr.. Morton was coming to the re-
lief of her embarrassment.
"No, mother is related to one
branch of the family. Mrs. Dilling-
ham has been very kind to me since
that evening"" she added. 81 have
not been courteous, hardly, in re-
sponse to her invitation"
TITS very nice family" Mr.. Nor
ton said, quite tamely.
"Yes, Miss Dillingham; is a remark
ably beautiful person, don't you
think?" Barbara was not quite her

an introduction committee and made
welcome to the society, the committee
giving all strangers topic cards and
other printed matter belonging to the
society, and introducing them to one
another as well as to members.
1t was one of the new methods pur-
sued by this committee to ask all
strangers to sign little card giving
the address of the newcomer, so that
some one of the society might call dur
ing the week, and, if necessary. act as
escort to the next meeting. One OF
these cards was given to Barbara; and
in a spirit of perversity, growing out
of her feeling regarding her position,
she signed her name and put under it
the words: House servant at Mr..
Wards, SO Hamilton street"
1t was altogether unnecessary for
her to be ostentatious with her posi-
ton; but she was not perfect, and felt
an unnatural desire to test her recep-
ton right in Mr.. Morton's own society.
A few of the young people in the Mar
BILE Square church knew who she was
and What she was doing, and with few
exceptions she had been treated with
treat kindness, no discrimination
whatever being made. But the ma jor-
ity of the young people did not know
her, and tonight she was plainly
dressed, her face was bearing marks of
the WEAKNESS of the strain of the last
months work, and it was not surpris-
ing that she was suspicious of every
suggestion of slight.
When the committee and the other
strangers finally went out and mingled
with the others in the large room, Bar.
bara thought she detected distinct
coldness to her. She was certain her
name and her position had been whis
pered around among the young people
| As she afterward found out, she did
the committee an injustice, as they hac
not told anyone of her work But shs
was left alone i'm the midst OF all the
others, and in spite of her habits OF
| self-control and her previous expert
ences she began to feel bitterness
that was contrary TO her sweet ma.
ture.
She looked around the room, and no
ticed Miss Dillingham; talking with 1
group of older girls who had begun tC
come in the society little while after
Mr.. Morton's call to Crawford; ant
she went over to her and spoke to her
And then il was that Miss Dilling
ham, who was not perfect any NOR,
than Barbara, did as wrong a social ac
as she had ever done in her life. Sh,
simply nodded TO Barbara without say
ing word, and went on talking with
out introducing her friends to Barbara
or taking any other notice of her.
Barbara instantly stepped back ava
from the group, while her face glove
and then paled. AS she turned sharpl,
around to go out of the door which wa
near, Mr.. Morton confronted her. Il,
had witnessed the little scene.
You will always be welcome in on
Endeavor society, Miss Clark" he said
while the color that mounted to hi
face was as deep as hers.
81 shall never come again so long a
/ am a servant" replied Barbara, in
tone as near that of passion as she haC
ever shown to him. And with the word
she opened the door and went out int
the night, leaving him standing ther'
and looking at her with look tina
would have made her tremble if sL
had lifted her face to his.
