JOY OF LIVING.
By MARY WINIFRED FORD
The young fo!lt In NorUiwood
Wiled him grandma." whllo ilie older
fclkn rallrd him "Old Nut."
(trandoa hnd d-Hdod loog agoiliat It
aa high time for him lo njr god-l"
to this old world.
"Well, don't li'mii ni. Ornre,H
grandpa heard KM mil, tpr lituliaod,
pay. "If It wasn't fr your futlter we
t-ould be where It U litre and warm,
tut you know the trip la too much for
Mm, and then he inltit he aMIo; "
That was all grmidoa heard, hut hi
Kuln-law'a word wrung liU very
)enrt, and not once hul often he heard
Ma daughter roino'iilo and My tlnit
tf It wasn't for father'' hp could do
tli! or ahe could do that.
He turned to look out the window,
and there, smiling In at him with two
fat anowhalla In her hand, wa Kdna,
the young girl next door, who had
taken quite a fancy to that old fnce
)ooklng out of the window every dny
as he looked In. Her cheeka were
tony and her brown eye Hnrkllng,
and Into grandpa'a hcHrt came a new
ltff aa Mie mulled mi liloi.
She came rloo to tlm window and
ruhhed her noso on (he pane, and,
laughing happily, cried: "(irandpa,
they have given me pcrnil.tsfou to come
In and alt with you If you care to
tiave me," and at lid moment Grace
Wine Into the room.
"Come right In, Rdna, I'm an re
father would enjoy having you," and
f-rnndpa wan ao happy all he could do
wan to puff all the harder at the old
)!e, his heart beating faat to think
that after all aomeone would care to
it and chat with Jd
"Oh, grandpa. It, Is Junt too wonder
ful for words out today I How 1 wUh
j-oii could came anowshoelng with uiel
The glrla have gone off far the week
end and I have to go shoeing alone.
Io you know, grandpa, If It wasn't
for you looking out of the window
every day and smiling ao nicely at me,
1 M'ould almost die of tmieaomeue'ii.
True, the girls are here off and on,
, but they have such wonderful time
without me. They they don't w-want
me, grandpa 1 I'm only lu the w-
ay '
'Why, what Is the IrouMe, llttlo
iiilfsy? When 1 m:iw you out there,
laughing aay, I nver dreamed you
were unhappy. Now, toll grmidpu all
bout It ninyb I ciiii help you."
"Well, they nil hnve awei'tbeurtii,
grundpn, you know "
"Oh! I aee Frank n"l the Uliod
beys, I often wondered why you were
alone ao much."
"W-well, they il il m't want me, a I
would be an extra one. ami well,
foiiietlnit s I wUli I were dt-iid. I ( '-
terrible to think no one waul you, and
then, grandpa, mamma and papa 1
annoy them. They say I'm loo lo:Mter
ouh, and oh! I'm ao lonesome. Since
the snow mine, and I can't alt with
you on the verunru, I've been too
lencaome for vonW. I wl-.ii you could
fome out."
"Yea, little mlnay, It N hard to think
that you are not welcomed, even lu
your own home, but I am sure thut
your dear mother and falher welcome
you, only they do not realize that you
are very lonesome. They are probably
very huv with their problem and
never dream that you need their love
no very much. Some day you wlil
meet a nice young hoy who will want
you very much, but be hasn't hap
pened ubuig just yet, that's all.
"Juat you wait, mlaay dear, and
then you will have the bet of them
all," and grandpa puffed ever so vig
orously at his pipe, and In the circles
f ftiuAe he saw the one he wished
, Kdriu to see and love.
'ixever mind, grandpa, about my
trouble. Don't think any more about
It. am happy to have Just you, and
) do love you very much," aud ahe
iMitrly knocked grandpa's p'i'e ck'Hii

Miriam Hlm tevant before the Joyful
eicbaiige of her attendant was made.
And ti e brown nursemaid was not
brown at all as to face. -but Just a
curious autumn leaf sort of person,
with leaf brown hair and darker brown I

eyes ami CriUlsOII-lear coloring. A
I.hi.i.v. eheerr .omoaiilon. who cbaused
ui.i-acuiiiiisly Sliriam s prosy routine or
days Into a fairyland existence. And
w ho suet eoded where the former dic
tatorial custodians had failed In quell
ing the child's self linportam e and
banishing her gliMim. Miriam was
well aware of I he Interest she occa
sioned as heiress, aware too, of the
awe with which Miss I'slmcr had re
garded her upon this account.
The new little t'raula Brown, who
dubbed herself the brown nursemaid,
hud no regard for money at all. It
was Just a neeesslty, she said, and one
need not be proud of Its, possession
because It couldn't buy happiness.
It was all put t of the game of grow
ing that the (ioldllocks aud (he brown
inn lit played together. Life was no
longer dull lu I'ncle Roger's big house.
t'ncle Itoxer wni 1'addy's bachelor
brother, who had become her guardian,
and guardian, too. of tho fortune which
lie and she alone shared. Miriam nad
been a problem to Uncle Roger, until
Ursula came.
Ursula drifted In most fortunately
one morning wheu Miss Palmer and
Uncle Roger were having a row, be
cause returning home unexpectedly at
very late hour the night before, be
had found his niece deserted. Miss
I'atuier locking the nursery door be
hind her, hud gone on to some amuse
ment of her own. Ursula Brown stop
ping to see If Miss Miriam Sturtevant
might not possibly require a musical
Instructress, was moved to apply for
Miss Palmer's position Instead, and re
vived It. Things had gone smoothly
since then.
Uncle Roger was unpleasantly sur
prised when she refused to awaken
Miriam late lu the evening, that she
might help him while away an hour of
boredom.
I might be able to please you with
song," stiid tho young 'woman.
Mie did; Roger, Untying, wondered
all at once concerning this young wom
an's past her home life, how she hud
happened to come to them. Rut when
I e eugeriy requested another song, she
as firmly refused ns she luid refused
Miriam's coming, nod passed swiftly
on up to her own quarters.
Women more beautiful than this
inlet litl'e attendant had sought his
ompany ; young women w hose favor
one might b proud to win. But, like
Coldllorks. Roger was under tho fnlrv
harm. What spell did she weave, this
silent purveyor of happiness?
You know." Coldllocks told him.
during one ot their confidential tulks,
"the brown maid came out from a
green empty wood to seek her fortune.
She has told me all about It. The wood
sas grefii vviili memories, you see, of
tliose who had lived with her there
her family. And It wtis einiitv. be-
auso they had gone away forever.
"So she climbed the steep hill, which
was really Just our main street, and
s.io could find no fortune there. So
she came on and on, to the top of the
mountain, which Is our owu beautiful
uveuue. And at the top was the. caa-
tle our house, Uiu-le Roger with me,
the Princess Goldilocks lust needlnc
to he cared for. So the brown mnhl
of the wood stayed on ut the castle."
Roger Sturtevnnt smiled as he sank
back uinoug tlie cou h cushions.
"I see." he said.
When Ursula came hurriedly to put
her charge to bed, she passed by the
couch all unseeing, following Miriam
to the fur shadowy corner.
So they sat together, the brown
nursemaid nnd Goldilocks.
"Tell me." begged the child, "the
rest of the story of the mtiid of the
wood, I rsula. Hid she go on living for
ever lu the castle at the too of tho
hill, or did a handsome prince come
to carry !:-r away? Was there no
pr'nie at all in the mstle on the bill,"
us'.; eil tlie child dtsapioinle!ly.
r."j'T t o il I hear tl.e girl's breath
ati'h in a little broken lauh.
"Yes, there was a priu e," die an
swered, holding Miriam close, "a really
wonderful prune, who lad iraseled
many lauds mid w'.iote pockets were
tided Willi gold. M.iuy beautiful prin
cesses sought to begoTiie bis bride, for
he was good and true, as be was hand
some. Kven the old sertants loved him,
and he was us gentle us n mother
to one little girl. It was but natural
then, thut he should hso seek to be
kind to the poor maid of the wood,
i liMKl-iilght Goldilocks," tlie voice end
ed nhrupt'y;
"Why." said tho child, "why Ursula,
there are tears on your cheek."
l'.'i.tiid the (ao came quickly a
nan's tall ligure. Uncle Roger, bend
ng, kissed tenderly his owu small
liece. th'-n more tenderly, the other."
"I will in Ui tl.e r.tory," he taid.
