“Yes, dear,” she said, "imt you know
that would be impossible now.” "I
know it, mother,” said Belli, witli a
sigil, "but, goodness til«1, 1 do hope tlmt
it won’t be like this lorever! there,
multi, i, forget tlmt; I'm a little pig to
cure about it at all!" But iter moth
er didn't forget. She knew how lutrii
it was for her daughter to go without
tlie pretty tilings that she had been
accustomed to have.
You see, Mr. M.iri in laid heard ills
country's call a short time before ami
Imd gone to Join tlie colors, leaving Ids
w ife and six teen-year-old daughter to
get along on tlie amount lie had in the
bunk, after many years of saving. It
was a small amount, too. imt lurge
enough to keep ills wile and daughter
in comparative comfort until lie should
return, Imt without tlie luxuries of
life.
No one kqew when tlie fight for
humanity would be ended, and until
it was, Mr. Marvin, now Captain Mar
vin, would stay in France. But tlie
little family lie had left were proud
of the husband and father who was
over tlie sea, lighting tlmt they mi it

serving n little, that he might have
tlie necessities.
At tlie luncheon table next

a farm up state a ways and would be
;in-e to hire It. Ip for the summer. Why
couldn't Beth be one of that “help?”
MotIn-r could go up for a visit.
Finally Mrs. Marvin decided to give
Beth’s plan a chance, and wrote tlie
letter to Unde Jim. Then, a few days
later, came an answer. Why, of
course, they could come, and lie would
be more than glad to do wlint In- could

a week later, Mrs. Marvlu ami Belli
were oil tlieir way to tlie farm.
Early in tlie full they came back
home after tlieir long summer in tlie
country—Belli tanned and tired, Imt
luippy, and Mrs. Marvin satisfied tlmt
lie summer imd been spent to lhe
best advantage. And wlu ti she bulked
into Bi ill's smiling face she was umr«
than glad tlmt slie had consented Io
lier plan to earn extra money, and she
thought how many pretty tilings tlmt

girl.
Therefore, she was greatly sur-
pflsi’d, one day n short time later,
when she suggested that they go down
town and do some shopping, with tlie
money Ih-tli hail ennu-d. to have Beth

mother looked at her in amazement:
"No, mother, not now. I—I hope yon

Tlie money

“There, it's nil right, motli<-r," said
Belli. "I Just couldn't tell you, you
