if she was pretty; that was no reason
why she should let half a dozen fel

on their elbows, chatter and smirk
and sinue over the counter, cadets
and officers, wild young fellows, who

was only a common cavalry soldier,
but then be had been in the service
a pood nianv years now, had an ex
cellent character and a good trade
at bis back, and, morover, bis father
bad died not long since, and there
was the cottage all ready for Jennie
to walk into, and they might settle
down at once if she'd only be sensi
ble. Jennie acted as shop-woman
for her M.ster, Airs. Evans. A very
poor little shop it was, very small
and badly stocked, for Airs. Evans
had onlV managed to get a few
0 jiouiidV worth of tilings with what
had been subscribed for her in the
garrison after the fever had carried
oil her husband. The speculation
answered pretty well at lirst, for
many of the ollicers' wives, knowing
what an indutri-us woman "Airs.
Evans was, made a point of buying
1 .1 . 1 . ii-rml.l ff in
their tapes and cottons ana sticks 01
sealing-wax of her. Then Jennie's
pretty face was seen behind' the coun
ter, aud the shop was filled from
morning to night with ofUcers and
frisky young cadets, and the original
customers took flight though Tdrs.
Evans did not know it, for she. be
lieving the I ! -ir.ess to be safe in the
keeping of Jennie, worked hard at
the dressmaking (she had three chil
dren to support, and the shop alone
would not do it.) 0
The ollicer.s" were not profitable
customers, for they only went tollilt
with Jennie under the excuse of
buying a penny paper, or perhaps
asking for a time-table. Jennie made
the most trim and pretty and oblig
ing of s'lop-woinen, and the place it
self was always a pattern of neatness:
but the oiiicers' wives did not care to
go and buy their thread where they
were c identl v intei TUpthii? a flirta
tion, and so the business continued
to fall oif', and Mrs. Evans begin to
get quite uniia-Mpy about it. Jennie
pretty, khul-hearted, thoughtless
Jennie had no idea that she bad
ny thing to do with it. or she would
have sent every one of her admirers
off at a pace, tint would have aston
ished tin ra. She had been only too
delighted, after her brother-in-law
died, to come from Dovenshire and
live with sister at Woolwich not
only because she was ve y fond of
her sister, but also because she had
wished many times to see John
AVeare again. She had made his ac
quaintance when her brother and he

imentwere stationed at l'lymontlT,
atir'i she hal paid them allying visit
with her father. John hud ttdd her
) then that he was tired of the service
and wanted to settle down, and she
inwardly cthought that he could do
no better than ask her to settle with
him. lie had been very, attentive
when site came to Woolwich, and
gradually established l.iin-elf onothe
fooling of u lover till he found the
shop always tilled with the oiiicers
and cadets. At lirst he was shy of
appearing before his superiors, then
lie got jealous and at last angry, for
he felt and knew that they meant her
no good, and besides it was doing
real injury to thej business of the
shop. .t last he spoke in his mind
and told the coquettish Jennie what
he thought, ami was snubbed for his
pains, o o
" If yon thiuk I don't know how
to take euro of myself, Mr. "Weare, '
you are much mistaken., and I don't
want any o ic to tell 111 j what's right
or wrong. I know for myself,"
" Well, Miss Jennie, I didn't mean
to giv" oli'ence. ol only told you
what I thought." o
"Then yon might have "kept your
thoughts to yourself," she said with
i little toss of her head " unless
they had been nice ones," she added.
He heard the aside, and picked up
his courage.
' It's nu fully hard, too, when cue
that cares for you really can't get
near you," he pleaded. Just then
Jennie caught sight of Captain Mo
Gee, a t.ill and handsome man, with
long whiskers an.l a red nose, coin
ing in the direction of the shop, witli
a big buivli of lloy,ers in his hand.
She had heard John Weare's last
words, Imt she was secretly of the
opinion that he ought to have come
up to the scratch before, so she
thought a little jealousy would do
him frood.
"Oh! here comes Captain McGeo,
she said in a delighted tone.
" Well, he's just the biggest black
leg in the s m v.c ', Jennie, and if yon
take my advice you'll send him off
sharp."
I bel'evo von are jealous, Mr.
Weare, a: d telling stories about the
captain; he is always very polite to
me, an.l she smootnetl her pretty
hair and tu ranged the triilcs on the
con liter.

" And be is bringing me some
llower.T.'"
" Now look here. Jennie, are you
going to t die them?"
" Of course I am."
' Well, then, good-by."
"Guol-by." she laughed. Of
cjurse she knew he wonldu't go.
"Jennie, he'll be in directly, and
I shall be od', but you must choose
between ldm and me. If you are
going to ket-p on talking to him I
shall never come in the place again,
so which is it to be?'
" The captain."
"Ibit I am not joking. I'll never
see you again."
" No more am I joking, so gooo
bv." " Good-bv" and he went.

If sbeYl cared about me she'd

The idea of not being cared for
was not cheerful. That night he
strolled carelessly by the shop, but
on the opposite side of the way.
Nothing was to be seen of Jennie.

Tue very next morning jwuu
Weare walked deliberately into the
shop and asked for a penny newspa
per, and be had the felicity of being
Served bv Mrs. Evans.
" Quite a stranger, Mr. Weare,"
she said, but that was the only re
mark she made, and for the life of
him he could not screw up the cour
age to ask for tier sister.
That night John W&ire was mis
erable. nit
" She can't care a rush for me,
he thought, and marched all over
town, and nearly to Qrtenwieh and
beck, in his excitement.
The next day was a lucky on? for
John, lie came acj oss 13ibbs. Eibbs
was Mrs. Evans' eldest boy. No one
knew what his real name was, or why
lie was called liibbs; but he was nev
er called anything else.
"lbbbs," said John Weare, "come
and have some fruit," and he carried
him oil' in triumph to the cottage,
and stuffed him with gooseberries
till he couldn't move, and with black
currants till his mouth was as black
as' a- crow. Then he carried him in
side and stood him on the table, and
sat down before him.
" How old are yon, UibbsV"
He though it better to begin the
conversation with a question.
" l'ive .uid a half. Is that your
sword up there?"
" Yes. Who gaveyou those bronze
sho":i, UibbsV" " o
Now be knew Jennie sad given
them to him, but he wanted to hear
her name.
"Auntie. She's going away soon f'
he added. " liot me look at your
sword now."
ot
" Where's she going?"
he
:d in
consternation.
" 1) voivshire.
your sword."
" Whv is she
"Do let 1110 trv on
going?" he asked
with a sick feeling at his heart.
" She's ill, I thinly and she
wavs crying now : one day s!u
s al-
was
crving over her silver thing von gave
her, and kissing it like anything."
The "silver thing" was a little
heart of about the size of a shilling,
which he had bought at Charleston
Fair last October, and timidly re
quested her to accept.
John Weare jumped up and show
ed Ibbbs his sword, ami carried him
on bis back all over the place, and
entreated him to have more black
currants in his delight. Uut Bibbs
declined.
" Aunt Jennie's going to bring me
some from Eltliam to-night," he said.
So Jennie was iroing to Latham,
was she! John Weare took liibbs
home, and on his way presented h,im
with a woolly lamb that moved on
wheels an.l squeaked, and a monkey
that went up a stick on being gently
ashed.
"Crying over her silver tiling!"
said John Weare. "I'll go and hang
around the Kit ham road till I see her
rind lrr liAr n-n-ilon "
...... 0 ..v.. ...... D
And lie went, and Jennie met him,
and pouted, and declared she hadn't
once thought of him, and then broke
down and cried. And John begged
her pardon, and declared that he had
been a heartless brute; and then Jen
nie contradicted him and said it was
all her fault, aud told him how Mrs.
Dnnlop, the colonel's wife had one
day walked in aud told her, in the
kindest possible manner, that" she
was spoiling her sister's business, for
the ladies who had been interested
in her welfare kept away because of
Jennie's ilirting propensi ies, which
tilled up the shop with idle o'lictrs,
who were always in the way; and
how she had been so ashamed and
wretched, aud so cut up at the deser
tion of John Weare, that she had de
termined to go back to Devonshire.
"lint you won't now?" he said, as
thev lean. ed cner the style leading to
the'Eltl am fields.
"You'll get nady at once, and
we'll bo married as soon as possible,
before the fruit in the garden is
.SJK.il t?" o
It t ok a long time to talk her into
it (aU)ut three quarters of an hour),
but then she w as very happy at heart
and chattered like a "young magpie,
and told John hww she bad snubbed
Captain McGeo, and had thrown all
his llowers out of tlie window.
" And it reallv was all through
that dear liibbs that vou way laved
mi to-night !" she asked.
" Certainly."
" Whv, but for him I might never
have seen yon again!"
" Perhaps not."
" I'll givr6 liibbs a regular hug
when I get home,' she thought. And
she IM ; and the day oetore ylie was
niiriied she bought him a rocking-
horse, which he delights in to this
day. Casseir J'tmih I'jitzine.
