"But I shall mind. You never did steal in your life, and
it's a shame to say you did," retorted Elfie.
Elfie was still crying when Susie got up from her knees,
and she did not lift her head for some time—not until the
fire was blazing under the tea-kettle and Susie had begun
to get the tea ready.
"I don't know nothing," said Elfie with a sigh. Only a day
or two before, she had told Susie she did not want to learn
any more, and would not go to school.
"Yes, I'll go," said Elfie; "they'll know me there, but you
won't let 'em turn you agin' me, will you?" she added.
Susie thought for a minute or two, and then she said, "I
think God sent me, Elfie."
"Perhaps he did," said Elfie, with drooping head, "for I'd
made up my mind never to come back to you any more
when the policeman took me. I thought it was all up then,
and I might as well forget all you'd told me, for it only made
me feel bad and miserable."
"And I'll get some steps to do, and mind the baskets
again," said Elfie.
"Oh yes, do; God will help you, I know," said Susie.
And her heart beat high with hope as she showed Elfie
how to wash cups and saucers; for of this necessary
accomplishment, Elfie was quite ignorant.
After these had been put away, and their faces washed,
they set off for school; Elfie feeling rather shy at going
there again, and Susie quite exultant at the thought of
taking her.
It was the first time Susie had ever heard Elfie's proper
name, and she hardly knew who was addressed, until she
heard her companion say, "Please, I'd like to come back, if
you'll let me come with Susie."
"We must try to be like him," said Susie; "it's hard work
sometimes, and we don't seem to get on a bit, but mother
said we must never give up trying."
"You're trying, I know," said Elfie; "and I'll try too. I'll
begin to-morrow."
"I think you have begun, Elfie," said Susie, kissing her;
"and we'll help each other to keep on trying."
"And the other girl had not either, I suppose you'll tell
me," said the grocer.
"And pray too; you must not forget that. God will help
you if you ask him," said Susie.
Two meals a day were all the girls could afford; and so
it was arranged that the potatoes and turnips should be
boiled for tea, to save buying bread. Susie knew how to
cook them, for she had seen her mother do so many times,
and she promised to have them all ready by the time Elfie
came home; for she was going out again to try and get
something else to do.
After she was gone, the tears came into Susie's eyes
again. Somehow it seemed that she was bearing the
punishment of Elfie's wrong-doing, while Elfie herself was
more than successful in her feeble attempts to be honest. It
was hardly fair, she thought, and for a few minutes her
tears flowed fast; but gradually there came into her mind
some words of her mother's, about the work God intended
her to do in the world, and she thought that this was the
way He intended her to help Elfie, perhaps; and that
thought made her more calm.
Susie did not take any notice of this, and before their
meal was over Elfie began to look better tempered; and by
the time the things were washed and put away, she was
ready to go to school.
The next day she did not earn a single penny at the
market, and Susie only earned twopence, although she was
walking about all day; and when they returned home late in
the afternoon, tired, cold, and hungry, and Susie said they
could only have a piece of dry bread before they went to
school, Elfie felt herself rather ill-used. She might have
helped herself to some turnips quite easily in the morning,
and that would have furnished them with a nice hot meal;
but she had resisted the temptation, believing that she
should get some work and be able to buy some.
But the work had not come, and they could only spend
a penny of what Susie had earned, for the other was
needed to make up the rent. They had got a week or two
behind, in spite of all their efforts to keep it paid; and the
landlord had said they must leave, if some were not ready
on Monday. The next day was Saturday, and they hoped to
earn some more; but they could not be sure of this.
CHAPTER VII.
CONCLUSION.
ELFIE had probably never heard the maxim, "Honesty is
the best policy;" and if she had, she certainly would not
have believed it. She knew how much, or rather how little,
she could earn by fair work; knew, too, that some of her
companions would laugh at her for trying to be honest; but
she did not know how hard the struggle would be until she
fairly tried it. It had been easy enough to slip into the habit
of pilfering, but it was not so easy to break it off, when once
it was commenced. Again and again did she wish that she
had never taken the first wrong step, never formed the evil
habit of taking what was not her own, and sometimes she
feared she should never be able to break it off now.
Things grew worse and worse with the two girls as the
winter advanced. Often they were without fire and without
food, except the market refuse Elfie brought home. Susie
had tried again and again to get a place such as the
grocer's, but no one wanted a girl, it seemed, or at least no
one wanted her. It must be that everybody believed her to
be a thief, she thought; and Elfie thought so too, and that
made her so bitter that she said one day, "I won't try to be
honest any longer: everybody says I am a thief, and so I
may as well be one; it's better to steal than to starve."
"No, he has not; I'm sure he has not," said Susie; "he is
'our Father,' and so he can't forget us."
"Well, he don't mean to help us then," said Elfie. "It's all
my fault, I know; I was a thief, and that's why he won't
have anything to do with me; I'm too bad, I know."
But Elfie shook her head. "I can't bear to see you
hungry, Susie," she said with a choking sob; "and it's hard
to see the potatoes and turnips there in the market, and
hear the men say we are a set of little thieves, and sure to
help ourselves, and then come away without taking one.
You don't know how hard it is."
It was true enough. Even Susie did not know the full
bitterness Elfie was daily enduring in her efforts to do right;
but that the struggle was a hard one she fully understood,
and she said, "Only Jesus knows just how hard it is, Elfie;
but he won't let it be more than you can bear. He will send
us some help soon. I'm sure he will; perhaps you'll be able
to earn a lot of money to-day."
Susie saw this, and pushed them towards her. "You eat
'em, Elfie—I can't," she said.
"No, I'm not hungry, only sick," said Susie. And, unable
to sit up any longer, she laid herself down on the bed. Elfie
waited a minute or two, and then took the apple and crusts
across to her; but Susie took no notice of her repeated
entreaties to eat, and at last Elfie grew frightened. She put
the apple down, and bent over the pale, inanimate face,
and kissed the cold lips.
"Susie's bad, sir; she can't eat the apple I've brought
home for her."
"I think I will come with you, and see about these girls,"
said the minister; and he and the teacher followed Elfie to
Fisher's Lane.
Elfie darted off, but when she laid the money on the
counter at the shop, she saw that instead of a sixpence the
minister had given her a half-sovereign. What riches it
seemed to her! How much she could buy with all this
money! And instinctively her hand went over it as it lay on
the counter.
Elfie nodded. "I couldn't help it," she said, "when I saw
Susie; all she had said about our Father's love, and what
the Lord Jesus had suffered to save me from my sins, came
back to my mind, and I was obliged to throw the money
down."
After she had gone, the two girls sat talking of all that
had happened; but it was evident Elfie was greatly bowed
down at the thought of her attempt to rob the minister.
THE END.
