Bessy went back home, her little heart as
cold as lead in her bosom. .
She had refused Norton Van Brugh she
said No to Mr.. Sinclair. in spite Of Aunt
,Jemima's knowing progndstica tions; and
people hogan to wonder if pretty Bessy H.y
we're going to he an old maid after ali.
Why duesn't he write to me. or send me
at least q word to show that he has not utter
ly forgotten me?' thought Bessy.
Why doesn't she answer my letter 2
thought Paul.
So the world wagged on, until Mr.. Estcott
came hume from the far-of Aowery land--not
indeed with the fortune of which he had
dreamed in such sanguine fashion, but with
q sufficient competence to live we'll and COM
fortably in place as modest as his native
village.
1t was stormy November evening, with
threatenings of snow in the chilly air, and q
low wind stirring the last withered leaves
upon the boughs. when he alighted at the
station, looking almost into the eyes of Bessy
Hay, who had come to the post ofice to ask
once again for the letter that never came.
How seldom are our visions realized
Bessy had dreamed thousand times Of
meeting Paul Estcott, but never in such a
way this.
'Paull' she quavered.
'Ah 7 said Paul, duffng his stylish fur
travelling cap, i hope you are well !
For he did not exactly like to call her
Mrs. Sinclair as yet.
The ed stains OF sunset had almost ia
ded out of the sky when he overlook her,
about hundred yards from the station.
His heart smote him when he saw the
look OF meek endurance in her lace.
Are you alone 'Bessy 2
ayes, Paul
Il suppose, he said, with an effort, that
| must call you by some new name now 2
Call me Bessie Hay,' she answered qui
etly.
you are not married ?
"No, Paulp
He drew long breath that was almost
like sob.
Aunt Jemima said-But, Bessy, why
did you not answer my letter z
why did you not write to ME Paul?
Before they had reached the old Hay
farm, where the currant bushes had long
since lost their leaves, and the garden-wall
was already beginning to be whltened with
the falling snow fakes, the mists of doubt
aud misunderstanding we're all cleared up,
and Bessy Hay had promised to forgive
and forget all her lovers seeming neglect.
'Van Brugh was scoundrel,' uttered
Paul, but without his aid could scarcely
have been in position to marry you. 1t
has been lonc time to wait; but it is all
right, Bessy, after all
It's like sotry, Paul. said Bessy, where
people 90 through all sorts of trials and

"STICk TO YOUR BUSH"

Mr.. Morgan was a rich, and also good
man. The people of the town respected
him, sent him to parliament, and seldom
undertook anything without asking his
advice If school house was to be built,
the plan had to be talked over with him
Widow P asked him what she should
plant iu her field; farmer S. always
got bis advice in buying cattle, aud Mis-.
R consulted him about bringing up
her boys
When asked how be was so successful,
NJ. Morgan said, II will tell you how it
Was. One day when was lad, party
tf boys and girls were 60 10 distant

to 60 with them, but was fearful that my
father would not let me. When told him
what was going on, and he at once gave me
permission to go with them, l could hard
ly contain myself for joy, and rushed into
the kitchen and got big basket. a, asked
mother for luncheon. had the basket
on my ann, and was going out of the gate
when my iather call me back. He took
me by the hand and said in gentle voice ::
Joseph, what are you going for, to pick
berries or to play 7"

Then joseph, l want to tell you one
thing it is this: When you 6ud pretty
good bush, do not leave it to iud better
one. The other boys and girls will iun
about, picking little here and a little there,
wasting great deal OF time, and not get
ting many berries. If you do as they do,
you will come home with an empty basket.
II you want berries, stick 10 your bush.' !"
went with the party, and We had a
capital time. But it was Just as my father
said. No sooner had one found good
bush than he called all the rest, and they
lett their several places aud ran eft to the
new found treasure Not content more
than minute or two IN one place, they
rambled over the whole pasture, got very
tIied, and at night had but very few ber-

ar Occasional Correspondent
CLEVELAND, August 3I.-You may
not believe it entirely, but I've seen zee
this morning. True, il was on the but
ter plate, on the breakfast table, but to
look out Of doors one would almost i'm
agine it cold enough to find ice any
where. The thermometer is down stairs
or ! would give you the temperature. In
all seriousness, however, an Overcoat
would be quite q luxury, for the wind is
not simply cold, but uncomfortably cold.
The most, if not all the Memphians,
intend remaining here until October,
and some till November. One excellent
and handsome lady from your city not
only follows her "bathing ticket" but
She went out yesterday and took a
SHOWER tath" on her own hook. Result
not yet developed.
Now, permit me to renew the sugges-
ton made in my last letter, that some
enterprising individual establish a bath
ing house in Memphis, where the vapOr,
the Turkish, and all the baths may be
bad at reasonable price, and at all
times. Citizens of Cleveland GENE out
here every afternoon, and pay one dol
lar each for the Turkish, and fifty cents
for any other bath, and the home pat
rOnage constitutes M incOnsiderabie
portion Of the income Of the establish
ment. A genteel bathhouse land Of
course Memphis would permit no other,
on Poplar, Beale, fernando or some
other street convenient TO the street-cars,
but on the great thoroughfares Of bust
ness, would he a great public conven-
renee D benefit and, believe, a source
Of considerable profit TO the Droprietors
'IHp nGW TTaNnrgUnrEE 49,. -
Grafton in Memphis, would very greatly
diminish the expense Of such an estab-
lishment and render it easy Of oUaratin0
and its existence, known to ali the sur.
rounding country, would attract liberal
patronage from every direction. II niohf
not pay at once, but / am satisfied il
would pay CeU as o as ii became
generally known. Then. think, too.
what a preservation Of health, and re-
member that ian ounce Of preventive
is worth a pound Of cure and YOU may
form something like an adequate idea Of
the importance of this suggestion and
the value of such an establishment I'm

sidered, and If it can be gotten up in no
other way let us form a Joint stock COM
pany and raise a sufficient capital to
start a irst-class institution. Her6um
