but l must bid you good morning" And
the friends separated.
Nettie Austin was an orphan and heir
ess, and at home in the best circles OF
OweusbOro'. Clever, cultivated and bril-
liant all called her; handsome, ton, she
was; tall, well-formed, with heavy braids
of dark hair, and hazel eyes whose depths
could hold the saddest, sweetest, dreami-
est look possible.
OF course she was admired by the op-
posite sex. There was but one of them
whom she had ever cared for, and that
was Louis Stab. She had loved him so
long that she could not remember a time
when he was nothing to her. His cir
cumstances were far from being opulent;
and he did not pretend to move in Owens
boro's best society. Those who pretend
ed to know, called him the finest looking
man in town; and there was but one
voice in regard to his eminently sterling
qualities. These things, coupled with
his genial, whole-souled nature, made of
him man as liable to win woman's
heart as any about him.
He had worshipped Nettie Austin afar
off since they were children together.
In his boyi>h days he had looked forward
to time when he would offer her a name
made famous by the wonders he would
achieve in science. He had given all that up
now; for he had been left fatherless, with
legacy of little brothers and sisters to
care for.
II will never be able to win her now,"
he had said then, "but / shall always love
her"
A few evenings after Netiie had heard
of Mr.. Staib's intention to leave the place
he called upon her. A few minutes after
she had heard Of his presence in the par
Tor, her hand was clasped by him in
friendly greeting.
II have called to bid you good-by,
Miss Austin"
"Then it is true that you are going
swaya'
eyes, am going"
II think for our old friendships sake
yon might have acquainted me with your
intention before"
"Why, Miss Austin" as a surprised,
joyous look came into his face, II had no
idea you would take the least interest in
my affairs"
''Wby do you 60, Mr.. Staib1 Will
your business prosper better9"
"Not as we'll, fear"
"Then why do you got"
pardon mel cannot tell you"
How he wished he dared tell her that
he could not stay where he was liable to
see her day after day in the company of
man whom the world called her accept
ed lover! He wanted her to know that
he loved her. But he would not risk the
scorn of the stately, beautiful woman
sitting so near him.
~ shall make fool of myself if stay
i've minutes longer" thought Stab; so,
rising, he held out his hand, saying. al
will not detain you longer. Miss Austin,
and will bid you good-by.'
Neftie knew that every drop of blood
had l~ft her face; for q moment she wa-
poueriess 10 speak She had catered
