:. Cnn,t Won 20 with me. Bert 2n

Cant you go with me. Bert ?"
Pm afraid not tonight, pigeon" was the
slightly hesstating answer.
Well, never mind, " she said, dropping
her wistful eyes. and loosening her shawl.
After a few more careless, polite words. the
young gentlemen went out together, but Mr..
Herbert fingered.
He spoke some pleasant words to Bessie.
and she tried to answer him with a steady
voice, but she was thinking how long and
lonely the evening would seem in her little
room upstairs.
You are disappointed, " he SAID gently.
"Oh, | am foolish / know. but my brother
is always SO busy and happy with his friends
he does not think of me-"
There is a church near here" he said re-
ferring to her note: 3" only the next corner.
Let's take q peep Mt it,"
She drew up her shawl again and smiled
gladly, not thinking there was any lack of
conyentionality in his proposal.
They went out like two children, and he
offered her his arm.
The church was decorated, the sweet breath
of flowers filled the air and the deep tones of
the organ seemed to invite them To enter.
1t was early set and few people were there.
They went in quietly and took II seat in u
vacant pew. %.
Something in the hushed and holy charm
touched Bessie's homesick heart, and drop
ping her face upon her hands, she wept

So she drew further away from him and
only answered his merry : ~Good-morning,
little pigeon" or careless Goodnight. sis,"
with q pleading smile or q grateful nod.
But this Sunday she was so tired and
lonely, she wondered II she could not win
Herbert's attention for a little while.
They did not even sit at the same table in
the long dining-room, for Herbert had grown
intimate with q party Of young gentlemen
who boarded there, and there were no ladies
at their table.
But thinking of the dear old home, and of
how long 1t was since they had talked to-
gether, Bessie wrote her brother q little note,
'and, stealing down to the dining-room Just
before il was time for the bell, she laid It
close beside his plate.
As she took her own place beside old Mrs.
Vanders she failed to notice that some of the
people at the other table had changed places,
and q strange gentleman. with q stern. pale
face, had taken her note from under the edge
Of his plate.
He read the name on the outside, Her

into his vest pocket.
While waiting for the dessert he took the
little missiye out again, and, screening it by
an apparently careless arrangement Of hiS
napkin, read: "

BESSIE.

1t was a warm, bright day, and pretty Bes-
s!e Willis looked l~ongingly out from her win
dow in the great hotel with a homesick feel
ing at her heart.
q" wish I could go out" she said softly to
herself. ~ wish 1 dared go out alone. for
Herbert never thinks of me any more than he
would of q statue set in o niche"
Herbert was her brother, lodging in some
remote room of that same big house, and
sometimes she would scarcely see him for
days together.
They were all alone in the world, this
bright young sister, and her m~erry-hearted,
careless brother.
There had been a little property left them
when their parents died, and as soon as
Herbert was twenty-one years of age, he sold
II, and, taking the proceeds, hurried away to
London, with his sister in charge, only too
eager 10 make his fortune in the world.
He thought he could easily obtain some
pleasant and lucrative situation. But situa-
lions were not 30 easily found, and prudent,
practical little Bessie knew that their small
fortune was wasting slowly week by week.
She knew it was useless TO talk Of this to

Herbert had gone to work in earnest, his

Bessie fretted no more about the future. But

A Fair Trial

OF Hoods SarsAparilla for scrofula. salt rheum. or any
affection caused by impure blood. is sufficient to con-
vince any one Of the superior and peculiar curative
powers Of this medicine, The following statement is
right 10 the point:
my daughter Mary was afflicted with scrc!ulous sore
neck from the time she was ~ months old till she became
0 years of age. Lumps formed in her neck, causing
great annoyance. and two of them. after growing tn the
size Of a pigeons egg, broke and discharged. One be-
came a running sore for more than three years. We
thought we would give Hoods SarsApArlla n thorough
trial. We began with IL in January, and In a few
months, after she had taken five bottles, all suppuratiOn
had ceased. We then waited three months, when. as Il
new lump was beginning "a form, We again gave her
Hoods ShrsApArllA. After she had taken less than two
bottles the lump and all indications Of scrofulA had en-
tirely disappeared, and now she seems 70 be a healthy
child. ~. S. CARLULE. NAuright, n. j.
