Bessie, as all agree, was looking at the
picture last Sunday, when she distinctly
saw the face of her father. pale and hag-
gard, gazing at her through that of her
mother. The girl greatly startled, gazed
at it for a moment, and gradually the face
disappeared. Bessie did not msntion tn:
matter then. It was a delusion, she
thought, but on the following night she
looked a gain Mt the likeness, and as she
stood in front of it the face OF her father
appeared for the second time. The girl
ran breathlessly into the appointments OF
Mrs. Lewis Graf, on the foor below. She
told her remarkable story, al d Mrs. Graf
who is superstitious, believed her. The
next evening both stationed Themselves
bsfore the the painting and waited. Sud
