WAS UK TItUU ?
Sho stood on the topm ist point of a higl
rock, her disordered yelluw tresses blowing
in bl u try ringlets about her pretty flushed
cheeks, her lur, dark ejesall aglow with an
ticipated fun. Sho held her straw hat in her
hand, swinging it listles.ly by its scarlet
string?; but upon the naer approach of u
gentleman, she Hung it deliberately into the
sea.
'Get my hat, Clive,' she commanded, as
ho came up to her, panting from his brisk

artl
Tho young man clutched frautical'y at the
hat, as it was washed aihore by the incom
ing tide. Hut it was carried beyond his
grasp, and it took some exertion for him to
keen his balance upon the slippery sand.
fter two or three fruitless endeavors, dti-
ring which his fair tormentor looked on
w mirthful, mocking eyes, he succeeded
in rescuing it, and once more stood beside

'I am afraid you got wet,' she said.
'Looks rather like it,' he good uaturedly
replied. 'But now, Beauty, I want my re
ward.'
'What reward?' she aked demurely.
'It is but a small thing to ask,' he said.
'Only a decisive aimverlo the question I
nave so ollcn asked you in vain,'
She looked cnqucttlshly down a, him.
'Suppoe I do not give it?'
He miawed hU blonde momtaxhe. Sup

imploringly into her rosy, tantalizing face.
'I know that I have my way to make in tho
world, Beauty, and that you are the petted
heiress of a gooJ old nun; but, were our po
sitions chnuged, I would uot cau9e you one
heart paog, though you were heartless, or
love you one iota less, though you were
poor.'
Tou are not friendless,' declared tbe girl,
indignantly, 'and you will not always be
poor. But, oh dear! you aro so awfully trag

tho blues.'
'Retribution,1 replied Clive, looking half
playfully, half earnestly, at tbe pretty, so
bered face. 'You will give me my answtr
now, Beaut)?'
'In just five minulcs,' said she, setting
herself down cooly to meditate on the mo
mentous question of her whole futuro life.
Those five minutes were like so many
hours to Clive Winthrop, fraught as they
were with an agony of hope and fear. If
any one had told him then that he would he
untrue to this girl he would have laughed
the Idea to scorn. Tho happiness of his
life depended on one little word from her
lips. At last she looked up at the pale,
anxious face.

What a white heat of excitement tbcre
was iu the word.
She dropped her oves under his eager

And yet
'I expected to seo Miss Ohelton,' he
stammered, 'I was not aware that there was
another lady In tho house.'
'I am Miss Chelton was the grave re
ply. 'You Miss Chelton,' he exclaimed Incred

have lost my Identity. But perhaps it'a not

relief, 'but I never heard Beauty speak of a

'Heauty?' sho said, inquiringly.
'We are great friends' he said, colorinc
slightly. 'lis only a nickname that I have
given her.'
'Obi' sho said. I underjtan 1. May I ask

'How embarrassingly abrupt Bhe is,'
thought Clive, as he gave tho desired infor

inwardly at the delay.
'I am afraid you will be disappointed,'
she answered, 'because sho has gone abroad
for an indefinite time.'
All the expected light died out of his
face.
Gone awayl It was indeed a bitter reve
lation.
'Sho left a letter iu my charge, however,'
continued his enlightener, 'which is directed
to a person of your name.'
The young man took it eagerly, and, ex
cusing himself, went over to a distant recess
of the drawing room, where be might read
it unobserved. It was very short:

Clive pressed the missive to his lips agait
and again,
'My poor darlingl' be said, softly, as a vis
ion of disordered yellow hair and a merry,
vivid face rose up before him.
Then he went back to the dignified figure

lue visits, at tint rather irksome, became a
leasure, They gradually became longer
and less far apart. Clive found that this

she was always grave; Sjnelimei a low,
musical laugh would burst from her rosy
Hps, but she couhl check it almost as if it
ad been a sacrilege. Olive felt that her
oung life must have been a sad history, and
e often repressed a yearning desire to offer
is pity and protection, But days and weeks
rapidly merged into months, and ono day
the master ot the house called the young
man into bis library, requesting a private
ulerview,
'It is now six months since my niece left
her home, and I do not think It necessary
to banish her six more. I suppose you will

winkle in the keen gray eyes, and a quiz
zlcal upraising of the bushy white brows.
'Of course, Bir,' replied the young man
readily, though not in a very assured tone.
Vou are still true to het?' was tbe next
question
Thero was a silence on the part of the
other. He was a nuzzle to himself. He bad
intended to be true but, with auother im
age in his heart, could he, in truth, say he
was? He could only reproach himself for
his infidelity,

But here, lost In his thoughts, he almost
stumbled over a, tlnj figure that lay wedg-jd

girl's long, dark lashes lay on the pale,

'What doss this mwn?' he asked, a light
cocmencing to dawn on his mind.
'It means,' replied Beatrice, a new-born
eagerness In her fair, smiliog, sweet, wo

Attachment to Newspapers.
Some one seems lo know about the rela
tion of a good newspaper to the family, writes
the following :
"The strong attachment of subicriben to
nell conducted newspapers is fully confirm
ed by publishers. "Stop my paper," words
of dread to beginners in business, loose their
terror after a paper lias been established for
a term of years. Sj lonir as a paper pursues

subscribers aud the paper aro as hard to
break by an outside third party as the link
which binds old friends in business or social
life. Occasionally defects and errors in a
newspaper are overlooked by those who
have become attached to it through its pe
rusal for years They sometimes become dis
satisfied with it on account of something
which has slipped into its coluines, and may
atop taking it, but tbe absence of tbe famil
iar sheet at their homes and offices for a lew
weeks becomes unsupportable privation and
then hasten to take it again, and possibly
apologize for having it stopped. No friend
ship on earth is more constant than tbal
coutractcd by the reader for a journal which
makes an honest and earnest effort to merit net, nervous exhaustiontodlgestion; pain
its continued support. Hence a conscien- in the head, with nausea; fullness of atom
