yet but she did not know her own heart until oue day ralph took her to eeo a little oottsge at richmond and told her how muob bis incomo wap abiinr her honestly to redeem her pledge to him at once sho was struck with dismay at ilia apparent narrowing of her life and positively refused to accede to an immediato marriage ludued tho possibility of breaking it off bad now entered her mind and bsingonoo admitted it mado rapid progress andfonnd plenty ofroasons and excuaes for its con duct ralph felt the chango but love is always blind where it- does not want to bee and one morning when ho read her engagement in tho afominp chronicle to a wealthy nmnato of the east indian board ho felt aal his life hod been buddenly smitten with blindness when a m11 ib oouetant there is no eon stanoy like it ltilph refused to blame boaaio everything und everybody were wroni but ehu j and he treasured tho little filovo that hud been a fuhblcse garo beyond all his possessions day after day ho watched the pout with a feverish hope that inpapacitated him far evory bthtif nmpoy- ment ho wroto and wrote to bessio and was quite sura that sooner or loiter sho would tlud moans to answer him tho only answor that ever came was a descrip tion of liar marriage festivities down at tho old hall at farleigh than he know his love was dead to bim and he tried to bury it in some bweot cor ner of his heart but just as he thought bo was succeeding ho ono day oame aoddenly face to fuco with bessie in oxford street he buffered so keenly after it that he deter mined on putting himself out of the way of ouch ouaounicra 80 ho advertised for floaio medical position and had three snewerr one would take him to canada ono to ireland and the other to india he determined to let tbo decision rest on which over offered him tho highest salary the indian appointment won and with in a few wceka he was on tho road to calcutta ho had doatroyed every me- were tbe little dumps of the pickery and drifting in tilf ul btralns oyer tbo river camo tbeeoboes of their eong and laughter it wob not an evening when love needed to plead ho could let his presence blend with all other sweet influences and trust to tho effect

old sun dial and in the newlyrisen mootl every thing about bessie had a strangely be witohtag besnty ralph could not help noticing how exceedingly small and shapely was the band that lay in his and bow dainty and pretty the pearlcolored kid glove that oovered it when they wore partijig hobaid j bebsie this has been a great night for me give me this glove that i may know tomorrow it was not all a dream bessie laid it in her lovers hand with a mils and a kiss tako it ralph sho said it is my gage that i will redeem my promljid ralph put tho delicate littlo pledge away and went up to london ho had uorne- thing to work for and hope now and ho soon mado these influences tell bessies parents had not objected to the mat oh sqniro farleigh was the poorest of a long raoe of kenlith squires and though tbo old hall and lands remained ho had not been a successful farmer and money was very scarce with him there seemed notjilnfi better for bessie than that she should marry erroll for house and lands must no to her brother tom and every year tbs savings toward her dower had been less and less but the very next spring after boailui engagement a speculative neighbor who bad money proposed to the sqilre the planting of the rioh meadows of farleigh in bops everyone knows that ihe oultars of hops is the gamboling of agriculture itrnprnjt wt innky ronmi fni- squire farleigh it was a new crop to bis lands the yield was enormout and the rate of duty on which everything bapfia unusuolly small when tbe picking wm over the hops sold and profits divided the aqulre had four thousand pounds in the bank everything looked different now be bad found a ktondlke at hia own door and could do nothing bat abuse tbe conventiooal stupidity which had led him always to plant wheat and oats aud feed cattle simply became iho squires before him had alwas done so but he was no better able to bear sudrton riohea than most men ire he immediate ly launched into unusual expenses re tar nished the hall and rebuilt hie kennels and bought a 000 pi 0 of banting horscm there was plenty of time for beiiisi dower next years crop would provide for her and indeed be batf already begun to doubt tbe wisdom ot

tntmtoorhlbbgarrntetf qqg that lifst night in england when she had sadly burnt bsaeiaa letterp and her little glftb and oven her picturo ho had not been able to commit to destruction that dainty little flovo thut had so long comforted him it seemed almost part of bessio ond though ho several times dropped it towards tho fumq he unally put it away witli a sad and hulf repoachublo tender- neb3 it found ib homo in no very romantic place a secret drawer in hia modicino cheat and there through eighteen long yoare it romaiuod uutouohed and unlooked at in this retreat it went with rlph to culcutta und after a few months he had no temptatiou to disturb it ho nad bo- coi 1 c a e iu bra p devoted botanlat and in tho two pursuits found ample interestin life his salary waa a very gooi one and ho was not indifferent to the fact he loved money jubt enough to bo anxious to make it and as bis practice lay very moeb among native princes and begums bis pro fessional rewards wero frequently vory magnificent twenty years ago those dig- nitaries did not oalouiato quite so closely as they do now good investments werd plentiful and ralph was known as a man who always bads few thousand rupee for aprofltablo eohemo hs grew attaobed to his indian life one relay of officers after another was exchang ed or sent home on long furloughs but ralph never thought of any ohango save a few weeks every summer to the cool heights ol the neilghorrys probably ho would hvodlod a very oontented exile if ba had not received a letter in tbo eightoonth yoar of his indian life tolling him that he had become the lawful heir to tho barony of erroll and hastings then bo went bok to england bat after tho first excitement and ploasare of bis return and bis newpoeitlon was over be began to fool a sense jof ennui and dis appointment his profession was dear to his faieart and it was im at on rift to und the oalmeasy ddties ofja oountry gentleman equivalout for theexolting inoif dents und laborsof a physician whoso air cult had extended over a range of fifty miles every way in fact in spite of wealth and honors he was bored and seriously looliuod to a journey of unlimited length in any oountry or ooaotrlos that promised him something to do or to learn he bad oomo op to london with this idea in embryo resolving to make inquiries and preparations thero bessie had no ptaoe in this movement he knew indeed that she was living in hampshire fie had no thought or hope of meeting her and would have avoided such a possibility at aomn personal trouble probably be still feared her power over him for he- had never dared to look at the only souvenir of their lova nor yet to love any other woman he did not hurry bis preparations but talked at the various oubs with various travelers on polar and tropic lands and wavered considerably in his intentions one day when ho had about decided on california and the groat west ho met an old indian acquaintance at the orien tal thoy had a long chat together and as tho major was leaving he said doctor i want you tomorrow night my daughter belle you saved her in that janglefever yon knowis to be married soou to jack pawaon of ours aud it la her betrothal party i never meddle in stiuh aflalrs major i will oomo aoqtfier night and see miss bella but the happy father would hear of no excuse and ralph was obliged to go it wasp vry splendid affair but tbe dootcr was used to indian msgninaauoo and tho bplondor did not interest him what pleased him most wbb tho roups of fair innicentiooking girls tbeir palobrown carls and blue eyes and rosy bkinp and their candid childlike joyouariess con trasted so vividly with tbn bronzecolored darkeyed halfveiled mysterious beauties of the far kast by and by waudorlog a conser vatory he camo suddenly apon a sight which gavo biro au inexpreiaibla emotion a little scented pparlcolorod glove lying ona rustic table tlo stood looking at it with astrangely tehdor feeling id iiis heart and in a few moments a youo girl glided up to him and looking bhyly in bis faoe said it is my glove blr then ralph looked at her sho woe a little rosebud of a girl clothed in pearl- gray bilk whito lace and piqk ribbons and he fell irremediably iu love with bor in that one moment ho followed her timidly about for an hour or two and finally got an introduction to hor mim bessie wil- mont it was bessio farletghs daughter of course but he was thinking so little of the old bessie tit that moment that the oircamatarjco never btruok liina until somd one asked tbo new bessie as thoy passed ber wben sho went next to farleigh well this mooting ohangod all ralphs plans he did not go to california bo went down to farleigh in a tend he found tho squire alive and prosper ing farleigh hall had become one of the show plaoes in kent and in la old gardens and again floating down tho bled way when bops filled the air with a rloher perfume than ollbanpm or nard he wooed and won tho lovelybeaalo wilraot ho has two little pearlcolored gloves now and the first bobbio lavufjhed pleasant ly whon she allowed ber tbat the two wero excellent raatohoa and made a pair the eooond gago redeems the firat bhe said with a tender happy look at the little bessie so dear to them both three years ago thoy were married and ralph does not now find tho country gentlemans life dull indeed as he has some idea of taking sqoire fftrloigha advice and planting hops io erroll meadows i havo no doubt ho will find in the uncertain ty and anxiety of their culture luxation and sale plenty ot material fur excitement if bo still

ambition sleeps but its bilenoe is perfumed with tbe flowers of poetry and enriched with many a gem of thought it it also a refuge in which tbo editor bides many a man not ouly from the aesualts of
