The effect of. my words upon him was as fearful as unexpected! He blanched suddenly, dropped into a chair, and glared luridly from un- der the shade of his long black lashes at me, as if I had wilfully and wantonle outraged him. I was about done with surprise at- any eccentric motion of Wall- raven; and fate, or something, im- pelled me to go on. “What is neiâ€" thCi always: reasonable nor Chris- tian, her highâ€"toned sense of honâ€" or, is morbid, even to mania.

It is this that has terrified me for my sister! It. is this that makes me shudder when I recall the fearful words, the thunder wordsâ€"JPride goet‘n before a. fall, and a haughty temper be~ fore destruction." ” I suddenly felt a strong grasp upon my shoulder, and the husky, inaudible words. “Ah! you havé! Ym} (It; not see, do not acknowledge that it is pride than keeps that high, pure charac- ter so spotless from oven convenâ€" tional little me'annesses ”’ A twinge of. remorse wrung me for unjustaut. I felt that I had been severe with the foihle of my dear Regina, and that it; was nut only ungcnerous, but. unjust, to speak of her fault in her absence; so I hastened to say. “Yes, I do." but I see also that ‘px'idc’ makes Regina, sternly un- compromising, terribly intolerant of the little social and conventional meannesses and falsehoods of others!’ ’ "I have something to say to you, dear Ferdinand,” she repeated, without; dcigning to notice my adâ€" mimtiou. “You know that‘I have no f‘a- tcl'nal insensibility to my sister’s VI) noble character, Wolng ng .- HFor God's sake, hush!” and Wallmvcn rushed out of the room. She looked so fair, so? proud, so joyous, yet-’50 charmingly em- barrassed. “I have something to say to you, dear Ferdinanc,” said my- sister Regina, laying her fair hand. affec- tionately on my shoulder, and sink ing: softly into a- chair by my side. “I‘Vhy, how beautiful you are, Re- gina! Queen Blanche! Fair one with golden locks!” exclaimed I, in involuntary admiration and fovdness. And she was! Dazzling- ly beautiful! She had arisen, rcâ€" stored by her long morning sleep, refreshed by her cold bath, and dressed for dinner. She wore a very light. blue silk, with fine lace falls to the short sleeves. and low Corsage. Her. splendid pail-e gold hair was rolled back from her snowy forehead and temples in shining bandeaus, and wuven in a large knot behind. She had floutâ€" ed in and sunk down by me suftly, lightly, gracefully, as :L sun~gilded azure cloud, a vision of celestial beauty! I “I listen, dear Regina,’ said I, seriously. I started to myvfeéi, throwing off her hand by my violence, and ex- claiming vehemently, “N23, Régina! No!” I yexclaim~ ed, emphatically, without replying to her last observation. “Brother, I am engaged to be married to Wolfgang Wallrajvenfl; Her snowy brow grew purple; she drew her proud crest haught- ily up, and was preparing silently to rise and leave the room; when I laid my hand upon her with an imploring gesture, and rising, went and turned the key in the door, sat down by her side, and beseeching her by our fraternal love to listen to me with some little toleration, I began, and gave her a minute, de- tailed account of. my whole confi- dential connection with Wallraven; commencing from our earliest school days; passing through our life, at the preparatory school; through our college friendship; inâ€" cluding our joint Visit to “'illow Hill, with the extraordinary scene in his chamber; and, lastly, my re- cent visit to Hickory Hall, with the frightful occurrence in my chamber in the dead of the first night of my arrival. I ended with imploring my Sister, as she valued her happiness, not to risk it by a marriagc with him. For any othe’1""good purpose than that of doing my own duty and cxcnerating my own conscience, I might just as well have been silent. Regina heard me through; though as my story progressed. 1 saw her lip curl, and curl, with a slowly gathering contempt; and when I finished, she arose -with flashing eyes, and answered me with it blasting, consuming scorn. anger, and defiance~accusing mo of deâ€" grading suspicions e» degrading to myself and to no one elseâ€"of treachery to my friend-éofwl know not what besides;~ and expressing, with the air of an empress. her highest trust in Wolfgang Wallâ€" i‘aven’s unimpeachable purity and honor. In short, she replied to me as any other haughty, high-spirit- c-l woman would reply to asperâ€" sions so cast upon the man she deigned to accept. “Are you surprised?” she seâ€" renely inquired. ‘ ’ “Why?” she asked, calmly, with scarcely a. perceptible inflection of surprise and contempt in her tone. “Yes. then, if I declaration.” “No, it; is notf shall not be so.” “You must notâ€"shall notâ€"canâ€" not marry Wallraven 2” “Will you endeavor to make yourself intelligible, Ferdinand?” she demanded, coldly. “Wallraven Cannot in honor marâ€" ry you, and he knows it!” First. obtain of any well stocked druggist, three ounces of essence of pepsin and three ounces of syrup of rhubarb in an 8 oz. bottle.

It is especially beneficial to men and women be- tween the ages of sixteen and fifty- fivc, who from lack of proper nerve force and digestion, remain undeâ€" veloped in body, limbs, arms and bust. A well rounded symmetrical figure in man or woman indicate health, magnetism, stamina and happiness. People. who are very thin and scrawny ought not- to be so. Unâ€" doubfcdly they are more subject to disease and contagious than the normally fleshy.
