CUAELATIQY, A SECLUDED HEIRESS,
By Winthrop Gilman. (Concluded. )
‘The house is over there,’ she observed, pointing through the trees. ‘I suppose that you are the bailiffs.’
‘Bailiffs ? 1 gasped.
‘Excuse me if I do not give you your proper title,’ she continued with a melan- choly smile. ‘Itisthe first time that we have ever been brought in contact with the ‘officers of the law, and hardly know how to address them. We have expected you for two days.’
Bob and I could only stare at her in silent bewilderment. | ‘There is one thing I should like to ask you,’she went on, drawing nearer to us with her hands clasped and a beautiful pleading expression upon her face. ‘Though my ‘aother and I| are almost beggars now, remember that she is a lady, delicately reared and ecensitive. Above all, remember thai she has no one to protect her or to take her part. Be gentle with her, there- fore, anddo your duty without wounding her feelings more than you can hep.’
‘Bob,’I whispered,drawing my coaipanion aside, though he still continued to stare Klioticaliy over my shoulder at the young
lady. ‘Do yourealize it? They expect the bailiffs. There’s no money in the con- cern. What are we to do?
i
| ‘She’s an angel! was all Bob could evolve, | ‘So she is, but she’s got no money.’
‘Then you give her up?
‘I do,’ said I with a sentimental twinge
at my heart. Sentimentalism has always /been my weak point. ‘You won't propose?’ asked Bob excitedly. ‘No, marriage is an expensive luxury. ' Besides P
‘Besides what?’
‘I am convinced sbe would not have me.
‘Then, by jove, [ll do it! said Bob, facing, round with a look of determination vpon his dirty face.

She drew back a few feet as Bob took a step toward her with his two arms thrown out in eloquent entreaty, like an animated sycamore.
‘Young lady,’ he began, “I am nota bailiff. I belong to another and a higher branch of the legal-profession. I am a lawyer and a gentleman.’
Bob pavsed for a moment to allow this statement to sink into his listener’s mind. Miss Clairmont looked more amazed than impressed, though it was evident from her shrinking figure that she was considerably startled.
‘In a foreign land,’ cried Bob, warming to his work—‘a land beyond the seas—-I allude to America—I heard of your charms and of your solitary existence, and I swore —that is to say, we both did, only I lost the toss—to save you and bring you out into the great world which you are so fitted to adorn. We crossed the deep—which made us both exceedingly unwell—and flew to your rescue. We have scaled this inhos- pitable wall of yours; if you doubt my statement you will find a iarge portion of ‘the sleeve of my coat upon one of the spikes which adorn it. We also ran the gauntlet of the many unpleasant things which your amiable parent seems to have littered about for the benefit of the casual stranger. Dear girl,’ continued Bob, advancing with an imbecile grin upon his countenance, which jhe imagined no doubt to be a seductive smile; ‘fly with me! Be mine! Share with me the wild free life of a lawyer! Say that you return the love which fills my heart— oh, say it! Here Bob put his hand ever a hole in his waistcoat and struck a dramatic attitude.
During this extraordinary add:ess the young lady had been gradually edging away from us, and at its conclusion she burst into a merry peal of laughter.
‘Edward !’ she cried—‘Ned! Do come out! It’s really too ridiculous, but I don't

At this summons a man emerged from behind a tree where he had concealed him- self and flew to ber side. Imagine our petrifying and all-abserbing astonishment when we recognized in him Pendleton, our retiring companion of the inn.
‘Don’t be freightened, darling,’ he said, passing his arm round her slender waist, to Bob’s intense and audible disyust. ‘I can understand, gentlemen,’ he went on, ‘the romantic motives which have led you here,
tell you that this lady is my wife.’
‘Your what? roared Bob and I in chorus.
‘My wedded wife. You are the first that have heard our secret, though Mrs. Clair. mont must learn it to-day. It does not matter to you how we met or how we | married—suffice it that is so. To-day the lruin which I had long foreseen has come | upon the household; Mrs. Pend!eton thinks lit may have softened the heart of her ‘mother, and we are going up now to see (her together, to confess what we have done, and ofr her a home for the rest of her life j at my place in Devon. Yeu will see, gen- tlemen,’ he continued, ‘that a delicate mat- ter of this sort must be done without in- ‘terruption and at once ; ycu will therefore lexcuse us from showing you off the |grounds. I may say, however, that if you will keep to that path on the left you will }soon find yourselves at the boundary—and ‘now, gentlemen, my wife and myself must wish you a very good morning,” with which lhe offered the young lady his arm and the itwo strolled off in the direction of the | house,

When night fell, however, and a steaming jug of hot water was brought up, flanked with a lemon on one side and the sugar on the other, while the whisky bottle towered in the rear, we began to get over our troubles, and I doubt if O’Keefe, when he joined us, could have given a guess at the stirring events which had occurred since he told us the story of the Clairmont family the night before. Certainly by next morning there were no traces left of our short matrimonial campaign.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
The Bible.
Sir,— The Bible is pre-eminently the book of supernatural sayings—statements that are beyond even the conceptions of, at least, the human spirit. ‘‘Ere hath not seen or ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man;”’ or as it is contained in Is, 64-4, ‘‘For, since the beginning of the world, men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, O God, beside Thee, what He hath prepared for him that awaiteth for Him. The Bible is, therefore, a miracle— a miraculous revelation of the thoughts, purposes and plans of God. These pur- poses and plans are the reasons for the divine motives of all that God has done and wil! yet do in this world. The Bible reveals ell these. It is clear, then, that revelation—the Bible—does not grow out of, or proceed from nature, as it is called; but nature grows out of revelation, or is the manifestation, by material forms, of the thoughts, purposes and plans made known by word in the Bible. Properly, then, the operations of nature must illus- trate and, in their measure. explain what is nore clearly stated in the Bible concern- ing God and His ways among tue children of men. They must harmonize and speak the same language, so far as they co-extend. If they seem to antagonize or contradict, it is because of a defect in their comparison by man, for God is in beth, acting on the same line with the same pur- poses, to the same end. There is this fact to be borne in mind: In nature the appeal is by facts to the understanding; in the Bible the facts appeal to faith. ‘*Through faith we understand that the worlds were formed by the Word of God, so thet the things which are seen were not made of things which do appear;’ and we know that ‘‘faith cometh by hearing (not by seeing) and hearing by the Word of God.’ Hence the Word of God alone, as contained in the Holy Scriptures, is the rule of faith, and therefore, also, of all right and _accept- able practices. The Bible, then, is above all philosophy or science, especially the falsely so-called. In the Bible alone can we find the truly supernatural, and the supernatural alone is the object of faith. Among the many other wonderful sayings of the Bible, I will call the attention of your readers to this:—Matt. 5, 8, ‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shail see God.” The same truth is more fully, yet not more forcibly nor authoritatively, ex- pressed in Psalms 15, 1—2, ‘‘Lord, who shall abide in Thy Tabernacle, who shbali dwell in Thy Holy Hill! He that waiketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart;” and in in Psalms 24, 3--4, ‘*Who _ shall ascend into the Hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in His holy place? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.”” The same truth in Heb. 12:14. ‘*Follow peace with all, and holiness, without which no man shall eee the Lord.” Very many other passages might be cited to show how this eruth vervades the whole Bible. in fact, in re-esiablishing God’s rule and government over men, the first thing to be done is ta make men pure in heart. Since the fall the heart of man has become ‘‘deceitful above all things and desperately wicked.” This condition of the heart of every cne born into the world is not a fact that can be known by any sclf-analysis which the most learned and disciplined mind of man can make. No intrespection, no searching as ‘‘with a lighted candle” can discover the iniquitous depths of the natural heart of man. All true knowledge of the natural heart must be learned by receiving the statements of the Holy Scriptures;—that is the knowledge of self as well as the knowledge of God comes by faith alone.
Now comes ancther fact, viz, just as man cannot know himself as he is in God’s sight, no more can he make himself what he ought to be in God's sight. Man cannot
remain in impurity, or wuncleanness, which he cannot know, either in degree or extent. The evil must be
known before the remedy can be applied. David felt and acknowledged this when he cried: ‘*Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me,” ‘Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me and know my thoughts, and see if there be any wicked way in me.” Men are, therefore, shut up to the necessity, if they would be clean and pure in heert, of accepting God's plan and tueans of sccom- plishing that great work. But what man cannot do at ali of himself, he can co- operate with God in His doing of it, as the Apostle says: ‘‘Wherefore, brethren, work out your own salvation with fear and trem- bling. For it is God that worketh in you, to will and to do of His good pleasure.” It is in the Church alone that this working, together with God, is most clearly seen, because there God works, even as it is written: ‘‘In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and uncleanness.” ‘‘How much more shall the blood of Christ. Who, through the Eternal Spirit, offered Himself to God, purge your [consciences from dead works to serve the living God.” “Unto Him that loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood.” Let us beware, then, how we think lightly of the Chureh of God and of God’s place and work of cleansing from sin, least we be found despisers of God.
