CHAPTER II.
THE HEIRS.

But the doctor and Suzette counted too
confidently upon the requests Of Aunt
Sarah, because she still lived. and it was
by no means certain that Miss Waldhorn
would constitute the doctor and his wife
her universal legatees. 1t is true. this
amiable couple were in the greatest need
of such q legacy, but there was another
niece and her spouse, the lawyer Glossin;
and there we're, besides,two more nephews,
the Rev. Giles Waldhorn, and the Profes-
sor P~iiJosophi9 Of the same name. All
these as well as DR.. Falk and his wife,
had the same pretensions to the success
sion of their Aunt Sarah, and all hoped
with the same ardor for the speedy disso-
luton Of the ailing spinister..
Of all these ~pretenders, the philosopher
Waldhorn was the one who had the least
occasion for painful anxiety IN the premi-
ses. He possessed an ample fortune.
and every day he philosophical very
agreeably before a table well supplied
with the choicest food and beverages
He had composed an im~perishable monu-
ment Of his s~piritualism in the immortal
work, in FIVE volumes octave. entitled
" Ineffable Serenity amid the Cares and
Vicissitudes Of Life. is the Domain of
Philosophy He proved, in this most
admirable work, that sorrow, grief. and
evils of every kind existed only in imag-
ination. and that sagacity consists in con-
templating all things ON their agreeable
side.
In fact, he contemplated his aunt un

CHAPTER ".
THE CONSULTATION.

He took his hat and abstractedly pro.
ceeded to the street. Tne c%onjugal con-
ference still oppressed him. He reflected
on his Strengthened resources and his
miserable professional patronage. He
pulled his hat over his eyes, and walked
with desperate strides hustling other per-
sons as he made his wav. He even over
turned, in his course, a dou9ty prebenda-
ry who was one Of the lights Of the
church.
On arriving at Aunt Sarah's house, he
did not find her, as he expected, upon a
bed Of anguish, but seated in a comfort
able arm chair, and perusing, with .specta-
cles on nose. an ascetic work Astounding
in pious considerations respecting death.
:" Well, how do you feel now ?" en-
quired the doctor, placing his hat and
cane on q chair.
"God knows said the old maid sigh
ing. Il suffer much; | fear I an APP
preaching my last hour. That would be
dreadful"
The doctor felt her pulse with great
absence Of mind, and said, while thinking
Of something else, there is cause for ag-
itation." The honest doctor was men
tally at home with his Suzette.
"Do you find ne dangerous, my dear
Falk y enquired the invalid, full of in
quietude.
"The occurrence is nothing more than
is to be expected at such an age, and with
a constitution in which health predomi.
mates" responded the doctor, his thoughts
still at a distance.
SIS it indeed so 2" said the old maid
with a more satisfied air. In fact, | an
in the prime of life; all things considered
am tolerably we'll. But still, God have
pity upon me, for. oh my dear Falk, | an
troubled with numerous palms." and she
now went on with the endless ~yolubility
of a nervous and hysterical woman, tc
describe the ten thousand imaginary
symptoms with which she was afflicted
AS she poured forth the wordy torrent
the doctor abstractedly beat a tattoo with
his fingers on the table, and was absorbed
in considering the unexpected addition
to be made to his family, on the embar
easements which threatened him, and or
