an angry voice, arrested her steps.

fluence. ] can do 1t easily, and you
know It for everybody knows that my
uncle meant to make me his heir.--
When you got up this scheme to marry
me to this girl, supposed she was a
simple little countryfied thing, who
could be managed easily; but the mo-
ment saw her on the cars,-where /
followed your shrewd idea of scraping
acquaintance with her, and getting into
her good graces, before she saw anybody
else,-I saw that there was good deal
of Tartar to her. If you'll make her
marry me right away, I'll risk but that
l can manage her but l am not going
to stand this hilly-shallying.
1t was Richard Vandervere's voice;
and Mrs. Vandervere was trying in vain
to quiet him.
Hetty felt faint and sick. BY great
effort, she summoned strength enough
to creep up to her room, and lock the
door behind her.
Her thoughts came rapidly. Elkanah
was right. Richard Vandervere was
thoroughly unprinclpled, and he cared
for her for the sake of her money. And
heraunt was linked with him in plot
against her. She was all alone and
friendless.
At last way of escape dawned upon
her. Elkanah had told her that he was
going home to Derby that night at six
o'clock.
She reached the depot in time; and
almost the first person she saw there
was Elkanah, ,-Elkanah the picture of
despair as well as awkwardness.
She slipped her hand into his.
Elkanah ~ she said, ''forgive me,
and take me home. l have found out
that it is all true-what you said ; and 1
want to go home"
Such a light as came into Elkanah' 3
eyes Hetty never forgot it.
l may as we'll end my story here,
since Hetty's New York experience is
ended.
will only add, that, when anybody
ventures TO insinuate to Mrs. Elkanah
Eastman that her husband is not hand
some, she always says that she fell in
love with him on account of his ugli-
ness and awkwardness," and that she
wouldn't have him bit handsomer
for the world"

Whaleb0ne.

Few persons know what the whale

ing animal. A writer thus describes Il:
Whalebone, in fact, represents IN enor-
nous development Of the gum OF the
whale. and exists in the living animal
In the form Of two rows of plates,
which. like n double fringe. hang OF de-
pend fro m its palstes. From one hun
dred and fifty To two hundred Of these
plates exist in the mouth Of . whale.
and the largest plates may measure
from eight To ten or twelve feet lopg.
The inner edges Of these whalebone
plates exhibit n fringed or frayed-out
appearance, and the whole apparatus
Is adapted To serve ~ \ kind Of gigantic
seive or strainer. Thus. when the
whale fills the mouth with water, large
numbers Of small or minute animals,
allied to jelly-tishs and the like. are en-
quilted and drawn into the ~capacious
mouth cavity.
The water Is allowed IN escape by the
sides Of the mouth. but its solid animal
contents are strained of and entangled
by the whalebone fringes. and when =
sufficient quantity Of food has been cap
tured in this way. the morsel Is duly
swallowed. Thus II Is somewhat Curl
Gus to reflect that the largest animals
are supported by some Of the smallest
beings,

power.
Before him stood Paul of Tarsus.
worn with long watchings and waitings
for trial. although he had received every
indulgence which Roman law could
permit. On his wrists were the marks
Of the chains which he had worn for
two years. the scars which must have
hurt so much whilst they were being
made. There were also scars about
him OF these fearful scourges in which
he glorified; and there were traces Of
perils by sea and by land. which do not
leave a man rs they find him.
There he stood with undaunted self
possession. facing the emperor. u he
had faced many a lesser ruler. He had
longed 10 see Cesar. and now he had
his wish.
He was nj last face In face with the
man who had murdered his mother.

brother. and whose heart WAS full Of
every imaginable wickedncss. He was

stained mind WAS ever bent OF praise,
and who so forgot his dignity that. in

councillors. he publicly performed on
the stage ~ a musician and as . chnri-
oteer In the circus. II was impossible
even for the most devoted sdherent to
the Roman law To feel the least respect
Tor this emperor; and the awful attri-
butte which Wa given to him Of power
equal to the gods was incapable Of
raising him in the minds Of his sub
