Tho Van Korea were present at the creation of the world. Home pooplo aay they made it; hut one reallr knows butter than that. If it had not been for their unaccountahlu belief that tho builder of tho ark that rested ou Mount Ararat was a Jew, and their unutter able contempt for the race of Hpinoa ami Mendelsohn, of lloino, Auerbachand Disraeli, they would not have hesitated toconceivo that tho family name of the Patriarch was Van Nor. At any rate, you may understand that tho Van Notes wore au immensely ancient family. so old i to be really worm-eaten. In the dust of the Van Nores thero wero soldiers and statesmen, and even a less regarded author or two: in this century there was nothing at all to apeak of. If, however, anv one sava their family tree was like one of thusu of old, wulu and deep-rooted tlr trees sometimes seem, with but a single gnarled and lmehcd branch left of all its forest glory, the best part of it under ground, yon ran see that the person is no friend of the Van Nores, but one whose eyes have been hurt by the dazzle of their splendor, who has been forgotten at their banquets, looked at with a stony glare upon the street or possibly knocked down and bruised and ig nored by their fust horses. lSi'inir immensely ancient, immonselv tfis- tiniiiiisiied, and also immensely wealthy, it goes without saying that tho Van Nores thought immensely well of themselves. Ihey never soiled their garments by contact with tho crowd; they bought their pictures aud statues straight from the manufacturers be fore they had been profaned by the vulgar gaze; they would havo liked tho gold they spent cast with a Van Nore device and the die broken. They could not hope to keep all the knowledge in the universe to themselves; but they did not care bo much for that thore wero always tutors aud chaplains and ull that to be had. after tho custom of certain of the Houth Hca Island chiefs, who maintain a Fila-oma or Talking Man of Knowledge. If, once in a while, thev allowed themselves to come before tho public in a matter of sufl'rage, it was not al together without the Bcnsatinn of somo wicked scribe who has written tho Sacred Annie with liuwashed hands, and, being unusually de feated, thev relapsed luto a more profound contempt of the people than before, nnd talked glibly of tho advantages ol a monarchy, al though not without an undercurrent of deling that in the event of a monarchy the an .Nores would be motiarchs. They intermarried, of course, only with families of a pedigree and as sumption ouo degruo loss than it could not lie more than, ami could hardly be equal to the Van Nores. Judgo, then, of the bewildered and amazed wrath of tho Van Nore family, when tho sou of the house, tliu last of the name, the only male Van Nore left to go go dowu tho ages with tho weiulit of the family illustriousness upon his shoulders, murried a young girl iu the nest, unknown, obscure, poor, ami a Jewess : . ore m .Nore IkuI a sister older than him self, a dark and imposing creaturu "with tho Van Nore nose; he bad a sister, younger than himself, pallid, bloodless, with her mother's delicacy of feature, and with nothing about her but haughtiucss to distinguish ber from the herd of young women; be hud one Van Nolo cousin, a little apple blossom burdly coining up to the requirements; ho had four Van Noru spinster aunts, who, if they quarreU.il dU'.uug themselves like birds in a wood, presented an unbroken phalanx of family integrity to tho public, and who, with the idea that they had the manners of duchesses, roally gave some reason to believe them directly descended from tho Patriarch, they looked so extremelyliko tho woodeu woman in the children's toy arks. His father embodied all tho dignity, pomposi ty, and Kiamleur of all the V an .Nores before him, as if be wero tho llamo of their ashes; he had but ono uift, and that was a faculty for satirical speech, which bo exercised with im punity upon Ins wile ins wne, tue 1 1 no ot whoso descent was so long that it bad worn to colorless, attenuated thread in her, a pale, thin, languid woman, of whose coudition it ex pressed little to say she dared not call her soul ber own. because, in looking at her, or looking through her, rather, it was uot clear that she had a soul a woman without intellect, with out individuality, and almost without vitality. Into this assemblage Noro an -Nolo bad dared introduce a is-rson absolutely without a grand father, and whose grandfather, had she one, would have beeu named hhaeabac ! Mr. Van Nore and bis household would en treat this vile and vulgar intriguer, who had thought to trust herself upon them, and had thought to lift herself by pulling them down, as she deserved. In their heart of heart they bad a cisnplete, if inarticulate, conscit.usucs that no one could have married the bridegroom iu question for any other purpose. And Noru Vau Sore received a letter of repudiation from bis father, disowuing aud easting him forever into tit outer darkness of the world of people who were not Van, Nures. And who was Nore Van Nore? He was a young man of twenty-six years, whose mental "nrocesses bad mastered the rudiments of learning to such an extent that be could read the newspaper and make rhange. AU attempts to cultivate those mental processes much fur ther bad failed; if ho entered the university at last, it was because tutors ami proctors and family iniluencc, a fortuitous chance, and per haps inouey, all wrought together. Entrance was all, however; befoie the tirst term closed Mr. Vau Nore had private but authoritative information that unless be wauled expulsion for stupidity approaching imbecility, be had bettor withdraw bis son. In a hot aud self righteous furv Mr. Van N ire turned the tables and expelled the university. He withdrew bis son with a wild show of auger and scorn for faculty, curriculum, endowment and ca reer, "they have graduated no man who comes to anything in tbelast twenty five years!" he said. And that the matter might be the sooner forgotten, he gave Ht. Van Nore a parse and a traveling companion, and de spatched him to tbe far west. It was probably but a rase of retarded development; perhape he would do a little exploring and discover ing; when he should return tbe affair would hare quite blown over, and be would marry him t some maiden who bad been so well brought up that she would feel herself taking s proper place among domination!, princes and powers-by marrying a Van Nore of any calibre. All the same he did not fall to make bis wife'a life s burden to ber by aarcaamson ber feeble wit that bad been strong enough lo adulterate the strength of the Van Nores, while tbe very sense of his son's incapacity, thus forced upon him him, was another argu moot against tbe woman who would marry an imbecile for the sako of climbiug into his rank and position. It waa not altogether to bs wondered at, then, if bia wifo did not fully sympathize with him in th's extremity, and if, being of an sfTectiou ate disposition, so far as she had anything to impart, Having imparieu uiai i she wrote a little surreptitious letter-she who bad usually not a thought nor a deed nor an emotion of her own. "MyDarllus Boy-I snd ou all mjr !. Any wife jrou choose lo marry will bs the dear dsubtrr of your mollior ." Tbatwaa tho letter written ao secretly; it meant volumes to ber; it meant volumes to her boy, 8he was frightened to a trembling ghost of her ghost like self when she stopped tho carriage and asked the footman to drop it in a street-box, for she felt that if her husband knew it it would not be impossible for him to blow out ber flickering flame of life altogether, or stamp It feeble spark into tbe earth. He never bad struck her, but she nover knew what be might do yoC The father letter, when it came, was uot at all unexpected by IIij-o Van Nore, nor wa the mother' a surprise, tiho was a girl of twenty, "divinely tall and most divinely fair." Her superb moulding would lV'' fed a sculptor's eye with rapture, her superb coloring would have driven wild another than Titian; the great braid upon her bead seemed msdu of strands of spun gold; she woro them like a crown, a became a daughter of tho royal tribo of Judah. Hhe was undoubtedly a Jewess; but as Miriam, a Deborah, asHusaniiah may have done, she had tho large beauty ot that Clytiu iu her sunflower who somo think to be Isis iu her lotus. Hhe waited in her father's "hop, and she sold Mr. Van Nore a pair of gloves there. Ho had given bis purse sometiniosinee to his traveling companion, and he was waiting in this little pluce till be should receive a fresh remittance from bis father. When he saw Huro ho ha" something else to wait fur. Ho hung round tho shop corners, aud when she went home he followed her. She stepped as if tho earth were air; he said to himself that it was because hi heart were under feet. He know intuitively that she would not givo him a sec ond look." What were the Van Nores out hero in tho wilderness? He wa able to see.for all bis deficiency, that she was ou a higher piano of being than bia own. Dut if he could uot hope he could at least suffer; ho could uotgazo at the star ho might not win. He bought an other pair of gloves. Ah, heavens! to feel tbe touch of those pointed linger of hers as they stretched the kid from sido to side of his band. The next day he bought another pair, ll.-fore he was through he had bought the whole stock of gloves iu the (hop. Of course this attracted her attention, and she made some inquiry concerning him. "You had better go away," alio said, when ho came iu again. "You do nut need glovos, or ties, or any of our goods. You are making yourself ridiculous." "I have nothing to do with it," he replied. "I was mode so when I was born." And bo one word led to another, aud in tbe course of timo ho bad told her his story, which somehow seemed full of wrongs, the story of a rather feeble-minded youth who had been snubbed and brow-beaten and ill-used by a dis appointed fatbor, from bis birth. Her heart was stirred with pity, she let him come Xo the house, llopu bounded within him. If the star should fall from the sky to his arms! He wroto his father I forgot to say that he could write that ho wanted his influence to help him marry the most lovely, the most brilliant of women, who waited behind the counter of ber father's little Jewshop. The answer to this letter made his hair stand on end. Cold, sneering, vindictive, cruel, threatening what should be do but show it to her? Her blood would have been cold aud thin stuff had that uot mad) it boil. "I can never go back to him," said Nore. I never will go back to him. It is tho lost blow he shall strike me." "Would you bo happier hero in tho shop helping mat" she asked. lieyond measure!" he cried. So she told him to see bur father that night. She meant about tlio situation; ho meant about a wife. And her father, in as good and strong contempt as Mr. Van Nore himself could feel, ordered the fellow from the bouse. "The worthless varlet!" cried the old man. "Cm he earn his salt? What do I care for his name uud his family and his entailed moneys the dog of a christian. He can have them all; but lie can't marry my girl to an idiot!" "Ho is not an idiot, father," said Hero. "Thero is more in bini than any see," and she calmly canvassed the subject. "Ilo has been made to look up till ho does not know how to look straight ahead. Some day ho will assert himself" "You?" said ber father. " You? 1 believe you care for the lout! When you have sweet hearts to till a regiment! When you can marry any man iu tin country! ' I dont't know," sho said, I'm. very sorry for him. I care to have him happy he has had so much niihappiness." Aud at that mo ment they heard a' groan outside, and they ran to the door to pick up Nore Van Nore, helpless and just returning to consciousness with a broken leg. Hero ins lulled herself as the chief attendant. In the long hours of pa'i-mt pain, iu the devot edness of his silent worship for her, something stirred her heart that was not pity. Heaven knows what tt was! There am somu strong na tures that must wrap themselves about tho weak. The Hist time he could stand upon his feet aiiaiu they wero married. And then Noro Van Nore went down to help her wait behind tho counter in tho shop where sho consulted him and referred to him and honored him un til she was likely to nuke others share tha strungu respect sho had for hiin. "114 is single-hearted,' sho said to one of her old lovers in that primitive community, who felt the right to inaue some outspoken complaint; "bo is upright; be is unselfish. He is kind to tbe tlv on tho wall. He loves mo nnd no other. What more do I want in a husband? Ho suits me. Aud as for religion, what dues that sig nify when at any l ine, we both worship tho s..iiic God!" A year from that time Hero did not go to the shop much; she had a little son and not such a very little one either a bouncing, miig tiiticc'it boy, with bis mother's colors and eyes, full of life and joy and spirit, and quite tho most remarkable baby in tho world. And so, when the child was six months old. it seemed to X.'re Van Nore, in bis happiness, that be was wrong to deprivo his family of tho pleas ure of knowing of such a blessing, ami be wrote home for the third time, but this time to his mother. This was shaking tbe red rag in tho facts of the bull. Jlr. Van Nore trampled up and down his wife's sitting-room aw lulo. reared aud stampxd and snorted aud b.'llowcd, and not till he bad reduced ln-r to tears tor having brought such a son into the world, and bad fiitrsued it till she gaspi d for breath and had to lave t e maids and ether and hot bottles, did he subside into silence aud thought. That this son of a Wyarlv shop girl of a Jewess should be the Van X ire 1 Never, never, if he had to put out the light of all the Van Nores at once ! Jocelyne. his eldest daughter, should marry young le Vere. aud he should take the name of Vau Nore. For a sum of mon ey Nore should break the entail ami renounce his name, taking instead that of bis lowborn wife. Aud so Jocclyuc's son. who was a fore gone conclusion in Mr. Vau Nore' mind, should be the great Van Nore to come. He had a satchel packed within an hour, and bo slept that night, for the first time in his life, in a vulgar sleeping car, always before having left the train at nightfall rather than be one of the promiscuous canaille sleeping a com uou sleep. Days and nights and days and nights of this wrvtcbeu contiguity. It was a hard experi ence for Mr. Van Nore. He added it all up against his son. And the selfishness ot the niodurn traveler did not tend to iucrease bis appreciation of bia kind. His kind ? Not the bast bit his kind! Mr. Van Nore was more than ever persuaded be was a superior integ.-r of the ra-.-v t aking, perhaps, one of those points of progress from which one development steps to a higher, ai ia atuuu iu yic. ence of bis daughter-in-law. A ahapelea little greasy Jewess, selling old clothes or a stately young godde assuming a human smile? One couvnlsive sensation thrilled serosa him of pride in Nore' tasle at least, souring Instantly to anger to think that taste was all. Aud then he opened the subject. "No, father-in-law," said Hero firmly, do spite his wincing, and after the fashion of speech in uae among her people. "No, father-in-law; we do not want your money. Nor will we surrender your name; it i our name by all right snd that it i your. Aud, a for your grandson, we have no power to forcuwear his birthright for our mess of pottage." It was a will as strong a bi own that op posed him. Storming wa do use hero. lie left tho bouse without another word, aud left Hero dancing ber crowing boy iu the broad transfiguring sunbeam, looking up proudly at her husband, yet fondly, to see if really she snd the boy compensated him for all be bad lost. An hour afterward Mr. Van Nore wa brought back to hi son ou a stretcher; two trains had collided, and he was among tho killed and wouuded. An artery had been severed, and before a physician vnuld reach him he was bleeding to disth. When at length, the flow wa staunched, snd he lay fainting and sinking sway, "It is almost hopeless," said the surgeon. "There is little blood left in his body." Tho sight o bis dying father had changed tho current of Nore' irato feeling. "If I could but give him mine!" ho cried. "It would do him small good," said the doc tor looking st the palu snd spindling fellow with an anatomist' contempt; and from him tho glance traveled to Hero, standing near in her ubuudant lite, with tho dancing boy in her arms. B!ill followed by the sunbeam. Iloro read tho glance in a moment, aud had given the child to her husband. "Hero, doctor," she said, baring an arm that Hebe, carrying life and nectar to the gods, might have lifted. "Do you kuosr what It means for you?" said the doctor. "And for your child, perhaps? Lous of strength, it may be of health" "I know it is my husband's father, my child's grandparent, ' she suid slowly. "If my blood can save him, it is right that he shall have it." And when she came to herself after her first fainting tit, savo for her fatigue and languor, he did not know that she felt much the worse, aud her father-in-law was smiling at her with luster iu the eyes that sho so lately saw nearly set in death. Strango and awful moment to Hero! 8 ho had given life to this man. She bad gone be hind llie veil of death and darkness aud work eu with forces of creation. There was s bond between her and him such as then could bo between no other people in the world. For half a fainting heart beat, she thought she had inadu him, for half as long again ho thought she had. Hhe felt her heart irradiato with s te. der warmth toward her husband's father. She fell ou her knees b?sidu him and kissed bis baud. "Oh, my father," she said, "you must forgive us. for wo love you!" As for Mr. Van Nore, I never saw anybody happier than bu was, somo week afterward, ou his way home with his party.
