t jo t h. realm at dlMue tha fact, at In¬

rible, fateful and OYcrwhelmlng. Ko fact of
nature U jnore pregnant with awful mean¬
ing than the fact of the inheritance of
disease. It meets the physician on hit daily
rounda, paralysing his art and filling him
with dismay- The legend of tho ancient
Greeks pictures the Furies as pursuing
families from generation to generation,
rendering them desolate. Tho Furies still
ply their work of terror and death, but they
are not now clothed, la tho gerb of supersti¬
tion. but appear lu the more Intelligible but
uo less awful form of hereditary disease.
Modern science, which has llfnmlnated so
many dark corners of nature, has abed a
BCW light on the ominous Words of the
Scriptures, “ Tho slug of the fathers shall bo
slatted upon the children unto the third and
fourth generation." Instances of hereditary
; disease abound. Fifty por cent, of cases of
consumption, that fearful destroyer of fami¬
lies, of cancer and scrofula, run in families
r through Inheritance. Insanity Is hereditary
in a marked degree, but, fortunately, like
many other hereditary diseases, tends to
wear Itself out, the stock becoming extinct.
A distinguished scientist truly says: "No
organ or texture of t)io body Is exempt from
the chance of being the subject of hereditary
disease.” Probably more chronic diseases,
which permcusutly modify tho structure
and functions of the body, are more or less
liable to be inherited. The Important and
far-reaching practical deductions from such
facts—affecting so powerfully tho happiness
of Individuals anil families and the collect Ira
welfare of the nation-are obvious to reflec¬
ting minds. and the best means for prevent¬
ing or curing these diseases Is a subject of
Intense Interest to all. Fortunately nature
has provided si remedy, which experience
has attested aa infallible, and the remedy Is
the world famous Swift’s Specific, a pure
vcgotablo compound—nature's antidote for
all blood poisons. To the afflicted It Is a

CHAPTER IV.
THE EDUCATION OF A PHILOSOPHER.
The installation of the adopted stable boy
was thus happily effected,- and the wheel*
of life continued to run smoothly in the doc¬
tor's house. Jean-Marie did his horse and
carriage duty in the morning; sometime*
helped in the housework; sometimes walked
abroad with tho .doctor, to drink wisdom
from the fountain head; and was introduced
at night to the sciences and the dead tongues.
He retained his singular placidity of mind
and manner; he was rarely in fault; hut ha
made only a very partial progress in hi*
studies, and remained much of a stranger in
the family.
The doctor was a pattern of regularity.
All forenoon ho worked on his great book,
the “Comparative Pharmacopoeia, or His¬
torical Dictionary of all Medicines,” w hich
as yet consisted principally of slips of paper
and pins. When finished, it was to fill many
personable volumes and to combine anti¬
quarian interest with professional utility.
But the doctor was studious of literary graces
and the picturesque; an anecdote, a touch of
manners, a moral qualification, or a sound¬
ing epithet was sure to be preferred before a
piece of science; a little more, and he would
have written the “Comparative Pharma¬
copoeia'’in verse! The article “Mummia,”
for instance, was already complete, though
the remainder of the work had not progressed
beyond the letter A. It was exceedingly
copious and entertaining, written with
quaintness and color, exact, erudite, a lit¬
erary article; but it would hardly have af¬
forded guidance to a practicing physician of
today. The feminine good sense of his wife
had led her to point this out with uncom¬
promising sincerity; for the dictionary was
duly read aloud to her, betwixt sleep and
waking, as it proceeded toward an infinitely
distant completion; and the doctor was a lit¬
tle sore on the subject of mummies, and some¬
times resented an allusion with asperity.
After the midday mqal and a proper pe¬
riod of digestion he walked, sometimes alone,
sometimes accompanied by Jean-Marie; for
madame would have preferred any hardship
rather than walk.
She was, as I have said, a very busy per¬
son, continually occupied about material
comforts and ready to drop asleep over a
novel the instant she was disengaged. ThI*
was the less objectionable, as she never
snored or grew distempered in complexion
when she slept. On the contrary, she looked
tho very picture of luxurious and appetizing
ease, and woke without a start to the perfect
possession of her faculties. I am afraid she
was greatly an animal, but she was a very
nice animal to have about. In this way sh*
had nttie to do with Jean-Marie; nut the
sympathy which had been established between
them on the first night remained unbroken.
They held occasional conversations, mostly
on household matters. To tho extreme disap¬
pointment of tho doctor, they occasionally
sallied off together to that temple of debas¬
ing superstition, the village church. Madame
and he, both in their Sunday’s best, drove
twice a month to Fontainebleau and re¬
turned laden with purchases, and, in short,
although the doctor still continued to regard
them as irreconcilably antipathetic, their re¬
lation was as intimate, friendly and confi¬
dential as their natures suffered.
I fear, however, that in her heart of hearts,
madame kindly despised and pitied the boy.
She had no admiration for his class of vir¬
tues; she liked a smart, polite, forward,
roguish sort of boy, cap in hand, light Af
foot, meeting the eye; she liked volubility,
charm, a little vice—the promise of a second
Dr. Desprez. And it was her indefeasible
belief that Jean-Marie was dull. “Poor dear
boy,” she had said once, “how sad it is that
he should be so stupid!” She had never re¬
peated that remark, for the doctor had raged
like a wild bull, denouncing the brutal blunt¬
ness of her mind, bemoaning his own fate to
be so unequally mated with an ass, and, what
touched Anastasio more nearly, menacing
the table china by the fury of his gesticula¬
tions. But she adhered silently to her opin¬
ion; and when Jean-Marie was sitting, stolid,
blank, but not unhappy, over his unfinished
tasks, she would snatch her opportunity in
the doctor’s absence, go over to him, put her
arms about his neck, lay her cheek to his,
and communicate her sympathy with his
distress. “Do not mind,” she would say;
“I, too, am not at all clever, and I can assure
you that it makes no difference in life.”
The doctor’s view was naturally different.
That gentleman never wearied of the sound
of his own voice, which was, to say the truth,
agreeable enough to hear. He now had a
listener, who was not so cynically indifferent
as Anastasle, and who sometimes put him on
his mettle by the most relevant objections.
Besides, was he not educating the boy? And
education, philosophers are agreed, is the
most philosophical of duties. What can be
more heavenly to poor mankind than to have
one’s hobby grow into a duty to the state?
Then, indeed, do the ways of life become
ways of pleasantness. Never had the doctor
seen reason to be more content with his en¬
dowments. Philosophy flowed smoothly from
his lips. He was so agile a dialectician that
he could trace his nonsense, when challenged,
back to some root in sense, and prove it to be
a sort of flower upon his system. He slipped
out of antinomies like a fish, and left his dis¬
ciple marveling at tho rabbi’s depth.
Moreover, deep down in his heart the doc¬
tor was disappointed with the ill success of
his more formal education. A boy, chosen
by so acute an observer for his aptitude, and
guided along the path of learning by so phil¬
osophic an instructor, was bound, by the
nature of the universe, to make a more obvi¬
ous and lasting advance. Now Jean-Marie
was slow in all thing*, impenetrable in
others; and his power of forgetting was fully
on a level with his power to learn. Therefore,
the doctor cherished his peripatetic lectures,
to which the boy attended, which he gener¬
ally appeared to enjoy, and by which lie
often profited.
Many and many were the talks they had
together; and health and moderation proved
the subject of the doctor's divagations. To
these he lovingly returned.
"I lead you,” he would say, “by the green
pastures. My system, my beliefs, my medi¬
cines, are resumed in one phrase—to avoid
excess. Blessed nature, healthy, temperate
nature, abhors and exterminates excess. Hu¬
man law, in this matter, imitates at a great
distance her provisions; and we must strive
to supplement the efforts of the law. Yes,
boy, we must be a law to ourselves and for
our neighbors—lex armata armed, em¬
phatic, tyrannous law. If you see a crapu¬
lous human ruin snuffing, dash him from hi*
box! The judge, though in a wav an admis¬
sion of disease, is less offensive to me than
either the doctor or the priest. Above all
the doctor—the doctor and the purulent trash
and garbage of his pharmacopoeia! Pure
air—from the neighborhood of a pinctunt
for the sake of the turpentihe-un
adulterated wine, and the reflections of an un¬
sophisticated ipirit in tbe presence of the
works of nature—these, my boy, are the best
medical appliances and the best religious
comforts Devote rouself to these Hark!
there are the tells oi hour roti cuw man ist in
the north, It will be fair!. How clear and
airy i* the sound! It* nerve* are harmon¬
ised and quieted; the mind attuned to silence;
and obeerve bow easily and regularly heats
the heart! Your unenlightened doctor would
see nothing in these sensations; and yet you
yourself perceive they are a part of health.
Did you remember yoar cinchona this morn¬
ing? Good. Cinchona also is a work of na¬
ture; it is, after all, only the bark of a tree
which we might gather for ourselves if we
lived In the locality. What a world is this!
Though n professed atheist, I delight to bear
my testimony to the world. Look at the
gratuitous remedies and pleasures that sur¬
round our path! The river runs by the gar¬
den end, our bath, our fish pond, our natnr&l
system of drainage. There is a well in the
court which sends up sparkling water from
the earth's very heart, dean, cool and with
a little wine most wholesome. The dis¬
trict is notorious for its salubrity; rheuma¬
tism is the only prevalent complaint, and I
myself have never had a touch of it. 1 tell
you—and my opinion is based upon the cold¬
est, clearest processes of reason—if I, if you,
desired to leave this home of pleasures it
would be the duty, it would lie the privilege,
of our best friend to prevent us with a pistol
bullet.”
One beautiful June day they sat upon the
hill outside tho village. The river, mi blue as
heaven, shone here and there among the foli¬
age. The indefatigable birds turned and
flickered about Gretz church tower. A
healthy wind blew from over the forest, and
the sound of innumerable thousands of tree
tops and innumerable millions on millions of
green leaves was abroad in the air, and filled
the ear with something between whispered
speech and singing. It seemed as if every
blade of grass must hideacigale; anti the
fields rang merrily with their music, jingling
far and near, os with the sleigh bells of the
fairy queen. From their station on the slope
the eye embraced a large space of poplared
plain upon the one hand, the waving hill
tope of the forest on the other, and Gretz it¬
self in the middle, a handful of roofs. Under
the bestriding arch of the blue heavens, the
place seemed dwindled to a toy. It seemed
incredible that people dwelled, and could find
room to turn or air to breathe, in such a cor¬
ner of the w arid. The thought came home
to the boy, perhaps for the first time, and he
gave it words.
“How small it looks!" he sighed.
“Ay,” replied tho doctor, “small enough
now. Yet it was once a walled city; thriv¬
ing, full of furred burgesses and men in ar¬
mor, humming with affairs — with tall
spires, for aught I know, and portly towers
along the battlements. A thousand chim¬
neys ceased smoking at the curfew bell.
There were gibbets at the gate as thick as
scarecrows. In time of war, the assault
swarmed against it with ladders, the arrows
fell like leaves, the defenders sallied hotly
over the drawbridge, each side uttered its
cry as they plied their weapons. Do you
know that the walls extended as far as th*
Commanderie? Tradition so reports. Alas,
what a long way off is all this confusion-
nothing left of it but my quiet words spoken
in your ear—and tho town itself shrunk to
the hamlet underneath us! By and by came
the English wars—you shall hear more of the
English, a stupid people, who sometimes
blundered into good— and Gretz was taken,
sacked and burned. It is the history of
many towns; but Gretz never arose again; it
was never rebuilt; its ruins were a quarry to
serve the growth of rivals; and tho stones of
Gretz aro now erect along the streets of Ne¬
mours. It gratifies me that our old house
was the first to rise after the calamity; when
the town had come to an end, it inaugurated
the hamlet.”
“I, too, am glad of that,” said Jean-Marie.
“It should bo the temple of tho humbler
virtues,” responded the doctor, with a savory
gusto. “Perhaps one of tho reasons why I
lovo my little hamlet as I do, is that we have
a similar history, she and I. Have I told
you that I was once rich?”
“I do not thifik so,” answered Jean-Marie.
“I do not think I should have forgotten. 1
am sorry you should have lost your fortune."
“Sorry7’ cried the doctor. “Why, I find I
have scarce begun your education after all.
Listen to me! Would you rather live in the old
Gretz or in the new, free from the alarms of
war, with the green country at tho door,
without noise, passports, the exactions of tha
soldiery, or the jangle of the curfew boll to
send us off to bed by sundown?”
“I suppose I should prefer the new,” re¬
plied the boy.
“Precisely,” returned the doctor. “So do
I. And, in tho same way, I prefer my
present moderate fortu*e to my former
wealth. Golden mediocrity! cried the adora¬
ble ancients; and I subscribe to their enthu¬
siasm, Have I not good wino, good food,
good air, the fields and the forest for my
walk, a house, an admirable wife, a boy
whom I protest I Cherish like a son? Now, if
1 were still rich, I should indubitably make
my residence in Paris—you know Paris—
Pari* and paradise are not convertible terms.
This pleasant noise of the wind streaming
among leaves changed into the grinding
babel of the street, the stupid glare of plaster
substituted for this quiet pattern of greens
and grays, the nerves shattered, tho diges¬
tion falsified—picture the fall! Already you
perceive the consequences; the mind is stimu¬
lated, the heart steps to a different measure,
and the man is himself no longer. I have
passionately studied myself—tho true busi¬
ness of philosophy. I know my character as
the musician knows the ventages of his flute.
Should I return to Paris I should ruin my¬
self gambling; nay, I go further—I should
break the heart of my Anastasie yith infi¬
delities.”
This was too much for Jean-Marie. That
a place should so transform the most excel¬
lent of men transcended his belief. Paris,
he protested, was even an agreeable place of
residence. “Nor when I livt-1 in that city
did I feel much difference,” he pleaded.
“What!” cried the doctor. “Did you not
steal when you were there?’
But the boy could never be brought to see
that he had done anything wrong when ho
stole. Nor, indeed, did the doctor think he
had; bat that gentleman was never very
scrupulous when in want of a retort.
“And now,” he concluded, “do you begin
to understand? My only friends were those
who ruined me. Gretz has been my acad¬
emy, my sanatorium, my heaven of innocent
pleasures. If millions are offered me I ware
them back; Retro, Sathanas! Evil one be¬
gone! Fix your mind on my example; de¬
spise riches, avoid the debasing influence of
cities. Hygiene—hygiene and mediocrity of
fortune—these be your watchwords during
life!”
The doctor's system of hygiene .strikingly
coincided with his tastes; and his picture of
a perfect life was a faithful description of
the one he was leading at the time. But it is
easy to convince a boy, whom you supply
with ail the facts for the di*cussion. And
besides there was one thing admirable in the
philosophy, and that was the enthusiasm of
the philosopher. Thera was never any one
more vigorously determined to be pleased;
and if he was not a great logician, and so
had no right to convince the intellect, he
was certainly something of a poet, and had
a fascination to seduce the heart. What he
could not achieve in hi* customary humor of
a radiant admiration of himself and his cir¬
cumstances, he some times effected in his fits
of gloom. If
“Bov.” be would say, *yvoid me todav.
I were mi iik-, \uuuur * wonm eten neg tor an

tapping o;i Lin breast. "The vice* of my na¬
ture .ini bow uppermost; innocent pleasure*
woo me in vatu; I long for Paris, for my
wallowing .n the mire. Nee." he continued,
producing a handful of -iDor, “f denude

Doubtless the doctor enjoyed ; ,. j little
scenes, as a variation in his part; . :ey repre¬
sented tlw Byronic element in the somewhat
artificial poetry of his existence; but to tho
boy, though he was dimly aware of their
theatricality, they represented more. Tha
doctor made perhaps too little, the boy pos¬
sibly too much, of the reality and gravity of
these temptations.
One day a greatlight shone for Jean Marie.
“Could not riches lie used well?” be asked.
“In theory, yes,” replied thedoctor. “But
it is found in experience that no one does so.
All the world imagine they will be excep¬
tional when they - grow wealthy; but posses¬
sion is debasing, new desires spring up , and
the silly taste for ostentation eats out tho
heart of pleasure.”
“Then you might be better if you had less,”
said the boy.
“Certainly not,” replied the doctor; but
his voice quavered as he spoke.
“Why?” Remanded pitiless innocence.
Dr. Desprez saw all the colors of the rain¬
bow in a moment; the stable universe ap¬
peared to bo about capsizing with him. “Be¬
cause,” said he—affecting deliberation after
an obvious paused-"because I have formed
my life for my present income. It is not
good for men of my years to be violently
dissevered from their habits.”
That was a sharp brush. The doctor
breathed hard, and fell into taciturnity for
the afternoon. As for the boy, ho was de¬
lighted with the resolution of his doubts;
even wondered that he had not foreseen tho
obvious and conclusive answer. * His faith
in the doctor was a stout piece of goods.
Desprez was inclined to lie a sheet in tha
wind’s eye after dinner, (especially after
Rhine wine, his favorite weakness. Ho
would then remark on the warmth of his
feeling for Anastasie, and w ith inflamed
cheeks and u loose, flustered smile, debate
upon all sorts of topics, and bo feebly and
indiscreetly witty. But the adopted stable
boy would not permit himself to entertain a
doubt that savored of ingratitude. It is
quite true that a man may lie a second father
to you, and yet take too much to drink; but
the best natures ars evtr slew te accept ncta
truths.
The doctor thoroughly possessed his heart,
but perhaps he exaggerated his
over his mind. Certainly Jean-Maris
adopted some of his master’s opinions, put
have yet to learn that he ever
one of his own. Convictions existed in
by divine right; they were virgin, un¬
wrought, tho brute metal of decision.
could add othens indeed, but he could not
away; neither did he care if they were
fectly agreed among themselves; and
spiritual pleasures had nothing to do
turning them over or justifying them
words. IVords were with him a mere
jflishment, like dancing. When he was
himself, his pleasures were almost vegetable.
He would slip into the vnods toward
and sit in the mouth of a cave among
birches. His soul stared straight out of
eyes; he did not move or think,
thin shadows moving in the wind, the
of firs against tho sky, occupied and
his faculties. Ho was pure unity, a
wholly abstracted. A single mood filled
to which all the objects of sense
os tbe colors of the spectrum merge and
appear in white light.
8d while the doctor made himself
with words, the adopted stable boy
himself with silence.
