SECRET OF A HEARTACHE. CHARLOTTE BRONTE'S LOVE LETTERS,

SLAVE OF REGHET.

One of the most interesting literary discoveries made for some time was given to the world in the issue of The Times, of July 29th, which contained four hitherto unpublished letters written by Charlotte Bronte to Professor Teger, the i Loriginal of Paul Bmanuel-in-Villette

These letters, which reveal a love-story at once passionate and tragic, have for long been in the possession of Dr. Heger's family, and his eldest son has now handed them over to the care of the British Museum. In doing so, he has been actuated largely by regard for ROYING

his father's memory, for there have not been wanting persons who suggested that there was something in the relations between Heger and Charlotte Bronte that called for concealment, The letters prove not only the tragie depth of Charlotte's devotion to the professor, but the determined cold. ness with which he, a married mat and a happy father, discouraged her to unrestrained affection. One of those curious mixtures of despotie temper and good-heartedness, he even forbade her to write to him, except at certain intervals, and in her letters we find her crying out in despair at his long failures to perform his share of the correspondence.

Charlotte Bronte, it will be renc bered, had gone to the Heger's school in Brussels, first as a pupil and then as a teacher, and had finally left it at the end of 1843, about six months before the first of these letters was written. She presents herself in each of them as

HUMILIATING.

That, surely, is as tragic a leller as ever was penned. The literature of vainlonging contains nothing more poignant. And the fourth of the letters itters the same cry of wretchedness.

"I tell you frankly that I bave tried meanwhile to forget you, for the remem brance of a person whom one thinks never to see..again, and whom, nevertheless, one, greatly esteems, frety too much the mind; and when one has suffered that kind of anxiety for a year or two, one is ready to do anything to find peace once more. I have done everything: I have sought Occupations; 1 bave denied myself absolutely the pleasure of speaking about you even to Einity; but I have been able to conquer neither my regrets nor my irapatience. That, indeed, is humiliating -to be unable to control one's own thoughts, to be the slave of a regret, of

nemury, the slave of a fixed and dominant idea which lords it over the mind. Why cannot I have just as much friendship for you as you for me--neither more nor less? Then should I be so tranquil, so free--I could keep silence then for ten years without an effort.”

She goes on to plead with him for a lettera letter, not of reproach, but! really about himself:

ITS CAUSE AND

CURE.

This distressing complaint so common in all hot countries is caused by the Bile overflowing in the Blood. It is not an in- dependent disorder but the symptoms of other complaints which cause the Bile to overflow in this manner instead of entering the

intestines to perform its mission of aiding in the digestion and assimilation of food. Jaundice causes the skin and eyes to become yellow, and vomiting, nausea, diarrhæca, or constipation, loss of appetite, bad taste in the month, flatulence, belch- ing and pains in the stomach ́may all be accompanying symptoms. The disordered condition of the Liver is the most common cause of this complaint and a remedy that will reach the Liver is the only effective one. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills reach the Liver as no other remedy does, speedily causing the Bile to flow through its proper channel. They get at the cause of the complaint driving the poison out of the blood, and toning the entire system. There is no more effective remedy for this complaint, as a trial will prove, than Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills which are a positive and permanent cure for all Liver and Kidney dis orders, Constipation, Biliousness, Impure Blood, and Female Ailments.
