BLUES HARMONICA LESSONS: who gave himself up to torments for our sake. His sufferings, His blood, will save us. Brothers and sisters," he said, again with tears in his voice, "let us praise the Lord, who has given His only begotten son for the redemption of mankind. His holy blood . . ." Nekhludoff felt so deeply disgusted that he rose silently, and frowning and keeping back a groan of shame, he left on tiptoe, and went to his room. CHAPTER XVIII. OFFICIALDOM. Hardly had Nekhludoff finished dressing the next morning, just as he was about to go down, the footman brought him aBLUES HARMONICA LESSONS: card from the Moscow advocate. The advocate had come to St. Petersburg on business of his own, and was going to be present when Maslova's case was examined in the Senate, if that would be soon. The telegram sent by Nekhludoff crossed him on the way. Having found out from Nekhludoff when the case was going to be heard, and which senators were to be present, he smiled. "Exactly, all the three types of senators," he said. "Wolf is a Petersburg official; Skovorodnikoff is a theoretical, and Bay a practical lawyer, and therefore the most alive of them all," said the

"That's good; we can go together. I shall give you a lift." As they were going to start, a footman met Nekhludoff in the ante-room, and handed him a note from Mariette: _Pour vous faire plaisir, f'ai agi tout a fait contre mes principes et j'ai intercede aupres de mon mari pour votre protegee. Il se trouve que cette personne pout etre relaxee immediatement. Mon mari a ecrit au commandant. Venez donc disinterestedly. Je

A woman whom they are keeping in solitary confinement for seven months turns out to be quite innocent, and only a word was needed to get her released." "That's always so. Well, anyhow, you have succeeded in getting what you wanted." "Yes, but this success grieves me. Just think what must be going on there. Why have they been keeping her?"
