"Money is of no value; it

pends upon the skill OF the

All purchasers are not ex-

either in quality, in quantity,
or price. We have been fill
ing and propose still to fill
the deficiency in either Of the
above particulars by continu-
ing to refund the money for
any purchase made from us
when returned in good con-
dition, thus enabling our GUS

where (if such a thing be pos
sible, which we do not mean
shall be), or to make another
selection in place of the un-
satisfactory one.

CHAPTER VIII.
AFTER THE SENTENCE,

Al IBh IhE SEN IENCE.
Sarcany was taken back to the cell he oc-
cupied at the bottom of the elliptic corri-
dor on the second floor of the donion.
Sand0rf end his two friends, during the
last hours of life that remained to them,
Were quartered in a large cell on the same
level. exactly at the end of the major axis
OF the ellipse which this corridor made.
The secret was now known. The con-
demned were to be left together until their
execution.
This was consolation, even pleasure
for them. when they found themselves
alone, and allowed to give way to feel
ings which they could not at first re-
strain.
My friends" said Sandorf. 81 am the
cause of your DEATH But have nothing
to ask your pardon for! We worked for
the independence of Hungary! Our cause
was just! 1t is our duty to defend her! 1t
is an honor to die for her.''
Matthias" said Bathory, ''we thank you
for having associated us with you in the
patriotic work which would have been the
work Of all your life"
LAS we are associated with you in
deathr' added Zathmar.
Then, during a momentary silence. the
three gaZed round the gloomy cell in which
they were to spend their last hours. a.
narrow window some four or five feet high,
cut through the thick wall of the donjon,
let IN certain amount of light. There
. were three iron bedsteads, few chairs. a
table, and a shelf or two on which were q
few articles Of crockery.
Zathmar and Bathory were soon lost in
thought
Sandorf began to walk up and down the
cell.
Zathmar was alone in the world. had no
family ties. and no near relations There
was only his old servant, Borik, to mourn
for him.
1t was not so with Bathory. His death
would not only prove blow to himself.
He had a wife and son whom it would
reach. That wife and child might even die,
And if they survived him, how were thew
to live? What was TO be the future of a
pennileSs woman and her eight-year-old
child? Had Bathory possessed any prop
erty. how much Of it would remain after a
judgment which directed it to be confscated
and sentenced him to death?
AS for SandOrf, all his past life returned
to him. His wife came to him. His little
daughter came-a child 2 years old. now
left to the care Of the steward. And these
were his friends whom he had led to min
lie asked himself if he had done well, if he
had not gone farther than his duty towards
his country required? Would that the pun
ishment had fallen on him alone. and not
upon those that were innocent.

Then the voices were silent, and the
sound of door being shut was heard.
''Sarcanyi Silas Toronthal," exclaimed
Sandorf. That is where it came 'FRONT.'
He looked at his friends, and was quite
pale. His heart stopped beating in the
grip of the spaSm. His ewes dilated. his
neck stiffened, his head sank back 10 his
shoulder-everything showed that his ener-
getic nature was in the grasp of terrible
anger, excited to its furthest extreme
