CHAPTER Nv.
THE GENDARMES,

There was but little sleep in the cot
tage that night. The whole party, ex-
cept Nine. Beaumont, were each trying
to outwake the other. Robert wanted
an opportunity to dig up the hidden
money, SO also Beaumont, and each with
an entirely different motive, while poor
Marie, with increasing dread, wanted to
be rid of the money at any cost, for she
feared that Robert might at any mo-
ment find it in her pocket, from which
she had not dared to remove it lest he
should discover her in the act. Added
to all this pain was the anguish of COM
ing motherhood and the fear that the
very strain which she was now undergo
ing might imperil the life Of her unborn
child.
Seeing that she was not sleeping, Rob
ert in his impotence flung himself moi
silly about, and by the sound he thus
made in:his impatientanger deferred the

court inquiry, ana inquiry meant dan
ger-danger not only to herself, but to
her husband.
So with sick heart she went about
her household work, fearing something
new and more dreadful than the last
at every sound that smOte on her ear.
That day seemed to be Of endless
length. All the time she was possessed
of an absorbing desire to get away by
herself, even for few minutes, but
each time she made the effort some hor-
rid fate seemed to thwart her purpose.
At one time it was her mother wanted
assistance, at another it was that she
had to prepare the dinner for her father
and her husband, then neighbor drop
ped in to gossip, and she dared not try
to get rio of her lest an action 80 unusual
on her part should invite suspicion.
/ II illdoers only knew at the first what
misery there is to one and all who come
in touch with their crime, there would
perhaps be less i'll done in the world! 1t
is part, and large part, too, of tho
devils opportunity that the conse-
quences-remote as we'll as Immediate
OF his service are not apparent at the
first.
Robert did not come to dinner, but a lit
tie later he turned up, and as something
had to be got ready for him there was an
other postponement Of Marie's purpose.
He was in excellent humor and laughed
and hummed tunes and sang songs in the
of c%r inc rst
in her breast as heavy as lead and
weighed down morally with the terrible
doubts as to the propriety of her action,
had to listen and even to join in the mer-
riment. 1t seemed to her that she had to
endure martyrdom and that all those
whom she loved were in conspiracy to
cause her pain.
At last the day wore away, but with
out single opportunity of her hiding
away the money. In despair she took
the earliest opportunity of going to bed,
alleging that she was tired. To her hor-
ror Robert said that he was tired also. as
he had not slept we'll the night before
and SO would also retire to bed.
When Robert said that he had not
slept we'll on the previous night, his IA
ther-in-law gave quick, suspicious
glance under his eyebrows. No one
noticed it but Marie, to whom it brought
unspeakable anguish, for she knew that
suspicion once aroused on the old mans
part must unfailingly lead to discovery.
She seemed almost to see into her IA
theirs mind and to read there the inten-
ton of changing the hiding place of the
money.
Thus she was hedged with danger on
every side. If her father should seek at
once to make the change. he would make
the discovery Of the robbery, and if
search was made the money would ac-
tually be found on her. If her husband
should seek to steal this night the money
from the place where he believed it to be
before she could dispose of it, he would
most likely suspect some trick and take
action accordingly. The result would
be that he would either get the money or
she would have to denounce him, and
from either alternative, it is needless to
say, she shrank.

Is Marriage a FalInrea

During the past twenty years 1928, 900
divorces have been granted by the
courts of the United States, 90 per cent.
OF them to women. While this total is
large enough to appear to give some
grounds for the assertion that the per-
petuity Of the family is threatened. II
dwindles when brought into compari.
son with the number of marriages
during the same period. One-tweutieth
OF the total is 1G,4OO. the number grant
ed each year only about per cent. of
the number of marriages. There Is
nothing in the world that human be-
lngs undertake to do that can show so
small a percentage of failures as mar
riages. Though statistics are not at
hand to prove it, there is doubt II di
vorces much exceed golden weddings
in number. They certainly do not ex-
coed silver weddings in number. In
vestigation Of the subject of Improper
marriages would seem to offer more
hope Of results beneficial to society
than examination of divorce statistics.

Novel omciaI custom Il oeorr,a.

In olden times Georgia's governors
swore themselves in. They did not
have chief justice or any other Off
cial to administer the oath. They sim
ply picked up Bible, repeated the
form in first person saying: II solemn
~ swear" etc, and they kissed the
book. They did this in the presence of
the general assembly, and it was a
solemn ceremony. Time passed, that
custom died out, and governors had the
chief justice of the state to repeat the
oath and they would kiss the Bible.
When Gen. Gordon was to be inaugu-
rated the second time, Chief Justice
Bleclxley suggested that he get up and
swear himself in. It was the old style
and it was good way to do it, said the
justice. Gen. Gordon acted ON the adj
vice, swore himself in, and was criti-
cised for doing it. Some of the papers
said he was in such hurry that he did
not wait for Judge Bleckley to admin
lister the oath.-Atlanta Constitution.

no and known everywhere in the state
as the most interchangeable worker for
party success of all the working men
in the party ranks
Under these capable young leaders
the wavering, faltering hopes of the
party took life again and grew until
the party became strong in it own
confidence and strength, and moved
forward to battle and the victory won.
Idaho is no longer safe Repub' :
can state. It has been taken from
that column by our gallant young
leaders and placed in the doubtful
column with all the vantage ground
on the side of the Democrats. With
the federal offices that will be given
us, with the state senate, and the
county offices we shall control during
the next two years, We may confident
ly look for complete Democratic
victory in 1894. The Republicans
can have no hope of return to pres
tlge and power unless it be from dis
agreement and discussion ia our own
RANKS. There may he some danger
from that direction. Some members
with the hope of self preferment, adj
vancement and party influence, may
take positions touching the control
and distribution of federal patronage
in the state, now that the Democrats
have no representation in the national
congress, that may threaten rupture
in the ranks; but we believe the Wis
dom in the party at home, and the
great party leaders at Washington,
will put check on all such individual
assumption and forever remove all
dangers that may come from that
source.
The party in the state holds win
ming position, and those who have
placed it there should be entitled to
all the recognition and support that
belongs to them for their faithful
services and careful handling Of the
party reins.

Looking Backward.

Mrs Elmeda Il. Bowen of Monroe, Me.
is the wife of Deacon jeremiah Bowen of
that town. April "a, 1854, being justifably
alarmed concerning her health, she called.
in one of the leading physicians of this
county who found her affected with Sc
we're cough, accompanied with night sweats,
hectic flush, and great emaciation; her
pulse was 1870, her temperature io4 -, and
she manifested all the symptoms of tuber-
cular consumption. Examination ascer.
tanned the existence of large cavity in the
left lung. Inquiry disclosed tina, she was
having frequent, almost daily hemorrhages.
Within the preceding two years. Mrs Row
ems mother and two sisters had died from
consumption.
The physician was then commencing, in
his private practice, the use of the remedy
now known as Rodolf's New Medical Dis
covery. He prescribed ii for Mrs. Bowen.
Under this treatment she steadily improved
until on the nth of the following September,
she was SO nearly well rs to dispense with
his attendance, tho continuing to take the
medicine for several months. at the end Of
which time she had entirely recovered.
Eight years have passed since then, and
Mrs. Bowen is to-day plump, healthy woman
who feels that she owes her life and restored
health 10 Rolos's New Medical Discovery
and gladly tesiiiies to that fact, as may be
verified by writing To her concerning her
case and iuclusjug stamps for reply.
There are hundreds of thousands today
wasting away with the same deadly dis
ease who might be saved by the timely and
persistent use of Rodolfs New Medical
! Discovery together with Rodolfs Cream
Emulsion. These remedies have been tested
and perfected by eminent regular physi-
clans, AMI are prescribed by such where
/ known. They have proved themselves to

ton, serofuia, rheumatism, debility, and all
humors and impurities of the blood. Try
