CHAPTER TX.
Hartmann ENCOURAGED


The fact that so long time had
passed since Blanche had received
news from her father was beginning
to cause her very great anxiety. True,
he had warned her that this might oc-
cur; and he had begged of her to be
troubled by no useless fears if at any
time all communication between them
should cease. Nevertheless, try as
she would, she could not keep OF the
horrible fears which oppressed her,
and which deepened day by day.
At the chateau there was nothing
now to interest her; for even her pa
tient had passed out of her hands.
Blessed with a good constitution, he
had rapidly regained strength; and
according to the gossip OF the SER
wants, it was more the bright eyes OF
Blanche de Gavrolles than his MANNED
arm which kept him at the chateau,
for they, quicker to perceive than
their young mistress, had looked into
the solkier's eyes and read his secret
admiration. For some time he, too.
was blind to the truth: he only knew
that the days of his convalescence at
the chateau of Grandpre were the
haypiest days of his life.
But at last, as he stood at his win
dow watching the slim figure Of the
young girl as she moved up and down
the terrace, the truth came to him
with startling vividness. It was a
terrible discovery, and in those first
few moments brought him almost as
much pain as pleasure. Nevertheless,
the truth must be acknowledged; and
in acknowledging it, he knew
that Blanche de Gavrolles was likely
to become more to him than his coun-
try or his life.
What was to be doneP Should he
repay good with evil-acknowledge
her sweet charity and gentle good
ness by remaining. trying to make
her love him, and so bring upon her
all the horror and misery which such
love must causeP whereas, If he left
her now, he could do SO, he believed,
without causing her one single pang.
And yet. how could he goP He
was a prisoner. True, he was not
strictly guarded. but he had given his
word. Must he break his parole,
quietly effect his escape. and leave
behind him tainted name for Blanche
to think of? No! he could not do
that He owed her much, but he

WHEN LrNNIE CAME HOME.

The day when Linnie came home came homo
The birds in the tree-tops knew.
And the blossoms sweet fell down at her feet
a glance from her eyes of bluel
And the birds sanz sweet:
'She has come once morei"
And the roses kissed her
At tho door
The day when Linnie came home, came home
The sun beamed bright that day;
Tho beos made sweeter the honeycomh
And tho lilies leaned In her way
And the south wind sang:
't5he hath como once morer'
And the sunshine kissed her
Al the doorl
The day whom Linnie came home, came hone
Tho hi h and splendid skies
That smiling bent where nor footsteps won't
Were nearly as blue as her eyesl
And the birds sang sweet:
She has come once moreI"
And my lad heart met her
At the doorl

The Clam Does Move Forward.

The clam is commonly taken for an
example of all that is unprogressive,
but he is by no means a stationary
creature. Every man bred at the sea-
side knows how clam left upon the
sand will utterly disappear by sinking
himself below the surface; but the
clam also has a forward movement,
and will travel thirty feet in the
course Of a week. The large muscle
of the clam, which helps to make him
indigestible, is his single leg, and by
the aid of this he makes his progress.

Houzel strobe up unceremoniously,
and addressed the German officer.
"Come back. You are wanted at
the chateau"
Hartmann turned. looking back. In
front OF Grandpre stood a file of
soldiers and an officer. While he
hesitated Houzel cried, savagely.
"Come back! Are you listeningp
At once!'
Hartmann's pale face flushed angrily.
"You are not polite, my FRIEND" he
said. However, since they want me,
will return"
Saluting Blanche respectfully, Hart
mann moved as rapidly as his strength
would permit him, back to the
chateau. Blanche followed, trembling
violently. When they drew near, the
soldiers stepped forward and sur
rounded the German, while grizzled
French officer, full of excitement and
Importance, stood and gave the word
of command.
"Forward with your prisoner!'
Behind the officer stood lieutenant,
and close by, Huet the doctor. Hart
mann saluted in military fashion, and
stood waiting to be questioned.
"Your name?"
"Heinrich Won Hartmann, captain
of the 10th Uhlans."
"You were wounded and taken
prisoner several days ago, while re-
connoitering near this placep"
Hartmann bowed.
"Hump! Have you anything more
to saw for yourself2"
Nothing, save that 1 am now q
prisoner on parole"
The officer looked at him from head
to foot.
'How are we to know that you are
not one of the enemy's spies? On
your honor, have you held any COM
munication since your capture?''
'None. l have only just risen from
my bed, and, as you see, am still an
invalid"
Every WE'LL" said the officer with a
scowl; you will have to accompany
us to Fecamp."
"On foot, monsieur?"
'On foot! The devil! you look
strong enough. Yes, on foot. Do
you want a carriage and pair?"
Here Blanche interfered, and
pleaded SO we'll with the officer, who
knew and treated her with great re-
spect, that he consented to let the
German remain at Grandpre for an
other twenty-four hours; after which,
if he was still too weak to march to
Fecamp, he should be taken thither in
some kind of conveyance. Perhaps
the officer would not have consented
quite SO readily had DR.. Huet not been
present; but few words from the
doctor convinced him that to remove
Hartmann summarily would be an act
of great brutality.
The soldiers departed, accompanied
by DR.. Huet, and once more Hart
mann and Blanche were left together.
~ have once more to thank you,"
sail the German. Really, you seem
to be my good angel"
"Please do not speak of it, replied
Blanche, drooping her eyes before the
ardent look of gratitude which he
bent upon her face. ''You are well
come here until you are strong enough
to go away"
Before she knew what he was doing.
he stopped and kissed her hand-so
respectfully, and yet SO ardently, that
she blushed red as crimson. Then, as
she turned her face away, she became
conscious of the presence OF Houzel
the keeper.
His eyes were averted, but his face
was flushed and burning, and the
great black veins stood out upon his
temples, while his hands spasmodical-
ly gripped his gun.

After row with his wife, who vio-
lently expressed wish that he was
dead, an Irishman said; "Oh, it's q
