He did not hint for whom he had pre-
pared it, to wound afresh the daugh-
ter's grief
my men are bringing the needed
spoils from the chateau; must go and
bring them in, for 1 babe them leave
all at the edge Of the wood, not daring
to trust even those brave fellows with
the secret of this retreat. Can you,
mademoiselle, battle this poor suffer
er's head, while am gomez"
And bending over her, he whispered
DO not betray your name and rank.
He believes you to be lowly born
relative of mine; do not undeceive
him."
Felicie obeyed him promptly. It was
indeed blessed relief from torturing
thought to be doing anything. AS the
weary head sank feebly upon the pill
low with a moan Of anguish, she
dipped the cloth into the ever of water
standing near, and began bathing 1t
tenderly. She shuddered as she parted
the silky, brown hair, and saw the
frightful confusion, where some terri
BILE blow had fallen.
He does not look like peasant, so
delicately featured, with such refined
look" unused she. II have never seen
a finer face. 1t reminds me of some
princely youth have admired in pic
lures. Is it, indeed, to be proved
through this reign Of terror, to mis-
guided France that her noblemen must
be those of natures clubbing only?
Where will it end? and what will
become of me, wretched child that
I am, to have survived all that l hold
dear ?"
The last words were unconsciously
spoken aloud.
NAY, dearest one" responded the
voice of Emile, as he entered with his
arms full. IF this world were all, you
might have, cause for despair; but
when you remember that an angel
mother waits for your approach to an
other and brighter world, surely you
can pluck a rose even from the ashes
Of desolation; you are young, this
world may yet afford you the sweetest
and purest happiness. Be comforted,
my child-be calm and courageous"
Il will, my noble, generous friend, y
answered Felicie, with the first feeble
smile.

Il feared it," murmured Emile, anX-
iously; 'he will have a tedious illness,
at the very lightest. 1t is very unfor-
tunate, as l hoped to get away before
the general rising. But he deserves our
tenderest care; he is a noble youth.
met him first one of those wild nights
in Paris. The maddened crowd surg
ing back from the palace of the king,
were maltreating poor old priest,
who had ventured to rebuke them.
The young man, single-armed, without
a weapon of any kind, sprang to the
rescue of the poor wretch. l shall
never forget the picture, as he stood
in the middle Of the street, the red
torch-light flaring over his erect figure,
placed before the priest as a shield,
with his indignant, flashing eyes, his
heroic, defiant bearing. Ny heart went
out to him at once. For moment, too,
he held the crowd back-but, mon
Dieu! there were some demented crea-
lures who could have slaughtered an
innocent babe in it's mothers arms
without scruple. With a yell they
leaped upon him. Then it was my turn
to step forward. l had some power
then, and they yielded. So from that
time, I have watched the gallant fell
low, and never once has he disap-
pointed my high expectations. What
say you, Lady Felicie, shall we let him
die now?'
mo, no." cried the girl, eagerly; cit
shall be my task to nurse him back to
health"
Emile smiled quietly.
If it was much satisfaction to know
she would have an interesting employ
ment to keep her mind from brooding
over her misfortunes, and to beguilo
the weary time-he was wise enough
not to mention it.
But why do I waste the precious
timer" exclaimed he, suddenly. 81
must have everything safe below
ground, ere that disappointed villain
can return. He has met his deserts,
for all the diamonds he hoped to secure
have fallen into my possession. l need
not assure you they will be saved for
YOU"
''Why cannot I take the things at the
door? 1t will save you much time, and
the invalid is sound asleep"
Perhaps it will be wise; the time is
flying rapidly. Come then, and throw
down the ladder, as fast as bring the
goods"
She clambered after him to the upper
round, and stood in the secret doorway
watching him leaping away. He re-
turned laden heavily. Lady Felicie
gathered the lightest of the goods in
her arms, and ran down with them.
returning speedily for the othe.s.
They worked steadily for nearly an
hour. Then Emile came dashing back
to the tree with a small trunk.
"The last, thank Heaven! and It is
only just in time. They have returned
with reinforcements; 1 hear a terrific
din around the chateau"

time, is not the result of accumulated years;
tits the effect of wrong living and unhealthy
blood. When the blood is pure and fresh
the body will be full of youth.
Thousands of people who seemed to have
lost their youth by disease and suffering
have found it again through the use of Dr..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the
most perfectly natural and scientific rejuve-
nator of the physical forces ever known to
medical science.
It gives the blood-making organs power to
make new blood full of the life giving red
corpuscles which drive out disease, build
up fresh tissue, solid muscular flesh and
healthy nerve force. 1t gives constitutional
power deep and full and strong; rounds
out hollow cheeks and emaciated forms;
gives plumpness, color and animation.
1t does not make flabby fat like cod liver
oil. On this account, it is perfect tonic
for corpulent people.
1t aids digestion and the natural action of
the liver, and by feeding the nerves with
highly vitalized blood banishes nervous
ness, neuralgia and insomnia
Where constipated condition exists, the
Discovery" should be used in conjunction
with DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, which are
the most perfect mild and natural laxative
in the world. There is nothing else Just
as good" There is nothing that will do the
work so thoroughly, surely and comfortably.

81 hope none Of your friends are

r II hope none OF your friends are
there?"
"Oh, no; charged them to dispense
as rapidly as possible; there is little
mischief they can do-except-"
What? except what" cried Felicie,
frightened at the uneasy look ON his
face; they will not desecrate the
graves, surely?"
"They are fiendish enough for any
thing, but there is little to be gained
by such course. They have fired the
chateau, Lady Felicie. Will you take
look at it, ere it falls, and not be dis
tressed beyond my comforting"
She caught her breath convulsively
and stood moment in shivering ST.
lence, then held out her hand to him.
He had closed the door Of the tree,
and now took her hand tenderly, and
led her forward to the edge Of the
wood.
The stars had paled in sudden
alright at the bright glare which rose
up from the turbulent scene below.
The chateau was like one huge man
sion carven in glowing carbuncle.
Never had it's symmetry and beauty
struck Lady Felicie so forcibly as now
when every arched window, and quaint
gable, and doomed porch was framed
in burning line of dazzling flame.
1t was so grand and beautiful a
sight, she forgot her personal interest
in it's fate, and with hushed breathing
huge sea of fire waver to and fro, as IL
playing with its victim; now sweeping
broad dash of red, seething flame
across the lofty front, now rising up in
one vast spiral column of dense smoke
to the very sky.
All at once it wavered-the whole
great building seemed to give one dire
full shudder at it's fate, and gather it
self up proudly to meet it. One brief
instant Lady Felicie saw Languedoc
chateau before her eyes, every line dis
tinct, every arch perfect-the next it
toppled, crumbled, disappeared.
She turned with a wild sob.
Emile took her hand again, and
without a word led her away toward
the wood.
Between it and them rose up dark
figure.
"Haltw Numbered a hoarse voice,
"and let me know who it is watching
the burning of the accursed nest of
aristocrats with grief"
Emile set his teeth hard upon his
lip, and caught his companion up in his
arms.
She uttered no single cry of alarm.
Already had she been taught the cour-
age of desperation.
He ran swiftly as was possible with
such burden, in the direction of the
chateau, and gained the shelter CT a
thicket Of trees; then as his pursuer
dashed by them, he wheeled suddenly
and made desperate efforts to reach the
wood again.
He succeeded, and that was all; as
the door of the hollow tree closed be-
hind them, the fierce spy came STUN
bling along in the path.
Emile sat down his trembling COM
panion, and put his ear to the side of
the tree trunk.
A volley of oaths escaped the baf-
fed wretch.
"They have cheated me again. /
swear it must be some Of the royalists,
or they would not have fled so desper-
ately. I'll go back to Captain Pierre,
and we'll search the whole ground
over; there sha'nt be head left on
one of their necks, if 1 can help it,"
And muttering other inaudible an
athemas, he went away again.
