morning my master rose late, still in a
horribly bad humor. At noon Raoul
arrived, also in a rage. They at once be-
gan to dispute, and such a row! The
scamps spoke English, so | could not un-
derstand them. But after a while the
rascals began to talk in French again,
but they only spoke of fancy ball to be
given by some banker. When Raoul
was leaving my master said, Since this
thing is inevitable, and must take place
to-day, you had better remain at home,
at Vesinet this evening" Raoul replied,
'Of course
1T is time to Co." said NJ. Nerduret.
Your master will want you. Joseph;
besides, here is some one come for me. l
will see you tomorrow"
The newcomer was none other than
Cavaillon, more troubled and frightened
than ever. He looked uneasily around
the room, as if he expected the whole
police force to appear and to carry him
off to prison. He did not sit down at NJ.
Verduret's table, but stealthily gave his
hand to Prosper and after assuring him
self that no one was observing them,
handed NJ. Verduret a package, saying:

1t was a handsomely bound prayer
book. NJ. Verduret rapidly turned over
the leaves, and soon found the pages
from which the words pasted on Pros
per's letter had been cut.
Il had moral proofs" he said, handing
| the book to Prosper. "but here is ma
terial proof sufficient in itself to save
you"
When Prosper looked at the book he
turned pale as a ghost He recognized
this prayer book instantly. He had given
it to Madeleine in exchange for the
medal. He opened it, and on the flyleaf
Madeleine had written. Souvenir of
Notre Dame de Fourvieres."
This book belongs to Madeleine" he
cried
M. Verduret did not reply, but walked
toward young man dressed like a truck
man, who had just entered the room. He
glanced at the note which this person
handed to him, and fastened back to the
table, and said, in an agitated tone:
81 think we have got them now!"
Without saying a word to Cavaillon,
he seized Prosper's arm and hurried from

A Novel Plea.

4 novel case is reported from CnesteE,
Pa. A negro named Cornelius Bush was
recently found guilty of murder in the
first degree for beheading his cell-mate,
James Pratt, in the Eastern penitentary
But strenuous efforts are making to save
his neck on the ground that the man
whom he murdered was himself muir
derer, and had cheated the gallows out OF
its lust prey 1t is also said that the
pea will be made before the board OF
parions in behalf OF Bush that the Off
cials of the Eastern penitentiary are. TO
a certain degree, blameable for the trag-
edy within the prison walls because they
knew that both Pratt and Bush were
men of murderous impulses and that to
place them together in a cell was reck-
lessness amounting almost to crimtnalitS,
in view Of the fact that both men were
finemcnt.
Tho penitentiary officials may be to
blame for locking these men in the same
CELL and 1t may also 'be true that the
man who was murdered was himself a
fit subject for the galows. But the plea
that the man who commits the murder
is TO be excused on either of these
grounds Is absurd, and it is not to be
( supposed that the authorities will en-
terrain 1t for moment. Every man Is
responsible for his own acts, and no man
/ can be excused for committing murder
I because his victim was bad man or be-
cause through the neglect or others the
| opportunity of murder was presented
The whole theory of shifting the respon-
sibility of individuals upon tho govern
ment is as wrong as anything can be
! and the theory that men are to be saved
] from temptation by the regulations Of
law is also a theory that cannot be sup.
ported on any warrant OF Scripture. The
Scriptures plainly teach that temptations
must come; that men must 20 into The
world and be subjected to temptations
but that they must be good in spite OF 1t
1t Is only in this way that there lis excr
else OF virtue and development of char
acter.

disease after 1t has become chronic, We
9bava heretofore shown how the CEN
tral trouble In Kidney disorders Is that
the deranged Kidneys permit the escape
az the albumen thus draining the blood
of its life principle and the consequent

remedy. Note the different attack OF
