had received the account of the adven ture from the mouths of the heroes oi it, related 1t in all it's details to his Seminence. The latter, as a reward to UArtagnan, transferred him to the musketeers.
 D,Artagnan was beside himself with joy. We know that the dream of hia life had been to become musketeer The three friends were likewise greatly delighted.
 That evening fD,Artagnan went to present his compliments to M. Desses. sart and Inform him of his promotion. He begged him to have the diamond he put into his hand valued, as he wish. ed to turn 1t into money. The next day by o'clock M. Dessessart's valet came 0 D'Artagnan's lodging and gave. him bag containing 1000 Mvres. This was the price of the queens diamond.
 In the evening at Athos' lodgings the four friends met. There oply remained three things, to be decided upon-what they should write to- milady's brother, what they should write to the clever person at Tours and which should be the Ackeys to carry the letters. They decided Aramts should write the let fers, Planchet to carry one to De Win ter, Basin the other to Tours.
 Aramis took tho pen, reelected for q few moments, wrote eight or ten lines, then read the following to De Winter: Nilord--The person who writes these few H.

 Aramis resumed his pen, reelected . little and wrote the following lines, which he immediately subuitted to the appropriations of his friendi:

chosen for surprise to Comrade C. E.
Youtt on the near approach to his 10th
birthday, which occurred Thursday, the

his flight to New Hampshire on Monday
evening the party of 20 or more ladies
and comrades gathered at E. E. Tur-
ner's home, whose wife is the daughter
of Mr.. Youtt and gave him a genuine
surprise. After refreshments were
served the party accompanied Comrade
Abbey to the station where he took the
sleeper for Boston on his way to his
daughters in Sandwich, N. H. On
Tuesday the ladies of Russell circle sent
two boxes of canned goods to the SOL
diers' home in Bennington for Thanks
giving.
