 Heightened color told how much it meant Co Francois Beaupre Go hear those words spoken by the prince
 My prince, ] win tell you though it may be of little moment Co know Chat it is not for my own advance. ment that care, It is the truth that ] would throw away & hundred lives if had them, to see td6 house of Bon. aparte rule France lt is only SO, ] believe. that France can become great once more. We need heroes Co lead us, We Frenchmen, not shopkeeper kings such as Louis Philippe: fit has not a hero the nation loses courage. and its interest in national life But the very name of Napoleon is inspira. tion-it bricks the blood; a monarch of that name on Frances throne. and our country will wake will live You, my prince are the hope of the house of Napoleon"
 With a quick step forward he threw himself on his knees before the quiet figure in the throne-like chair: he selz- ed the princes hand and, head bent kissed it with passion. There was a line of color in each cheek as his face lifted and his brilliant look was shot with a tear
 "lf l may die believing that l have helped to win your throne, l shall die in happiness
 Prince Louis had his mothers warm heart, and this went to 1t. He put his hand on the others shoulder. famil- iarly as if the two were equals, kins- men
 The brotherly touch on Francois shoulder was withdrawn, and with gem tie dignity, with a glance, the prince lifted him to his feet, and Francois stood happy, dazed before him. He found himself telling his plans. his methods. his efforts to fit himself for the usefulness that might be on the way.
 "I have studied enormously, my prince. All known books on warlike subjects, all l could borrow or steal l have studied An, yes! l know much of these things
 Louis Bonaparte, with an exhaustive military education. a power of appli. cation and absorption beyond most men in Europe, let the gleam of a smile escape. He listened with close attention while Francois told of his organization of the youth of the neigh borhood into n cavalry company, and of their drill twice a week.
 And you are the captain, Mon. sieur?"
 Francois smiled a crafty, worldly. wise smile+-Or perhaps it was as if a child would seem crafty and worldly. wise No my prince" he answered shaking his head sagely That would not be best l am little known a for. eigner. They think much of their old families, the people of these parts. So that 1t is better for the success of the company that the captain should be of the nobility of the country. One sees that So the captain of the com. pany is Monsieur Henry Hampton, the younger, the Hnsman of Monsieur le Colonel. and a young man of great goodness, and the best of friends to me. Everything that can do for his pleasure is my own pleasure"
 The prince turned his expression. less gaze on the animated face Mad emoiselle Lucy likes the young mon. sieur?"
 But yes, my prince-she likes ev. cry one, Mademoiselle Lucy. It is sun shine her kindness; 1t falls every. where and blesses where 1t falls. She loves Henry--as a brother"
 As a brother!" the prince repeated consideringly. Yes, a brother. You find Mademoiselle Lucy of-of a kind disposition
 Beyond words, and most charm ing, Francois answered steadily, and flushed a little. He felt himself being probed With that the facile, myste. rious, keen mind of the prince leaped it seemed, a worldwide chasm. That most winning little girl of the ruined chateau of Vicques-our playmate AliXe-you remember how she tated ' am Alike, and was at once ship wrecked with embasrassment?"
 T remember" Francois said shortly and was conscious that he breathed quickly and that his throat was dry and that the prince knew of both trou bles.
 Is she still Alixe'-the same Alixe?' inquired the prince, turning os tentatiously to the window Has she grown up as sweet and fresh and bril- liant a flower as the rosebud prom isedg'
 Francois. hearing his own heart beat attempted to answer in a par ticularly casual manner. which is a diff fcult and sophisticated trick He fail ed at it "They say-I think-she has-oh, but yes, and-I think'-he stammered and the prince cut short his suferlngs. "Ah, yes! see that it is with you, as with Monsieur Hen, ry, a case of devoted brotherhood. You love her as a brother-you will not boast of her.
 You have done well, ChevalieI Beaupre You have done SO we'll that
