Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1915-02-16

The great European war has brought
out the woman spy. Here is story
connected with womHn spy of 1870.
Martin Lemoyne was much interest
ed in his family tree The Lemoynes
came from France. and Martin traced
his ancestry there. About the begin
ming of the present century he went TO
France and after considerable bunting
found the branch of the family TO
which he belonged They lived in
the department of the Marine on a
road over which the Germans in 1870
marched to Paris.
Lemoyne's relatives received him
cordially and were quite curious about
one of the family who had become an
American he was about thirty years
old at the time and admired very
much one OF his cousins many times
removed-a young girl of twenty.
Louise Lemoyne captivated him by her
very pleasant laugh. which rang out on
all occasions. Indeed. it seemed that
the natural expression of her face was
a smile. There was with this bit OF
witchery in her that rendered her dou
bly, attractive. When she smiled on
Martin with her lips there was roguery
in her eyes. Men are more apt to be
caught by this sort of thing than evil
dence of character At any rate, the
American fell In love with his French
cousin and proposed TO take her back
to America with him.
"If you knew" she said. you
wouldn't want me-"
These were the first words Martin
heard her say without the smile.
IF ! knew what?'' he asked.
II am not always what you see me.
Sometimes 1 am another person"
"what-two persons in one bodyT'
yes"
as your double as lovely as you are:7
This brought back the laugh.
II viii tell you whether / viii go
with you to America tomorrow-that
is, If you ask me again. But you will
not"
Martin swore that he would ask her
tomorrow and every day till she con-
scented.
That night his room was changed.
why ne was not informed. One thing
he noticed that pleased him very much.
On the wall was hung a portrait of
Louise. The artist had caught that
smile of hers with all its seductiveness.
1t seemed to him that she was smiling
at him. To whatever part /
of the room he went those mischievous |
eyes followed him.
He went to bed and TO sleep. Pres !
emily he was awakened by a fash of |
light. Some one had put a lamp in the |
hall. which shone through the transom.
Martin was about to turn over and go |
to sleep when he glanced at that part |
of the wall where hung Louise's pic
ture. The light shining through the
faced IT and rested on It.

auintessence OF innocent happiness, the
other despair.

way. then another, All he could do

The lamp without was removed as
suddenly as IL had appeared. lea wing
the room in darkness. Lemoyne en-.
deavored TO shut out that CHASTITY look
from his mental vision. but II would
not go away. lie seemed that the sub
iect OF the portrait was about to be
dragged TO some frightful doom. and
he lay wondering what it was He
heard the clock strike every hour be-
tween / and z. AS soon as it was
light he wished to throw off the covers
and have a look at the picture but
dreaded to do so. fearing be would en-.
counter that fearful gaze. At last he
summoned resolution TO do so.
There was the enhancing smile IN
der the mischievous eyes.
When he met Louise that morning
she looked at him with a half fright
ened, half mischievous inquiring ex-
preston. He realized for the first time
that she had been responsible for what
had occurred during the night But
how he had no idea. He turned away
from her with a shudder.

tone.
Lemoyne turned.
Explain that portrait" he said.
Monsieur does not wish me TO 20
with him TO American"
"For heavens sake. help me TO get
rid of that awful face"
At this she looked penitent and told
him that years ago, before she was
born. the Germans. when they invaded
France, had passed the house. At the
time a woman spy was taken and con
demned to death. The night before
her execution an artist had caught the
expression of despair on her face and
had transferred 1T to canvas. The pic
ture had remained in the house. and
recently some one had suggested that
in order to do away with the grewsome
subject Louise's likeness be painted
over IT. Whether or not the paint was
thin or in some way transparent, in a
certain light the two pictures were
blended. Louise. yielding to a whim,
had arranged that her lover should
sleep facing It and had herself held
the light in the hail.
Lemoyne was much displeased az
what she had done and declined TO for
give her for n whole day. Then he re-
peated his offer, and she consented TO
go with him TO America. But before
they departed he burned the portrait
