Q BY RaEaol Sabattnt

II was afraid. 1 I thought
not even you, should know. There
was Plougast.; there was my fam
ily.'
Through the windows open to the
garden came from the distance the
faint throbbing of a drum to remind
them of what vas happening around
them. At last Andre Louis began to
speak. his voice level and unutter-
ably cold.
fM. de La Tour d'Azyr." he said, Il
trust that you'll agree that this dis
closure alters nothing since it effaces
nothing of all that lies between US.
And yet Oh, but what a 1t
avail to talk! Here. monsieur, take
this safe conduct which is made out
for Nine, de Plougastels footman,
and with it make your escape as best
you can. In return l will beg of you
the favor eve to allow me to see
you or hear of you again"
The Marquis rose slowly to his
feet again. He came slowly forward.
his smouldering eyes scanning his
sons face.
you are hard" he said grimly.
But | recognize the hardness. 1t
derives from the blood you bear"
Spare me that" said Andre -ouis.
NJ. de La Tour considered him
gravely, sadly. in silence for a mo-
ment.
He turned to Nine. de Plougastel.
"Goodby. Therese!" His voice
broke. He had reached the. end of
his iron self control.
He held her face between his
hands an instant; then very gently
kissed her and put her from him.
Standing erect. and outwardly calm
again, he looked across at Andre
Louis who was proffering him n
sheet of paper.
1T is the safe conduct. Take 1t.
monsieur. 1t is my first and last
gift to you, and certainly the last
gift l should ever have thought of
making you-the gift of life. In a
sense it makes us quits. The irony,
sir, is not mine, but Fate's. Take it
monsieur, and go in peace"
M. de La Tour d'Azyr took it. His
eyes looking hungrily into the lean
face confronting him. so s~ternly set.
He thrust the paper in his bosom.
and then abruptly. convulsively, held
out his hand. His sons eyes asked
a question.
Let there be peace between us. in
Gods name" said the Marquis thick
ly.
Pity stirred at last in Andre Louis.
Some of the sternness left his face
He sighed. "Goodby, monsieur" he
said.
He loosed his sons hand and
stepped back. They bowed formally
to each other. And then M. de La
Tour d'Azyr bowed to Mile. de ker-
cadiou i'll utter silence, a bow that
contained something oe utter renun-
citation, of fnality.
That done he turned and walked
stiffly out of the room. and so out of
all their lives. Months later they
were to hear of him in the service of
the Emperor of Austria.

Frank Hoffman, of Red Bank, son

To Andre Louis. sauntering there
with his hands clasped behind him
and head hunched between mis-
shoulders-for life had never been
richer in material for reflection
came presently Aline through one of
the glass doors from the library.
Have you decided what you are

"Oh, something. Consider that i'll

He paused before uttering the
name, paused as if hesitating how to
speak of him.
And in those two years | have

that was squirting me. That even

ulously.
She looked at him without answer

much she had been swept into say
ing by her eagerness to make him
realize his error, a sudden fear came
creeping into her eyes.
He held out both hands to her.
"Aline. Aline!" His voice broke on
the lame.
NJ. de Kercadiou, emerging a mo-
ment later from the library window,
beheld them holding hands and star
ing each at the other, beatifically as
if each saw Paradise in the others
face.

GIVE Us MORE
BASS, IS CRY
Cape May Ponds to Sussex
Lakes Make This Appeal
of State

Give Us more bass!' is the in
sistent cry raised by anglers in all
sections OF New Jersey.
This gamiest of fresh water fishes
undoubtedly enjoys the greatest
statewide popularity of any species.
for unlike the trout. when is chiefly
confined to the cooler mountain
streams, the bass furnishes sport
for fishermen in waters warm and
cold, from Cape May ponds to Sus-
sex county lakes.
In answer to the appeal Of the
fishermen. the State Fish and Game
Commission is now making the
largest distribution of Young lass
since the rearing of these fish be-
gan at the State Fish Hatchery. at
HackettstoNn n. Tens of thousands of
lingering pass are being planted by
wardens under the direction of
Chief Protector James NJ. Stratton.
in the waters of many counties.
Wardens are encouraged by the fact
that big catches, reported since the
bass season opened last month, in
dictate that a large percentage of
all hatchery bass survive in open
waters. improvement in the fishing
is shown. il is asserted. in practi-
cally every lake stocked with hatch-
cry bass during the last three years.
A few years ago it was tie conclu-
sion of many fish culturists that
black bass could not be reared arr
tifcially. Superintendent Charles
O. Hayford, of the New Jersey
hatchery exploded this theory. He
devised methods of pond culture
that have become a model for fish
cries throughout the country. He is
annually extending the output of
both small mouth and Oswego bass.
Plans that will convert meadow
lands at the hatchery into additional
bass-breeding ponds have been ap-
proved by the Fish and Game Com
mission. The construction of these
ponds, 1t is said. will permit their,
completion at small cost and super
intendent Hayford says he expects
in another year, with these addi-
tional lakes, to more than double
