NSTALLMENT TX.

IN THE DAYS when st. ROGUE was
merely a fishing village. there was
built in its harbor a small stone
ietty. To it the fishermen TIED
their boats, and on it they spread
their nets to dry in the sun. You 90
not see many nets there nowadays,
for the descendants of those fisher
men have for the most part given up
their ancient trade. finding it more
profitable to hire their craft out to
Summer visitors Two days after
Packy Franklyn had set out on his
VOYAGE, a willowy young man with
pleasant face marred at the moment
bv slight pallor was standing on the
iettv steps endeaVoring to climb INTO
a small and unsafe looking rowboat.
The Vicomte de Blissac, on arriving
in his native town, had Immediately
registered at the Hotel deS Etrangers.
This, seeing that he was expected as
a guest at the chateau, may seem
curious. but he had his reasons. Tooay
was the day of the Festival OF the
Saint. and he did not propose to miss
it. 1t was his plan to revel tonight
in a manner befitting this important
occasion and only on the morrow TO
present himself at the home of his
ancestorS-and even then only If he
felt considerably better than he eX-
pected to feel.
And if his host and hostess. the
Monsieur and Madame Gedge, should
grow concerned at his absence-Why,
that. felt the vicomte, who, as this
chronicle has already limited. took
light hearted view Of life and its prob
lens. was unfortunate, but could not
be helped.
His motives for embarking on this
water jaunt may be explained quite
simply. Although Mr.. Gedge's state
ment that the Vicomte de BGSsac was
never sober had been an eXaggeration
for he was frequently sober, some
times for hours at a time-it is un-
doubtedly true that he had distinct
bias toward the festive. And, becom-
ing acquainted with some agreeable
strangers at the hotel on the previous
evening, he had found one thing lead
ing to another and so on, far into the
night. This morning it had seemed
to him that a row in the fresh air
might act as pick-me-up.
And the theory was proving itself
correct. AS he splashed his way
vigorously about the harbor, he was
growing conscious of a marked i'm
provement. Exhilarated, he rested on
his oars and perceived that he had
come within a few feet of ramming
an auxiliary yaWl bearing on its side
the name Flying Cloud. He backed
a yard or two, and it was at this
moment that he observed, leaning over
the side of the vessel, a man who
smoked a pipe And with the utmost
pleasure and surprise he recognized his
old friend, Packy Franklyn. He waved
effusively. Packy appeared not to be
aware of his existence
The fact was, Packy had come on
deck to think. The bright crusading
spirit which had taken him to the
shores of Brittany had become, by the
time he dropped anchor in the narbor
of st. ROGUE, a little dimmed. He
was still as full of zeal as ever, but
as he washed up the dishes after his
simple morning meal he had to admit
to himself that if any one were to ask

him just what he proposed to do now
that he had got here they would
stump him badly.
As far as he could figure things out
at even date, he would be able to offer
Jane Opal at this critical point in her
life little but brotherly sympathy and
understanding. In order to accom-
plish anything practical on her be-
half, it was obvious that he would
somehow have to get into the chateau,
and not even eggs and bacon and
coffee had given him the slightest
hint as to how this was to be done.
Lighting his pipe, he went on deck,
and. leaning over the side, told his
brain to 60 to it and see what 1t had
got.
1t had got nothing whatever. He
urged it to try again. And 1t was at
this point that he received the first
intimation that his friend, the
vicomte, had come back into his life.
Unable to attract Packy's attention in
a sitting posture it had occurred to
the vicomte that better results might
be obtained were he to stand up.
1t was a most unfortunate move.
A sudden lurch sent him staggering
sideways, and from there to the water
was an easy step. He went in like a
performing seal.
From dozen neighboring boats
there rose Immediately babel Of
alarm. The French are an emotional
race. The Interpretation which Packy
first placed on the uproar was that
quite a number of murders must have
broken out simultaneously in the
vicinity. 1t was only few moments
later that, happening to glance down
at the water, he saw the Vicomte de
Blissac.
Hello, there, Week" he said. "How's
the boy?"
The boy, at the moment of the in
quiry, was not doing any too well.
A wave had caught him unawares and
he now disappeared beneath the sur
face with a slight gargling sound.
Many men in Packy's position would
have shrunk from diving in to the
rescue, fully clad. Packy was one Of
them. He was fond of the vicomte,
but not to the extent of running a

will not 60. They expect me arriving
yesterday. and most likely / do not
turn upwards till the day after to-
morrow, If even then. This will
annoy these Gedges confoundedly.
They will be sicker than mud. You
understand?"
Packy was unwilling to accept de-
feat.
mo" said the vicomte definitely,
at cannot be done So far from In
viting my friends to the chateau, I
shall be extremely fortunate If l do
not myself become kicked out. / have
met these Gedges never, but my
mamma tells me they are very upright,
respectable bourgeois, and you would
not believe, my Packy, how much not
liked by upright, respectable bourgeois
/ can grow in quite short space of
time 1t will be a case of 'Allo.
Monsieur lie Vicomte, come in. Good
by, Monsieur lie Vicomte, get out and
l shall be back once more in my good
little hotel"
Packy argued no further. He was
depressed, but he could see the force
of the others reasoning. The vicomte
might be good company, but he was
not q good social sponsor. Search, he
realized, must be made elsewhere for
means OF entry to the Chateau BlisSac.

Packy was not interested in the
Festival Of the Saint.

chateau, will you? can't explain,
but I have q particular reason for
wanting to spend few days there" a"
The vicomte smiled indulgently.
"Aha! The beautiful Miss Opal, yes?"
Packy was annoyed. Jane Opal, ex-
cept as q mere acquaintance to whom
he wished to do coed turn, was
nothing TO him. 1t was intensely
irritating to have to listen to such
nonsense.
Nothing of the kind. I happen
to be engaged to be married"

idea of beating his friend over the
