of ttoe utmoat security. and laid out a
score of Improvements to be made In
the garden, ai a period when he meant
lo be safely landed on a foreign ahore.
| And every few hnura he exchanged
n knowing nod with M. I’lerre, aa If
glorying over hla wlae aagaclty. In
tbeae pii'pnratlona, of rourae, the ah*
aenee of lhe moat valuable aervlce of
■liver waa dlecovered, hut the wily If.
Pierre hart forratnlleil the need of ex-
planation by Informing hla credulous
master that he had taken the precau-
tion, In consideration of the disturb-
ances In other plares. to secrete It, and
that It should ho ready for him at the
weddln* festival, unless he preferred
to have It snugly packed for transport-
ation to the fishing sloop, which last
Idea the count eagerly seconded. He
rodo over to Prejna to find some one
to perform the ceremony, and on the
way thither met a bishop coming to
hint for protection. Ho had left Paris
expecting to find u relative at Frejus,
but every one who held the slightest
claim to aristocracy had fled from
Parle.
The count received him warmly, and
carried him back to the chateau In tri-
umph. Now everything was prepared,
only waiting for the bridegroom to be
able to perform hls share of the cere-
mony. M. Pierre was ostensibly moBt
active in carrying forward the prepara-
tions, but the countess shuddered every
time she met hls eye. The bishop's
presence gave the ladles more excuse
for lingering in their own roome; nnd
It also seemed an opportunity to visit
the Little Forest. Therefore, that very
evening they stole forth cautiously and
went speeding along toward the hollow
tree. Before they reached the edge of
the wood the form of Emile started up
from the hedge which bordered the
meadow. He spoke their names eager-
ly, and dispersed the momentary terror
which his sudden appearance had
caused.
“Thank Heaven you have come! I
was trying to conjure up an opportu-
nity for speaking with you. How pro-
ceed matters at the chateau?"
“Illy enough, I fear, though the
•ount fancies everything favorable,”
answered the countess.
“And the overseer?”
“He is there still. The count trusts
him Implicitly, and has confided to him
til his plans of escape.”
“Mon Dieu! is the man demented?
“He will not listen to our remon-
strances,” answered Felicie, while her
mother kept silence.
“Have you told him what you
heard?”
“No; though we assured him that we
had proof of his treachery. He declared
he should go to M. Pierre with our accu-
sations, and we dared not reveal all
without first consulting you.”
“That was prudent,” said Emile,
while between his teeth he muttered,
"Dolt! idiot! brute! the man does not
deserve to live.” And in a moment he
added gravely, “It would be the ex-
tinguishment of your best hopes of es-
cape to reveal my presence here, or the
locality of the retreat I have provided.
I half expected to find you gone; and I
fervently hoped it might be so.”
“We waited for the Marquis Ed
ward.”
“And he arrived two nights ago.
Why were you not away before this?
Every hour is of priceless value.
The countess sighed heavily.
“He is ill; we are only waiting for
his recovery; then the marriage is to
take place, and we are to ride directly
to the wharf at St. Josephs.”
, “I wish 1 knew their plans better;
not a soul has entered the woods since
I came, -and the pikes have been re-
moved: I lost the precious opportunity
absence ”
“Ah,” cried Fencie, “we looked for
you so anxiously. We grew so troubled
about you.”
“I could not come. I have learned a
bitter lesson in my absence. I, who
held them to my sway before, have
found the tide so swollen that it bore
me along like a feather. I liffid up my
voice for freedom, equality, madoood
did I know they would interpret it law-
lessness, demoralization, brutality?
Alack! one cannot play with fire ex-
cept to be scorched. My heart has died
within me to witness the horrors which
reign triumphant, conscious, as I am
that I helped to nurse the spark
which has become such a madly de-
vouring element. There is hut one
course left me; I must secretly aid all
who come within reach of my helping
hands.”
“You counsel us to refrain from men-
tioning the adventure in the woods that
night?” questioned the countess, anx-
ious to return as speedily as possible.
“I certainly do. if it Is to be retailed
at once to the arch villain, Pierre. Be-
■ides. it is too late now. Pierre is aware
of your movements. I wish I were cer-
tain of his. 1 must go to Frejus and
hunt up a few trusty comrades; by
their means I may learn more. But It
will be prudent for you to accompany
me to the tree and learn how to man-
age the spring which opens the jagged
goor of the tree-trunk. Then If you
nut reach u you will he —I*. wh*l#»#r
happens lo me."
“Let ua go new, w» may have no
Other opportunity.** ael*l Felicia.
They proceeded thither In alienee.
The counieaa eermrd greatly fatigued
and eat down on the ground, while
Emit# carefully Initiated her daughter
Into the mysirrtee of the spring cun-
ningly filed Into n round c»ci enoraee of
the hark. Lady Fellete practiced upon
It until able to open It instantancouelv.
“Now let ua hasten hack.” Mid the
countess, shivering with the chilly
night air.
Just ns she turned, ahe paused sud-
denly. nnd. extending her hand, said,
with grave, solemn sweetness:
“Heaven bless you, Emile, nnd re-
ward you for nil vour devotion."
He held her hand In hls Just a brief
moment, then dropped It without n
word. The countess drew Fellcle'a arm
within hers and hurried away, nor cast
a single backward glance They were
Just In season to escape detection, tnd
had hardly removed ihelr wrapper*
when the count hurst In upon (hem.
"To-morrow night, Fcllcle, my love!"
exclaimed he. “The Marquis Edward
improves rapidly. In- dedures himself
convalescent, and Insists that there he
no further delay. So get out your fin-
ery to-morrow. He will not see you till
you are dressed In your bridal gar-
ments. It’s a pity the wedding must
be such a paltry affair; but we ll cele-
brate It In worthy style when we return
again to France. But be sure you look
a little like a Languedoc. After all. the
dress can be quite as pretty us If you
had n dozen corhellles from Paris.
There's plenty of rich lace In the ward-
robe, and the diamonds will brighten
all. I want Edward to remember hls
bride ae a charming picture, though
there be no guests nor festival.”
"And you intend to proceed at once
to the vessel?” asked the countess.
"Yes, immediately.”
“Grant me this favor as a bridal
gift, mon pere.” exclaimed Fellele, the
tears rushing to her eyes; "let M. Pi-
erre believe we are not to go until the
night after."
“Foolish child! are those tears?"
“I am so terribly afraid of that
man, mon pere; promise, I beseech
you!"
“Why not? I will not mention an-
other word to him—are you content?
Once safely at sea. we shall forget all
these horrors.”
“Thank you, oh, thank you, papa,
It is such a relief.”
He did not disclose the fact that he
had Just come from M. Pierre and had
discussed the whole arrangement free-
ly. And so, believing M. Pierre in ig-
norance, and conscious of Emile's vi-
cinity, mother and daughter slept
peacefully through the night.
CHAPTER XI.
LTHOUGH appar-
ently very quiet,
the next day was
really a busy and
anxious one at the
chateau. Edward
was up and dressed
in clothes fur-
bished up from the
well stocked ward-
robes, quite early
in fhe day; but he
preferred not to see his bride until the
marriage vows were exchanged—on
the ostensible plea of reserving all his
strength free from excitement, but in
reality from a disinclination he could
not overcome. The countess, herself,
dressed her daughter in the fleecy
white robes, nor would allow another
hand to touch a. single fold. She lin-
gered fondly over the task, reluctant
to finish, and even Felicie was obliged
to say, with a blush and a smile:
“There, there, mamma! I am sure
it is all complete now—you could not
be more particular if there were a
thousand guests to behold me!”
But the countess smoothed a wave of
hair here, brushed out a tumbled
flounce, readjusted each spray of the
orange crown, and finally removed the
diamond ornaments entirely and re-
placed them with her own rich set of
milky pearls.
^‘My father will not approve!” whis-
pered Felicie.
“For this once, no matter; he will not
have time to allude to it. The
pearls are so much prettier. Now is
my darling a fairy looking bride, in-
deed. Surely Edward will open his
heart to her at once.”
“Ah, it is for him you are so fastid-
iously particular tonight. I had for-
gotten, almost, what it meant for me,
this wedding—I only have rejoiced be-
cause it was the gateway for our es-
cape from this wearing life of sus-
pense.”
“Wearing, indeed!” reiterated the
countess, and putting her hand hastily
to her side, she turned deathly pale.
Felicie sprang forward in alarm.
“What is it, my mother? are you
faint? are you ill?”
“No, no, it is nothing, it will pass in
a moment.”
And as 6he had said, the spasm
passed away in a few moments. The
daughter was scarcely reassured, when
the count’s voice was heard at the
door.
“Come, loiterers, we are waiting for
you.”
The countess seized Felicie's hand.
anC bent forward to press a solemn
kiss upon her lips.
“The Holy One forever bless my good
and worthy daughter!”
The deep pathos of the tones
brought the tears to her eves, but there
waa no time to give answer, for the
count uociosed the door, and ltd hsr

A doirti wild faces leaped up at ev-
ery window, brawny finis danbad Ih*
glam Into fragments, while tha burly
flgures leaped in upon them from all
aides. Edward was felled lo th# floor
by the Aral blow. With s wild cry of

overseer. The villain amlled grlml)
and drew a pistol One brief Instant
was It given lo ihe wicked man lo real-
ise hla own folly and hla servant a
treachery, the next he fell a corpse al
Ihe feet of hls daughter.
Fellrfa'a wild shriek rang through
the room, Hhe strove to reach hor
mother, ere a brutal arm with Its up-
lifted pike should fall -saw the be-
loved form suddenly sink back and her-
self sank fainting to Ihe floor. Re-
viving. she was conscious of a fierce
affray going on at the chateau, and
she herself lying amidst th* cold
corpses of her friends. Hhe crept has-
tily tut her weakness would allow lo
her mother's side, and anxiously lis-
tened for u throb of breathing at her
lifeless heart. All In vain. And yet.
there was no sign of a blow or wound.
Remembering how she bad fallen
ere the pike descended, the poor child
had a dismal comfort In believing her
heart had broken at the sudden shock.
Suddenly now came the remem-
brance of her own hapless condition,
and the danger of M. Pierre's return
with those brutal rulflanB. The new
thought gave her strength. Hastily
disengaging a black cloak from the
shoulders of the murdered bishop, she
wrapped It over her white robes, leaped
hastily through a broken window, and
darted like a frightened fawn past a
man pacing to and fro. as if guarding
against the approach of friend and
foe. She knew he saw her, and in »
moment heard hls plunging steps fol-
lowing. But terror and despair gave
her fleetness. She knew the path well
and though every now and then her
lace flounces caught upon brier and
bush, she tore them off with frantic
hands, and went leaping forward. She
stumbled twice and fell headlong—but
sprang up again like a deer, and at
length gained the wood. It was eas-
ier to elude him here; she darted in
and out among the trees, until she was
sure her dread pursuer had lost the
track. She heard his muttered curses
as he blundered around, and lightly
as a fairy she flew on to the blessed
relief at hand.
She gained the tree, pressed the
spring with desperate hand, and rushed
in. A cold chill sank upon her heart;
it was empty. Where, oh, where, was
Emile? Was there no friend left her?
She sank shivering upon the earthy
floor, and buried her head in her hands.
She could not think over, then, all the
anguish that had fallen upon her—the
terrible bereavement of the past hour;
parents, bridegroom, home and friends,
all stricken from the hand that seemed
to hold them so securely. Her brain
whirled, a terrible sickening fear took
possession of her—that M. Pierre would
find out her retreat, or drag her forth,
or that Emile was killed also, and she
should perish there of starvation.
These absorbed every faculty, and
crouching and listening, she survived
two hours of almost intolerable agony.
Another hour would have turned her
brain; before its expiration, a rapid
step came bounding to the tree, the
door was flung open, and Emile's voice
cried frantically:
"Lady Felicie, Lady Felicie! are you
here?”

Disposal of Sewage in Birmingham.t~l
One of the worst features under the
old management was The disposal of
the sewage. By way of remedy two sys-
tems have found adoption. Under one
the health committee collects the of-
fal of the houses, and either destroys
it or turns it into fertilizers. This
is more offensive and less successful
than it might be made, but is appar-
ently a necessity until the pan system
has been abandoned. A sewage farm
of nearly 1.300 acres has been devel-
oped several miles from the city, some
400 feet lower in elevation. The sew-
age, first mixed with lime to prevent
too rapid decomposition and to assist
in the precipitation of the solid mat-
ter, is passed through a series of de-
positing tanks, during which process
the mud is removed. The remainder
is dug into the land, one-third of
which in dealt with each year, the ef-
fluent being discharged in a harmless
state into the river Tame. Upon the
other two-thirds are grown early vege-
tables. and grain and hay for cows
kept for milk and market. The net
annual cost to the city is about £24,-

An observing man learns that a woman
who is physically weak and nervous and in-
capable, is likely to be ill-natured too. Tin
sweetest temper is ruined by continual
sickness.
A woman whose nerves are constantly
racked and dragged by debilitating drains
and inflammation, cannot be a genial com-
panion or happy wife ; and she is totally
unfitted to be a mother. .
These troubles prevail almost universally
among women largely because of careless-
ness and neglect. There is no real need of
them. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is
a positive specific for the weaknesses and
diseases of the feminine organism.
It cures them radically and completely.
It heals, strengthens and nprifies. It is the
only aciemtne remedy devised for this spe-
cial purpose by an educated, skilled physi-
cian. It is the only medicine that makes
motherhood easy and absolutely safe.
