The French soldier in those days had seen mo much to be ever taken by surpnsq his eyes had hardly rested upon my hound figure and the sinister face beside me before he 'nsd seen how the matter 13y. “Sacred name of a dog !" he growled. and out flashed his great sabre. Chenier sprang forward at him with his knife, and then, thinking better of it, he darted back and stabbed frantically at my heart. For my own part, I had hurled myself 05' the bed on the side opposite to him, and the Me grazed my aide before ripping its way through blanket and sheet. An instant later I heard the thud of a heavy fall, and then almost simultaneously a second object “rock the floorâ€"something lighter but harder. which rolled under the bed. I will not horrify you with details, my friends Sufice 'it that Papilette was one of th strongest swordsman in the regiment, and that his sabre was heavy and sharp. I left a red blotch upon my wrists and my STORIES OF ADVENTURE. ankles, as When I had thrown ofi' my gag, the first use which I made of my lips was to kiss the sergeant’s sacred cheeks. The next was to ask him if all was well with the command. Yes, they had had no alarms- Ondin had just relieved him, and he had come to report. Had he seen the Abbot 2 No, he had seen nothing of him. Then we must form a cordon and prevent his escape. I was hnrrying out to give the orders,when I hearda slow and measured step enter the door below. and come creaking up the stairs. “Luck always comes to the aid of a fool." he answered. “ Perhaps it. is as well, otherwise the world would fall too com- pletely Into the power of the astute. So, you have killed Chenier, I see. He was an inaubqrdinate dog, and always smelt abom- inably of gal-11c. Mighbl trouble you to lay me upon the bed? The floor of these Portuguese mbernas is hardly a fitting couch for anyone who has prejudices in favour of cleanliness." Papilette understood it all in an instant. “ You are not to kill him,” I whispered, and thrust him into the shadow on one side of the door; I crouched on the other. Up he came, up and up, and every footiall seemed to be upon my heart. The brown skirt of his gown was not over the thres- hold before we were both on him, like two wolves on a buck. Down we crashed, the three of us, he fighting like a tiger, and with such amazing strength that hermight have broken away from the two of us. Thrice he got to his feet and thrice we had him over again, until Papilette made him feel there was a point to his sabre. He had sense enough then to know that the game was up, and to lie still while I lashed him with the very cords which had been round my o_wn limbs. .- ‘w‘ p 1 could not. but. admire the coolneeo of the man, and the way in which he preserv- ed the same insolent air of condescensxon in spite of this sudden turning of the table. I dispatched Papilette to summon a guard, whilst, I stood over our prisoner with my drawn sword, never taking my eyes of)" him for an inst-ant, for I must confess that. I ordered the gown to be stripped irom him and placed him under a strong guard. Then, as morning was already breaking, I had to consider what my next step was to be. The poor Bart. and his Englishmen had fallen victims to the deep scheme which might. had we adopted all the crafty suggestions of our adviser, have ended in the capture of the whole instead of the half of our force. I must extricate them if it were still possible. Then there was the old lady, the Countess of La Ronda, to be thought of. As to the Abbey, since its garrison was on the alert it was hopeless to think of capturing that. All turned low upon the value which they placed upon their leader. The game depended upon my playing that one card. I will tell you how boldly and how skilfully I played “ There has been a fresh deal, my fine fellow.” said I, “ and you will find that 1 have some of the bumps in my hand this time.” I had conceived 3 great. respect. for his nudgcity and. regggrce.” _ it. It was hardly light before my hugler blew the assembly, and out we trotted on to the plain. My prisoner was placed on horseback in the very centre of the troops. It chanced that there was a large tree just out of musket-shot from the main gate of the Abbey. and under this we halted. Had they opened the great doors in order to attack us, I should have charged home upon them ; but, as I had expected, they stood upon the defensive, lining the long wall and pouring down a torrent of hoot- ingl and taunts and derisive laughter upon us. A few fired their muskets, but finding that we were out of reach they soon ceased to waste their powder. It was the strang- est sight to see that mixture of uniforms, French, English, and Portuguese, cavalry, infantry. and artillery, ell wagging their heads and shaking their fists at us. “You will get your desertsâ€"you may depend upon that.” -v n t‘ I eel: nothing more. You may not be nware of m exalted birth, but I am so placed that cannot name my father with- out treason, nor my mother withc ut a scan- daL I cannot claim Royalhonours,buttheae things are so much more graceful when they are conceded thhout a claim. The thongs are cutting my skin. Might I beg you to loosen them '2” “ I tr'ust,” said he, “ that your men will treatime in a} becoming manner.” “You will permit me, mons'ienr, to undo your colhr, ” skid Papilecte, with mock politeness. ' â€" “If your hands are perfectly clean,” answered our prisoner, and set the whole hug-squadron laughing. __ There was another yell from the wall, followed by a profound hush as the noose was tightened round Marshal Millefleurs’ neck. Then came ashriek from s bugle, the Abbey gates flew open, and three men rushed out waving white cloths in their hsnds. Ah; how my heart bounded with joy at the sight of them. And yet I would not advance an inch to meet them, so that all the eagerness might seem to be upon their side. I allowed my trumpeter, how- ever, to save a handkerchief in reply, upon which .the three envoys came running to- wsrdsus. The Marshal, still pinioned,snd with the rope round his neck, sat his horse with s h‘elf smile, as one who is slightly bored and yet strives out of courtesy not to show it. If I were in such e'situstion I could not wish to carry myself better, and surely I csu say no more than that. “ Touche,” he cried, like a pinked fenc- er. “But. here come your men, so it, matters little whether you loosen them or not.” - “You do not give me credit for much intelligence." I remarked. repeating his own words. My word, their hubbnb soon died away when we opened our ranks, and showed whom we had got in midst of us! There waseilence fora few seconds, and thensuch a bowl of rage and grief 3 I couid see some of them .dnncing like madmen upon the wall.

"Fourteen were cut down before they could be secured.” “And the officer 2” “He would not surrender his sword save with his life. It wu not. our fault. \Ve would have sawed him if we could.” Alas for my poor Bart. ! I had met, him but cwico,and yet. he was a man very much after my heart. 1 have always had a regard for the Enghsh for the sake of that one friend. A braver man and a worse swords- man I have never met. 1 did not, as you may think, take these rascala' word for anything. Papilette was dispatched with one of themyand returned to any that. it. was too true. I had now to thinlg of the living. "You will release the thirty-seven dra- goons if I free‘ your leader '3” “We will give you ten of them." “Up with him !” I cried. “Twenty,” shouted the chasseur. “No more words,” and I. “Pull on the row E’.’ . . “All of them,” cried the envoy, as the cord tightened round the Marshal’s neck. “Wish horaea and arms '2” They could see that I was not a man to jest. with. “Au revoir,” be answered. “When you are weary of the Emperor, you will always find a commission waiting for you in the service of the Marshal Millefleuru.” “An excellent and never-failing: cure for nervous headache," said an apostle of ph) sical culture, “is the simple act of walking backWard. Just try it some time ifyou have any doubt about it. I have yet to meet the person who didn’t acknowledge its eflicacy after a trial. Vohody has as yet discovered or formulated a reason why such aprocess should bring such certain relief. P: xyeicians say that it is probably because the reflex action of the body brinfls about a reflex action of the brain, and thus drives away the pain that when reduced by nervousness is the result of too much going forward? As soon as you begin to walk backward, hOWever, there comes a feeling of everything being reversed and this is followed by relief. The relief is always certain and generally speedy. Ten minutes is the longest I huve ever found necessary. An entry, or a long narrow room makes the best place for such a pro- menade. You should walk very slowly. letting the ball of your foot touch the floor first and then the heel, Just the way, in fact, that one should, in theory, walk for- ward, but which in practice. is so rarely done. Besides curing nervous headache, there is no better way to learn to walk well and gracefully forward then the punk xice of walking backward. A half hour of it once a day will do wonders toward im- proving the gait of any woman.” “Au revoir,” Ictied, shaking my sword at, him. “The next time you may not escape so easily.” “Good-bye, my dear Colonel,” said he. “I am afraid that you will have rather a lame account. to give of your mission, when you find your way back to Mussenafihough, from all I hear,he Will probably be too busy to think of you.

I gathered my horsemen togeLhor and wheeled them into column. “And the Countess of La Ronda. as well ‘3” said I. But. here I me'u with firmer opposition. No threats of mine could induce chem to give up the Countess. We tightened the cord. We moved the horse. “’0 did all butleuve the Marshal au'pended.

As i looked upon this unfortunate old woman my soul was filled wioh wonder and disgust As for herther eyes were raised so his face with such a look as a young recruit, might give to the Emperor. “So be i-t,” said I, at last; “give me the drggocns and_let, me} go.” “By the way, you made a. small slip of the tongue, my dear Colonel,” said he. “Except. by courtesymo such person exists as the Dowager Countess of Ln.

A Cure for Headache. She Was Particular. (TO BE CONTINUED.) And a Loud One. After supper Mr. Gallup removed his shoes find coat and sat down in the big rocking-chair to look over the last issue of his county paper. For half an hour Mrs. Gallup was busy clearing off the table and washing the dishes, and as she worked she sang; “I Have a Home Over There” at the top of her voice. In a dim, indistinct way Mr. Gallup realized that Mrs. Gallup was moving about the house,and in a dim, indistinct way he realized that after her work was finished she went outdoors to see it the door of the hen-house was properly fastened and the sliding window of the woodshed secured. He had quite forgotten her existence, however, when a human figure dragged itself into the room and fell upon the lounge, and a human voice gasped out: MRS. GALLUP’S WUES “Samuelg‘come over here and take off my shoes and straighten out my legs and kiss me good-bye, fur my hour has come !” Mr. Gallup caught every word of it, bu he didn't even lift his eyes from the corn cure advertisement he had just started in to read. “Yes, Samuel, I hev hin hidden to plume my angelic wings and sail through azure skies 1” continued Mrs. Gallup, as she straightened her legs and assumed a. more comiortuble position. “I hadn't the remot- est idea. when I went out doors that the summons was at hand, but I’m hidden to go and I’m not goin’ to find fault about it I had jest cloned and buttoned the hen- house door and was lookin’ over to see if Mrs. Watkins had a. light. in her front room, when three stars suddenly fell from the sky, one after t’other, and at the same minit a. criek took me in the buck and two black cats ran across our cucumher patch with u yeowl und hospit. You know what. that means, don’t you, Samuel 1’" Mr. Gallup didn't say. He shoved his right leg under the table till his foot struck the family cut sitting there, and he rubbed his left hand over his bald head in u. car- essing way, but he had no oral opinion to otl‘er. Mrs. Gallup gathered up her apron in v. bunch and rubbed her eyes to see if it was all right to dry her tears on, and being satisfied on this point she continued : “That's: jeut‘tlxe way Mrs. Abrahmn Johnson go; but summons, and she dleu two hours later. By 10 o’clock I shall be u. (lend woman and you will be free to dye your hair. git some false teeth and go coltin’ around and putteudiu’ that you are only 40 years old.

Samuel, what, \l’yc ’spom angn-ls do when night comes 2” . ‘. r. u Mrs. Gallup's main object was to work up her emotions and bring a flow of tears, and having succeeded in this she nabbed and wiped her eyes and had a. real goui time for two minutes before saying: I ortor have a. fifty-dollar coffin, but, I’ve got an over that.

From the farmers of Canada a demand for cold storage has made itself heard. The Government has met it by an arrangement with railroads and Atlantic steamships to provide refrigerator chambers for the transportation of butter. Private enterprise is meeting it by the construction of were- houses for the storing and preservation of all kinds of perishable produce,one of which warehouses is to be opened shortly in Toronto. A cold storage system that can take care of our most perishable nature.1 products from the time they are finished up to the moment they pass into thohands of the consumer, here or abroad, will. we hope, soon be established. The benefits of uch a system it Would be hard to exagger- ate. Cold storage is nothing less than a new commercial energy, capable of doing wonders in certain lines of production and trade that come very natural to this comrâ€" try. Not only will it preserve our perishable edible-s ; it will be an influence of to foster their production. Months after wards it Will return to thc atorer or skip- per everything he put into it, complete not only as regards substance, but also as re- gards the intangible qualities of flavour, Ireshneas, colour etc. To our trade in such articles an butter, cheese, eggs, poul- try, fresh meats, freeh fish, and fresh Xruita or all kinds, it opens up a future that could not have been dreamt of a few years ago. It is our one means of rising to uni rightful position as a. great butler-export- ing nation. Without cold storage in fact our aim to capture any considerable portion of the British demand for butter is an idlt ambition. V\ ithout it we would be hope- lessly handicapped in the competition With Denmark and Australia. With it there is no reaeon why we should not hoist our butter exports up to the high mark our cheese exports have reached, and enrich oursclx es by fifteen or sixteen million dol- lars a year fiom this one source. (Joli; storage would also put us in anew position as exporters of eggs. We can increase our output of egg to any extent the demand may call for, and undoubtedly the British demand would open out largely on our side if Wr‘. could furnish the strictly {rt-st. article, as Wc could out of a perfect system of cold storage. in a frozen meat trade we could greatly supplement our export trade in live cattle and sheep. If cold storage answers all the expectations thai have been formed of it, its influence will tell like magic on our fruit-raising industry. if it enables us to deliver peaches, pears, cherries, plums, small Merrie-3, early apples. tomatoes, and various like products in good condition on the British market, there will be many worth of Wealth produced on : shipped in that farm. Tests made in bid: lixi-erimcii tul lorm at Ottawa. have draiiiouslixiicd that ull the qualities of some of the most delicate fruits can be retained for months in cold storage. Apples can certainly be kept as they left the tree. The effect of cold storage on the apple trade alone would be worth millions to us. Only a very small part of the demand for perish- able fruits is at present within the reach of producers. The demand for fine eating upples, for fresh peaches, pears. etc., exists all the year round, but the supply can only catch it for a moment, so to spank. Cold storage would stretch the supply that arm has such a brief existence over months. It therefore makes a. market for a many imes larger supply. To say nothing of the export trade, the home trade would be immensely increased if perishable fruit:~ could be held in their fresh state for several months. Under the genial influence of cold storage our trade in edibles would no doubt be increased many fold. The pro- ducer lodges his productiu the cold storage warehouse, where its decay is arrested while he waits for a favourable market. The company that is establishing cold storage warehouses in Toronto and Mun- treul is enteriniar upon a business that will prove of great benefit to the country.
