.gene's retreating figure. I never spoke -of my brother again. I felt that, were •circumstances to renew the broken tie of kindred between my brother and my.-eli, I must decide for brother or father alone —I should not be able to reconcile the two duties. Ah! I did not know how soon the choice would have to be made. "We had paid short visits to Paris several times during the preceding years but I was not formally introduced to tho Comte's circle of acquaintance until about eighteen months ago. It was then that I met Francisqne Carayon, a young officer of the Chasseurs d' Afrique, whom the Comte regarded almost as a son."

Here Reifie's voice faltered, and tears welled in her soft gray eyes. After a pause, she continued: "Captain Carayon was not rich—at least, from the point of view of a great territorial proprietor, like the Comte de ChayoIIes but, in his own opinion, the small fortune left to him by his father, joined to the pay of a cavalry officer, was enough for pleasure, enough for ambition. I cannot describe the influence that drew us together. We met frequently. '.The Comte saw with pleasure our growing intimacy, and we were affianced, when the greatest misfortune of my life befell me. *'As I passed out of the hotel with Franbisque, to take our morning rid is I lnid often noticed an ill-dressed, slouching figure watching the house curiously. _He glanced at me with a leer once or twice, and I averted my gaze, shuddering. There were remains of beauty in the man's face, but its general aspect was one of savage pride and envy the lips looked distorted the eyes satiated and yet hungry the forehead was traversed by premature wrinkles, and surmounted by short, crisp curls, rapidly becoming gray. The watcher was dressed with that ostentatious disregard of accepted rules, that proclaims a nature at war with society and all its laws and sovereign representatives. One day I stopped my horse as I was entering the courtyard, stooped, and offered the man a piece of silver. He waved a refusal abruptly, and muttered, in a low.angry voice, 'No, no not here, Mademoiselle lieine de ChayoIIes!' "I had never taken my guardian's name, and the words surprised me. But what haunted me most was the voice that spoke them and it was with something like a fanciful presentiment that I heard, two days after, that a man, waiting at the porter's lodge, insisted on seeing me. I went down. It was he who had refused my alms. He raised his cap, pushed back his hair, and, ere he spoke, I recognized my brother. 'Is Aliss de ChayoIIes disengaged?' he inquired, ironically. "'I-iushj' I said, taking him by the Arm. •Come into the street we shall be freer there.' "He obeyed, and in a moment we were walking side by .Vide toward the Tuileries gardens. 'Oh. Eugene, what lias become of you?' I asked, tremulously, for the shock had moved me like a sudden plunge into icy water. 'Ay, I'm not so creditable an escort as that pink and white puppet on the bay mare who trots .about with you in the morning.' 'I did not mean that, you know, Eugene. What have you been doing?' 'Starving, drinking, playing, plotting. What would you have a penniless scamp do in this city of palaces and hovels? You haven't been starving much, eli?' "The tone was mocking but I fancied there was a ring of kindly interest in it, for all that. We were still near the-Com-te de ChayoIIes' hotel, and I was fearful of being recognized by a servant or visitor, so I said, 'Tou are in danger here, Eugene. 1 will come and see you meanwhile, take this.' "He accepted the proffered purse, and said, sourly, 'I suppose I ought not to take his money but I've not dined for weeks, and it's always so niuch squeezed out of the parasites, after all. Ay, come and see me. ily gate-keeper isn't in livery, but you shiJ'u't wait at the lodge.' "I promised, and in a few moments wo parted. "I saw him frequently after that, monsieur, stealing out veiled whenever I fancied I should not be missed at home. He had grown more morose and intractable thai! ever but, in spite of his rough sarcasms, his violence when the Comte or Francisque were spoken of, I felt that I was the one creature in tho world whose death he would mourn. "A month or two before this the Comte had become acquainted with' Miss Juliet Summerson and her mother, fashionable Americans, who gave better balls than the Russian ambassador, and who knew more people than Alexandre Dumas. Juliet, had that pale, delicate beauty which seems to announce a taint of negro blood. Her face is so perfect as to elicit something like an undisguised murmur of admiration when she enters a room so perfect as to become almost irksome and disquieting. She became, not exactly my friend—I don't think she could have a woman friend—but my companion, and. in some degree, my counsellor for a girl will always ask for important advice, which she never follows, at lier first engagement. Not long after Juliet and I became acquainted,*"I was in sore need of advice, only I dared not ask for any.

Suspicion was aroused, I thought. The Comte would ask c.uiiously where I had been, when I entered his room, ilushed with my rapid walk to Eugene's lodgings, half-crying, perhaps, at some new violence or perverse theory of the scapegrace I was trying vainly to reclaim. Juliet would'embarrass me by remarking that I walked too jnuch. Only M. de Boisrobert.—he was Francisque's most inr timate friend, and, of course, often with xis—seemed discreet, and pained by tho

"I locked

Even Fran-

there nearly two hours for a 'party of swells who were dining hard by.' "Eugene was not seriously ill but rheumatism increased by negligence, and the hazards of his lawless life, kept him a prisoner. Suffering had softened him a little. 'Oh, here you are, Duchess!'—he derided my noble friends by that pseudonym. 'Independence is all very well but, hang it, it's pleasant to have some one to talk to when one's laid by the heels like this. That stupid concierge wouldn't even fetch me some hot water, because I owe her ten francs!' "'Eugene, dear, I must go directij, said, when he had mixed himself a tumliler full of hot water and brandy 'they think I am in my room sleeping.' 'And that baby-faced Captain will be wanting you to sing -mawkish duets with him. All, Heine, if he were here in my place, how lontr would you remain? 'Perhaps I should not, have come at all. Don'.t talk about him he shall never stand between us 'On vour oath?' 'On my oath. There.be good and don't go out again until 1 come.' "He kissed me kindly, and I hurried awnv. "There was a rustle of drapery on tho stairs. I saw a woman, whose face I have seen constantly since that evening, and a young man get into a cab at the door, and drive rapidly in the direction of the Tuileries. I went home with a nameless fear in my heart. "Late that night my maid brought mo a note, scratched in pencil. It was from Francisque, and ran as follows:—

"'Rome, you have deceived me, for what purpose 1 know not. I followed you this evening, guided by a creature jealousy made me mad, reckless enough to employ—followed you to your lover's home. Why not, have told me? Was it fortune you needed?—mine was, and remains, at your disposal. The position, the seeming degradation, of him you have chosen, sadden me unutterably but it is the deceit that pains me—so cold and grasping a cupidity in one so young! I will not dwell upon what this discovery means for me—my life broken, my faith in honest eyes and innocent smiles wrecked forever! I will, only ask you to let me help you in the life you have chosen in any way that does not compel us to meet, and to believe that, I forgive you. Clement de Boisrobert will help you in everything necessary to your happiness and well-be-ing. Trust him as you would trust your friend, 'FRA:- CISQUE

CAI:A.YOT.'

"Can I describe the scene of utter loneliness and misery that fell upon me? Every one abandoned me then. The Comte went to his chateau, leaving me a note, in which he bade me look upon myself as before— heiress to his fortune, and mistress, for the moment, of all he would have endowed me with on my marriage with Francisque— six thousand a year, I was told. I wrote to Francisque and to him, telling them I could not explain my conduct, and that I was -resigned to suffer their interpretations until some unforseen event should undeceive them. Then I appealed to Clement. I had "elected to earn my bread, as I should have done after my father's death. Clement obtained this apartment in a house where, he said, a young girl would be safe and well cared for. It was not until I had been several weeks in the house that I recognized in Madame Michon, the woman I had seen with Francisque on the staircase of Eugene's house. Clement ridiculed the idea, and I abandoned it for a time but now my suspicions are confirmed. "So I commenced a grisette's life. Eugene had recovered, and was working a little and—who knows?—I might have lived honorably in peace, if they had only let me!"

CHAPTER IY.

A'GRISETTE'S STOR"! C02JTIXUED. ...

"I have told you it was Clement de Boisrobert who brought me here. I wanted to live as a simple work-girl, because, in my heart, I felt fully that my easy, artificial existence as the Comte de ChayoIIes' adopted daughter was at an end, and never for one moment regretted its luxuries and refinements but I confess I had imagined a brighter home than that which Francisque's friend found for me. The rooms were poorer and more desolate than those of our farm laborers at Arques the furniture was old and scanty. Clement seemed to have forgotten everything save the absolute necessities of a pauper lite and yet the few deal boards and rusty ironwork he had procured swallowed up more than half the small sum I had obtained bv the sale of the trinkets and uicknacks my father had left me. I could not, I would not murmur, however, I had chosen my own" path, and .would not be disappointed at not finding it paved with rose-leaves at the outset, So my face was serene when, Clement, came on the morrow of my installation, to hold what he called a committee of ways and means. "We summed up my accomplishments they were neither few nor mean. Madcap as I hacl been at'tho chateau, my-masters had succeeded in tilling my head and occupying my hands with at least as many pretty futilities as compose the stock of instruction of most 'finished' young litdies. "'But,' said Clement, 'teaching won t. do. You would want references—all kinds of guarantees for that. And who is to furbish them? A young man's recommendation would scandalize otherwise, I should, of course, be at your service. You would not- care to appeal to the Comte's friends, I

suppose? Few of them, I am afraid, are sufficiently charitable to attribute this change in*your life to anything short of a crime on your part. Besidef, you have haughty masters former

even momentarily. She had news from Algeria, but the tidings hurt me so, I could not but believe that she wished to cure me of all loving regrets by making them known. Francisque was at every one of the Governor's balls, and had fought a duel about a native dancing girL Such was the account she gave. After her second visit, Juliet never came again and the work I was to do for her was left in my hands, as you saw it this morning:. "And now I needed the poorest pittance* the roughest work, so that it yielded ma bread and fuel. Four months after leaving the Comte's house, 1 knew what hunger meant—knew.the real prosaic misery I had cried over, then forgotten, when reflected in my girlish novels. It was a terrible time. I was so new to poverty, that its lightest necessities shocked and humiliated me. It was an agony to ask that woman below to intercede for mo with the landlord. It was a poignant shame to give her paltry things to pledgo lor a few francs. And when there came, one evening, a knock at my door, and Eugene entered', better dressed and smiling, I flew to him without hesitation, and begged to be'taken away from this anywhere, so that I might work with him, speak with him, and feel less utterly alone. "But he was goiYig. lie had come to bid good-bye. "'Come, come, child,' he said, in his old skeptical fashion, 'things are not so bad w^th you. It's tho vapors you caught among your dukes and countesses. They are phiguey out of place in a garret!' And then, looking round the bare room, he added, more seriously, 'But yours is a garret, with a vengeance! Why, what have you been doing—is your work good for nothing?' "I showed him a child's frock I was embroidering it was one of the best pieces of work. Madame Michon found it for me. 'This is all I can do. It cost me five days' labor, and they will not give me more than four francs for it.' "'Why, who is robbing you in this way? Swindlers as tho shopkeepers all are, there's not one in Paris who wouldn't give fifteen francs for a thing like this, and be glad of the bargain.' "I told him what Mrs. Michon said, and he drew along whistling breath. 'Oh! the swindlers are hearer home, then! Well, never mind, Reine. I am going into the country—got a capital post through a friend of mine—a big swell, like your red and white captain. 'I shall make a heap of money. Who knows?— the prodigal may come back respectable. Here, take this, child, and have nothing more to do with the old hag down stairs. I'll send you some more in a week or two. Your blackguard of a brother isn't quite so forgetful as the noble Count, your exguardian.' "He put several gold pieces in my hand, and went in a moment, without further oxylanatioo."

I found the medi cine possessed th.e most wonderful virtnes. effecting cures of all diseases, originating from bad blood or wenkness of the syst&n, as if by magic. At last thevlemand became so great that I lound myself called upon to supply patients with medicln in all parts of tlie continent, and I was compelled to establish a Labratory for compounding and bottling the Root Bitters in large quantities.
