eS — | -— Monsieur Beaucaire By BOOTH TARKINGTON, Author of ‘“The Gentleman From Indiana’ and *‘The Conquest of Canaan.” Copyright, 1900, by McClure, Phillips & Co. [Continued from last week. | “A man of the parts,” continued the young Frenchman, “and of deportment. Is it not so? Have you seen me of a fluster or gross ever or, what shall I say—bourgeois? Shall you be shame’ for your | guest’ manner? No, no! And my appearance, is it of the people? Clearly no. Do I not compare in taste of apparel with your yo'ng | Englishman? Ha, ha! To be hope’. Ha, ha! So I am goin’ talk with Lady Mary Carlisle.” “Bah!” The duke made a savage burlesque. “ ‘Lady Mary Car- lisle, may I assume the honor of presenting the barber of the Marquis | de Mirepoix? So, is it?” “No, monsieur,” smiled the young man. “Quite not so. Yon | shall have nothing to worry you, nothing in the worl’. TI am goin’ to | assassinate my poor mustachio—also remove this horrible black | peruke and emerge in my own hair. Behol’!” He swept the heavy, | curled mass from his head as he spoke, and his hair, coiled under the great wig, fell to his shoulders and sparkled yellow in the candle light. | He tossed his head to shake the hair back from his cheeks. “When it is dress’, I am transform’. Nobody can know me. Yon shall observe. | See how little I ask of you—how very little bit. No one shall rec- | o’nize ‘M. Beaucaire’ or ‘Victor.’ Ha, ha! ’Tis all arrange’. You | have nothing to fear.” | “Curse you,” said the duke, “do you think I’m going to be sad- | dled with you wherever I go as long as you choose ?” | “A mistake. No. All I requir'—all I beg—is this one evening. | "Tis all shall be necessary. After, I ehall not need monsieur.” f “Take heed to yourself-—after!” vouchsafed the Englishman be- | tween his teeth. | “Conquered I” cried M. Beorasi=s «= alav =~ his hands gleefull. “Conquered for the night! Aha, it is riz’nable! I shall meet what you send—after. One cannot hope too much of vour patience. It is but natural you should attemp’ a little avengement for the rascal trap | T wos sneh a wicked fellow as to set for von. I shall meet some | etrange {riou’s of yours after tonight. Not so? I must try to be not too much frighten.” He looked at the duke curiously. “You wunt | to know why I create this tragedy, why I am so unkind as to entrap | monsieur His grace of Winterset replied with a chill glance. A pulse in | the nobleman’s cheek beat less relentlessly. His eye raged not so bit- | | i terly. The steady purple of his own color was returning. His voice | was less hoarse. He was regaining his habit. “’Tis ever the manner | of the vulgar,” he observed, “to wish to be seen with people of fashion.” ) “Oh, no, no, no!” The Frenchman laughed. “’Tis not that. Am I not already one of these ‘men of fashion? I lack only the rep- utation of birth. Monsieur is goin’ supply that. Ha, ha! 1 shall be | noble from tonight. ‘Vietor,” the artis’, is condemn’ to death. His | throat shall be cut with his own razor. ‘AM. Beaucaire’ ”— Hare the | young man sprang to his feet, caught up the black wig, elapped into it | a dice box from the table and hurled it violently through the open | door. ““M. Beaucaire’ shall be choke’ with his own dice box. Who | is the Phoenix to remain? What advantage have I not over other | men of rank who are merely born to it? I may choose my own. No! | Choose for me, monsieur. Shall I be chevalier, comte, vicomte, mar quis—what? None. Out of compliment to monsieur can I wish to be anything he is not? No, no! I shall be M. le Due, M. le Duc de— de Chateaurien. Ha, ha! You sce? You are my confrere.” | i i { M. Beaucaire trod a dainty step or two, waving his hand politely | to the duke, as though in invitation to join the celebration of his rank. The Englishman watched, his eye still and harsh, already gathering in craftiness. Beaucaire stopped suddenly. “But how I forget my age! I am twenty-three,” he said, with a sigh. “I rejoice too much to be of the quality. It has been too great for me, and I had always belief’ myself free of such ambition. I thought it was enough to behol’ the opera without wishing to sing; but no, England have teach’ me I have those vulgar desire’. Monsieur, I am goin’ tell you a secret. The ladies of your country are very diffrunt than ours. One may adore the demoiselle, one must worship the lady of England. Our ladies have the—it is the beauty of youth. Yours remain comely at thirty. Ours are flowers. Yours are stars! See, I betray myself, I am so poor a patriot. And there is one among these stars—ah, yes, there is one—the poor Frenchman has observe’ from his humble dis- tance. Even there he could bask in the glowing!” M. Beaucaire turned to the window and looked out into the dark. He did not seo the lights of the town. When he turned again he had half forgotien his prisoner. Other pictures were before him.

Women try all kinds of nerve quiet ing potions which are offered as a care for uervousness, in the form of ‘‘compounds’’ or “‘nervines.”” And yet no care is effected. The relief is only temporary. The reason is that these potions are opiates and nar- coties. They put the nerves to sleep for a time, but when they wake again their con- dition is worse than before. Modern medi- cine recognizes the relation of this nervous condition in women to the forms of disease «hich affect the sensitive womauly organs. To cure the nervousness the cause muss be removed. The use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Preseri will result in the care of weak- ening drains, inflammation, ulceration and bearing-down pains, the common causes of nervousness in women. Nothing is just as good as ‘Favorite Prescription,” because nothing else is as barmless or as sure. It contains no alcohol, and is absolutely free from opium, cocaine and other nareotios.
