CHAPTER X.
COSCLUBIOS.
The remaining hostile uniform lingered
beside Valentine’s chair in the salon
Max held one of that young lady’s hands
while she rested tfae bther on the arm of
the chair and listened to his experience
of the night. He told of his leaving the
grotto; of his meeting with Gaston, and
of that gentleman’s mendacious account
of Valentine’s groundless fears; and of
bis escape from Givres. He in turn
heard the truth of the matter from Mons.
d’Avelon with great indignation. AH
this was being recounted while Miss El
len went about her usual household du
ties as if nothing unusual had occurred,
betraying her inward state only by tbe
pale face and compressed lips. She or
dered a separate breakfast to be laid in
the, salon for Valentine and the German,
ansf softly taking Mons. d’Avelon’# arm
led him into the dining room and closed
the door after them.
“Ah,” exclaimed d’Avelon glancing at
this precaution. “You think it best to
leave the young folks alone just now?
You are right, and only your delicacy of
feeling would have suggested that, Ellen.”
“You misunderstand me if you impute
it to my ‘delicate regard’ for the ‘young
folks,’ Mons. d’Aveldn,"
“Hra; you are very sarcastic, Ellen,
and are looking displeased—what is the
matter? Are yon displeased because I'
have given my consent to an unavoidable
arrangement, after I had seen that a re
fusal was needless? I think it is all tbe
Same to you whether this German—who
between ourselves is more after my own
heart than that rascally Gaston—or some
one else becomes my son-in-law. It can
not change om relations.”
“It changes them very much, Mons.
d’Avelon," she almost snapped. “I have
closed the door in order to undeceive you
—you are being duped, Mons. d’A velon
f»
“Mons. d’Avelon ! Mons. d’Avelon !
you have fl ing that at me- three times in
a few moments. And so lam being dup
ed, MUs Ellen Stoughton ? Who is dup
ing; me, pray r
,4> ThiB German!—they are all hypo
crites—these honest, upright Germans !
and he" —pointing over her shoulder—
the craftiest and most deceitful of them
all!”
“Oh—indeed—why ?”
‘"He is poverty stricken—
“ ‘Povery stricken !’ ” be interrupted.
“Weli, heaven knows I once had the
pleasure of occupying that honorable po
sitinn for some time—and I assure you
the trade is not so very miserable. Yes,
one even recalls the lime of one’s ap
prenticeship at the trade -with a certain
longing”—he continued musingly—“do
you know there are hours when a self
made man wishes he was a poverty-strick
en devil again? Herr Von Daveland
holds a government position, he is in the
magistracy—”
“Ami why don’t you aiJd of good fami
ly ?” interrupted Ellen sarcastically.
D’Avelon )*>ft t&e eg® be was about to
break fall into the cup and looked at her
in surprise
“Why do you say that in such a mail
clous tone, Ellen?”
~ “You were remarkably anxious to know
about his nativity a day ago—why should
I not speak of it now ?”
“derpent, that you are—what does this
concern you ?” he exclaimed rather
roughly.
“If it concerned me us it does you I
would have investigated things more
closely !” she retorted caustically.
“It is very evident you have not neg
lected to do so—speak out—what do you
mean ?
“This German is your nephew, and he
has come expressly to drive you from
your house and home. He asserts that
you stole the family jewels, an<3 purchas
ed this estate with the proceeds of their
sale—in other words in means that all
you possess rightfully belongs to him.”
/Mods d’Avelon sal bolt upright in his
chair and stared at her with frightened
eyes.
“He confessed all this to Gaston”—she
continued relentlessly—“be told Gaston
with barefaced effrontery that Valentine
was penniless—that she would inherit
nothing—that he was sole master of all
this estate —that your last franc—are you
listening; Mons. d'Avelon?” she asked
suddenly.
“lam listening, Miss Ellen—go on !”
he said in a low voice, his breath coming
rapidly, as he sank back in his chair.
“Horrified at this shameless communi
cation”—she continued—“ Gaston —”
“Confided m you ?" he inquired.
“Confided in me”—without noticing
the interruption—“because he required
assistance—
“Assistance for whet?" again he inter-
rupted
“To enter this house without noise in
,order to seize the German and send him,
a prisoner of war, far enough away to
render him harmless to us.”
“Ah—this was why Mon's. Gaston was
at the bead of his savage villains!”
“He wanted to save your .honor, Moos.
d’Avelon— be wanted to save you at the
rijk of ids own life, for had the Germans
learned bis complicity in the p’ot they
would not have spared him. This is
w hat, he wanted to do fdr you, and you
thank him for his whole daring by break
in-: your promts 1 id him and yielding to
\ ah i.t nt’s childish whim !’’’
“I never gave any promise to him,”
said d’Avelon slowly in a half audible
tone.
.He rose from and paced the
floor thoughtfully. Miss Ellen’s glances
followed him silently.
“You understand now, I hope, that
Gaston is entitled to Something better
than a—laconic dismissal?" at last she
began, 'after waiting .vainly for him to
speak. “Even If Ga9ton s .wcre not. the.
heir of Givres, he is stil ULe only one—be
side mysdf ’ —she emphasized the pronoun
— f ‘wbo fortunately."—
"Oh cease with your Gaston, Ellen V*
he interrupted.suddenly, "The devil
may thank him for presuming to act my
deliverer! He may think of ir as a
Frenchman—think that anything is ad
missable toward the German, becuase
they happen to be enemies just now—but
/think it was a mean, dastardly trick he
meant to perform !”
"He meant to save you!” in a cool,
taunting tone.
“Save thed—! I don’t need his as
sistance, and he shall leave me unsaved
in the future—and proclaim to the world
instead, that I am a diamond thief, for all
I care. Unforluately it is too true 1 I was
once a spiteful, obstinate fellow, who im
agined he could right an injustice. Since
then my conscience has punished me
sorely enough for the deed, I can tell you!
and what Gaston can say can have little
weight now. But let me tell you, Miss
Ellen, I do not fear Gaston; should he
proclaim that I was a thief I w ill declare
it a malicious libel, which he invented for
my refusal of Valentine. Whom do you
think the 'world will believe—him or .me?
Which will sound more probable—that I
am a thief or he a vindictive, discarded
admirer? Besides there is a tribunal
which punishes persons for saying things
they cannot prove—l am prepared for
anything, you see.”
"You take the matter very phligmati
cally to-day," exclaimed Ellen spitefully.
‘ When you first learned the German’s
name yon were not quite so composed.”
“No—l was not. But then he was a
perfect stranger, of whom I had cause to
fear; now he will be lenient with me, as
as prospective son-in-law.”
Ellen shrugged her shoulders angrily.
“Does Valentine’s fate give you so lit
tle cmcern?”
“Valentine’s fate—why should I troub
le myself more than a father ever,troubles
himself when he is compelled to give op
his child."
•“is
“Is it not plain enough that Herr Von
Daveland has only ensnared Valentine
because it was the most convenient and
shortest way to—balance accounts with
you.”
“And ought I not to thank God lhat I
can ‘balance accounts’ in this manner ?
have we not had sufficient evidence that
Valentine loves him?”
. “And you hope for leniency from one
of these sordid, mercenary, ungenerous
Germans? I never dreamed you capable
of so much simplicity, Mons- d’Aveion,
I-”
“And I, Miss Ellen'.—interrupted he,
losing all patience—“never dreamed you
capable of so much indifference for Val
entine’s happiness ; and still less did I
imagine you unscrupulous enough to en
courage Gaston’s infamous plot against
my guest! ’ .
“Then we mentally agree to having
been deceived in each other!” exclaimed
the lady with a defiant toss.
“So U seems!” reluWd d’Avelon la
conically.
Miss Ellen could imagine that the fath
er-in Jaw of a man, to whose generosity
he would owe everything, was a far less
desirable parti, than than the father in
law of Gaston de Ribcaupierre. who had
promished her marvels in event of their
succeeding in their mutual designs. So
she made no attempt to make peace with
her angry companion ; much less did he,
for he was enraged at her partisanship for
Gaston, who was irrevocably lost in his
esteem—angry at her countenancing a
plot which was base treachery, and furi
ous at himself that her spiteful words had
enough of importance to pierce his heart
with a foreboding-care.
Would the man he bad so readily re
ceived into his affections, perhaps a", some
future day with justice denounce him?
Might not the time come when slight dif
ferences would lead to greater—and the
father’s misfortune had not softened the
son’s feeling. Mons. d’Avelon pondered
these questions deeply as be paced rest
lessly through the room ; the load upon
his heart grew heavier and heavier. At
last he seized his hat and without a word
went into the garden ; he would see the
servants at their work—this had ever had
the charm of banishing disagreeable med
itations.
In the courtyard he heard the sound of
horses’ hoofs, and looking up beheld Gas
ton approaching rapidly. He went for
ward to meet the young man, who drew
up at his side and without speaking drew
a paper from his pocket and banded it to
Mons. d’Aveion with a triumphant air.
“What is this?’’ asked d’Avelon rather
coldlv.
‘‘Something, that -will make y«*u par
don me if you have not altogether forgiv
en me for last night’s disturbance,” he ex
claimed thoughtfully. “This paper will
make the matter appear in a different
light. You did not dream what a clever
schemer you welcomed in the person of
ibis German officer, nor what anxiety for
your welfare and peace of mind induced
me to attempt to fender this fool harm
less. You know how illy my plan suc
ceeded at first; later, fortune threw the

I think yon will thank me—”, '■ .i i>;
“Aye—tbit Ido indeed f” Interrupted
reading the paper, a light break*
lug over hia face. “Yon relieve mylheart
of a heavy harden with this paper. Hum.
OastoD, thatl was on the ere of bradciog
with you forever—much as it would! have
grieved me for the sake of your
mother—on account of your shameless
action toward my gaest. But youjhave
brought *me amends in this papery—the
treasure which proves In black and White

Daveland is for writing, this renunciation
of his own i free will—l repeat it, of hie

about compelling him to do it—l dd not
believe one word of it—he is not the man
to be intimidated by you! I now see
how unnecessary and ridiculous my 1 fears
were that he would ever quarrel with me!
Indeed, Gaston”—here he drew a deep
breath of relief—“let by-gones be by
gones. I shall never forget that yongave
me this comforting paper In the darkest
hour of my life—for I tell yon it is not
very pleasant to think you have not only
sacrificed your daughter, but that you are
also in danger of being denounced-”
“What in the name of Satan are yon
talking about, Mona. d’A.relon,” hastily
interrupted Gaston with a corse• "sacri
ficed your daughter—you bare not sacri
ficed—”
"No —no —you are right,” interposed
d’A reion musingly, as he folded the pa
per and carefully placed it in his breast.
*‘l hare not sacrificed her—no? /had lit
tle to do in the matter; Valentine gar©
herself to him—and so that is the end of
It. You must—”
“Valentine has given herself—ah yon
are jesting, Mona. d’Avelon !” he exclaim'
ed with pale lips.
“It is as I tell you. Valentine is be
trolhed to my nephew, Max Von Dav.e
land"—he pronounced the name proudly
—“it is a fact, Gaston, and facts, yon
know, are sometimes rather unpleasant."
“And you coolly tel) me this to my
face
“Do you wish me to write it down for
you ?” impatiently.
The enraged young gentleman stared
at him for a moment with furious eyes.
Mods. d 1 Avelon returned the gaze calm
ly. in the end cowing Gaston’s threaten*
ing mein.
With a muttered curse he turned and
galloped away.
Mons. de Ribeau pierre was at that mo
ment filled with revengefol,thoughts; and
yet, ere he reached Givres court be had
come to the conclusion that the game was
lost—that there was nothing more for
him to attain at the Ferme des Au|ea,
and that all his plans of vengeancc wfluld
bring him neither Valentine nor the es
tate, and be was not the man to risk hi S
head when there was nothing to be gain
ed
And so Max Daveland was left to the
unmolested enjoyment of his love as long
as be was garrisoned at Void, and as oft
en as bis strict superior, Captain Yon
Sontheim, gave him permission to pass
the d»y at the Feme. * The boors spent
there passed all the more pleasantly be
cause be believed his uncle never sus
pected how nearly akin be was to his fu
ture son inlaw.
Valentine certainly never dreamed it,
nor did her hither ever mape the slightest
allusion to it. Max learned to love and
revere the man who bad robbed him of
patrimony, spile of bis youthful trans
gressions.
But at last the secret was revealed, and
and this was in the summer of the year
1871, when Max, after the declaration of
peace, and once more installed in bis gov
ernment office, returned to the Ferme to
take upon himself the marriage vows. In
the settlements there were several troub
lesome documents necessary, whjch Max
offered tb his father in-law, deeply agita
ted.
Mens. d’Avclon scanned them careless
ly, then with a voice full of emotion said:
“Don’t you think you played your part
of concealment toward your old uncle
rather 100 well, dear Max ?”
“Is it not the part of every lover in the
comedy, my dearest uncle?” returned
Max in surprise, and at the same time re
joiced at bis uncle’s manner of accepting
the situation. *
“In a comedy ?” repeated d’Avelon—
“yes, you are right, it has ended as sach,
thank God! But the play began many
years ago with a very tragical act for me.
whose purport was a conflict between jus
tice, anger and conscience—let us not re*
call those recollections to day. How
thankful you should be you are beginning
life honestly—how much better you start
than I—l began life by stealing dia
monds—
“And I,” interrupted Max generously,
“I receive the moat precious jewel in the
world as a gill— ’’
“No—no,” interrupted the old gentle*
man in turn, as be laid his hand caress
ingly on his nephew's shoulder, “you
have purchased it honestly with a brave,
honest heart!’’
He embraced him warmly, and this
was the first and last lime that either of
them mentioned The Familt Jewels.
A vouko preacher having tried to
preach a sermon from the text, “Remem
ber Lot's wife,” and made a failure, t a ven
erable doctor remarked that he “bad
better thereafter let other geopile’s wives
alone.”
