' NORMANDY J WILLIAM R. A. WILSON CHAPTER XV. WHEREIN FRONTEN At." ASSI'MES I THE ROLE OF GUARDIAN. AND i TWO FAMILIAR FACES REAPPEAR. ' Two years passed, and affairs of mo ment, affecting closely the lives and fortune of all the chief actors in this New World drama, were enacted iu Quebec. For a time the new asstjeia tion of fur-traders, whose support La Salle had with difficulty obtained, were content with their venture and looked forward to the day when they could reasonably expect to hear tidings of the expedition's success. Their confi dence resisted for a time attacks made by Duchesneau, through the crafty Jacques Le Ber and other agents against the enterprise. But little by little, as no news came and the efforts of the indefatigable intendant were unremitting, their assurance was weakened. La Salle's personality, had he been there, would have been suffi cient to hold their allegiance, and Frontenac himself could doubtless have allayed their uneasiness. Affairs of state, however, had compelled him to devote all his time to their disentan glement. His relations with Duches aeau became more and more strained; the council showed itself more unruly; failure in their crops had made the ••.eighboring farmers dissatisfied; their demands for government assistance became more clamorous, while the ex pected aid from the king had been de layed and was destined to prove to ibe little better than an empty promise. Thus the first vague fears for the success of the expedition had become, thanks to the Intendant's machina tions, a settled feeling of dissatisfac tion and unrest; and when a messen ger finally arrived with a tale of La Salle's misfortunes and difficulties, the anger of the discontents became open. (Hence the seizure of all of the avail able property of La Salle at this junc ture. Frontenac did his utmost to placate these men, and it was only the iexpected arrival in September (of the year following that in which Tonti and his comrades had set out from Quebec) of the king's ship that kept them from taking further active meas ures for securing legal redress for their losses. The possibility of an al teration in the plans of the king for his colonies; of material aid from the royal treasury; of a change in offi cials—all caused a suspension of hos tilities on the part of the warring par ties and individuals. I Once more did the cliffs and shores re-echo to the roar of cannon, as the long expected messenger from behind the horizon's rim folded its sails and anchored peacefully in the basin be fore the town. Again were letters read from king and minister exhort ing loyal subjects to maintain amica ble relations amongst themselves, and ,10 exercise all due economy in the ad ministration of affairs; again did the suitors swarm to the marriage market and carry away the new consignment •of "king's girls." In many ways the ship's arrival had proved a disappoint ment. The amount of money sent had been wofully short of the sum asked ffor; of the 200 soldiers he had im plored the king to dispatch for the proper garrisoning of the various posts, and the overawing of the sav ages who had given increasing signs of unfriendliness to the French, Fron tenac had received but GO. It was while reviewing mentally the general situation that the governor sat at his desk, the morning after the ship's arrival, in the great room at the Chateau, where he first dined with La Salle and Tonti. A stormy session of the council the evening before and the knowledge of the impending difficulties ahead had not deterred him from a good night's sleep. Nothing seemed to daunt the nerve of steel and heart of oak that the nmn possessed. Dan ger and difficulties only made him strive the harder. The heat of battle had been his lot all his life, whether in Louis' Dutch and Italian wars, or in a campaign against the Turk. It was. then, witti a feeling of rem wed energy and eagerness for the fray that h) surveyed the Bituatlou. "I will govern in spite of them," he ex claimed as he struck the desk, be strewn with papers before him, a vig orous blow with his fist. "Them" comprehended all who rendered his task difficult, from the procrastinating king and his minister across the seas, to the painted savage lurking in the forests of the New World. Thus with a fresh vigor and deter mination to face his most belligerent enemy boldly, he ordered a servant to admit any seeking audience with him. Imagine his surprise when he beheld before him not the intendant bringing to his attention some fresh point of dispute, or the cringing form and whining voice of Jacques Le Ber as he offered a new complaint from the trading community, but rather the face, pale and severe, of Madame Bourdon, who had again been placed in charge of the feminine portion of the ship's cargo. She was accompa nied by a veiled, girlish figure, clad in the plainest garb, who retired to one side of the room upon entering, leaving her conductress to approach the governor alone. Frontenac. on seeing Madame Bour don, immediately arose and welcomed her kindly, receiving from her band a letter, which he opened forthwiih and proceeded to read, af(cr glancing at the signature. A look of surprise and pleasure passed over his features as he recognized the handwriting and name of his wife. Anne de la Grange-Trianon, Com tesse de Frontenac, had in her six teenth year become enamored of the dashing famous young soldier who had succeeded in reaching the rank of Mareehal de Camp by the time he was 20. Though the match was opposed by her father because of her suitor's lack of large means, she was wedded to him one fine day at the little church of Saint Pierre aux Boetifs, which ha 1 the privilege of uniting couples with out the consent of their parents. A year of happiness followed, ihcn love fled, at least, on her part. She found him wayward and headstrong; he found her possessed of an imperious temper, and a restless craving for ex citement. They separated, maintain ing for each other a profound respect, although on his part it was really a tenderer feeling. She was always proud of his success, but when he left for the New World she preferred to re main behind. Her influence at cr .'t was sufficient to be of inestim'.ble service to Iter absent husband on more than one occasion. For a time the friend of mademoiselle, she finally re tired to tlie arsenal, the former resi dence of Sully, with Mile. d'Oulrelaiso, a distant cousin of Renee (the ttt'o branches of the family were on un friendly terms), whom she made her life-long companion. There, sty'fid by their admirers "Les Divines," iT.ey set up a court for themselves by the aid of their beauty and abupjant wit which attracted many, an<> gave the tone to the best company in Paris. The letter read as follows: To Louis de 13uade, do Palluau et Frontenac: I commend to your pro tection and care the young girl who bears this to you. She is Renee d'Outrclaise, a relative of my beloved friend, and pro tege of mademoiselle, who has kept her in seclusion with her for two years. News of her beauty being noised abroad, one whom you know resolved to see her and having done so became infatu ated. Fearing for her charge the same fate that befell Mile, de la Valliere and others, mademoiselle has found means of sending her out of the country as the only sure way of her escaping him. Hoping to render her position safer as well as humor the child's desire to turn temporarily a religieuse she lias asked me to intercede with you in her behalf, believing that in a couple of years she will have become effaced from a certain memory and can then return in safety. I rely upon your discretion and power to care for her. She has chosen the name of Soeur Amelie. Do not let her real name be known. All is well for you here. His majesty, despite your enemies, has confidence in you. My respects to you and all good wishes for your success and prosperity. ANNE DE FRONTENAC. No word 3 of love were there, yet thc governor's eyes lingered with pleasure on the signature. She still was proud to use his name. He glanced at Ma dame Bourdon as if for further ex planation. "Mademoiselle was committed to my keeping before sailing, with strict or ders that she should be placed in your care. She refused to leave her cabin except at night throughout the voy age. She is somewhat paler than when she left France, but otherwise she is well. I have discharged my duty and will leave her future disposition to your excellency." And with a bow Madame Bourdon retired. Frontenac walked slowly over to the window near which the stranger stood, and approaching her said kind ly: "Come, ma chere, it seems that my wife has asked me to aid yon, which I shall gladly do. Will you not sit down that W3 may talk matters over?" And taking her hand, he led her with gen tle courtesy to a chair, and drawing his own near, sat down. The young girl thanked him in a low voice, and throw ing back her veil revealed her features for the first time to her companion. "Mon Dieu!" he exclaimed, as the freshness of her rich beauty became apparent. "I can well understand the alarm of mademoiselle." An hour they talked. lie strove to learn as much of her history as she cared to reveal to him, and endeavored by the fatherly tone and interest he displayed to reassure her of his kind ly thought and wish. Ho realized her helpless state and saw that she was unhappy, and as ho talked ho revolved in his own mind several plans for her future care. Then, as the subject per plexed him somewhat, he arose and paced thoughtfully tip and down. He could not think seriously of allowing her to he lost in a religious life. I> was necessary, therefore, to find some family In which to place her that would be congenial and tend to dissi pate her melancholy. Glancing out of a window in his perplexity, he saw the figure of a woman passing the square Id trout :if thi' Chateau. "The very CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1905. person," lie exclaimed, and calling to his servant, he bade him run and in form Madame Bi/.ard that he wished to speak with her. An arrangement wa3 soon made. Madame Bizard was rejoiced at. be ing thrown into such intimacy with the daughter of a gentleman. No ex planation was given of Renee's pres ence in Quebec; that she was a ward liPn imk U *I MM p UJJ " DREAMS OF HOME. of the governor was sufficient. The girl herself was glad to reach the refuge of a new feminine friend. Heat. Bizard was quartered in a hott:« n r, ar the Chateau, convenient lor Renee to make frequent calls upon her guar dian. who soon became very much at tached to her. She wa.l to him the closest link to that world of fashion and gayety from which his official po sition exiled him. It seemed a com fort to her also to talk with him of mademoiselle, her family, and her child-life in Poifiu. Even his convei sation, which '.ouched mainly 011 per sons whose names she had merely heard, was pleasant to her ears. Shrinking i/om the admiring glances of those she met, she went out but lit tle, save for a stroll with Madame Bi zard at dusk, or a brisk morning walk alone before the sleepy city was awake. ThrcAn thus upon her own resources inn great measure, she passed most of her time in-doors, playing on her l'.ie, embroidering an altar cloth or reading and re-reading the scanty store of books Frontenac lent her. Madame Bizard often sat and talked, retailing to her all the gossip and events of the town. She dared not speak ill of the Conite, but her predi lection for Duchesneau and his parti sans led her to vent her feelings in acrimonious aspersions on all who were allied with the governor. Best of all, Renee liked to question her friend about the strange vast land sh2 had come to; Its history and its peo ple; the tales of adventures in its wilds; the rugged life of its pioneers; tlie martyrdoms of its missionaries. And as she listened, her heart glowed within her and she wished that she too were a man and might set forth to hew a way through the great un known that civilization might follow; or yet again the hazy, half-formed plan suggested itself to her mind that even a woman's weak hands through her gentle ministration in hours of sickness and plague might win a path to heathen hearts for the glorious truths of her religion. Madame Bizard had several times touched upon La Salle's exploring ex peditions but had spoken of no mem ber of It other than its leader. Him she denounced as a thief, a liar, and a swindler. Renee listened eargerly, not daring to question her companion closely, fearing lest the sound of the beating of her heart would be over heard; and bent her face low over her work or turned away her head that the glow on her cheek might not disclose the fact that her interest in the sub ject was other than that of a stranger. Finally, one day she essayed to make some inquiry as to the p&rsonnel of the party. Madame Bizard, whose fund of local gossip was low at the mo ment, quickly branched off into a full description of the chief members of the enterprise. "There was one young man, ma chere," she said, "who deserves to be eaten by the savages. His name is Henri de Tonti, and he occupies a po sition next to that of the leader. Had he remained in Quebec I should have considered it my duty to warn you of him, for a more dangerous person for a young girl to meet. I cannot imagine. He behaved scandalously hwc, coquet ting with all the women of the place. It is a pity; they say he has a wife and child he abandoned in Paris. We women are so weak that it would be small wonder if some of us were to believe the honeyed words spoken by one who, I will admit, is so handsome, gallant, and possessed of so winning a manner." Rente, pale and agitated, made her r.eehle fly faster as her companion rat tled on. She dreaded what the woman would say next, yet longed for her to proceed. "He will never come back here, I know," continued Madame Bizard, "for lie ought to know that my husband would shoot him down the Instant he arrived. Yc3," she went on, as she saw lfenee give a start, "he even tried his wiles on mo, the miscreant! Of course, one cannot blame a man for desiring lo be friendly, and for seek ing the acquaintance of a woman of my position, who, although I repeat It my* If, is said to be at least pas sably good-looking. Ho should, how ever, have paid attention to the ordi nary proprieties of civilized people, and should not have so outraged my feelings of wifely honor and womanly piide bv actually making love to me, and tie- nluht before his departure urg ing in ? to fii e with him lo the wilder ness." An exclamation from Renee inter rupted her, and she saw that the girl had pricked her finger with her needle and stained the fabric she was working with a drop of blood. "There is a man,"the woman con tinued, much to Rrnec's relief, "who has all of his virtues and none of his faults, who came on the same shin with you; I wonder you did not see him. He is called 'le Comte,' and is staying with the intendant. I have met him several times when at the palace and have seen him in the distance while walking. I want, you to meet him. M. le Gouverncur will not ob ject to your receiving a friend of the intendant. I have in fact invited him to call, and, mon Dieu!" she cried with a blush of pleasure as she glanced out of the window, "here he is coming to the house this moment." Renee looked in the direction pointed out to her and saw the figure of a young man approaching. Ho lifted up his face toward the window; the sunlight smote it. Renee uttering a cry ol ter ror fell back in a swoon. She had recognized the Comte de Miron. CHAPTER XVI. RELATES THE EVENTS THROUGH WHICH A BIRD IN THE HAND Bfc- CA.ME TWO IN THE BUSH. Week after week followed with dreams of home, of green fields and trees and brooks, interspersed with glimpses of sad, patient, sympathetic faces of nuns and the rustling of their holy garments, which seemed like the sound of angels' wings, and Renee awakened to a realization that the former were but dreams and the rest ful assurance that the latter were al ways near to - comfort and protect her. Home spoke of ship fever contracted on the voyage during which two mem bers of the crew had died, notwith standing ihe fact that she had been ashore a full month before falling ill. Others shook their heads and whis pered something about a strange dis ease, lately found among the Indians, that seized upon the mind as well as the body. All agreed that it would need every effort to strengthen the weakened frame and renew ihe brain that seemed to rally most tardily. In reality it was the double blow of tho news of her lover's unfaithfulness, and the sight of the man she feared and whom she believed to be dead, coming as it did after the fatigue of her long voyage and close confinement of her stuffy cabin, that proved too great a shock to the nervous system of the young girl. [To Be Continued.] Every Little Help*. The Hon. Michael J. Murray of Bos ton tells an amusing story at the ex pense of President Charles W. Eliot of Harvard. One day a graduate of the Harvard medical school met the presi dent on the street for the first time since his graduation. While in col lege he became well acquainted with President Eliot, and the latter readily recalled his name ftpon the chance meeting. "I have something to say to you, President Eliot," remarked the gradu ate. "Yesterday I made a will, and after I had disposed of all my worldly goods I had inserted in the will anoth er clause. By that clause I left my brain to the Harvard medical school." "Well," was the answer, "I thank you." Then without meaning any sar casm. the president continued: "Every little helps."—Boston Herald.

With the openinz of the line across southern Utah ami southwest Nevada, known as the San Pedro- Route, a new country has been opened, which iu area is large enough for a good sized empire, the natural resources of which are prac tically untouched. This region has until now been without railway facilities, and the laws of trade •ml transportation are such that rapid development is now assured. The Tonopah and Goldfield mining camps are to be reached by branch lines, and there is a strong possi bility that other mineral districts will be discovered and developed as a result of this new enterprise. The facilities with which Southern California and this newly opened portion of Nevada can ba reached in future are indicated by the announcement from the passenger department of the Chicago & North-Western U'y that a daily service of through Pullman tourist sleeping cars via this route is to be inaugurated be tween Chicago aud I.os Angeles in a few days, which will doubtless lead to a large influx of people looking for oppor tunities to establish themselves in this new country, whero homes are cheap, work is plentiful, and men of vim ami grit are in demand—something unknown in the densely populated cities of the east. There is some beautiful scenery along the new route, particularly in what is known as Rainbow Canon; and the cit rus fruit region of Southern California is reached near San Bernardino, the road leading from that point through River side and Pomona, and other towns in one of ths greatest orange growing dis tricts in the world. It is expected that with the opening of the Southern California tourist season this fall, a large amount of travel will be handled via thiH route, for the manage ment of the new road, fully alive to modern travel requirements, fiave putin effect a very handsome service of modern vestibule trains, with high class dining car service and other travel comforts, which connect at Salt Lake and Ogdan with through service from the East, und give a new and interesting route by which lirst class tourist travel can reach the sunshine and flowers of this New World Riviera.

Pinklam's Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not be cause it is a stimulant, not because it is a pUliative, but simply because it is the jaost wonderful tonic and recon structor ever discovered to act directly upon the generative organs, positively curing disease and restoring health aad vigor. Marvelous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians who have recognized the virtue of Lydia E.

If physicians daTed to be frank and open, hundreds of them would acknowl edge that they constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound in severe cases of female ills, as they know by experience it can be re lied upon to effect a cure. The follow ing letter proves it. Dr. S. C. Brigham, of 4 Brigliam Park, Fitchburg, Mass., writes : " It gives mo great pleasure to saj* that I have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound very efficacious, and often pre sent >e it in my practice for female difficulties. "My oldest daughter found it very benefi cial for uterine troublesome time ago, and my youngest daughter is now taking it for a fe male weakness, and is surely gaining in health and strength. " I freely advocate it as a most reliable spe cific in all diseases to which women are sub ject, aud give it honest endorsement." Women who are troubled with pain ful or irregular menstruation, bloating (or flatulence), leueorrhoea, falling, in flammation or ulceration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that bearing-down feeling, dizziness, faintness, indiges tion nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the serious consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta ble Compound, and then write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., for further free advice. No living person has had the benefit of a wider experience in treating female ills. She lias guided thousands to health. Every suffering woman should ask for and follow her advice if she wants to be strong and well.

This Makes Monday Bright and Fair There is an old saying that man works from Sun to Sun but woman's work is never done. This idea was well enough perhaps, in the year 1714 when it v/as first made public, but if woman's work is never done now it is generally her own fault. Take for instance, the matter of washing clothes —there is no longer any reason to dread "wash day" or to call it "blue Monday" unless you persist in scrubbing your clothes on a washboard over a steaming tub of hot, dirty water and follow all the rest of the old fashioned nonsense the same as they used to do the fam ily washing when Noah wa3 a small g boy. Of course if you do yeur work In that out-of-date kind of way, there won't bs any rest for you here and not much comfort in life either, because you will always be busy. Now, between ourselves, in the matter of washing clothes—what's the use of making a drudge of your self when with a Majestic Rotary Washing Machine, which costs little and lasts long, you can almost make a pastime of what used to bathe B darkest day in the week.
