"Theso ore only a few articles of mon

each one complete."
By ma sic. na It seemed, there was a
wardrobe full of fineries provided for my
Use. Tho man displayed them: In close
trousers and coats with short fronts, or
knee breeches and lone tails; costumes,
he said, for the street, for drlvlnrr, rldtnfr,
traveling, for evening, and for morning;
and one white satin court dress. At the
marqula' order he had laid out ono for rt
ball. Of my old clothes not a piece was
to be seen.
The miracle was that what he put upon
me fitted me. I became transformed like
my servant and my secretary, and stood
astonished at the result.

Hieald tho Marquis du Plessy when
the lackey ushered ma Into the garden.
It was a nest of amber at that time of
unset, and he waited for me at a table
laid for supper, under a flat canopy of
trees which had their tops trained and
woven Into a mat.
I took his hand to kiss, but ho rose up
nd nibenltlcently placed me In a chair
opposite hlnuolf,
"Vatit benefits are heavy, monsieur," I
aid "How shall I acknowledge them?"
"Yoii owe mo nothing at all," ho an

"But you do not know anything about

been acquainted with yourself."
"Yet I am not sure of deserving the

MARY HARTWELL CATHERWOOD
I felt n clumsy giant wnllc ho Ituttcrcd
around my head, smiling, mocking,
thrusting his pathos to tho quick.
"My dear boy, I do not say that I bc
llovo In you; r do not obso-ve etiquette
with you. But I nm going to tell you a
llttlo story about tho Tullerles. You have
never seen tho palace of the Tullerles?"
I Bald I had not.
"It has bten restored for the use of
theso Bonapartes. When I say these
Honapartes, Lnznrre. I am not speaking
ngntnst tho Empire. The Empire gnvo
mo back my estates, I was not one ot
tho stringent emigres. My estates are
mine, whoever rules In France. You may
consider mo a betwlxt-and-bctwcener.
Do so. My dear boy, I nm, My heart Is
with my dead king. My cnrcnBs Is very
comfortable, both In inrls and on my
ancestral lands. Napoleon likes mo as
an ornament to his bourgeois court. 1
keep my opinion of htm to myself. Do
you like garlic, my boy?"
I told htm I was not addicted to thn
ueo of It.
"Garlic Is divine. God gave It to man.
A hint of It in the appropriate dish
maked life endurable. I carry a piece
In a gold box at the bottom of my vest
pocket, that I may occasionally tako It
out and experience a sense of gratltudo
for dlvlno benefits."
Ho took out his pet lump, rubbed It on
the outsldo of his wlno bottle, poured out
a Blassful and drank It, smiling adorably
at me In ecstasy!
"Wo wero speaking of tho Tullerles.
You should have seen the place when It
wns sacked after the flight of the royal
family. No, you Bhould not have seen It!
1 nm glad you were gone. Mirrors were
shattered, and lusters, vases, china, gold
candlesticks, rolled about and were
trampled on the floor. The paintings
were stabbed with pikes; tables, screens,
gilt stools, chairs crushed, and carpets
cut to pieces; garments of nil kinds
strewn and torn; all that was not carried
oft by pillagers being thus destroyed. It
wns yet a horrible sight days after tho
mob had done Its work, and slaughtered
bodies of guards had been carried away,
and commissioners with their clerks and ,
nslstanta began to restore order."
"Did you see the Tullerles at that time,
monsieur?"
"I did. I put on tho clothes of one or
my peasants, slumped In Jacquot's
wooden shoes, nnd kept my mouth open
as well as I could for the dust. Tho
fantastic was yet In my blood. Exile
takes that out of everybody except
your royal uncle of Provonce. But I
knew In my heart what I would help do
with thnt mob, if our turn ever came
again.
Ills dark eyes rested on the red wine
ax on a pool of blood.
"Sick of the ruin, I leaned out to look
In the garden, from a. window In the
queen's own apartment. I stepped on J.
shelf, which appeared fixed under the win
dow; but It moved, and I found that It
could be pushed on grooves Into the wall.
There was a cavity made to hold It. It
had concealed two armchairs placed op
posite each other, so runnlngly that their
paneled sides looked a part of the thick
wall. I sat down In one ot them, and
though the cushion was stiff, I felt some
thing hard under It."
Monsieur du Plessy glanced around In
every direction to Batlsfy himself that no
ears lurked within hearing,
"Eh, blenl Under the cushion I found
the queen's Jewel easel Diamonds bng.t
of gold coin a halt circlet of gemyj
xlnce the great necklace wns lost, such
an array had not seen the light In France.
Tho value must be far above a million
francs.
The marquis fixed his eyes on me and
said;
"What should I have done with It,
Lazarre?"
"It belonged to the royal family," I
answered.
"But everything which belonged to the
roynl family had been confiscated to lha
Htate. I had Just seen the belongings ot
tne royal family trampled as by cattle.
First one tyrant and then another rose
up to tell us what we should do, to bat
ten himself off the wretched common
wealth, and then to go to the guillotine
before his successor. As a good citizen,
I should have turned these Jewels and
stones and eolnB over to the State. But
I was acting the part of Jacquot, and an
nn honest person I whipped them under
my blouse and carried them away, m
my straits of exile I never decreased
them. And you may tako inventory of
your property and claim It when wo rise
from the table."
My heart come up In my Ihroat. I
reached across and caught his hands,
"You believe In me you believe In me!"
"Do I observe any etiquette with you,
Lazarre? Thl la the second time I have
brought the fact to your notice. I par
ticularly, wish you to note that I do not
observe any etiquette with you."
