He tatd this quite unconcerned, and
not a bit ready to argue the point out
with me. It was all very well tor him
to glide over it In that easy way. but
what I wanted to know waa where had
Michel Grey first heard talk about us?
That the gossip was new to him was
evident from the fact that he played
billiards with my master the very first
night he came to Paris. What chatter
he had heard was heard between sup
per that evening and breakfast two
days altar. And this was what troubled
WHat Drag Be Drank Mo Msa Could Say.
eves In the face of Sir Nicolas' tale
about him taking drugs and forgetting.
"There's danger moving," I thought,
"and if you're married within the
month, Nicky, I'm a Chinaman."
This Is how the thing looked to me,
then and for days after. While, on
the one hand, 'Michel Grey talked no
more, either to me or to Sir Nicolas,
of his suspicions, on the one hand. I
could see that he would have no truck
with us, and was doing his best to
make his master think as he did. That
he did not succeed in this Is to be set
down to many things, but above all
to the fact that for days together he
would hang about the hotel like a man
without a mind; and was, as all the
world oould see, tottering fast to his
grave. What drug he drank or where
he learned the habit, no man could
say, but a more pitiable spectacle than
he made, looking for all the world like
a blind thing come out of a coffin,
I hope never to see. Luckily for us,
there was no affection lost- between
him and Miss Dora. Talk as he might,
the day was rare when she did not
plan some excursion with my master.
They spent hours together out at Fon
talnebleau or Versailles were half
their leisure time at the picture gal
leries, the other half at the cafes and
theaters. I saw them walking arm In
arm in the gardens, I saw him kiss
her when she went to her painting in
the morning, I saw him kiss her when
she came home again to dejeuner, and
I began to think that after all he was
right and I was wrong. Then, all of a
sudden, the trouble came, and we woke
up from our dream like men roused by
artillery fire.
Michel Orey had disappeared. For
the first time since we had been at the
hotel, he had changed words with my
master over the dinner table. It did
not come to blows, but the hands of the
people around alone kept the two men
apart, and Sir Nicolas was heard by
twenty folks to say that he'd beat the
life out of the American with his hunt
ing crop. That night and the next
Michel Orey did not sleep in his bed at
the 'Hotel de Lille. At 10 o'clock two
mornings later his sister Dora was
knocking at my master's door, wanting
to know what he had done with him.
I can see her now, wfth her pretty
hair streaming down her back and her
face that flushed that she might have
been rubbing her cheeks with a glove.
Many women would have thought noth
ing of a man going off like that; but
the quarrel stuck in her head, I sup
pose, and ahe was as scared as a habblt.
When Sir Nicolas came out to her, she
waa no longer gentle with him as she
had been before this, but stamped her
foot and spoke angry, with quick, bit
ing words. .
"Wetl," she cried, "where Is he? Tou
know, of course?"
"As God Is my witness, I know noth
ing' said he.
"But yeu -were with him last you
were the laat to speak to him."
"Indeed, and I was; and when he'd
done with me, he went straight to his
bedroom. ..Dora, it's not lies that I'd
tellyou at such a time."
"Then where Is he, what has hap
pened to him, what shall I tell my fa
ther? Ob, they love him at home. in
deed they do."

6he began to cry at this, and my mas
ter took her hand.
"You poor little thing." said he, draw
ing her head down upon his shoulder.
"Would I harm him. whatever he was
and your brother, too? Don't ye see,
child, that he's Just gone off in a bit of
a huff, and will be back before your
tears are dry. Ye'll be the first to
laugh when he walks In here."
"He la not the man to do that," said
she, though she was no longer angry;
"I am sure of it. I dreamed of him all
night. He Is dead, Nicolas."
Now what should Sir 'Nicolas do
when she said this but give her a great
kiss, and burst out laughing.
"Deud!" said he. "then I'm thinking
we should get ready for the wakinx.
and ask htm to crack the first bottle.
Bedad! he's as dead as I am, little wo
man, and don't you think any such
thing. Whatever put that into your
head?"
"I could not tell you." saya she. "We
do not think these things, we know
them." -
At this he set off laughing again,
and did his best to cheer her up
though it was poor work he made of It
at the best. 'By and by.- when he had
seen a nice little breakfast sent up to
her rooms, he came to me, and I knew
then that he took it worse than I had
thought he would.
"Well," says he. "the fool's gone
right enough. There's no word or sign
yet. I'll begin to tbink by and by that
harm's come to him."
"In that case, sir," said I. "it's a
pity that what was said two nights ago
couldn't wait."
"How do you mean?" he asked.
"Why It's no good disguising it
you threatened to murder him."
"Good God! Would they think
that?"
"There's some that might,"
He stood stock still when I had said
this, and his face was very white.
"It's luck to make one gnash the
teeth." said he. presently. "I'd have
married her within the week."
"There's no reason why you
shouldn't now, sir," said I, "always
supposing that It's well with him. But
there are things to do."
"You think so?"
"Certainly; and if It was me con
cerned I'd be up at the police station
before the clock struck again."
"Do you believe they would find
Mm?"
"They might, or they might not; but
It would be cover for you."
"I'll do that," said he, shortly. "Is
there- anything else?"
"One tiring," said I. "This young
fellow has a father In America. If
three days pass and we hear nothing
of him send a cable out to Boston, and
advise that a reward be offered a big
one, say ten thousand ' dollars. Mean
while, offer a reward of two thousand
francs yourself."
"But I'd have to pay. What' the
sense in that?"
"Sir, said I, "if Mr. Grey, of Boston,
will offer a reward of ten thousand
dollars for the recovery of his son,
there is one man who will find him."
"And who is that, pray?"
"Myself."
He looked at me with blank amaace
ment. Then he said, quite simple:
"Ye're a clever man. I'd be sorry for
the day when we parted."
"B1 we must part, sir," said I.
" 'TIs no time for nonsense, sure,"
said he.
"And It's no nonsense I mean sir. If
I'm to find this man and to claim this
reward, the work must be done away
from here."
"Where would It be done, then?"
"From the house In the Rue Dupln,
where we lived two years ago."
He thought over It a little while, and
then he said:
"It's the devil of a head ye've got
How did you come to think of It?"
"Common sense taught me." said I.
"There's many a worse friend, sir."
A week after this talk I left the Hotel
de Lille and took a lodging In a little
They Spent Honrs Together. .
house In the Rue Dupln. It was the
first time In my life that ever I'd set
to work to hunt a man, and I knew at
the beginning of it that I had a stiff
Job before me.' Notwithstanding the
light way we had taken iMlchel Grey's
disappearance, seven days had passed
and no living soul had heard a word of
him. Ho had gone like a light in a
wind, and had left neither letter nor
message. While some were bold enough
to say that Nicolas Steele could have
told the tale, the many were deceived
by the pains my master took to trace
the missing man. 'None the less. It was
not hidden from me that the police
were watching him, and that any min
ute he might be face to face with the
greatest peril of his life.
'My object In moving from the hotel
to the Rue Dupln waa a simple one.
Jonathan Grey, the father of the miss
ing man, had walked Into the trap we
had set. for him like a child Into a
sweetstuff-shop His answer to his
daughter's cable was Immediate.
"Offer the reward." he said, and
we had offered, it. That ' is to say,
we had printed 'a thousand bills and
bad burned them.
"Once get those bills about Paris,"
said I to Sir Nicolas, "and your man's
here in a couple of hours. That don't
suit us when $10,000 are at stake not
by a long way. If Michel Grey is to be
found at all, rm.golng to find him, and
to bank half the reward in my name.
The other half Is yours by every right"
"I've nothing to say against that,"
exclaimed he; "It's what I waa think
ing of myself. But ye won't tell me
who's to claim the money, and all the
world knowing that you're my servant.
Ye don't forget that ye're dealing with
Tenkeear'
aI forget nothing, air,'' said I. "and
that' what takes me to the Rue Dupln.
The man who will claim the reward is
my friend. Jim Paacoo . ,
"What! Jim Pascoe. the tout?"
"No other. If there's anything In
Paris that's new to him I should be
glad to hear of it. He'll do the Job for
a hundred pounds, and gladly."
"Ye don't fear to trust him?"
"Fear," I replied, "why, 1 know
enough about Jim Pascoe to -buy a
doxen men."
This was a true word, and half an
hour after It was spoken I was seated
with Jim In the Utile bit of a cabin In
the Rue Dupln, where I told him the
tale. Jim was a man who got his liv
ing the best way he could, but chiefly
at Auteaell and Longchamps, and In
being father-in-law to the F.ngltsh
mugs who want to "do" 'Paris. If any
one could say what had become of
Michel Grey he was the man; and I'd
hardly got the words out of my lips
when he jumped down my throat with
his theory.
"Bigg," says he. "your man's in a
drug-den and what's more, he's in a
private drug-den. It's a wonder his
people haven't had any note for money
before this that- Is, if Grey hasn't a
banking account of his own In Paris."
"I don't follow you there," says I.
"What do you mean by a private drag
den?" "Why, a place where they dose 'em
and bleed 'em at the same time. Such
shops are cheap this way. They trap a
man with cash, and make It pleasant
for him so long as his money lams, then
they knock him on the head, or leave
him to sleep it off In the gutter. You
couldn't have named a worse Job. I
doubt that you'll ever set eyes on Grey
again. If you live to be a hundred."
That was a fncer. I'd thought all'
along Mat the American was laid by
the heels In some opium-shon, but that
we should have any difficulty in get
ting him out was a fact Oliat never en
tered my head.

In the course of an Instructive article
on Railroad Securities as Investments,
the Insurance Advocate of last week
paid a high tribute ito the management
of the 'New York, Ontario and Western
railway. Among other things it said:
The New York, Ontario and Western,
like many another enterprise, has had
Its period of titandlng still. Almost to
this day It Is ntanding still aa no tlhe
mileage It operates, but that Is one
thing ithat goes down M Its credit. An
other is tha't on tihia comparatively
stationary mileage, earnings have ln
creaneKi by leaps and bounds ami this
haa 'been owing to the push nnd enter
prise of the road's officials. Here Is the
point we wish to emphasize. To 1Hus
trate: In 1SS7 the company owned 319
miles of road; it leased 44 miles and Ihad
trackage over 53 miles more. Practi
cally these figures had stood wMhoui
alteration for many years ait thait time,
and tihe company's income had also
been subjectt to only slight fluctuations.
It now owns no more mileage, nor has
it any addition to Its trackage TlgWia
All the Increase In the lcngHh of road
operated Is some fifty-four miles of
branch road extending -iti'to he 'anthra
cite coal fields. The result of the ener
getlo management spoken of may be
summarized as follows the surplus (us
will be seen) showing an Increaae of
G50 per cent.;

The gross earnings Increased from
$1,617,604 in 1887 to $3,842,119 in 1894. In
dicating a gain of 82,224,446 or 137 per
cent. In the same period profits rose
from $290,019 to $1,109,579, the gain being
equal ,to $819,560 or 280 per cent. This
is something to take note or. Here Is
the substantial progress from $4,048
earned an every mile of road in 1887 to
$8,or.9 earned per mile In 1894, while net
results show themselves In an Increase
from $768 per mile to $2,327 per mile. It
must not be supposed that all of this
new business and Increased receipts has
come without being hunted up. Ver
wide-awake men, with J. E. Ch'llds. ithe
general manager, at ithelr head, have
had to cover the territory the road
reaches and make business. Wltere
there were the smallest signs of growth
the plant had to be fostered. In some
sections, neelng the need for summer
homes, 'the company offered to carry
and actually did carry building ma
terials free. The sprat caught the
mackerel, of course. 'Many points were
largely built up by tWls means, and the
Income which the Ontario and Western
derives from the traffic rttanreJ pays foi
the stroke of enterprise and the work
done gratis beforehand. The road's
coal traffic has been enormously en
larged. 'while in another direction in
the buslnerd of hauling mfk from 1he
up-ntate farms to centres of distribu

IN 4 TO 10 DAYS
OR MONEY REFUNDED.
All the Tobacco You Want Till
Your "Craving" Is Gone.
Use
NARCOTI-CTJRE is the only rcmody in the world tliat acts
directly on the nerves and drives the nicotine from the system
tn from four to ten day. It leaves the patient iu better health
than before taking, and is warranted free from any injurious
ingredients.
NARCOTT CURE is popular because it allows the patient
to use all the tobacco he wants while under treatment, or until
the "craving" and "hankering" are goue. It is then no sacri
fice to throw away tobacco forever.
NARCOTI-CURE is Bold at the uniform price of $5.00 a
bottle and one bottle cures.
Money refunded if a cure is not effected when takon accord
ing to directions.
