I cannot afford to buy perfumes but like a delicate odor in linen articles." Reply.—Put a bag of powdered orris root in the lust rinsing water or the flowers of lavender or other sachet flow ers in a bag and boil with the starch.

Madame a ttscugnac, wm rut Sfebroh was nair-way flown tne stairs. The door was open, and on the porch he heard distinctly a thlrfl ten derly pathetic wall. • •••»•» That evening the Marquise d'Escll i gnac read aloud to her niece the news that the Count de Sabron was not com ing to dinner, lie was "absolutely des i olated" and had no words to express i his regret and disappointment. The pleasure of dining with them both, a ; pleasure to which he had looked for : ward for a fortnight, must be re nounced because he was obliged to sit up with a very sick friend, as there was no-one else to take his place. In expressing his undying devotion and his renewed excuses he put his homage at their feet and kissed their hands. The Marquise d'Esclignac, wearing another very beautiful dress, looked up at her niece, who was playing at the piano. "A very poor excuse, my dear Julia, and a very late one." "It sounds true, however. I believe him, don't you, ma tante?" "I do not," said the marquise em phatically. "A Frenchman of good education is not supposed to refuse a dinner Invitation an hour before he 1b expected. Nothing but a case of life and death would excuse it." "He says a 'very sick friend.'" "Nonsense," exclaimed the marquise. Miss Uedmond played a few bars of the tune Sabron had hummed and which more than once had soothed Pitchoune, and which, did she know, Sabron was actually humming at that moment. "I am rather disappointed," said the young girl, "but if we find it is a mat ter of life and death, ma tante, we will forgive him?" The Marquise d'Esclignac had in vited the Count de Sabron because she j had been asked to do so by his colo- I nel, who was an old and valued friend I She had other plans for her niec. "I feel, my dear,' she answered her ! now, "quite safe in promising that if It Is a question of life and death we shall forgive him. I shall see his colonel tomorrow and ask him pointblank." | Miss Redmond rose from the piano and came over to her aunt, for dinner had been announced. "Well, what do you think," she ; slipped her hand in her aunt's arm, "really, what do you think could be | the reason?' j "Please don't ask me," exclaimed j | the Marquise d'Esclignac impatient- : i ly. "The reasons for young men's ca | prices are sometimes just as well not inquired into." If Sabron, smoking In his bachelor ! quarters, lonely and disappointed, j watching with an extraordinary fideli | ty by his "sick friend," could have I seen the two Indies at their grand soli- j [ ttry dinner, his unfilled place between j them, he might have felt the picture charming enough to have added to his collection. CHAPTER IV. The Dog Pays. Pitchoune repaid what was given him. He did not think that by getting l well, reserving the right for the rest j of his life to a distinguished limp in his right leg, that he had done all that was expected of him. He developed an ecstatic devotion to the captain, impossible for any human heart ade quately to return. He followed Sab ron like a shadow and when he could { not follow him, took his place on a i chair in the window, there to sit, his i sharp profile against the light, his pointed ears forward, watching for the j uniform he knew and admired extrav agantly. Pitchoune was a thoroughbred, and every muscle and fiber showed it, | every hair and point asserted it, and he loved as only thoroughbreds can. >ou may say what you like about mon grel attachments, the thoroughbred in all case? reserves his brilliancy for i crises Sabron, who had only seen Miss Redmond twice and thought about her countless times, never quite forgave i his friend for the illness that kept him ! from the chateau. There was in Sab ron's mind, much as he loved Pit choune, the feeling that if he had gone i that night . . . There was never another invitation! ! "Voyons, mon cher," his colonel i had said to him kindly the next time 1 he met him, "v.-hat stupidity have you been guilty of at the Chateau d'Escll- i gnac?"

As no one was very sick according to my knowledge I told her so. She seemed triumphant and I saw at once that I had put you in the wrong." It would have been simple to have explained to the colonel, but Sabron, reticent and reserved, did not choose to do so. He made a very Insufficient excuse, and the colonel, aB well as the marquise, thought ill of him. He learned later, with chagrin, that his friends were gone from the Midi. Rooted to the spot himself by his du ties. he could not follow them. Mean while Pitchoune thrived, grew, cheered his loneliness, jumped over a stick, learned a trick or two from Brunet and a great many fascinating wiles and ways, no doubt Inherited from his moth He had a sense of humor truly -,h, a power of devotion that we designate as "canine," no doubt be cause no member of the human race has ever deserved it. CHAPTER V. The Golden Autumn. Sabron longed for a change with au tumn, when the falling leaves made the roads golden roundabout the Cha teau d'Esclignac. He thought he would like to go away. He rode his horse one day up to the property of the hard-hearted unforgiving lady and, finding the gate open, rode through the grounds up to the terrace. Seeipg; no one, he sat in his saddle looking over the golden country to the Rhone and the castle of the good King Rene, where the autumn mists were like ban ners floating from towers. There was a solitary beauty around the lovely place that spoke to the young officer with_a sweet melancholy. He fancied that Miss Redmond must often have looked out from one of the windows, and he wondered which one. The terrace was deserted and leaves from the vines strewed it with red and golden specters. Pitchoune raced after them, for the wind started them flying, and he rolled his tawny little body over and over in the rustliug leaves. Then a rabbit, which before the ar rival of Sabron had been sitting com fortably on the terrace stones, scut tled away like mad, and Pitchoune, somewhat hindered by his limp, tore after it. The deserted chateau, the fact that, there was nothing in his military life oeyona the routine to interest him now In Tarascon. made Sabron eagerly look forward to a change, and he waited for letters from the minister of war *hich would send him to a new post. The following day after his visit to the chateau ne took a walk. Pitchoune at his heels, and stood aside in the highroad to let a yellow motor pass him, but £he yellow motor at that mo ment drew up to the side ot the road while the chauffeur got out to adjust some portion of the mechanism Some one leaned trom the yellow motor win dow and Snhrnn came torward to speaK to tne iuarau*>se a mscngnac and another lady by her side. "How do you do, Monsieur? Do you remember us?" (Had he ever forgotten them?) He regretted so very much not having been able to dine with them in the spring. "And your sick friend?" asked Madame d'Esclignac keenly, "did he recover?" "Yes," said Sabron, and Miss Red mond, who leaned forward, smiled at 1 him and extended her pretty hand. Sabron opened the motor door. "What a darling dog!" Miss Red mond cried. "What a bewitching face ho has! He's an Irish terrier, isn't he?" Sabron called Pitchoune, who di verted his attention from the chauf feur to come and be hauled up by the collar and presented. Sabron shook off his reticence. "Let me make a confession," he said with a courteous bow. "This is my 'very sick friend.' Pitchoune was at the point of death the night of your Stood Aside to Let a Motor Pass Him. dinner and I was just leaving the house when I realized that the help less little chap could not weather the breeze without me. He had been run over by a bicycle and he needed some very special care." Miss Redmond's hand was on Pit chniino'a hand between hi* no In ted ears, sue looked sympathetic. sne looked amused. She smiled. "It was a question of 'life and death,' wasn't it?" she said eagerly to Sabron. "Really, it was just that," answered the young officer, not knowing how significant the words were to the two ladies. Then Madame d'Escllgnac knew that she was beaten and that she owed something and was ready to pay. The chauffeur got upon his seat and she asked suavely: "Won't you let us take you home, Monsieur Sabron?" He thanked them. He was walking and had not finished his exercise. "At all events," she pursued, "now that your excuse is no longer a good one, you will come' this week to din ner, wilL you not?" He would, of course, and watched the yellow motor drive away in the autumn sunlight, wishing rather less for the order from the minister of war to change his quarters than he had before. CHAPTER VI. t Ordered Away, He had received his letter from the minister of war. Like many things we wish for, set our hopes upon, when they come we find that we do not want them at any price. The order was un welcome. Sabron was to go to Al giers. Winter is never very ugly around Tarascon. Like a lovely bunch of fruit in the brightest corner of a happy vineyard, the Midi is sheltered from the rude experiences that the seasons know farther north. Nevertheless, rains and winds, sea-born and vig orous, had swept in and upon the lit tle town. The mistral came whis tling and Sabron, from his window, looked down on his little garden from which summer had entirely flown. Pit choune, by his side, looked down as well, but his expression, different from his master's, was ecstatic, for he saw sliding along the brick wall, a cat with which he was on the most excited terms. His body tense, his ears for ward, he gave a sharp series of barks and little soft growls, while his master tapped the window-pane to the tune of Miss Redmond's song.
