GO ON WITH THE STORY.
It was opened by a tall, slender,
gracefully-proprotioned man of per-
haps forty.
In the crook of his left arm he car-
ried a fencing mask. His keen glance
played over Andre -Louis from head
to foot.
"Monsieur?" he inquired, politely.
It was clear that he mistook Andre
Louis' quality, for despite bis sadly
reduced fortunes, his exterior was
irreproachable.
"You have a notice below, mon-
sieur," he said.
"You are come in regard to that?"
Andre -Louis shrugged and half
smiled- "One must live," said he.
"But come in. Take off your coat,"
M. de Arnie said, "and let us see what
you can do. Nature, at least, design-
ed you for a swordsman. You are
light, active, and supple, with a good
length of arm, and you seem intelli-
gent. I may teach you enough for my
purpose, which is that you should give
the elements of the art to new pupils.
tele) that ellask and foil, and come
over here."
IIe led him to the end of the room,
where the bare floor was scored with
idle, of chalk to guide the beginner
n the management of his feet.
At the end of a ten -minutes' bout,
M. des Amis offered him the situation,
and explained it. In addition to im-
parting the rudiments of the art to
beginners, he was to brush out the
fencing -room every morning, peep the
foils furbished, assist the gentlemen
who came for lessons to dress and
undress, and make himself gcereeily
useful. His wages for the preselt1
were to be forty livres a month.
The position had its humiliations.
But, if Andre -Louis would hope to
dine, he must begin by eating his
pride as an hors d'oeuvre.
"And so," he said, controlling a
grimace, "the robe yields not only to
the sword, but to the broom as welL
Be it so,"
It is characteristic of him that,
having made that choice, he should
have thrown himself into the work
with enthusiasm.
Every morning before the opening
of the academy, the master would
fence for half an hour with his new
assistant. Under this really excel -

"To the master be the glory," said
Andre -Louis, des Amis had
His relations with M.
meanwhile become of the friendliest,
and he was now beginning to receive
from him other pupils than mere be-
ginners. M. des ',semis, a chivalrous,
open -handled fellow, rewarded his zeal
by increasing his wages to four louis
a month.
CHAPTERIII.
The ferment of Paris which, dur-
ing the two following days, resembled
an armed camp -rather than a city,
delayed the burial of Bertrand des.
Aria until the Wednesday of that
eventful week. Andre -Louis succeed-
ed to the fending-echool in which he
was himself so well established as an
instructor.
And so, one fine day in early Aug-
ust, he received a visit from Le
Chapelier. ••
"I have news for you, Andre. Your
godfather is at lAgudon. There have,
been fresh disturbances in Brittany."
Not until Sunday was Andre -Louis
able to satisfy a wish' which the im-
patience of the intervening days had
converted into a yearning. Dressed
with more than ordinary care, his
head elegantly coiffed—Andre-Louis
mounted his hired carriage, and drove
out to Meudbn.
It was into the presence of a peev-
ish and rather somnolent M. de Ker-
cadiou that Andre -Louis was ushered.
Ho was unannounced, as had ever
been the custom at Gavriilmc.
"What de you want here?" growled
M, de Kercadfioue.
"No more than to kiss your hand,
monsieur my godfather," said Andre -
Louis, submissively, bowing his sleek
black head.
"You can't: You'll never make me
understand how you carne to render
yourself so odiously notorious in Brit-
tany."
"Ah, not odiously, monsieur!"
"Certainly, odiously.:It is said even
'that you were Ornnes Omnibus, though
that I cannot, will not believe."
"Yet it is true."
M. de Kercadiou choked. "And you

SHE WAS COMING TOWARD HIM NOW WITH OUTSTRETCH-
ED HANDS.
June when the news of Necker's dis-
missal spread, carrying with it dis-
may and fury.
He beheld a slight young man with
a pock -marked face leap to a table
outside the Cafe de Foy, a drawn
sword in his hand, crying, 'To arms!"
And then upon the silence of astonish-
men
stonishmen that cry imposed, this young man
poured a flood of inflammatory elo-
quence.
Enthusiasm swept the crowd, a
motley crowd made up of men and
women of every class, from vagabond
to nobleman, from harlot to lady of
fashion.
Andre -Louis looked on, and grew
afraid. This crowd, he felt, must be
restraisreil. That hot-blooded , irre-
sponsible stutterer would have the
town in a blaze by night, unless some-
thing were done. The young man,
i Camille Desmoulins, later to become
I famous, leapt down from his table
still waving his sword, still shouting,
"To arms! Follow me!" Andre -Louis
advanced to occupy ' the improvised
rostrum, and came suddenly face to
face with a tall man beautifully
dressed.
Thus face to face, each looking into
the eyes of the other, Then Andre -
Louis laughed.
"That fellow, too, has a very dan-.
, gerous gift of eloquence, M. le Mar-
quis," he said.
"Gallows -bird!" he was answered.
"I shall tell the Lieutenant -General
that you are to be found in Paris."
"My God, cant" °hied Andre -Louis.
"Will you talk like that of Lieutenant -
Generals when Paris itself is likely
to tumble about your ears or take fire
under your feet?"

The tone argued an irrevocable de-

but with a queer pain at his heart,
Andre -Louis heard that dismissed.
And then another voice, a crisp, boy-
ish voice, cut in.
"Uncle!" it cried, a world of in-
dignation and -surprise in its patch,
and then: "Andre!" And this time a
note almost of gladness, certainly of
welcome, was blended with the sur-
prise that still remained.
