BEGIN HERE TO -DAY.
When the peasant Mabey was shot
dead when poaching on the domain of
the great noble -of Brittany, the
Marquis de La Tour D'Azyr, a
shudder of horror went through the
sensitive spirit of
Philippe De Vilmorin; a young di-
vinity student, who was a believer in
the democratic. doctrines which under-
lay the French Revolution. Philippe's
determination to secure justice meets
with 'little encouragement from his
friend
Andre -Louis Moreau, a young and
brilliant lawyer, who is popularly be-
lieved to be the son of
Quentin de Kercadiou, Lord of GAv-
rillae. Andre -Louis looks with cynic-
ism on the new political doctrines but
agrees to accompany Philippe and put
the ease before de Kercadiou. The
Marquis was closeted with the Lord of
Gavrillac when they arrived. Philippe
goes to join the two nobles and Andre -
Louis talks to the young and beautiful
Aline de Kercadiou. He is horrified
when the girl tells him that the Mar-
quis has come to ask her uncle for her
hand in marriage.
GO ON WITH THE STORY.
Aline drew hack from Andre -Louis
a little, with a frown and an upward
tilt of her chin. "It surprises you?"
"It disgusts me," said he, bluntly.
"In fact, I don't believe it."
For a moment she put aside her
visible annoyance to remove his
doubts. "I am quite serious, mon-
sieur. There came a formal letter to
my uncle this morning from M. de
La. Tour d'Azyr, announcing the visit
and object."
"An will it suit you to be dutiful
,cif you . uncle accepts this monstrous
proposal?"
"Monstrous'!" she bridled. "And
why monstrous, if you please?"
"For a .score of reasons," be an-
swered, irritably,
"Give meone," she challenged him.
"He is forty-five at least."
"But he looks no more than thirty.
He is very handsome the greatest
nobleman in Brittany. He will make
me a great lady."
"God made you that, Aline."
"Come, that's better. Sometimes
you can almost be polite," And she
moved along the terrace. Andre -
Louis pacing beside her.
"I can be more than that to show
reason why you should not let this
beast befoul the beautiful thing that
God has made."
She frowned, and her lips tighten-
ed. "You are speaking of my future
husband," she reproved him.
"And is it so? It is settled, then?
Your uncle is to agree? You are to
be sold thus, lovelessly, into bond-
age to a .man you do not know. 1
had dreamed of better things for you,
Aline."
"You are indelicate," said she, and
though she frowhed her eyes
laughed. "My uncle will not consent
to more than allow my consent to
be sought. I am not to be bartered
like a turnip."
"You have been torturing me to
amuse yourself!" he cried. "Ah,
well, I forgive you out of my relief.".
"Again you go too fast, Cousin
Andre. I like the look of the gentle-
man. M. le Marquis does not look.

as if he were a dullard. It should
be interesting to be wooed by him.
It may be more interesting still to
I marry him, and I think, when all is
considered, that I shall probably—
' very
robably—`very probably—decide to do. so."
"God help you, Aline!" he groan-
ed.
"You ..arca insufferable!" She was
growing angry, as he saw by the
deepening frown, the heightened
color.
I "That is because I suffer. Oh,
Aline, little cousin, think well of
• that ...
!what • you doConsider e
"I consider, monsieur, that you
presume upon the kindness I have
always shown you. You abuse the
position of toleration in which you
stand. Who are you? What ate
you, that you should have the inso-
lence to take this tone with me?"
"My congratulations, mademoiselle,
upon the readiness with which you
begin to adapt yourself to the great
, role you ,are to play."
"Do you adapt yourself also, mon-
sieur," she retorted angrily, and
turned her shoulder to him.
"To be as the dust beneath the
haughty feet of Madame la Mar-
. guise. I hope I shall know my place
in future."
"The phrase arrested her. She
turned to him again, and he per-
ceived that her eyes, were shining
now suspiciously. In an instant the
amlockery in him was quenched in
contrition.
I "Lord, what a beast I am, Aline!"
he cried, as he advhneed. "Forgive
me if you can."
j • They eevere stave ding so;; confront-
iing each other a little breathlessly, a
little defiantly, when the others is-
sued from the porch.
First came the Marquis of La Tour
d'Azyr, Count of Solz, Knight of the
Orders of the Holy Ghost and Saint
I.Louis, and Brigadier in the armies
of the King. He was a tall, grace -
lel man, upright and soldierly of
carriage, with his bead disdainfully
set upon his shouldhers. He was
magnificently dressed in a full -skirt-
ed coat of mulberry velvet that was
laced with gold. His waistcoat, of
velvet, too, was of a golden apricot
color; his breeches and stockings
were of black silk, and his lac-
quered, red -heeled shoes were buckled
in diamonds. His powdered hair was
tied behind in a broad ribbon of wat-
ered silk; he carried a little three -
cornered hat under his arm, and , a
gold -hilted slender dress -sword hung
at his side.
He was immediately folowed by M.
de Kercadiou, in complete contrast.
On legs of the shortest, the Lord of
Gravillac carried .a body that at
forty-five was beginning to incline
to corpulence and an enormous head
containing an indifferent allotment of
intelligence.
After M. de Kercadiou came M.
de Vilmorin, very pale and self-con-
tained, with tight lips and an over-
cast brow.
To meet thew: there stepped from
the carrmge a very elegant young
gentleman, the Chevalier de (;ha-.
brillane, M. de La Tour d'Azyr's
cousin, who whilst awaiting his re-
turn had watched with considerable
interest --his own presence unsus-
pteted—the perambulations of A ndre-
Louis and mademoiselle.
Perceiving Aline, M. de La Tour
d'Azyr c!etaehed himself from the
others, and, lengthening; his stride,
came straight across the terrace to
her.
The Marquis took the hand that
mademoiselle extended to him, and,
bowing' over it, bore it to his lips.
"M demoiselle," he said, looking
into the blue depths of her eyes, that
niet his gaze smilingly and un-
troubled, "monsieur your uncle does
me the honor to permit that I pa;,'
Hwy homage to you. Will you, made-
moiselle,.da me the honor to receive
inn when I come to -morrow? I shell
have something of great importance
for your ear."
"O:t importance, M. le Marquis?
You almost' frighten me,"
"'That," sold he, '3s very far from
My design."
"You whet my curiosity, monsieur;

receive, you"

at this hour, then, I shall have the

CHAPTER III.
As they walked down the 'hill to •
gether, Andre -Louis was talkative.
He had chosen Woman as a subject
for his present discourse. .He
claimed—quite unjusfiiiably—to have
discovered Woman that morning;
and the things he had to say of the
sex were unflattering, and occasion-
ally almost gross.
Opposite the Breton Arme—the
inn and posting -house at the entrance
of the village of Gavrillace-Me de
Vilmorin interrupted his eomp•anion
just as he was soaring to the' dizziest
heights of caustic investive, and
Andre -Louis observed the carriage
of M, de La Tour d'Azyr standing
before the door of the hostelry.
"I have an appointment here with
M. le Marquis. He desires to hear
me further in the matter;" said
Philippe.
Into a room on the right, rendered
private to M. le Marquis for so long
as he should elect to honor it, the
young men were ushered by the host.
A fire of logs was burning brightly
at the room's far end, and by this
sat now M. de Iia Tour d'Azyr and
his cousin, the Chevalier de Chabril-
lane.
"You oblige me by your prompt
