The oath, taken as he held in his arms the body of his dearest friend, Philippe De Vilmorin, sent Andre -Louis Moreau, young lawyer of Gavrillac, to Rennes and thence to Nantes where his fervish speeches roused to action the citizens who were chafing under the oppression of the nobility. Phillipe has been trick- ed into a duel and brutally murdered because the great Marquis de La Tour D'Azyr feared the "dangerous gift of eloquence" which the idealistic divinity student possessed. Andre -Louis swore to carry on the cause of his friend and revenge himself on the Marquis for Philippe's death and because the profligate noble had sued for the hand of the beautiful Aline De Kercadiou, niece of the gruff Lord of Gavrillac, who was popu- larly believed to be the father of Andre -Louis. .�. Returning from Nantes, Andre - Louis is met on the outskirts of Gav- rillac by Aline, who warns him that soldiers are waiting in the town to arrest him for sedition. He flees and takes refuge in a barn where he is awakened by the voices of two lovers, Climene and Leandre, who are panic- stricken at the impending discovery by the girl's father. GO ON WITH THE - STORY. "Calm, mademoiselle, calm!" the subtle friend was urging Climene. "Keep calm and trust to me. I prom- ise you that all shall be well." "0h!" cried M. Leandre, limply. "Say that you will, my friend, this is ruin—the end of all our hopes. Your wits will never extricate us from this. Never!" Through the gap strode now an enormous man with an inflamed moon face and a great nose, decently dress- ed, after the fashion of a solid bour- geois. There was no mistaking his anger, but the expression that it found was an amazement to Andre - Louis. "Leandre, you're an imbecile! Your words wouldn't convince a ploughboy!" He checked abruptly, startled. Andre -Louis, suddenly realizing what was afoot, and how duped he had been had loosed his laughter.

The sergeant wheeled his horse about, his troop wheeled with him. "Yon, monsieur!" he called over his shoulder. In a bound Andre -Louis was beside his stirrup, "We are in quest of a scoundrel named Andre - Louis Moreau, from Gavrillac, a fugi- tive from justice wanted for the gal- lows on a matter of sedition. You've seen nothing, I suppose, of a man whose movements seemed to, you sus - n„c ear "Indeed, we have,” said Andre - Louis, very boldly, his face eager with consciousness of the ability to oblige, "Yes, yes," the sergeant felt him- self hot upon the trail.

They were, thought Andre -Louis, as "WE ARE HERE IN QUTST OF A SCOUNDREL NAMED ANDRE- LOUIS MOREAU." it to be the property of the Marquis de La Tour d'Azyr." Having donned his boots, Andre - Louis came nimbly to the ground in his shirt -sleeves, his riding -coat over his arta. They followed him through that gap inthe hedge to the encampment on the common, There Andre -Louis perceived a young man of the com- pany performing his morning toilet at a bucket placed upon one of the wooden steps at the tail of the house on wheels. "I would beg leave to imitate that very excellent young gentleman be- fore I leave you," he said frankly to M. Pantaloon. "But, by all means. Rhodomont will provide what you require." So Andre -Louis once more removed his neckcloth and his coat, and rolled up the sleeves of his fine shirt, whilst Rhodomont procured him soap, a 1 towel, and presently a broken comb. This last Andre -Louis gratefully ac- cepted, and having presently washed' himself clean, stood, restoring order to his disheveled locks, He was standing thus, when his ears caught the sound of hoofs. He, looked over his shoulder carelessly, and then stood frozen, with uplifted I comb and loosened mouth. Away, across the common, on the road that bordered it, he beheld a party of seven I horsemen in the blue coats with red facings of the mareehausee. When a moment later the sergeant pulled up his horse alongside of this half-dressed young man, Andre -Louis combed his hair what time he looked up with a half smile, intended to be friendly, ingenuous, and disarming, "What is your pleasure, captain?" "My pleasure is to tell you that you are very likely to be gaoled for this, all the pack of you." "But how so, my captain? This is coMmunal land—free to all." "It is nothing of the kind. This is terra censive." "Technically, I suppose you are i right," sighed Andre -Louis, and fell Ito combing his hair again, still look- ung up into the . sergeant's face. "We are grateful to' you for the warning." Treat corns- with Minard's i,!nirnent. he sat down to breakfast with them behind the itinerant house, an odd and yet an attractive crew. They numbered exactly eleven, three women and eight men; and they addressed each other by their stage names: names which denoted their several types and never varied, no matter what might be the play that they performed. "We are," Pantaloon informed hint, one of those few remaining staunch bands of real players, who uphold the traditions of the old Italian Commedia dell' Arte. Each of Os is his own author as he develops the part assign- ed to him. We are improvisers—im- provisers of the old and noble Italian school," And he proceeded to introduction in detail. He pointed out the long and amiable Rhodomont, whom Andre - Louis already knew. "Then here we have Scaramouche, whom also you already know. Some- times he is Scapin and sometimes Coviello, but in the main Scara- mouehe, to which let me tell you he is best suited—sometimes too well suited, I think. For he is Scara- mouehe not only on the stage, but also in the world.

A dark ray, which it is said will enable the operator to pierce fog or smoke and sere what is beyond, was exhibited by J. L. Baird, inventor of the televisor, in his London labora- tory; the naw invention is called "noctovision." Its inventor claims it will render naval and military smoke screens useless in warfare. It may also banish, the element of surprise from naval and n3ilitatty aerial actions,;' and make it possible to locate fleets; in the skies or at sea. In the presence of Admiral Mark Kerr, and others, Baird transmitted a doll's features through an artificial fog, produced by chemicals, so dense as 1o. nearly choke his assistants. The new ray is a sort of invisible searchlight, which it is said, has 16 times the penetration power of ordi- nary light through fog or smoke. The ray makes a sound when .it encoun- ters a solid object or even a ray of light. Each object produces a dif- ferent sound, from which it is pos-1 sible to determine its nature. wonder?
