Bidard, "do' you Dee those three shadows out- lined en the curtain'of the salon'l" "Certainly, the woman and the two messieurs, parbleu 1Iust •bo that sapper isn't ready, or they are expecting some one; they don't ap- pear to be going to the dining room, , "They are standing, though."

"No, if that was so they wouldn't have lighted the salon and dining- - room; But we shall see. „ Five minutes passed inci- dent. i- dent. The two stories were brilli- antly lighted, but the shadows -had disappeared. Suddenly: the little dear through which Madame Ser - gest laid disappeared the evening -of 'the Rink was opened softly. A man appeared on the threshold fol- , lowed by a servant hearing a, light with two branches. Tay the bright nese of this light Maxime .recogniz- ed Borisoff and redoubled his atten- tion. He held a short colloquy with the valet de pied which by means of the gestures the observer r interpreted for himself, "He says he willreturn," thcught IlrIaxime, "and the servant explains s that he has only to ring t g a,rcl they wopen eu to him." 1 The door closes again. Borisoff goes toward the Boulevard Male- shei'bes. And now the fencing-mas- ` ter and the thief reappear behind the window of •the salon. From theist's they observe the colonel. Trey are awaiting his return. "Shall I follow their example or risk a sally to see where ho is go- ingl" Maxine determined on the '.te•. `Listen," :he said to his ally Bi- rd, "I want to find out what that tan is going to do. I am going to Ilow him to the end of the street a return." "That is easy. I will open to nsieur and resume my post. oiisi.Ytr bas only to knock on the window when he returns." Maximo glided into the street and saw Borisoff 'fifteensteps in ad-, vauce, and at the same time a. man whose feet were pattering on the aqua -re at the eutrance of Rue Jouffroy. This ores no other than the ooacllnan of his victoria. "Good!" he thought, "1 may let my Russian pass on. My coachman l�+i• win tell me which way he took.'' So he disappeared in the shadow of the y war, to watch events bora afar. The colonel walkingquickly soon reached the Boulevard 1•Ialcshor- bes ; there be stopped, and- obscrv- ieg the coachman, went straight to- ward him. This surpr'ised'Maximo, who z.. ganato look with all his eyes, ering, with a certain anxiety, What 13orisoff had to say to this man. The conversation prolonged itself for an unreasonable length -of tine, more than could be needed to ascertain from a coachman whe- ther his carriage. was free. But et length Borisoff .passed on his way and was lost in the darkness. 11iax- i1r11.after waiting awhile, went to- ward the boulevard. Arrived at the end of the street he stopped to loop around, then turned, to the right and rejoined the c0aeltnlan, who recognized him immediately and, began to laugh. . '"Ah, ntonsionr," he said, "la partieuliere'3 gentleman wanted to pump me, but 1 turned him off nide- ly Fancy that seeing. my coach drawn up here he mistrusted me at ones and asked if I had brought somebody to Rue Jouffroy. 1 knew ‘t, hitt and t `wns up tuld him was waiting for a doctor who hired me by the-, month, and was on a visit in that big house Lou a yonder—on the boulevard." • Really 1" exclaimed Maxine, "you have put him off file track. That was a good idea of yours, and of I shall remember it when we set - ).'S tie." "Oh," said the coachman, "I'm not uneasy about my pourboire; I know my man. That's why I could tell that tall olio there was the Husband, and a 'husband jealous as a turkey, and 1 sec well enough that you mean to play him a trick." • "Perhaps, but, did he not ask you to drive him sol iiewhcre11 11 " i � ,", us itvoiced him i, see ni x ,Y 011 ail agc drawls 111, lit the earl cr.rIhe . ht: where rc, he had lost 1.

"Thanks, and au revoir to -night or to-marrow,.according as events niay determine." flatteredthe col - Auguste, by lft donne in hila exhibited by his, mon- Maur, made a magnificent gesture,. which signified: ." Be easy; I ant here." And having thus arranged his affairs, Maxime hastened to regain his ambuscade. The porter awaited him and open- ed—with great alacrity, anxious to learn the. result of the sally. "Is monsieur satisfied? Has monsieur discovered . anything new 1" "Thu -man sped away by the Boulevard ivralesherbes, but I em satisfied he means to return." "Oh, 'that is clear as day. They are not oin le without him. g g to tab An is lit upnothin moves in the house. and Proof that they are waiting for him." • "Rush!" said Maxine, in a low voice. At this moment a carriage stopped a hundred metres from Madame Sergent's lianas. To Maxirne's great amazement, Robert de Cernoel descended from the carriage and advanced toward the house, 'flanked by two tall mon who pressed him closely, but did nos hold himas policemen do a prisoner. They had even the ap- neas -crime of talking with him, and it could be seen he walked of his own freewill, The door was open and a valet; de pied stood -there With a light. Evidently he waited to receive Carnoei. "Monsieur," said Bidard under his breath, "I believe they are g� - mg to con -unit a crime. They are bringing the young,nian to the Tour de Neste. Surely it is to strangle hini. I have a .mind . to call for help.", "Not yet," replied Maxine,. quickly, "see first what they will "Look, sir! above there—in the salon—»those two shadows behind the windows—„ "It is Che lady and her friend, the ono' who remained --they arc expecting the other. They heard the carriage ,and have cone to the wild -ow." "I lay a wager they don't open i;. My two tenants' of the third story have opened theirs, and the brigands don't care to show them- selves. ' "See ! the shadows disappear I it is the street we• iltust watch." Nothing extraordinary occurred. The carriage did not move—neither did the three; men who had come as scouts. They had well chosen -their places, for they seemed . to make part bf the wall, and to slissa cel 11 tlteni it was necessary to know they were there. The coachman remained motion- less on his seat. Robert de Carted reached the little door esoortecl by trail persons suitably attired, acid folio -wed by a third who' left the berlin alter him. A chance pas- ser-by, whom a nocturnal promen- ade had led to Rue Jtatiffroy would. have thoughtht it all quite natural.

Maxixne had little inclination of that sort, and the persons on the street still less. They looked up to see who had' uttered this mock - in„ appeal --all, including the coachman- on the box, this singular coachman with a tali hat on. The one who paid least attention to this. successful imitation of the reville chant was undoubtedly Robert tie Carnet. He appeared in haste to enter, and the valet who held the candelabra made way for him to pass. One of the three escorts passed the threshold immediately after the prisoner, and the two others were about to de the sante, but -the torch -bearer held a brief colloquy with them, during which they paused, standing en each side of the door their comrade had just entered. The -coachman in citizen's dress tied the reins, left los seat precipitately and handed his whip the individuals tressed to one of rade~ dt s 1 .against the wall. This man left his post and placed himself et the head of the horses. "Monsieur," said the porter in a low voice, "look! the lights are put out in the salon. Droll idea that! to blow out the candles just as the guests arrive -the . dining -room, tco 1 They must intend to . spend the night playing hide-and-seek. Look! it seems to confound the man who has just gotten down from the box—he looks at the windows— he retreats a. little to get a better view -yes, ogle as , you will, my you ere; y child, all is black up there; , must go in without alight." Borisoff standing in the middle' of the street appeared to hesitate. He turned and looked up, probably to see if the persons who had imi- tated the cock were still at the win- dows. He then went straight to the door guarded by two of his subalterns. They moved aside to make way, and just assise was about to push it open, it was closed vio- lently by some one on . the inside. "Ah 1 they have slammed the door in his face," exclaimed M. Bidard; "what was that coachman after? Diel he suppose : himself invited tong" "It is no coachman," said Max- ims-, who had recognized Borisoff. "Be: is queerly dressed for hold- ing the reins, that's a fact, But if he is' a nlonsieitr, why was he on the box? Oh, oh! he is angry; he knocks at the door,—beats with his fee;. and fists. Good 1 there aro the two.others taking part in it. If the door was riot pretty. firm they would break it down. What an up- roar they make! They will rouse the neighborhood.

Right here, in the finest neighborhood in Paris, to have these brigands acting like- they iketheybelieved it was the forest of Bondy. I am going to give the alarm—if monsieur does net op- pose it." At this moment the e c t -crown n g sounded out still more clearly, ac- companied by a rattling noise. A falsetto voice cried out: "Out - throat!" A base voice roared: "Scaling a wall—in the. night -oc- cupied house—band of malefactors —galleys for life." `(To be continued.) Y YOU E WH R THIN r HOW TO GET FLESHY. Discusses Causes of Thinness and ;Gives New Method of Increasing Weight and Rounding Out the Form. Prescription Accomplishes Wonders A treatment which anyone can prepare .cheaply at home, has ;been found to increase the weight, im- prove the health, round out.scraw- ny figures, improve the bust, brighten the eyes and put new color into the cheek's and lips of anyone who is too thin and bloodless. 'It puts flesh onthose who have been always thin whether from disease er natural tendency; ; on those who by heavy eating and diet have in vain tried to increase ; on those who feel well but can't get fat; and on those who have tried every known p in vain. It is a powerful method aid to digestion, nutrition and as- similation. It assists the blood and nerves to distribute all over the body the flesh elements contained in food, and gives the thin person the same absorbing qualities pos- sessed by the naturally fleshy. Everybody is about the same, but certain elements and organs •of blood and nerves are deficient and until this is corrected, thin people will stay thin. The nutrition stays in the body after separation by the digestive functions instead of pass- ing through unused, when this e of blended val- uable treatment o d d medi- cines is used. Practically no one can remain thin who uses it, for it supplies' the long need. Mix in a half plat bottle, three ounces of essence of pepsin, and three ounces of syrup of rhubarb. Then adcl one ounce compound es- sence cardiol. Shake and let stand two hours. Then add one ounce of tinetu.re cademeno compound (not cardamom).

Invention Proves of Value in Diag- nosing Stomach Troubles. The "stomach telescope," or gas- troscope, invented at the London Hospital last year, has proved to be of the greatest value in the diag- nosis of stomach disorders. An eminent surgeon recently referred in the highest -terms to the advanc- es lately made at that hospital in the early detection of diseases of the stomach by means ofthis in- strll meat whi i , , cl will in the imme- diate 'future probably conte to be Dart of the equipment of every up- to-date hospital. The gastroscope now enables the physician or sur - eon to actual f • I see o himself self. the g r n 3 exact condition of the whole of the interior of the stomach, the slight- est' ulceration, growth or other ab- normality in the lining membrane being thus readily observed. To be able to do this is of the very great- est importance in suspected can- cer of the stomach, iivhere the only hope of :cure 'lies in the eracliea- tion of the cancerous growth at the very earliest moment. This means that, th.e increased use of the gas- trescope will in the future save ninny lives that would otherwise in- evitably be lost through that dis- ease. -London Telegraph. GROWING OLD TOGETHER.
