A cowboy appeared at a railroad sta
tion in Nevada and stated that he-desired
to ship to parents east the body of a
comrade, who had been killed by a griz
zly bear. In shipping the box the agent
noticed that it was quite heavy and not
of the usual oblong shape. In a few days
came a telegram: “Some mistake; Bill’s
body not arrived.” The cowboy, who
was at the station on a protracted “blow
in.” wired back; “No mistake; Bill inside
the bear.”

With that she began, absent-mindedly, tc
kum. But Lydia, interrupting her, gayty
trilled:
“ k I know not what it meaneth,
That I am so sad to-day;
But a song of the times departed
Will not from my brain away.’
“You are constantly humming that ‘Ad
dm.' Do you know it, Natalie mine?”
Whereat, Natalie, infected by her flow of
spirits, laughed and said:
“How absurd it all is, is it not? And,
•fter all, what foolish creatures we are.”
Lydia, not comprehending this irrelevant
remark at first, stared; then, remembering
the eccentricities of her friend, ventured
the equally irrelevant and non-committal
statement that:
“The whole sum and substance of the
matter is, as Solomon says: ‘Fear God and’
—ahem!—l add, obey your husband, when
you get one.”
Laughing heartily, they could not have
told why, both dashed away, two magnifi
cent. specimens of womanhood, noble
hearted girls, fearless, frank and true.
The all-observant Fairfax had noted, cau
tiously, one other fact—that the stone
by which Natalie had mounted lay directly
against the huge trunk of an enormous
willow-tree.
Oxford was now all eagerness to return
to the village immediately.
“Wait,” said Fairfax, putting out his
hand to restrain him and looking steadily in
the direction whence the girls had first ap
peared.
They waited—perhaps ten minutes- Fair
fax silent and thoughtful, revolving some
scheme or other in his brain, but observant
all the time; Dick, too, quiet, but chiefly
from curiosity.
A carriage was heard approaching. It
contained the lovers, Catharine and Dimitri,
who seemed more oblivious than ever to the
surrounding world. There horse was,
clearly, the only one of the party who had
( us wi ts about him. Being a sagacious and
dtioile beast, witty a vision of oats in the dis
tance, he was directing himself homeward
with energetic steps.
After they had passed out of sight, Fair
fax then motioned to his friend to follow
him. Going over to -the stone from which
- atalie had mounted, the pair sat down.
As I told you,” began Fairfax, **l leave
to-night lor Havre, or for Paris, via St.
il.ilo; and I want you to leave to-morrow
night at the same hour—both of us ostensi
bly not to return. You will tell landlord
Baudray that you are goin&to Paris under
*tand? 1 shall inform him, that I am going
" Like a steamer to America to-morrow.

I Now, continued he, “as to your occu-

■tois .r b charger and mounts from
r ’ oue 051 which we are now sitting, and
that your friend, Lydia, has been with hei
but once.”
“ Now, w said he, speaking slowly to im
press his listener, “my boy, I must ask you
to take observations in my place, to-morrow.
If they all agree with mine, I shall take it
for granted that they indicate a regular oc
currence of what I have just told you. More
especially—do you hear, friend ?—am I anx
ious to learn whether Lydia will be with hei
again. I must positively learn that. You
get these points?
“ l do,” said Richard.
“ Now, can that valet of yours keep a se
cret?”
“ The rack wouldn’t extract it from him,
if he makes up his mind to do so.”
“Will he falter; or have any qualms of
conscience about taking part in a hazardous
scheme?”
“He’ll do whatever I tell him.”
“Very well, I tvant his assistance, too, in
this matter. I want you both to pack up;
say farewell; go to St. Malo; buy your
tickets to P iris—being exceedingly cautious
to keep in the background, and, on no ac
count, make known your names—send all
your baggage through to that city; but get
off—both of you —at Dot. I will arrive a few
moments later. We will then hold a con
sultation together. Do you get the idea?”
“I do,” replied the attentive and very
much puzzled Oxford.
“Will you act accordingly?”
“I will.”
“Very well, then, let’s join hands on it.
Meanwhile I must ask you to wait longer
before I admit you to my secret.”
“I see and acquiesce,” meekly said Dick.
Upon which they got into the buggy and
silently drove home to the inn, each one
occupied with liis own peculiar thoughts.
CHAPTER VIII.
rr this kails mk, every thing else fails,
TOO!
At half-past nine Fairfax was off and
away, having first taken Dick aside and
made that now completely docile, but mysti
fied individual, recite in order his various
duties for the morrow. Oxford did this with
so much precision as to win commendation
from his friend, who added:
‘ ‘ Now, whatever else you may do, my boy,
I want you to make it distinctly understood
that you have gone away to Paris, to return
‘no more, forever f his year, at least. You
observed how marked I was in my adieus to
all, giving out that I was going back to
America immediately?”
At midnight he was in St. Malo, where he
found awaiting him a telegram from Neb
bitt himself.
“Message only just received. See you
to-morrow on board ‘Morna,’ Havre, 10 a.m.”
Fairfax smiled, and remarked:
“ Persistence often succeeds where genius
fails.”
At the hour named he stood on the deck
of the “Morna,” as she lay at anchor off
Havre. Nebbitt, looking as if he had just
stepped from a bandbox, came forward,
and with his prompt, clear-cut sentences,
began the conversation:
“Good morning, Fairfax. Luckily for
you,a more whim of mine brought me back,
and, had I followed it out, entirely,l sjiouid
now have been in Southampton. I should
never have waited for any other man but
you. I observe you’re in a hurry; I’m at
your service. What can I do for you ?”
“Yes, lam in haste. I want to see you
privately”
“Let us go into the cabin,then,” said Neb
bitt, leading the way into an elegant saloon,
where he motioned Fairfax to a seat.
“ Well, Mr. Nebbitt, it’s just this,” said
Fairfax, and plunged directly in mcdtas res.
Nebbitt listened with constantly increas
ing wonder and attention.
When the narrative was closed with the
concise remark: “That’s the whole thing in
a nut-shell,” he burst forth with the excla
mation :
“Most extraordinary thing I ever heard
of in my fife! Make a sensation greater
than Would the assassination of the Czar
or Victoria! But how did it succeed, my
dear fellow? ”
A Succeed! Succeeded so well that no one
can find the slightest clue.”
“Capital! Splendid! I qan scarcely be
lieve it! Such a plucky thing would
have—”
“Stop! What did you call it?”
“Plucky, I said, and I do consider it so.”
“Do you actually mean to say you con
sider it plucky apd commendable?”
“Plucky! Why, my dear boy, I think it
one of the boldest things I ever heal'd of.
I’d like to shake hands with that fellow.
Success is success. Since you say he has
succeeded, I consider it a master-stroke.
But,” said he, suddenly and sharply, “how
came you to know any thing about it? It
looks—”
“Stop, again. Mr. Nebbitt. I’ve been lying
to you. Nothing of the kind has hap
pened.”
Nebbitt’s countenance changed in an in
stant, and his eye had a dangerous gleam
in it. But he waited quietly to learn the
next move of this enigmatic youth.
“It has not been done yet, but by Heavens!
it shall be!—” Here Fairfax arose to his
utmost height, his eye flashing fire, his
nostrils dilated and his fist clenched —
“And to-morrow, too!” At the last words,
he brought down his hand with such
violence upon the table that the elegant
Nebbitt unconsciously started.
With a sarcastic smile and a sneer curling
his lip, he sat silently regarding the antics
of his hair-brained visitor.
“ Now,” continued the infatuated young
man, “ I want you to help me. Without
you, it can not be done. With your help,
not only can it be done, but it will be a
brilliant success. You yourself, a moment
since, averred that you considered it the
master-stroke of the age.”
“ My dear fellow, there is a vast differ
ence between a thing done and a thing un
done. You arc not in your sane mind, now,
boy. Do you know what would be the con
sequence of failure in such an undertak
ing? Jt would kick up a deuce of a row;
and imagine my own predicament besides.”
Fairfax saw that he had made a mistake,
and that his task, as far as the influencing
of Nebbitt was concerned, was much
greater than he had anticipated. He had
no impressible Dick to deal with. He must
talk with this man intelligently, unenthusi
astically; reason with him and present his
plans in an opfen, logical manner, stating
the facts as they appeared to him, and not
withholding the chances of failure.
Coolly lighting a cigarette and leaning
lazily back, he began in a slow, measured,
colorless tone to set forth the case exactly
as it was. Cold-blooded facts were what
his listener desired.
Fairfax gave him these, and having, in
this way, thrown Nebbitt a little off his
"mard, .began —yet without appearing so to
do—to appeal to the element of dare-devil
try and dash that he knew was latent in
that man’s nature. Little by little he
worked on the latter, until, by and by, his
.now thoroughly-interested auditor slapped
his thigh with his hand, ejaculating:
“What a sensation it would create. Gad 1
the very originality and daring of the plan
almost tempts me to try it.
Fairfax said nothing, but sat silently
smoking. Ho perceived he had gained his
point.
Nebbitt rose and began pacing the saloon
floor in deep thought, every now'and then
emitting an explosive laugh.
At last bo suddenly turned, came towards
Fairfax, put his hands on the latter’s
f
shoulders, and looked him straight in the
eye.
What he saw there seemed to be the
cause of an immediate decision on his part,
and well it might. That firmly-closed
mouth and dauntless eye, in which caution
and daring were equally conspicuous, be
tokened unswerving persistence.
“Fairfax,” said Nebbitt. “it shall be done!
Your plan is excellent. Execute it in every
detail as you gave it to me and success is
certain. Omit one , and the chances of fail
nre will outweigh those of success. As to
your two ‘heavy villains,’ you may set your
mind at rest about them. I have in my
crew two men exactly suited to the require
ments of the deed. Both understand, and
one fluently speaks, French. You can rely
npon their rigid and fearless execution of
any command you may see fit to lay upon
them; and should any unexpected emer
gency arise, their judgment seldom fails to
direct them aright. I know them from past
years,” said Nebbitt, with a faint smile.
“As to your equipment and all of that fol
de-rol, give my steward a list of what you
want, and he will go to Paris and attend to
all of that business. As to the other matter
of which you speak, Mr. Porte himself is
now in Paris. I can, no doubt, secure you
his Bar Harbor cottage for the autumn.
You surely won’t want it for a longer
period?” said he, with a curious smile.
“Wait a moment,” he continued, disap
pearing for a short time, and returning
with two seamen, sharp, shrewd, daring
looking fellows.
“Mr. Fairfax, these are Jack Longshore
and Davy Jones. My men, you are to go
“these ahk hck LONGSHORE and patt
JONE3.” 1
with tlfls gentleman and be under his orders
as long as he needs you. He’s got a very
ticklish job for you and your pret
tiest work. Understand, no liquor, now.”
“ Aye! Aye! sir,” returned both men, de
lighted at the prospect of something novel
and exciting.
“ Now, away with you both to pack your
grip-sacks.”
A moment later appeared the steward, to
whom Nebbitt also gave the instruc
tions. w
Twenty minutes afterward the entire par
ty of adventurers was on board the fast ex
press to Paris.
The steward was so successful in execut
ing his commissions that in the evening he
was again on board the “Namovna,” which,
at ten o’clock, had weighed anchor and was
rapidly steaming out into the channel.
Meanwhile Fairfax and his two men
found their limited time barely sufficient for
fulfilling the many errands imposed upon
each. But the trio arrived at the station
just in season to board the cars for Dol,
with the comfortable feeling that everv
thing had been done as planned.
CHAPTER IX.
MY TTDE AT THE FLOOD.
Arrived at Dol, Fairfax found Dick and
his valet in waiting. The party, divided
in three sections, having apparently no
connection one with the other, sauntered
slowly down the road, toward a rendezvous
convenient, yet secluded.
Richard was then interrogated as to the
result of his investigations.
“Well, to begin with,” said that tired and
sleepy youth, „ drawing himself up to his
handsomely proportioned length and yawn
ing alarming, “Lydia was there again; and
there’s no use in denying the fact that she’s
got Arthur Fairfax on the brain—dead
gone. I believe. And, between you and me
and yon stream, I’m inclined to think, too,
the iceberg’s beginning a little to thaw.”
“Stop,” said his listener, decisively, “this
is no time for nonsense. Relate the events;
not your beliefs.”
“ Well, my boy, she left at half-past six.
Darby and Joan, otherwise Dimitri and
Catherine, lagged behind. Your friend
again watered Medji at the pool, and re
mounted from the self same stone. Lydia
kept her horse and, before they rode off, I
heard her promise to eom,c again to-mor
row.”
“Hm-m-m!” said Fairfax, reflectively,
“that young lady can easily be disposed of.
I believe you chanced the other day to men
tion the fact that Lady Blanche, now in
Paris, is her aunt, did you not ?”
“ Yes,” replied Dick, wonderingly.
Fairfax took from his vest pocket a tele
graphic blank, on which was written the
simple word, “Send. F.”
“ No\v, my fair charmer, Miss Lydia, I
think we have you out of the way.”
“ Roger,” continued he, calling the valet,
“deliver this at the telegraph office, and
then hire a horse and buggy at some livery
stable. Be sure and secure a strong horse
and a buggy with a rubber apron for wet
weather.”
Iu perhaps half an hour the sound of ap
proaching wheels was heard, and Roger
quickly announced himself. Finding the
vehicle suited for the service which he de
sired to impose upon it, Fairfax called the
three men together, saying:
“Go to some inn for the night. At eight
o’clock to-morrow morning take the dili
gence that leaves here, and passes X. cross
road—only a short distance from our desti
nation. Roger, you know the way from
there to the village, and the point beyond—
where you went with Mr. Oxford yesterday
—near where the bnook crosses the road at
the pool. You understand?”
“I do sir.” said Roger, knowingly.
“Very well, then, you all understand. Put
all your bundles in the carriage and go.off
"for a good sleep.”
The three servants were quickly on their
way to the village, Roger proving himself
perfectly invulnerable when bombarded
with questions by the two excited and curi
ous seamen.
Dick and Fairfax, meanwhile, were on
their way to the village of Y, thirty miles
distant. At half-past three o’clock in the
morning they were approaching the well
known town, and the east was beginning to
snow faint signs of light.
Fairfax urged to a rapid pace the horse
that quickly carried them through the slum
bering place. He made a brief pause at the
inn of Landlord Baudray. They drove di
rectly toward the appointed rendezvous near
the fateful pool and led the horse into the
midst of a neighboring grove, where it was
quite evident no one would stray, otherwise
than by the merest accident.
Turning to Dick, Fairfax heaved a sigh,
with the after feunark:
“My friend, all is complete— every thing.
Only the intervention of Heaven, now, can
defeat my plans.”
Then, for the first time, Oxford’s curi
osity a3 to the schemes of his friend were
satisfied.
He had made up his mind, whatever might
be their character, not to betray the slight
est emotion on learning them; and to do him
justice, outwardly he evinced no sign of the
dismay that overwhelmed him as he listened
to the outrageous project of his mad friend.
Although his heart sank within him. he
made no remark at first. Fairfax watched
him keenly, to observe the effect of his own
words.
Finally, with a gravity wholly unwonted
and an impressive seriousness, all the more
effective because unusual, Oxford turned to
Fairfax, and said:
“ I promised to be with you in whatever
you undertook. I will keep my word if you
insist upon it. It is not too late,even yet.foi
you to forego this unfortunate affair. I, my
self, think it unnecessary, extremely im
practicable and dangerous, and, frankly,
idiotic as well as wicked.”
Not a line moved in his hearer’s impassive
countenance.
That extraordinary individual had consid
ered the entire matter in all its actual and
possible relations altd contingencies; had
become excited to an unnatural and ex
tremely unreasonable pitch of mind, and
was resolved that nothing should deter him
from his undertaking.
Although somewhat startled at the sound
advice and solemn words of the hitherto
light-hearted Richard, and realizing, for a
moment, the folly of his prospective deed
and the long list of misfortunes and evils
that might follow in its train, he immediate
ly steeled himself against the weakness of
the moment, and was once more the man of
unswerving purpose and iron will.
“This man, Dick, must be won again. I
am fast losing my hold upon him and must
regain it and make it stronger. No half
hearted work will suffice at this late date,”
was his silent self-reasoning.
Beginning in that plausible, seductive and
irresistibly attractive manner of his, he
gradually overcame Dick’s conscientious
scruples; dulled his com mon-sense, appealed
to his adventurous spirit, and thus began, to;
arouse his flairerinsr interest in the

it cost me over SIOO.OO and then my

A Most Remarkable I'asc of Scrofula and
Rheumatism.
I have a little boy twelve years old
whose knees have been drawn almost
double and his joints are perfectly stiff
and has been in this condition over three
years, unable to walk. During that time
the medical board of Loudon county ex
amined him and pronounced his disease
scrofula and prescribed but no benefit
ever derived. I then used a much adver
tised preparation without benefit. Three
weeks ago he became perfectly helpless
and suffered dreadfully.
A friend who had used B. B. B. adver
tised its use. He has used one bottleand
all pain has ceased and he can now walk.
This lias been pronounced a most won

fled everything. I shall # continue to use
