Forget the ache your own heart holds

Forget your hungering for wealth
By seeking others' gain; \

By brightening the years - ?
For tears dry quicker the eyes
That look for others' tears.
Heartache fades quickest from the

That feels another's pain;

We seek another's gain;
Life's sands run lightly if we till
With kindness all the years
And tears dry quicker In the eyes

CHAPTER VI1.
GAltDKN OF HEI.-Alll.
The Marquis dc Presles had told
Labour to carry Henriette to Bel-Air,
and we will visit those gardens on the
same evening that the beautiful orphan
was abducted.
The scene there was a brilliant one,
well illustrating the pleasures of t Ire
nobles of France about the beginning |
m uic present century.
A small garden had been made in
the midst ot a natural grove, which
was shut out from the curious ga/.e of
the world by several small eottagesor
chalets, decorated In the highest style
of art: and which served the Maruuis
de I'rosles as a retreat, where, free
from intrusion, that'profligate nobleman
could enjoy, t he society of boon
companions, who, like himself, lived
only for the present and its pleasures.
On this particular evening the gardens
were illuminated, and a large
party of so-called ladies and gentlemen
were assembled to do full honor
to the entertainments for which the
marquis was celebrated.
As we attempt to pass within the
enclosure, we are stopped by a numerous
crowd of lackeys, who demand to
see our card of admission, and failing
to produce such a passport, we are tolil
we are not allowed even near the
gardens; while all efforts to induce
any of them to present our cards to
the master of this retreat arc equally
unavailing, as they declare that their
orders are most positive, and we
must go quietly awav or be forced to
go. Thus jealously does the marquis
guard his retreat from importunate
creditor or unwelcome friend.
Inasmuch as we only visit Bel-Air
in fancy, we can bid defiance to the
marquis s orders, and enter without
his permission.
Around the tables which are placed
in the garden, a number of ladies and
gentlemen are seated, drinking wine
while they discuss the latest court
news, or the most Interest inir
"Well, what do you think of my retreat
from t lie whirl and bustle of
Paris?" asked the marquis of his vis-avis,
who was a dashing sort of beauty.
"My dears Marquis," replied that
lady, "I am delighted. It is a satisfaction
to tind a gentleman who maintains
the customs of his rank."
"And yet there are fools who want
to change them!" exclaimed a young
nobleman from the opposite table.
"You are right?fools?fools," answered
De Presles, as lie motioned to
the servants for more wine.
"By the way," asked the lady who
had first spoken, "you have heard the
news?"
As no one had heard anything particularly
ngw for the past two hours,
she continued by saying:
"They say that the new minister of
police is as hard as a stone, and cold as
a tish. He is going to put a stop to all
our amusements, and, marquis, this
may be the last entertainment you
give at Bel-Air."
"Nonsense!" exclaimed the host.
"I'd like to see the minister of police
who would dare to interfere with the
pleasures of a ! rench nobleman. Who
and what is he?"
"He is from Tourains: is called the
Count de Linieres, and is the uncle of
the Chevalier Maurice de Vaudrev."
"Where is the chevalier?" suddenly
asked one of t he ladies, as she was thus
reminded of one whom report had described
as rather eccentric, and on whom
she wished to exercise her charms.
"You promised me 1 should see him,
Marquis."
"So 1 did, and 1 expect him as well
as another guest. I warn you, ladies,
that she will be a rival to you all."
"Who is the other guest?" was the
question which assailed him from all
quarters!
"A young lady," answered the marquis,
as if enraptured at the thought.
"Sweet sixteen, beautiful as a rose,
and Innocent as an angel."
"Where did you tincl such a pearl?"
asked one of the ladies, banteringly*
"In Normandy."
This announcement was followed by
a general laugh
"Yes, 1 know these Normandy beauties
witn caps six feet high," laughed
one of the ladies l>etraying in spite of
herself, a t Inge of jealousy in her voice.
"In wooden shoe's," added another of
the fair ones, "and hair plaited down
her back."
"Laugh away, ladies," said Do 1'resles,
gayly. "You shall see a Norman
beautv in a high cap, wooden shoes
and all, and then see how jealous you
will all become at sight of her."
At this moment a voice was heard
from the outside, and in the midst of
some confusion, a rather singular voice
was heard saying:
"I tell you I must go in, and 1 will.
J must speak to your master."
On hearing this the marquis went
toward the entrance, and demanded
of the servants who this was, who was
so importunate.
"I'icard," answered the owner of
the singular voice "i'icard, valet to
the Chevalier da Vaudrey."
The marquis immediately gave orders
that he be admitted, and a sharp,
wiry-looking fellow, wearing the Do
Vaudry livery, stood lie fore the gay
party.
"Most excellent Marquis, and most
beautiful ladies," said he, in an affectionate
tone, and with a low !>ow,
which was received with laughter, "I
am very sorry, but my master asks
you to excuse him."
"Excuse him?" echoed one of the
ladies, "why he promised "
"I did the promising," answered
Picard, with another of his sweeping
Ik>ws. "lie said lie did not know
whether he could come or not, but
thinking 1 could persuade him, I
promised for him."
- -
m ii^ii jkjii liajk ii great iiocrly,"
said I>c Prcsles, "and he ought to punIsh
you for It."
"Certainly he ought," answered IMcard,
blandly; "1 wish he would; but
alas! iny master is not like other master
at all."
Seeing looks of Incredulity at this
statement, Heard continued, in a
most solemn manner.
"It is so, gentlemen. He spends his
nights in pleasure, as a young nobleman
should; but his days how do you <
?n*i
suppose he spends his days?" j si
"Sleeps, of course," said the ivmrjuls.
In a positive tone. tl
"Gentlemen, allow me to tell you h
xmfldentially," said the valet, mys- It
Lerlotisly, as the gentlemen withered t
Around lilm, fully expecting to hear of ci
lome treason, "lie works! actually
works! lie sits down and roads and t<
writes as though he were a lawyer's t
clerk." 1>
" Hah!" exclaimed one. "You don't n
expect us toUdievc that?" : g
"Yes. and more too," answered I heard,
who enjoyed immensely being e
able to impart some information to his 1
superiors. " Why, how do you suppose v
he acts to the common people who j
want to see him? His creditors, for in- J
stance?" i{1
"Why, If they are importunate, he ;}
boats them, 1 suppose." answered I)c
Hresles, with whom this method of '
settling his hills was a common occur- '
rence.
" Yes, he beats them." sneered I'ic- 1
ard; "lie pays them! Yes. gentlemen,
itc pays his tradespeople.' And the '
valet surveyed the group, enjoying lite '
surprise he had given them. 1
"Oh, the poor fellow is lost!" ex-1 1
claimed one of the party, who at the i N
age of twenty had spent a large fortune I
and was now living on his wits.
"Completely." altlnned 1'icard, "and i 1
allowing to the company keeps, lie '
won't be guided by me."
"lYrhans lie is right in that " an. 1'
swcred l>e Presles "lint where 1st lie .
attraction elsewhere to-night?"
"1 will tell you. gentlemen," said a (
deep voice near the entrance to the
gardens, and looking up, all saw the .
Chevalier do Yaudrey himself. \
lie was a noble-looking man with
none of the fopperies and evident at- j
tempt at display which characterized .
some of ids companions, and a careful *
observer would instantly have said (
that lie was. in mental endowments, (
far above t he average.
"What is all this that I Meant lias (
been telling us, that you were not coin
tngV" asked Presles, lb surprise. (
"1 did not expect to come, so sent
him with my regrets," answered the
chevalier, as he accepted a glass of ,
wine which was handed to him. j
"And now he brings them himself," ,
said lMcard, in a low voice, as ho left
tllO garden hastily, lest his master
should hear of the disclosures lie had ,
been making
The conversation became general,
and before long the orgy was at its (
height, when a noise was heard at the ,
cut ranee, and Lalleur appeared.
After whispering a few words to the
marquis, he received the order:
"Let her he brought in here."
Lalleur immediately retired, and re- ,
turned in a few minutes, followed by j
four men who bore a sort of litter, oil (
which was the inanimate form of
Jlcnrlettc. ,
She lay like one dead; without motion
or color, and save for the sound of ,
stertocous breat hing, she was to all |
appearances dead.
Into the midst of some of the most ^
dissolute Parisian society, had the .
poor, innocent, unprotected girl been (
brought: with no one to aid her, and ,
j even those of her own sex who were by
would enjoy her suffering rather than (
do anything to save her from the fear- .
ful doom that was so near.
What a terrible change for the two
i orphans, who. scarcelv t went v-fnnr
- ? ? J J
hours previous, wore light-hearted
maidens, sett ing out from their child- |
hood's homo to visit the beautiful city j
alK)ut which tlioy liad heard so much. ,
Now, one was in the power of low,
vile, wretches: and the other in the .
hands of those who called themselves
gentle people, but who had no more ,
mercy, in fact, not as much as the |
I'roe hards.
i
ClIAPTKU VIII.
SAVED FHOM OIS1IONOII.
Like a lily half broken from its stem t
lay Ilenriette upon the litter, sur- t
rounded by the revelers who had gathered
to see the Norman beauty.
Under the inlluence of the drug
which had been administered, she re- ,
mained unconscious of the rude jests ,
which were uttered, and the coarse |
laugh of triumph which greeted her N
arrival. s
Only one of the gay party was with-* j,
out curiosity respecting her appear- j
ance.
That one was the Chevalier Maurice v
do Vaudrey. I
lie passed by her as she was brought ,,
in, and seeing what it was that lay
upon the litter, contented himself by ..
remarking: I,
"A young girl! The sport has been ,,
good. ;
Then resuming his seat he waited
listlessly until some disposition should (
l>e made of the game which had been j,
so bravely captured.
"All, is this our threatened rival?"
asked one of the females,after looking, ,,
not without a fee1.ing of envy, at the
pale features of the abducted girl. .,
" Why, she has fainted," remarked S)
another, in a sarcastic voice. '
"Sleeping, my dear," said the lirst.
"it's much more becoming." i,
it ? LL. II 1 ?? '
u\l tins 11 veiy suny oi \vn, a general (|
laugh went around the company.
4,11 '11 wager that her eyes are but j.
half closed, and that she Is laughing c'
to herself at all the trouble you are v
taking," said the cynical I >e Vaudrey, ^
who had, years before, lost faith in ..
woman-kind. ..
And it is little wonder that in that
dissolute age an honest, noble-minded s
man should have believed womanly
purity to he a fable of the past.
"What do you think of my trcas- 's
lire?" asked l>e Preslcs, who had been N>
gloating 1)is sensual eyes upon the .(
form of the fair girl who was thus in [
his power.
"She has a very ordinary face," said
one of t he ladies (?), who prided herself
upon her beauty. "
"An exceedingly common person, as ei
you can tell by her feet,"said another, n
as she tried to display Iter own dainty
foot, which she took the greatest de- j
light in showing. j(
"Her arms and hands tire like a
washerwoman's," was the kindly re- .
mark of a bold-looking blonde, who
had exposed as much of her own arms
as possible. ^
"Chevalier, your opinion?" asked si
the bankrupt nobleman, who liked a d
bit of sarcasm, and not being able to
say it himscll, knew that it would he 0
sure to come from the eccentric Do ,
Vatid rev.
" It's a lovely face; distinguished air:
with the hands and feet of a duchess, "
replied the chevalier, without taking
the trouble to look at the object of his si
criticism. tl
"Hut you have not seen ?" De I'rcs- tl
les eagerly began to say. 81
"No," answered l>e Vaudrcy, cool* \
1V. "Hut 1 have heard those young
ladies."
The young nobleman who had pro- w
voked t ills remark was delighted; but >'
the ladies who had thus freely given
their opinions, favored him with a ei
glance which lacked not the will to si
wit her and blast the yistigator Of t his n
reflection upon their remarks. S1
"Isn't she going to wake up?" asked
one, in order to cover her confusion
"Oil, yes," said the marquis, as he 11
took a small, delicately chased silver K
flask from his pocket. "A few drops ft
of this on the handkerchief will lie b
nil iiMr^pnnrniinTr^^^F*'"
?
ufflcient to revive her."
The marquis poured a few drops of t
tie 1 iiiiiill upon the priceless laco ?
andkerehlcf which he held in his
and. and was nUiiit to apply It, when >
he desire to heighten the effect
iusod hhn to stop.
"NVhat will she say when she comes t
i> her senses?" he asked, much as t
hough he were speculating upon the |
rotable act ions of some strange anl- i
nil. rather than a weak, defenseless .
irl.
The young bankrupt nobleman lookd
at t lie chevalier, as if hoping thai
e would answer that question,and lie '
ias not disappointed. 1
"What will she say when she comes :
o her senses?" repeated be Yaudrcy, \
s though it was a useless question, i
he answer of which every one knew.
As though we did not know by heart
lie everlasl ing plirases of t hese wl 11ngly
abducted maidens. When the
iroper moment arrives she will wake
ip and go t hrough It all." i
Ihirsting Into a llood of imaginary
ears, i he chevalier proceeded to give
in iinitsit ion of the kind of cries inlulgcd
in hy maidens who, as he said,
lad been abducted by their own
vislies.
" Where am 1?" lie continued, In a
lying voice. "Why have you brought
lie here? What is it you wish? Great
leavens ah! my mother!"
Then resinning his natural tone, lie
iddcd:
"Then by slow degrees tiiis profound
?. .,1 -i
mi , ii i nuns uespair, wnicli commenced
in a torrent of tears, will be
irowned in a Hood of champagne."
All present joined in a heartv laugh
it l>e Vaudrey's imitation of what
:hev themselves hud soon many times.
"Let us see whether t lie chevalier
lias remembered the exact words,"
taid the young lady who had expressed
such an ardent wish to 800 the
chevalier. "Let me wake her, Marliiis."
I >e Presles gave her the handkerchief
which lie had saturated with the
liquid* and she proceeded to try its
ptrccts upon the unconscious Honriot
t o.
All present, except Do Vaudrcy,
cat hered around to enjoy the confusion
of the Norman heauly, when she
should awake to find herself in the
midst of the gay party, and the young
lady who had received the handkerchief
from the marquis applied the
rest oral ive.
Ilenrictte had inhaled the pungent
odor but a moment , when she showed
signs of ret u ruing consciousness.
"Look! her eyes open," exclaimed
the one who was thus bringing her to
i sense of misery.
I lenriette opened her cys in a dazed
sort of way, like one who. accustomed
to the darkness, is suddenly exposed to
I lie blinding gaslight.
She rose to sit ting posture mechanically,
and surveyed those around her.
Lor sonic moments she did not seem to

iiuueiMl Ullll IVIIUIT SIR' WHS, ()!' What
had happened.
"Am I mild?" she asked in amazement.
at the view which met tier gaze,
'ho I dream?" and clasping her hands
1<> her head, she endeavored to recall
the events which had passed.
"Chevalier, that is not exactly the
)ld way," said t he young lady who had
iwakeiied Ilenriette, to I)e Vaudrey.
"No. that is singular," said the
hevalier with his habitual sneer. "It
is rather an improvement."
By degrees t he abducted girl remcm>ercd
what had happened, and almost
n a Hash she understood where she
was.
Springing suddenly to her feet, she
onfronted t he marquis.
" Monsieur," she said, "has t his out age
been committed by your orders?
s t his your house?"
With a thin smile ii|>on his simperng
lips, the marquis approached the
low thoroughly enraged girl.
"Ah, mademoiselle, I see you do me 1
he honor to recognize me," lie said, >
lowing low, and as it seemed to the
ioor girl, in mockery; "it was I

"Not another word, sir, said llcniette,
(irmly, and at the same time as
hough she believed her wishes would 1

l>e I'resles made no movement to- .
vard giving I he necessary orders, and ,
lenriet I e continued, in a tone of com- t
land:
"Von must do you hear me, sir?
on shall!" and from tones of command
tor voice unconsciously sunk into a
laint, that was at once thrilling and
it ifu1.
It would require something more
han the tone of the voice, touching as
t was, to move the marquis from his
urpose; and with his courtly grace,
rhicli seemed in the present case a
lockery, he said to Hcnriettc:
" Mademoiselle, after all the trouble
/e have taken to bring you here, you
L-aieely suppose we will let you goso
0011!"
For ;i moment I lenriet te regarded
iin earnestly, while the tears, unhiden,
came into her eyes.
"1 see t lie horrible trap you have
lid for me; but vile as you arc, you
an scarcely understand tlx* extent of
our own villainy," said site, in a voice
rliicli she vainly tried to render lirm.
You have separated me from my poor
liild, whose only help in life \ am,
rliose misfortune commands the repect
of criminals, even worse than
ourself. She is dependent on me
lone; wit bout me she can not, take a
ingle step, for she is blind!" and the
rail of ut ter desolation which accotnanied
1 hose words would have touched
he heart of a savage.
"Mind!" they exclaimed, as the
rords arrested the merry laugh and
road jest, while the females expressrl
in their faces the compassion they
ow began to feel for the poor girl.
"Yes, blind and alone!" continued
lenriette. miw nn narriwtnwau Su ?n?

lLensity of her feelings that her
oicc resembled more t he wail of a j
>st soul than anything human.
Alone in Paris, without money,
hthout help, wandering tlirough the s
Lreets, sightless, homeless, wild with
espair!"
The picture wliielt her mind had
[injured up was too much for IlenIctte;
she could control herself no
ingcr, and she hurst into a flood of
sars.
"What will become of her?" she
ibbed, to herself, and with the (plosion
came again the maddening
bought that she was powerless to asIst
to her, and she turned again to
he almost stupefied revelers.
"She is blind!" repeated llcnrlctte,
ith vehemence. "Gentlemen, do
on hear me? She is blind!"
"Oh, this is too horrible!" exclaimrl
the Chevalier do Vaudrey, who,
till seated by the table, was greatly
loved by Henrietta's words of de[>alr
and entreaty.
The marquis read from the faces of
is guests that their sympathies were
olng out toward his victim, and as
ir as Ills small soul would permit he
ccame generous.
"Oh, well, compose yourself, madenoisclle,"
he said, in a studied voice.
'I will give orders to have search
nade for her. My people will tlnd
ler and bring her here."
"liring her here!" exclaimed Hen iettc,
while all the anger of her gendc
nature was aroused by tiie insulting
proposal. "She in this house?
never!" Then clasping he hands, she
isked, piteously: "Is this the only
inswer you have to my prayer?"
The poor girl saw no signs of relenting
on the cold, hard face before
lier, and with all the dignity and pasdon
of a pure woman who is insulted,
die turned for a last appeal to those
around her.
"Is there no one here," she asked,
"who dares to raise a voice against
this man?"
"You are mistaken, mademoiselle,"
said l)c l'resles. iti a voice which he
vainly endeavored to make dignified.
"We are all noblemen and gentlemen."
The utter hollowness of these terms,
as used by the marquis, in comparison
with his present mode of action,
aroused all of the chevalier's scorn
and contempt.

Just raising to his lips, to the ground,
and arose to his feet.
"Then among all these noblemen
and gentlemen," once more appealed
llcnriette, "Is there not one man of
honor?"
"There Is, mademoiselle," exclaim
cd De Vaudrcy, going toward her with
an angry Hush upon his face, caused
by Do I'rosles' brutal conduct. "Take
my hand: wo will leave this place."
"Oh, thank you? thank you, monsieur,
a thousand thanks!" exclaimed
llcnriette, as she took the prolTered
hand and grasped It fervently, as a
drowning man would the friendly
rope thrown to save him.
The marquis was so astonished by
De Yaudrey's Interference, that for a
moment lie was unable to oiler any
objection to this answer to his victim's
prayer, and the chevalier had
conducted llcnriette nearly to tin*,
garden entrance before De I'rcsles recovered
from ids stupor.
lie rushed in front of the two, and
barred their exit.
"Excuse me, Chevalier, tills is my
house," lie said.in a voice hoarse with
rage, "1 do not permit
"(live me room, sir," said De Vaudrcy,
in a haughty voice.
"I will not allow this Insult. Do
you hear?" he exclaimed, as the loud
chimes of a clock proclaimed the hour
of midnight. "After twelve o'clock no
one ever leaves this house."
% "Then we shall he the first to do
so," answered DcVaudrcy, In a cool
tone. "Stand aside, sir."
"Do you know, Chevalier," said the
marquis, white and trembling with
rage,"thatyou speak to me as though
1 were your lackey."
"I would not speak to a lackey who
acted as you do," replied the chevalier,
in a contemptuous tone, "1 would
cane him."
"Enough, monsieur; you are more
than Insolent!" exclaimed 1 >e l'resles
drawing his sword and standing on
the defensive. "Attempt to pass
inc "
"I certainly shall," interrupted Do
Vaudrcy. "and this young lady with
me."
llenriettc clung to the arm of her
protector In affright, while the other
occupants of the garden gathered
around the two men, and vainly attempted
to quell the Impending duel.
"Stand back, gentlemen," commanded
the martinis, in a rough voice.
"After such an insult, there Is but
me course!" and stepping into a clearid
space at the back of the garden, he
awaited t he chevalier.
Pale with terror, llenriettc saw
these preparations; but she could only
ilasp her hands, and with a whispered
prayer to Iiim who said, "Thou shalt
tot kill," breathlessly awaited the remit
of the duel.
Both men were experienced swordsuen;
but from the tirst I)e Vaudrey

uis.
At length a lunge more careless
,han the others gave the chevalier the
ipportunity he awaited, and with a
juick, rapid thrust, he ran his sword
hrnugh the body of his antagonist.
The marquis reeled for a moment
is the sword was withdrawn, and then
vith a low groan sunk into the arms
.hat were outstretched to receive

Without deigning to cast a look up)n
his fallen foe, l>e Vaudrey raised
lis hat with courtly grace, and oll'erid
his hand to llenriette, who was alnost
bewildered hy the rapidity with
vldch the combat had been llnlshed.
Never before had she seen a human
icing stricken down hy a violent
leath. and she could not refrain from
lasting a compassionate look upon the
jody of the young man who had so
ately been her worst enemy, hut
vhose life blood was now slowly wellng
out from the narrow wound in the
:hcst, and dropping upon the gravelid
walks.
Do Vaudrey took the girl's hand
