SYMPATHY AM) M)YK. < Pierre and Jacques returned as soon as the doctor had gone away, and .Iacques, who had waited long for some money, said: "Well, mother, how is business?" This question hud reminded the old woman of the money the doctor had given Louise, and she said quickly as she opened the poor girl's hand with no gentle force: "Yes--yes; what did the doctor give 1 you?" ? "That, madame," replied Louise, as the old hag took the money. This was Jacques'opportunity, ami he was not a man to let such a chance miss him. Before his mother could tell of what amount the coin was, he had taken it from her, and after examining it. exclaimed: "Gold! What thieves these doctor* must be; it's .a gold piece," and he : coolly put it into his pocket, and was about to go away, when his mother 1 cried out: "But that is mine." "Eh? never mind, mother," he said, as he put his arm around her neck, : and forced her to go with him. "I'll treat you to some brandy." "With my own money, brigand." slid the old woman, completely mollified by her son's small show of atl'ection, and perfectly willing to accompany her villain of a son on his orgy. But a thought (if hlionot.c .vii.w. her just as she was leaving, and she turned long enough to say in her shrill, Hilary voice to Louise: "Look you, they will he coming out of the church soon; now sing out loud. No laziness, mind what 1 say, for I'll be watching you." "Yes, madaine," replied Louise, meekly. "Pierre! Where is that la/.y scampV" cried the old woman, who had not' seen the poor cripple who stood in t he angle of one of the huijorhgs, unt tl her voice called hint In come forward. "Here, put luyi on the church steps." "Yes, ly.'ritTier," said Pierre, going' towaj/A the blind girl, thankful of an jyp|H)rtunity even of touching the in^-"r nocent girl s hand. But Jacques was opposed to his <lo_ - ' lug even that, for as Pierre was about to take hold of Louise's wasted hand, he pushed him rudely aside, and in a rough voice, said: "Never mind, Cupid, you need not trouble yourself. I'll take care of her." Louise shrunk from his touch, but never let such t rifles as t hat det or him: in fact, he preferred that even Unsound of his voice should give pain, and taking her rudely by the hand, lie led her to the steps of the church, and stood for a moment looking at her. "Yes?yes," he said, half to himself, "she is devilish good-looking, considering she's blind." "You stay here, and see that no one speaks to her," said the old woman to Hlerre. "I will watch her!" replied thecripple, with a look of devot ion to the poor girl such as one might give to the pie nut- ui i in; imiaonnu. "There's no danger that he'll let anyone run away with her, is there, Cupid?" laughed .1 acq lies, as he started olT with his mot her. For some time after mother and son had gone away, 1 Met re stood gazing on the wasted form of the poor blind girl, while the great tears of sympathy and love filled his eyes and t t ickled down I lis distorted face. Seated upon the cold stone steps, which were covered with snow and ice, and with scanty clothing to shield her from the piercing wind and falling snow, the poor girl shook with the cold like one in an ague lit. It was a sight which cut the honest, tender Pierre to the heart, but yet he had not hing with which to cover her, save llie ragged coat which he wore, and the loss of that would leave his body almost naked. Only for a moment did he hesitate, and then, drawing off the only garment in which there was any warmt h, he went toward Louise. "I am so very cold," shivered the poor girl, as she tried to wrap t he miserable sack she wore more closely around her. Pierre covered her wit h t he coat, and stood exposed to all the merciless fury of the storm, thankful that he was able to do her t his service. "Is that you, Pierre?" asked the young girl. us she felt him covering licr vvitli the garment. "Yes, mam/ellc," replied t lie cripple, i breathing upon his lingers, which were rapidly becoming purple from the intense cold. "Yes, it must be you, 1'ierre, you are the only one who is kind to me. Hut this is your coat," she said, as she felt the garment. "What will you do! without it, Pierre?" "Oh, I'll do very well without it, m&mzelle," replied Pierre, vainly trying to keep ids teeth from chattering, and at the same time telling a falsehood In order to induce the girl to keep the coat. "1 have a jacket. and a woolen waistcoat/, and my oh, that is only my overcoat. Besides, I am very warm, very warm indeed!" Even wliile the honest fellow was speaking,he was obliged to move around l|L: I ? to keep Hit Mood hi circulation. he was so rapidly becoming chilled. "IMerro," said I.oulsc. earnestly, ''without you 1 should die; without your help 1 shouldn't have strength to endure my sufferings." Again the tears came into tlio crlppie's eyes; but tIris time they were tears of Joy as well as sorrow. lie was happy at the words which Louise uttered for they showed him that she thought ol him, depended on hiiu,and Ids heart, which was so hungry for the love of some one, rejoiced. I know thoy make you wroldhGtV' > he said, sadly. "Mv heart bleeds at the sufferings they Inflict on you: hut j I am helpless helpless. I can do nothing nothing!" These despairing words, which the thought oi his own weakness wrung from Pierre s heart, touched Louise i liUJl 11 V ! Ill I <t 1, I r i. .11 liiKiioifni'l I. { , ^ !' .?? ?*.?' v?

"Is your sympathy, your compassion not hing?" siic asked, in a tender voice, and as sile took hold of t lie coat lie had placed upon her shoulders, she added: "l'.ven now 1 have to t hank you. Yes, yotn pity, your kindness sustain nun" As she said this, she arose and took Pierre's hand in her own. In doing so. she touched his arm, which was partly covered hy his thin, ragged shirt, and in an instant she understood what he had done. "Oil, how SGltlsh 1 am!" she said, as she t<x>k the coat from oil' her shoulders. "No no!" cried Pierre, trying to prevent her from doing so, and refusing to take it hack. "Pierre, do take it," she almost fed him. "My dear Pierre, lor my sake take it!'' Pierre could not resist the entreaty, and very reluctantly did lie again put his coat on. "I am not cold now," she said, struggling not to betray the Intense sull'ering which was hers, as tlie chilling stiow again fell upon her almost unprot ected shoulders; "and if 1 were, am 1 not accustomed to sulTeringV hid they not leave mc in the cold garret to starve, because i refused to beg? But, alas! i must beg, ordloand lose all my hope Of seeing my dear llcnrlette once more!" The wail of sorrow which accompanied t lie words so moved Pierre, that for a moment he was unable to speak. "Have you never thought of escaping?" he asked, at last, "lean assist you. Let me inform the police, and t hey will proteel you." "No no," replied Louise, quickly, "you must not. I have thought of it, tint that would deprive me of t he only chance of (hiding my sister. They woidd shut nie up in an asylum for I he blind, and then I should he lost to her forever. Besides. I have an idea thai itistuins inc. and my only hope.

"Ilenriett.e! 'tis I, your sister Louise! Do you not hear me, I lenriet te sister?' " As the poor girl thus repeated the cry which she hoped would lead her to her dear sister, her voice unconsciously arose to a louder pitch, until the last words were uttered with all her strength, and she seemed to think that c\en t here she might he heard hy her sister. At the same time the organ from the church swelled out a hymn of praise to (Jod t hat seemed almost like mockery, for here, at t he very stops of (iod's t emple, was I here not one of 11 is children in deepest despair, who had hoen cursed hy man, and suffering an atlliet ion which (Jod had visited upon her, perhaps for t he sins of her father?

And the poor creature commenced I losing In a low voice just as the richly dressed throng hegan to pour out of church, brushing without thought.the poor blind girl with their elegant rohes. The feeble, hut sweet voice tit traded none of the worshipers; they were so much occupied with thoughts of (}od, which the good priest had instilled Into their minds, that they did not see one of I lis children who was singing her life away. Among the last who came from the house of Hod was the Countess de Llnicres, and upon lit r face was the same look oj' sadness which seemed habitual to it. "I have prayed to Heaven to restore me my child," she said, half to herself. *4 Will my prayer never he answered?" The sad song which Louise was singing arrested her at tent ion, and st Irred strange emotions in her breast. "What a voice! How tender and how sad! It awakens pity akin to pain, (iracious Heaven! what is the meaning of that lixed look?" Antl bending over the poor beggar,she asked: "My child, can you not see me?" " No, madame," was Louise's low, sad answer. "Poor child!" exclaimed the coun1 ("IQ "Do vou pity me, madamc?" and Louise asked t lie quest ion almost won* deringly, little dreaming how much right she had to claim pity and love from the aristocratic lady who was bending over her. As the blind girl spoke she fell, a hard grip upon her arm, and she knew that Mother Frochard was listening to whatever she might say. The Count ess <le Linicrcs saw the hard-featured old hag, as she could not but wonder at the marked contrast between the two. C1IAPTKK XVII. ( IIAUITV ANI? PITY. The blind girl's question, "l?o you pity me, madame?" aroused all the great llood of sympathy which the countess was so well known to have, and it was wit h evident emotion that she answered: "Pity you? indeed, I do, my child!" The words fell with a sweet sound on the poor girl's ears and she stepped nearer the kind lady, regardless of the proximity of t he old hag, who was doIMC ill I in her nnwpi1 l<> mnl/r? ? lw> .-wu-?r young life wretched. 'You pity me because 1 a in blind," she said, in a touching voice. "Alas, inadame, that is not, my greatest misfort one." "What do you mean?" asked the kind-hearted lady, in surprise. "Sneak, child, 1 am rich, perhaps I can--" "All! if I dared!" exclaimed Louise, bracing herself to tell her story to this lady who spoke to her in such pitying accents, and who could do so much toward aiding h*r to find her sister. Hut Mother Frochard, who had heard Louise's words,had no intention of allowing the conversation to proceed ttny further, and she grasped the blind girl's tender arm Ixitwcen her W ^ ? I - ? I illrtl ah<i wicked tinker,4, Indicting a hurt which caused the poor girl to cry out with pain. " Kb eh? what 's It?" asked the old Imp. as she pressed her fat, dirty face (lose to t he aristocrat lo feat ores of t he countess, while her small gray eves watched the lady's face as if to llnd out what Louise liad already told. "Youhave a relative -a mother?" asked t he countess of Louise, utterly ignoring La Frochard's Impertinent int err unt ion. "Mother!" exclaimed the hind girl, in tones of deepest .pair. In that one word all the wretchedness of her hard lot was embodied, and her very sold seemed to go out with the word. Louise had spoken before her torment or could prevent her; hut the old woman avenged herself by another wicked pinch, and at the same time speaking quickly, as if to prevent the lady from noticing the blind girl's tone. " Yes, my beaut Iful lady," she said in Iter shrill, coarse tones, while she screwed her face up into what she inI tended as a most fiUtnblo smile, "she has a good mot her, If I do say so." "Is this your daughter?" asked the countess, in great surprise, as she gazed at the two, now side by side,and compared the slight, shrinking, beautiful girl witli t lie 'fawning, fat and v,l\i <I<IIM<III v, IIM | ||US rmlllll'U IO be the mother of one who resembled her a>. lil I le as do t he angels resemble i hose imps of Satan t hat torment lost i sou Is.

"That is what i lie darling was going to tell you isn't jit, deary? A tierce, sly blow in the back warned t he t rembling Louise \\ hat her fate would be if she did not answer as the old hag told her to; but in spite of the old woman's threats, the poor girl eould not thus tell a falshood, and in addition destroy the faint hope of seeing her sister t hat t he countess's kind words had caused to spring up in her b< tsom. "I I " she stammered in her attempt to reply, but another vicious blow from La IToehard caused her to reel, and almost lose her breath. As if she was alllicled wit h an excess of motherly love, the old woman went toward the trembling girl and under pretence of support tng. took hot by the arm in a manner that caused Louise the most intense pain, and at. the same time almost prevented her from speaking. Then, wit h her false smile and all'ect at ion of tenderness, she asked or, it would seen more proper to say, answered for Louise: "Certainly. Isn't it. so. my dear?" "She seems to be ill, and sulTering," said t lie countess, as she saw how badly the poor girl t rem bled, and at t ri tint ing it to physical weaknesses, rat her t ban einot ion, feared t hat she was sick, and concluded that that was the reason why Louise had not answered her quest ion. " Ah! good, charitable souls like you, my lady, have pity on her," replied the old woman, in her whining voice, that, grated on Louise's ears, and even caused Iter to shrink awav as if in oain. "She has a nice, good home. Haven't you. my dear?" As I he old hag asked t his<|iic\st Ion of Louise she elulehed her more lirmly by the arm, audio alow, hoarse Voice, whispered. "Speak out!" "Yes yes," faltered Louise. fearing lest the countess should begin to have some suspicion of the real state of all'airs, La frochard stepped in front of Louise, and thus proven ted I her from saying anything further. "< Jive t his to your mot Iter, and prav for me." said I he countess, as she handed t he poor girl a gold piece, and entered her sedan chair, and in a few moment s was out of sight. I nt ill lie chair in w hieh the count ess was seated was out of sight. Mot tier ! roc hard watched it narrowly, and sioou 111 ;i moi nerty sort of attitude near lionise: l?nl as soon as the hist one ol the servants in the Do Linicres livery had t urned t he corner, she grasped the money eagerly and with no gent le force. "Ah.alouis, another golden piece! It has boon a good d; y, aft or all." And carefully placing the money in her capacious pocket the old woman looked anxiously around to see which one of the many streets that metal the square ottered the best facilities for her business. At length she decided on her route, and going up to Louise, she seized her roughly by the hand, then gave her arm a pinch by way of reminder, and said, in her hard, stern voice: "Lome on now, and sing out. Sing, I tell you!" Thus commanded, t he poor girl began in a low voice that trembled with suppressed emot ion, and l he t wo walked Slowly away, while the old hag continued b -r shrill, monotonous cry of "Charity, good people, charity for a poor blind girl!" Jacques and Pierre had been silent witnesses of the scene between the countess and Louise, and nothing but the number of people that were passing prevented Jacques adding the louis given by the countess to some liquor-dealer's hoard. When La K roc hard and Louise went on their way Pierre started to follow them, in order that he might have the satisfaction of gazing upon the slight form of the blind girl, if only from a distance; but he was stopped by Jacques' brutal voice: "Stop!" he cried, in an angrg tone, "1 have a word to say to you." Lor an instant t he cripple did not heed the voice: but the thought of what his brother might do caused him to stop, t urn half round, and ask: "What is it?" "1 forbid you to follow Louise!" exclaimed Jacques, in an angry voice. "What you forbid?" asked Pierre, as if he doubted that he had heard aright. "Yes. and forbid von t o mmn n<ini> , ... J V" VV v?VII LI I 1 I I IV of lior!** This t ime Jacques' voice was full of rage, and lie looked as if lie was about to spring upon bis deformed brother, and kill him then and there, because he even dared to cast, his eyes in the direction the blind girl had taken. It was evident that this brute of a man who knew no other pleasure than drinking, or making ot herssulTer, had, in his brutal way, fallen in love with the poor girl, whom he delighted to torment. "Jacques, I can not help it!" said I'Mcrre, In an almost imploring tone. "You would not be so cruel. No no, Jacques. Why tire you so cruel?" "Never mind why; I forbid you, that is enough: if you (tare to disobey mo, I'll break those misshapen legs over again, Cupid!" As he said this, he dealt the poor cripple a cruel blow, which knocked him down, as a mild way of enforcing his commands. "Ah! kill me "kill me, if you will," said Pierre, as lie slowly arose from the ground, and in a low voice he added: "But I do love her, and you can not forbid that." L . I Jacques easl a look of scorn and contempt at the cripple who stood shivering like one in an ague tit, and then lighting an inseparable companion?a short clay pipe moved away in the direction of the nearest cabaret. For a few moments the poor boy, who had been deformed byrthe brother who should have motectec! Instead of beaten him, stood in a dejected attitude. He know full well why Jacques had forbidden him to think of Louise, and hcshudtiored as lie thought of additional cruelty which the poor girl would have to suffer, because of the love which Jacques -cruel, hard-hearted Jacques had conceived for her.
