CHAPTER XXXV.
TO AVOID SUSPICION.
Twelve miles across those drear, solitary
landes was a strange journey for a young girl
to make at night, yet In their very desolation
lay her socurity.
No living thing that could harm her crossed
her path, though with held - breath and quick-
ened step she sped past the long stretches of
gloomy rushes swaying softly in the breeze aud
showing startling shadows, in contrast to the
bright patches of moonlight.
After all the mighty solitudes of the Tyrol,
the Alp npon Alp in their pure garment of
snow, that reared their ice-dlademed brows to
the heavens, so grand, so alone, had accustom-
ed Hermino to scenes devoid of human life,
while what sho fled from had a greater terror
for her.
Eponine had related all she knew; but, while
it told Hermlne how grossly sho had been de-
ceived, the count had answered all those
charges as fully as he had one. It was to save
her from the knowledge of Cyril Hargrave's
guilt. In that guilt Hermine fully believed.
How could Bhe do other)
Could she disbelieve those papers? Impossi-
ble. Could she disbelieve, when Cyril had
been so overwhelmed by, but never denied, the
charge of guilti Still, had she needed greater
I proof yet, Eponine unconsciously had given it
her.
Tho girl had recounted the duel on the sands,
and Hermine had been forced to see justice in
it. In the count's behavior, contempt of a
murderer. Nevertheless Bhe had been glad to
hear that Cyril lived and had been rescued.
Then Eponine, believing she was speaking of
one most dearly loved by her companion, told
how, in examining the wound and giving Cyril
air, she had seen a chain about his neck; how,
being curions, she had drawn it out, and found
attached a closed locket. Bhe had opened it
with difficulty—for the case had evidently
been struck by the bullet—and beheld within
Hermine's miniature.
"My miniature!" exclaimed the listener.
"It could not be I"
" Ah, but I have eyes, and it was," responded
Eponine. " It is your image, only you look
there younger, brighter. There were letters,
too, upon the case."
"Letters!"
"Yes. Let mo see—L—yes, one was L—'L.
DuV,;' yes, that was it!"
Hermine gave a low, bitter, passionate crv,
and flung herself on the bed. There could be
no doubt now. The locket had been Leon's.
He who had killed him was wearing it. What
mattered to her whether Cyril lived or died
after that? The count had said tho law had
set him free for want of proof. What greater
needed they than this?
Ob, that she hail died, as had her father,
under that first terrible grief! Why had she
lived, only to ba overwhelmed with sorrow.
To her the world seemed full of it.
She was aroused by Eponine's voice.
"You see how he loves you, Hermine! " she
remarked. " That is why the count would
ta\e shot him, and drowned him too. Ho
fays you shall be his wife and nobody else's'
His wife—what a fate?"
" He can not force me to be, Eponine!"

«ocd Heawonw Why You Should Travel

Because it takes less time and cost3 less
money than lines via New York, and is tho
only line over which through cars are run,
without change, between Sfc. Louis and Boston
via New York Central and Boston and Albany
railroads.
To Aew York.
Because passengers hoktlnc; Bee line tickets
have no cbaDge of cars between St. Louis and
New York, and arc landed in the Grand Cen-
tral depot, Na» York city,absolutely avoiding
all transfers and ferries, saving time, annoy-

Can't hei You don't know him. I over-
heat d him once say to madame that you should
never leave Loiret la Belle until you were his
wife!"
"Is this trne, Eponinei" said the other,
possessed by a now terror.
" Am 1 not telling you the truth-tilling
you all I know—because I hate the count! 1
heard him, I tell you, laugh and declare
Honey was better than vinegar.' That his
plan was the best to bring you round. It
would be ruin to him if you were not his
wife."
Hermino covered her face to hide her emo
tlon. There was something derogatory, hu-
miliating in being thus trapped into a mar-
riage. Besides tbat, the old loathing, terror
of Eugene had returned with redoubled
strength. No, marriage in any case was
not for her now.
" Eponine," she said, lifting her white face
and speaking very flrmly, " 1 will never wed
the count!"
Eponine shrugged her shoulders.
"You say so. How can you help it
Haven't you promised! Will not M. le cure
be here to-morrow! What can you do against
the count and madame? Bah!"
" Oh that Estelle were here! " moaned Her-
mino, piteously. "Eponine, aid me. What
would you do?"
" Go to Estelle; she will never bo allowed to
come to you."
"Go to her! She is at Paris! "
"Well, Paris is not tho other side of the
worid; it is in France. A child's feet even
could walk it in time. Beside, yon can get to
seme town where there are convents; or the
cure would help you."
Hermine sprang up, and caught the speak-
er's hand in hers.
" 1 never thought of that. Eponine, dear
Lponine, you have saved me! I will not wait
for to-morrow—I dare not! I will go to-
night!"
Thus it was that Hermino was flitting at that
hour over the heaths in the moonlight—the
only sound disturbing the stillness being the
regular break of the waves on the far shore.
It was long after midnight when Hermino,
weary and depressed—for care is the convict's
chain to the heart—looked down into the dip
in the land where the small town to which Eu-
oplne had directed her, lay sleeping.
So far as she could see no light burned any-
where. Slumber lay on all, At that hour it
wes to be expected; but the girl shivered, and
tears rose to her eyes at the idea of the dreary
time she must remain there waiting.
It she could but lie down to sleep and never
wake again, then slumber on those heaths
would have no terror for her.
Before deciding to rest she stole nearer the
little town. There was companionship in the
closer vicinity of the sleepers, for the moon
was sinking, and soon the landes would ba
wrapped in the darkness which precedes dawn.
bhe had approached the first group of sim-
ple dwellings when she stopped, shrinking
back in the deep shadow which lay in the hol-
low In the window of a small dwelling de-
tached from the rest she had perceived a
light, while along the primitive street or space
between the houses she heard a step advanc-
ing.
Was it any one to whom she might appeal
fcr aid—shelter?
1 he tread grew louder. A figure came out
cf the darkness. Was it man or woman! Sbe
ccnld not tell, it was so shapeless.
It stepped at the gate leading into the small
garden cf the house where burned the light,
and lifted its heBd, which previously must
have been drooped on the chest. Then the
form took individuality. Heraiice recognized
the long soutane, the hat of a cure.
R ith a joyous cry she ran forward, failing
on her knees beforo him.
"Oh, my father, Rid mo! " he cried. " For
the love of the Virgin help me, for lam in sore
distress!"
Then her strength failed, and she sank in-
sensible at his feet.
"Holy Bte. Barbare, what is this?" ex-
claimed tho good roan, aniazed.
steeping, he saw the slight figure, tho dark
garments, the pale, sad, joung face, about
which the goiden hair fell so softly.
No appeal for aid was ever made to Father
lUronx in vain. He was elderly but vigorous,
liaising Hermine in his arms, supporting her
against his shoulder, he hastened to* tho
presbytere, opened it, and entered the room
where the light burned. The rays came from
a lamp standing on tabid whereon a frugal
supper was laid.
Piecing Hermine on a chair, the cure went
again into the tiny passage and ca'led up the
stair to his servant:
"Suzanne—Suzanne! Rise, my good wo-
man! There is a poor girl needing thy help
sr.d mine. Come, my good woman—some!"
" I come, M. le cure, I come," answered a
voice from above.
often rising to look in the direction of P.mn'are,
wonderingmnch—wondering if Hermine had
arrived. Wondering what would happen on
the morrow at Loiret la Belle when her flight
was discovered, and beginning to feel fright-
ened lest the part she had played in it should
be suspected. She also wondered how Troadeo
had fared, and longed for the news he would
bring.
Of the Loiret household Nanette was always
the first to descend; later, Eponine. On this
especial morning there was no difference,
h-ponine, coming down, passod through the
kitchen and found Nanette hard at work.
' We must make all bright for M. le cure "
remarked tho servant. "There isn't much of
a wedding feast, though, Is there?"
"Is the wedding to be to-day!" asked Epo-
nine. shortly.
<19^ four8®- At least M. le cure comes,
and madame is all haste to get to Paris."
Well, it doesn't matter to me," responded
Iiponine, passing on and quitting the house.
r.poiiine made her way to the shore. The
sea was coming in, but she was able to reach
the spur of the cliff that jutted into the water.
Mere between two jagged pieces of rock she
drew one of Hermine's handkerchiefs. In a
small hollow olose by she placed a key.
She smiled cunningly and with infinite satis-
faction as she completed the task.
"They will believe she has drowned herself
because of her love for him," she murmured
as she returned to the chateau. " I could have
nothing to do with that."
She was only in time, for the count and
madame were both earlier this morning.
Eugene de Montevin was naturally anxious.
Madame Valerie scarcely less so. Eponine
took her usual place by the window. The count
£aced to and fro regardless of her. When
lad am e V alerio entered he turned quickly and
addressed her:
" Have you seen Hermine!"
" Not yet. It is early.»
" Still, there is no time to be lost. The cure
will be here very soon."
"Eponine, go and see if Mademoiselle du
V erne is rising," said madame.
Eponine disappeared.

"Yes. We must persuade, shame, or force

Before an hour Cyril's wound had been
dressed, though the doctor looked grave, and
refused a decided answer when questioned
about recovery. He averred that the bullet
had been stayed from a fatal course by a mlra-
X". A miracle, however, that might be ex-
plained by the indentation on the locket.
Once during the examination Cyril
awakened to consciousness.

"Indeed you have I" exclaimed madame.
Ihe count and Bhe had exchanged uneasy
glances, then Bhe added, " 1 will go myself."
The count was nneaBy, and followed to the
foot of the stairs. Very soon Madame Valerie
was knocking almost as loudly as had Eponine.
while she called:
''Hermine, why do you not answer, my
child? Are you ill! Tell me what has hap-
pened!" r
Still no answer. Eponine and Nanette ap-
proached the foot of the stairs, looking with
surprised query into each other's eyes as the
count sprang up to tho corridor.
"Eponine is right," said madame. "She
does not respond."
" Open the door!"
"I can not; it is locked."
There was alarm in both faces now.
"Hermine, my cousin," called the count,
reply. You terrify us by this silence. We
must break open the door! "
No answer
The count—the dark, ominous expression
deepening on his handsome features—drew
back, then brought all his weight against the
• with a crash. He staggered
in, to find the suspicion that had dawned upon
Lim realized. The room was empty; the bad
Lad not been slept in.
The two stood aghast, regarding each other
' She baa gone!"gasped Madame Valerie.
How? Where ?" ejaculated the count.
Both questions were equally difficult to an-
swer.
Madame Valerie rushed to thecommole.
Hermine's clothes were there; only her hat
her mantle had gone Then she ran to the
tioor; it had been locked, but the key was not
there.
She told this to her companion. Hermine
had lied, and laid her plan that her flight
might not soon be discovered.
Yet she could not have gone long. If pur-
sued she must be overtaken; nay, from the up-
P" windows her figure might still be seen on
the heaths.
Tho count proceeded to the highest. No-
no—every side no. No moving, living, human
object.
"Have you had anything to do with this?"
cried Madame Valerie to Eponine.
" With what?" lowered the girl.
"This girl's flight?'
"How could I help her! Why should I!"

demanded Madame Valerie—glad, in the scare,
for propositions from any one.

sullen rejoinder. "I know she often wished

lbs Count had returned, and was listening.
l Heaven !" he cried, reeling back a
step. Then, his face pale, said, hoarsely, " Let
us search the shore."
Two hours waiting for the tide to turn—
waiting that he might And some sign to show
whether his terrible suspicion were true-
aware Hermine had not found shelter in the
hoiulet—blaming himself for having ordered
Robert to return to Paris on th! previous
day — Eugene de Montevin paced the
beach; then, searching, came upon a handker
chief, and near it, in a pool, a key.
The handkerchief bore the initials "H. Du
V.;" the key was that of Hermine's badcham-
ber at Loiret la Belle. There could be no
doubt after that—none.
The next day—the previous one had been
passed in what they felt was useless search—
the count, Madame Valerie, with Eponine and
Nanette, started for Paris.
During the morning Eponine had found
means to visit the hamlet and search the boats
for Troadec's. -It was not there; it had not
returned. Why? Was Cyril Hargraye alive
or dead?
Before noon Loiret la Belle was shut up,
soulless—its desolate rooms echoing to no sound
but the breaking sea.
CHAPTER XXXVI.
DESPAIR.
Troadec, the fisher, had not got far on his
way, when, looking at the inanimate form at
his feet, he began to entertain fears for his
own safety.
Here was a man shot, dying probably—pos-
sibly might be dead before the boat reached
Valines.
Supposing his story was not believed, and he
were arrested for the murder!
He would confess everything of course; then
what about the Count de Montevin! He was
rich, powerful; he might take vengeance.
Besides, Mademoiselle Eponine I Troadec was
not quite certain of her being no changeling
yet. If he toid of her might she not bring
niisfoi tune on bis boat—his fishing' Then how
should he te able to wed Bella next JNoel!
Surely ell this was enough to perplex a sim-
ple, honest, superstitious Breton peasant.
Frequently he stooped over Cyril, relieved
tuat he breathed—though so faintly that each
respiration seemed as though it must be his
last.
Troadec grew more and more nervous; and
as his boat skimmed past the rocky shore he
came to a resolution. About half a mile be-
fore one reachcd Vannes stood the cottage of
Marcof, tho fisher, whose pretty daughter,
Bella, Troadec was to make his wife.
The cottage lay sheltered by a hanging ro.-k;
Troadec cculd easily run his boat into the
creek and get old Marcof'a advice. They would
net mistrust him.
His mind easier, he made for the point, and
soon descried the old fisher seated on tho
beach mending a net; while Bellah, neat and
trim, in the picturesque Breton dress, sat
near, preparing the pottage for dinner.
The Oieeau de Mer was too well known not
to be recognized as it came on cutting the
waters with its somewhat clumsy prow, and
the Marcofs hastened down to meet it.
" ^hy> thou'rt early, my boy!''exclaimed
the old fisher, as the boat was secured.
" There is a reason, Pere Marcof," respond-
ed Troadac, kissing Bellah's soft, firm cheek.
"A good one, I trust!"
"That is how Sainte Anne may determine."
"Eh. Mere iln Dip,,' u-hnt ,'o
Eh, Mere de Dieu! what is here!" inter-
ted Gregoire Marcof. "A dead man!"
e had looked into the boat and seen the
insensible form at the bottom.
" Something like it," remarked Troadec, a3
Bellah bent forward with a low cry of horror,
lieve my Btory!''
Cyril's eyes, with the expression of a wan-
tiering mind, had gazed vaguely at the scene
,! 5rii, ; It was, however, evident that he
read Iroadec's excited face, and devioed hia
meaning. ■
i l^.wasshot—by—the Count de Montovln-—
Wame" said, faintly. "No one is to
His voice trailed away into a whisper—his
eyes closed—he had drifted into unconscious-
neBs again.
The doctor, being a Frenchman, looked np-
on a duel differently from an Englishman. It
was an affair of honor. If Cyril died-woll, it
would have to be reported; if he lived, then In
honor the doctor would keep his secret.
Would he live 1 Certainly,he would not die
for want of careful nursing. The good-hearted
Breton fishers devoted all their time, as they
had their place, to him. Even Pere Marcof—
superior knowledge of the world though he
possessed—had put aside the thought of the
icmuLi(-ration which might anaue.
After days of doubt, of suspense, Cyril's
danger passed. Out of a long sleep, which had
followed delirium, he awoke one evening, and
IB)' gazing at the scene before him, too weak
to wonder, thinking it but the continuation of
a dream.
. 1 be red firelight from the wood, smoulder-
ing on the hearth, shone with a rich, warm
hue on the rude walls on which hung one or
two cheap pre-Rnphaelite scriptural pictures
in black frames, the smoky roof, the earthen
n»cr, and the three figures seated around the
hre—the young manly Troadec ; the bronzed
face of the elder fisher, with the sparse iron-
Bi ay locks falling on tho wrinkled forehead •
ar.d the fresh, bright, pretty face of Ballah
Marcof.
It must be a dream; for, as memory cams
SiOwiy back, how could he account for being
there? Who were these people! Thought was
far too great an undertaking at present, and
before he was aware he slept again.
When once more he awoke it was day, and
lroadec was alone, standing by his side, ready
to answer his questions, difficult to put at flrst,
but mind and voico strengthened as ha pro-
cteded.
Yes!" he exclaimcd. "I remember all
now—all. And so you found me, my good fel-
low—you brought me here—you saveil me'"
I helped, monsieur. It was Mademoiselle
Lponine who found you," replied Troadac, re-
lating what he knew.
He shot me, and wished to drown me," re-
Pf"ted Cyril, to himself. "lean well know
"py- Heaven has beon kinder to me than he.
Oh! Hermine—Hermine—that you should ba
in such hands; that you should have been
made to believe so cruel a tale as that pDured
into your ear. Oh!" aloud, "this wretched,
wretched wound; when will it let me rise?"
" Ke thankful, monsieur,'' said Troadec,
reverently, " that 3 0u will be able to rise at
all."
"I deserve your reproof." rejoined Cyril
pressing hiB hand. "Forgive me! But you
can not tell how I suffer—not bodily—no—that
is little to the trouble of my mind. Ah' were
jou aware, you would pity me at being forced
to lie here helpless, wben every momont is so
precious—when I ought to be in another place
tLen this."
"Pardon, monsieur, but I know; Mademoi-
,, Eponine told me. You love Mademoi-
selle Du Verne !"
"Indeed—indeed, I do! Pardon you? Iain
glad. I am Bure you will feel for me—that
you will aid me! " criad Cyril, eagerly.
" With all my heart, monsieur."
" Ah! how much I am indobted to yon! How
shall I reward you! Troadec, I want to know
how Mademoiselle Du Verne is; I want newa
of her. W ill you—can you bring me it'"
"Yes, monsieur," replied the fisher, hiding
some confusion. " At least, I will try. You
know Loiret la Bello—to get news may be diffi-
cult."
" I am too well aware of that!" ejaculated
Cyril, despairingly. "But-find out-if-if
Maairnoiselle Du Verne has married her
cousin, the Count de Montevin!"
" Yes, monsieur," answered Troadec, re-
lieved. I can, I think, learn that; only you
must be still—you must take rest, or the doc-
tor will scold your nurses. Ah! yes; I will
find out; only monsieur must not be imoatient.
Remember, it needs time; I may be gone a day
or two—it may be three."
"Trust me, my good Troadec—trust me—I
will be patient."
"Bellah," he said, in a low voice, " help me.
W bat am I to tell that poor monsieur? He
wants news from Loiret la Belle! Ho w am I
to tell him she is gone—all have gone-—that
Loiret la Belle is empty!"
Not until Cyril was able to leave his bed,
ami rear of danger was passed, did they let
him know the truth, That Mademoiselle Du
\ cine had fled from Loirtt la Belle, and the
next day the other inmates had quitted it.
Though the nows was a blow to Cyril, he yet
had consolation. If Hermine had fled, she had
net been made the count's wife, Possibly she
he a gone to avoid being forced into such a
lato Ihe belief of Eugene de Montevin that
she had, in her sorrow, taken her life, ho had
communicated to no one, ogngequently that

After a few questions, though weak, ho de-
cided cn his course. He must immediately
procccd to Paris; he must saa Estelle. Her-
mine knew her address, and ino3t surely would
communicate with her at onq ,
Also—the thought made Lis temples b9at
with feverish eagerness—through old Estelle,
his tiii'.nful friend, might ho not explain to
Herrtjine tbo^count's accusation, and prove his
innocence? Never should he know rest—never
happiness—while she, his darling, his beloved,
believed him guilly of that foul crima.
Not jet quite convalescent, Cvril started by
the quickest route possible to Paris. Reach-
ing the capital, ha drove to his bankers,
through them conveying a sum to Troadec
that rendered him tho wealthiest fisher near
Vannes; then he proceeded to Annette
Mirckor.'s.
Eajerly, breathlessly he knocked. There
was a wild hope that Hermine might ba there;
that in a few moments he should sea har.
Ihe door opened; a woman stood waiting to
learn his business.
" I wish to see your sister, Estelle Bran, ma-
dams."
" Monsieur mistakes," said the woman plea-
santly, " I have no sister."
" Are you not Madame Mirchon?" queried
Cyril, a fear falling upon him.
