"He attributed it I believe, to a po

"I suspected so myself st first snd

dear M. Bonadeux has not then, for

"8o far from It madame, he was too
proud of your pradeaoe and particu

"I took sdvaatoge of a moment at
which tbsy left me alone, and aa I
knew from this morning what to think
of my abduction, with the help of the

hither to Inform him."
"Of what!"
"Oh, that Is not my secret! I must
not therefore* tell you."
"Besides," said D'Artagnan—"pardon

mind yon of prudence—besides, 1 be

place for imparting confidences. The

Mends, but who knows whether they
may be at home?"
"But whither eball we fiy? Whither
escape to?"
"Let us in the first place get away
from this house. When clear of it we
shall see."
And the- young woman and the
young man, without taking the troubls
to ehut the door after them, descend
ed the Rue des Fossoyeurs rapidly,
turned into the Rne dee Foeaes-Mon

they cams to the Plsce St Snlplce.
"And now what are we to do, and

"Young man." laid he to D'Arta

you. Have you any friend whose
clock Is too slow?"
"What then?"
"do and call upon him la order that
he may give evidence of your having
been with him at half past a In a
court of JusUce that la called an allbL"
D'Artagnan found his advice pru
dent Ha took to his heels and was
soon at M. de Trevllle's. But Instead
of passing to the saloon with the rest
of the world he required to be Intro
duced to M. de Trevllle's closet A
servant Went to Inform M. de Ttwrllle
that his young compatriot having
something Important to communicate,
solicited a private audience. Five
minutes after U. de Trevllle waa ask
ing D'Artagnan what he could do to
serve him and what caused his visit
at BO late an hoar.
"Pardon me, monsieur," said D'Ar
tagnan, who had profited by the mo
ment he had been left alone -to pat
back M. de Trevllle's clock three-quar
ters of an hour, "but I thought as It
waa yet twenty minutes past 9 It was
not too late to wait upon you."
•TTwenty minutes past 81" cried M.
de Trevllle, looking at the clock.
"Why, that's lmpoeslbte!"
"Look, rather, monsieur," said D-Ar
tagnan, "the clock ahows It"
"That's true," said M. de TraVflle.
"I should have thought It had b«sn
later. But what can Ido for you?"
Then D'Artagnan toM H. de Tre
vllle a long story about the queen.
Ho ax pressed to him the fears he en
tertained with roopoet to ber majesty.
He related to him What be-MM beard
of the projects of the cardinal with
regard to Book Ingham, and all with a
tranquillity and ooieusilcoa -Of which
M. de Trevllle was the merO'tbadhpe
from having himself, as -we have said,
observed something fresh between the
cardinal, the king and the queen.
As 10 o'clock was striking, D'Arta
gnan left M. de Trevllle, who thanked
him for his information, recommended
him to have the aervice of-the 'Msg
sad queen always at heart-and re
turned to the saloon. But at the foot
of the stairs D'Artagnan remembered
he had forgotten his cane, -fie conse
quently sprang up again, re entered the
closet snd with a turn of his finger
set the dock right again.
# CHAPTER VIII.
The Met Thioksna.
HIS visit to M. da Trevllle being
paid, D'Artagnan took his pen
sive but longest way home
ward. He was thinking of
Km Bonacleux. He already fancied
himself, so rapid la the progress of onr
dreams upon the wings of Imagination,
accosted by a measenger from the
young woman who brought him some
billet appointing a meeting, a gold
chain or a diamond.
Men then made their way In the
world by the means of women with
out blushing. Buch as were only beau
tiful gave their beauty. Such as were
rich gave In addition a part of their
money.
D'Artagnan possessed nothing. The
mercer had told him he was rich; tha
young man might easily guess that
and with so weak a man as M. Bona
deux It was most likely the young
wife kept the purse. But all tills bad
no Influence upon the feeling produced
by the sight of Mme. Bonacleux and
interest remained nearly foreign to this
D'Artagnan, disposed to become the
most tender of lovers; waa at the time
' a very devoted friend. He did not for
get his friends. The pretty Mme. Bo
badeux waa Just the woman to walk
with In company with Athoa, Forthos
and Aramls, to whom D'Artagnan
would be so proud to display such a
conquest Besides, on presaing occa
sions, In extreme difficulties. D'Arta
gnan would become the preserver of
hts Mends.
And It Bonadeux. whom D'Arta
gnan had pushed Into the hands of the
police, denying him aloud, although be
had promised In a whisper to savs
Mm We are compelled to admit to
onr readers that D'Artagnan thought
nothing about him In any Way.
D'Artagnan, reflecting on bis future
loves, sddresstog himself to the beau
tiful night and smiling at the stars,
resscended the Rue Oherche-Midl or
Obssse-Mldt, as It wss then called. As
he found himself in the quarter la

Still more, the Hgbt which ted ahoM

D'Artaguan thought thla could not

He waa right At the end of some eec
ondi two eharp tape were heard In tbe

Unfortunately the light had been to

eyee of tbe young man were aocmatom

D'Artagnan then aaw that the young
woman took from her pocket a white
object, which she unfolded quickly
and which took tbe form of a hand
kerchief. Bhe made her Interlocutor
observe the corner Of ihla unfolded ob
ject.
"What could that handkerchief
mean?" ,
Placed where he waa D'Artagnan
could not perceive the face of Aramla.
W« eay Aramla becanae the youag
man entertained no doubt that It was
Ida friend who held this dialogue from
the interior with the lady 6t the ex
terior. He placed hlmaelf cloee to the
Jangle of tbe wall, from which his eye
could plunge Into the intertor of the
apartment
Upon gaining thla advantage D'Arta
gnan wae near uttering a cry of sur
prise. It was not. Aramla who waa
conversing with tbe nocturnal visitor;
It waa a woman) D'Artaguan. how
wver, could only eee enough to recog
nise the form of her vsutments, not
enougb to distinguish bar features.
At tbe aame Instpnt the woman of
the apartment drew a second handker-
I chief from her pocket and exchanged
i It for that which bad Juet been shown
to her. Then some words www pro
nounced by tbe two women. At length
the ahutter wax cloaed. The woman
who waa outside tbe window turned
round and paaaed within four atepe
of D'Artagnan. pulling down the hood
of ber cloak, but tbe precaution waa
too late. D'Artagnan had already
recognized me. Bonacieuxl ,

in order to be reconducted to tbe
Louvre, aboold be running about the
etreeta of Porta at half paat 11 at night
at tbe rink of being carried off a sec

It must be. then, for some affair of

But was It oo ber own account or on
