The Lie Tony Told
t
?
^?t?M li I il I.I.I y-f-g ?A
I h.id known Jacques do Kerou
iilles at Fontainebleau years before
the war, and when he was brought
into my little field hospital amid
the luxuriunt vineyards of Marly
sur-Seine, only a few* miles from the
edge of the great forest, he recogniz
ed me at otice. It was early morn
ing. Indeed the dawn had scarce
come, and the river below us was
pearly gTay in thc growing light, as
rivers arc before sunrise.
tfUAnglais I" he cried joyously,
for De Keroualles was a merry soul.
He raised his blood stained bund in
a gay salute. I make no doubt he
had fought bravely and in a manner
worthy of the old blood in his veins.
He was wet through and covered
with dirt. The battle had taken
place on the previous afternoon, and
the wounded were consequently al
lowed to lie out on the fields the
whole night. "Lo petit jeune
homme," he added, "we meet
again."
Then he fainted, with a smile on
bis lips. It is only in books that
men die different from what they
have lived. It did not take me long
io look ot this gay youth's wound,
cutting away his English made lin
en, slicing the cloth of his rough
.uniform of a private soldier of the
lArmy of the Seine-a mere band of
.volunteers despite their grand name.
I knew a s?minariste in it-not yet
ordained a priest-who fought
bravely through, it, although ho
lacked the strength to hold his rifle
straight without a support.
I saw at once that the career of
Jacques de Keroualles was nearly
over.
Suddenly it all came back to me
Fontainebleau and the happy, care
less, reckless life in thc old town
j?here the very paving stones are
salarated with hisiory and worn hy
?he tread of those that made it.
Jacques de Keroualles; Tony,
jtVicomte de Muy; Raoul de Kolles,
?and half a dozen others-harum
scajum fellows who made life one
3ong laugh.
How often had we shouted the
one line chorus in the Rue de
France as the slow morning crept
wp thc sky behind the palace!
I rose from the wounded man's
side and went out to the veranda of
?the villa, converted into a temporary
.field hospital. A cavalry officer in
?the gay blue uniform of his im
mortal r?giment, with a short, fur
itrimmed cape thrown carelessly
?back from the shoulder, stood mood
ily looking down over the vineyards.
.He turned at the sound of my foot
steps and shook hands gravely. I
looked hard at him. It was Tony
?de Muy-a grizzled, hard faced sol
dier.
"Well?" he asked. Hi looked into
my face sharply and made a gri
mace.
"You need say nothing. I see
from your face."
He threw away a half burned ciga
rette and resumed his attitude of
gloomy reflectiveness. I had known
.him a young man a few years' ear
lier and, glancing at him, wondered
?whether I looked aa middle aged as
that.
"The devil take all women!" he
suddenly exclaimed with his absurd
(French vivacity and stamped his
spurred heel on the tessellated pave
ment. "The devil take all women,
mon ami!"
"He will have as many as he can,
manage," I suggested, for I was
groung in those days, and the little
?wound I still carry had a smart in
?t yet.
"You remember my sister?" To
ity said curtly, and I nodded. We
)had all been in love with Milo, de
?Muy, and she had managed in some
?way to keep us all in hand at once.
|She was fresh from a convent,
??where, it seems, these little arts
must be acquired. Thc '"botte" that
jgave me my own hurt was, hy tho
iway, learned there. So far as Jacques
'de Keroualles had been concerned,
[however, we hedalways known that
it was a serious matter,
i /'Before the war," Tony de Muy
Sent 0D,*'they were engaged. Then
acques joined the army. What else
?could he do? As for me, I had al
ays been in it, as you know.> It is
br our country, and Jacques was
tmong the first. It is for our poor
France that some of us fight for
hese " Napoleons."
,He turned and looked into tho
room where the cots were rang
in ranks;-head and foot-tho
ength of the floor.
} '?He thinks that she has kept her
sword," ne said, and I wondered how
?a' few y ears' service could have hard
ened him.
! ?And?"
! "And she is nancee to some Ital
San conni-some scum of Borne
mho doubtless wears high heeled
boots and paints his face, aa I have
tseen them/'
In his heat he spoke too loudly,
and Jacoues de Keroualles, lying in
.thai quiet room? recognised the
voice, though he could not possibly
ha*ve distinguished the words.
"Is that thou, Tony ?" called out
the cheery' voice from within. It
was impossible to realize that these
were the tones of a dying man. I
have seen two die laughing, both
Frenchmen.
'-Yes," answered the man by my
ride.
We entered the room together.
De Keroualles smiled when he saw
ns side by judo, Tony de Muy tower
:fc]ffa.bqve me? .
'"Ahr he .rica. "It is like old
times!"
I made shift to smile, but the
white look was airead)- about his
lips. I wished that I could get
away.
"Seo you, Tony," he said, with a
sudden change to gravity which had
always been characteristic of him.
English people, and there are al
ways a few living at Fontainebleau,
thought De Kerouailes very French.
"See you, tho good God wants me.
What will you? We must be satis
fied."
Tony held his lip with his teeth
and made no answer.
"If I could have seen Renee,"
murmured tho dying man, with a
wistful look at rae. In books men
invariably seem to die satisfied. In
my experience they have always
wanted something I could not give
them.
"The young man looks grave," he
laid. "Ah, yes, I know. We were
to have been married, mon ami.
That is all."
Then he lay still for a minute or
so.
"I wonder if she loves me," he
said in a weaker voice, with a calm
assuranco characteristic * of his na
tion, which has no awkwardness
where we are self conscious and shy.
"Not a doubt of it," answered
Renee's brother steadily.
And the dying man's eyes lighted.
If I could tell all that I have seen
compassed by a woman's love be
hind her back I should be disbeliev
ed. Thc best stories are rarely told.
"At last!" whispered De Kerou
ailes.
"At last," was the unflinching re
ply
"Tell me," went on the dying
man. "Did she sav so?"
"Yes."
"What did she say?"
The Vicomte de Muy looked in
ray face and breathed heavily. As
for me, I looked out of the window.
"Did ehe? say she would be con
tent to marry me?"
"Yes, quito content."
"And more-beyond, I mean ? All
of it ? I am the last of the De Ke
rouailes,' you know."
And I heard the first catch in his
breath.
"Yes, all of it," answered De
Muy, who had two little sons at
homo in the' south.
"She wanted that also?"
"Yes, she wanted that also."
There was a silence. Thc sun
was now rising behind the pine trees
on thc other bank of the river. Its
golden light showed that on the face
of Jacques de Kerouailes which had
not hitherto been noticeable. He
was dying of an internal "bleeding
which art was powerless to stop.
He looked at rue.
"So; young man," he said with
his wonderful gayety, "you ?ee life
has been worth the living, after all.
To have won that, although it is
BO soon lost."
Tony de Muy was looking at me
across the cot with an expression
which reminded me of my first oper
ation.
Jacques de Kerouailes did not
sneak again, and the smile slowly
chilled, as it were, on his waxen fea
tures. Da Muy failed for some time
to realize that his friend was dead.
Then he suddenly perceived it, and
his grim face relaxed.
"God forgive mel" he muttered,
and pressing my hand he strode oui
of the room. His horse was waiting,
and I heard him clatter away to tho
front, where the fighting had begun
again.-Henry Seton Merriman in

Very thin as well as very portly mea
are sometimes placed io embarrassing
positions by their excess or lack of

thinness, 'hieb is made more appar

Several days ago, during his absence,
a match boy called at his house, was
admitted, taken into the back office,
and the doctor's wife bought some of
his stock. The money was in a closet
in company with an articulated skele
ton, which was disclosed as soon as
the door was opened.
The boy took one look at the grin
ning horror, and fled from the house,
leaving both money and matches.
This was related to the doctor, and
several days afterward the same boy
was seen passing the house.
On the doctor's attention being
oalled to the fact, he went to tho
door and beokoned the lad to oome to
him. Holding his angers to his j
nose in a very expressive but vulgar
mauner, tho matoh boy shouted out:
"Not much, you big old skeleton 1
I knows yer, even if you has got on
yer clothes!"
The Decoy Half Crown.
John Peroival, Bishop of Hereford,
attended the International Peace con
gress in Boston. A lifelong friend of
the prelate's said of bivi with a smile:
When Dr. Percival lived in Birming
ham he went one Sunday to preach in
a village on the Humber.
"The village church was small, and
only ono person was needed to take up
thc collection. This person, an aged
man with an intelligent faoc, passed
up and down the aisles with the col
lection basket, and at the end, came
into the chancel and advanced to lay
the money on the sacrament table. As
be came forward with his back to the
congregation he did a dreadful thing.
From the collection, which was unusu
ally generous, he took a silver half
crown, and this coin ho slipped quiet
ly into his pocket.
"No one had seen him but Dr. Per
cival. Dr. Percival was horrified, but
he said nothing. As he preached the
perfidirus old man sat and listened
with a righteous air. The minister
could soarcely refrain from denounc
ing him.
"At the sermon's end the old man
was the first to offer his congratula
tions.
"An excellent sermon, sir,' he said.
'The people of Birmingham are to be
envied.'
" 'I wish to speak to you,' said Dr.
Percival. 'I wish to see you alone.
Wait for me.'
"The old man waited, and after the
little ehuroh had emptied itself, Dr.
Peroival said:
" 'I saw you take a half orown
from the oolleetion basket. Why did
you do it?'
"The old man smiled.
" 'Is that what waB worrying you,
sir?' he said. 'Well, make your mind
essy. That half crown has done duty
this many a year. I keep it to put in
the basket first, and then our town's
rioh men, seeing a poor ohap like me
put in a half orown, oan't for shame
give less.' "
Remarkable Feat.
The great event at Cheyenne this
year was tho remarkable feat of Will
Piokett, a negro, hailing from Taylor,
Texas, who gave his exhibition while
20,000 people watched wit*) wonder
and admiration a mere man, unarmed
and without a device or appliance of
any kind, attack a fiery, wild-eyed and
powerful steer and throw it by his
teeth. With the aid of a helper,
Piokett ohased the steer until he was
in front of the grand stand. Then he
jumped from the saddle and landed on
the back of the animal, grasped its
horns, und brought it to a stop within
s dosen feet. By a remarkable dis
play of strength he twisted the steer's
head until his nose pointed straight
into tho or, the animal bellowing
with pain and its tongue protruding
in its effort to secure air. Again and
again the negro Was jerked from his
feet and tossed into the air, but his
grip on the horns never onoe loosened,
and the steer failed in its effort to
gore him. Cowboys with their lariats
rushed to Pickett's assistance, but the
action of the combat was too rapid
for them. Before help oould be
given, Piokett, who had foreed the
steer's nose into the mud and shut off
its. wind, slipped, and was tossed
aside like a piece of paper. There
was a scattering of cowboys ss .he
jumped to his feet and ran for his
horse. Toking the saddle without
touching tho stirrups, he ran the steer
to a point opposite the judge's stand,
again jumped on its back, and threw
it. Twice was the negro lifted from
his feet, but bo held o a with the
tenacity of a bull dog. Soddenly
Piokett dropped the steer's head and
grasped the upper lip of the animal
with his teeth, threw his arms wide
apart, to show that ho was not using
his bauds, and sank slowly upon his
bt-sk. The .steer lost its footing and
rolled upon his back, completely cover
ing die negro's body with his own.
The crowd was speechless with hor- j
ror. many believing that the negro
had been crushed; but a second later ?
tho steer rolled to ita other side, and
Pi?kett arose uninjured, bowing and
smiling.-Harper's Weekly.

Bishop P? F Stevens of South Caro
lina was urging on a young man the
other day the importance of self-ap
preciation, says the Boston Post.
"To think too little of yourself," he /
said, "is quite as harmful as to think
too much. Modesty and humility are
all very well in their way, but there
is great danger, by overdoing them,
of oreating a Uriah Heep impression."
Bishop Stevens laughed quietly.
"I ooce knew a young minister,"
he said, "who was extravagantly mod
est and humble.
"Ono Qhriatmas Eve his congr?ga
tion oalled at the parsonage and pre
sented him with a plush armchair.

"But he could proceed no further.

An Exasperated Landlord.
A tale comes from the Nutmeg State
of a man who traveled muoh and was
well known wherever he wont by ho
tel men and others as a "proverbial
kicker." Nothing was ever good
enough or bad enough, hot enough or
cold enough, rioh enough or poor
enough for him. Ooe day he went to
one of the best hotels in the State and
put up for the night. His fame had
preoeded him, and tho landlord gave
orders to high and low to serve him
with the best, and to wait on him with
alaority. His wishes were all antici
pated that night, and he went to bcd
as happy as a man like him could be
with nothing to growl about. In thc
morning extra pains were taken with
his breakfast, after whioh lae land
lord went and inquired if everything
was all right, adding that he trusted
his breakfast had been satisfactory.
"Well, it was fair," admitted the
guest, "but I like a breakfast to be
hot. This wasn't hot enough."
"Very well, sir," responded the ex
asperated landlord, "wo have dono
our best for you. There is, however,
only ono plaoe so hot your breakfast
would be sure to please you. You'd
better go there." And walked off.
A Little too Tight.
One of "Joe" Blackburn's friends
tells a story whioh dates baok to the
time when that distinguished gentle
man was rather a dandy in the fashion
of a forgotten period. He ordered a
pair of trousers from his tailor, and
he expressly stipulated that they
were to be skin tight. The trousers
came home, and the senator tried
them on. Ho went right to the tailor
and opened fire on him.
"What in the Kentuoky-syncnymfl*
for places-not-on-the-map do you
mean by sending me trousers like
that?" ha shouted.
"Why, you said to make them skin
tight," said the tailor.
''Skin tight!" yelled the senator.
"Yes, by this-and-that, I said skit
tight. I wanted them merely skin
tight. I can sit down in my skin and
1 can't in these."-Washington Post.
