no " hole party advanced to the mound
beneath which Yermao lay. This hiding
nlace seemed mysterious to them.
P Yegor and the little Pole got down upon
their knoes and scraped away the snow
-ith their hands, while M. Lafleur, with
his gun upon his shoulder, kept guard over
The snow removed and the branches tak
en from their position, in the light reflected
by tho clouds of smoke hovering over the
forest in combustion, Yegor, Ladislas ana
Nadege saw a man—a dead man interred.
“A corpse!” exclaimed they, simultaneous
ly, with different degrees of emotion.
A sigh answered them.
“He is not dead I” cried Yegor. And he
felt his heart. “It beats strongly!" added
he, full of hope.
“Oh! what good fortune for us!" cried
Nadege. ‘*My friends, we are allowed to
do a good action—which will somewhat con
bole us for the cruol extremities to which
you were compelled to rosort; you can re
store this life in place of the other life in the
defiles! Confidence, Yegor! This is a good
omen for the success of your courageous en
terprise.”
The chief of police was placed in a sitting
posture by Yegor, aided by”M. Lafieur, who
had forgotten the boar and its growls.
Yegor, frightened at seeing the distorted
features and closed eyes of the chief of
police, thought the sight a vision of the
brain.
“Ah! Nadegel” cried he, “do not speak
of that man of the defiles—you fill me with
M. Lafleur, with open mouth, was also
staring with fright.
Yermac, at last, opened his eyes.
‘‘Thank you!” said he.
“It is, indeed, the chief of police!” stam
mered Yegor, in extreme astonishment.
“Whoever you are, I thank you!” again
said the exhumed man. “You have taken a
heavy mountain from my breast.”
The reflections of the conflagration grew
more intense, suddenly increased, with
cracklings indicating that the flames had
found new food.
“What! is it you, Monsieur Semenoff!—
is it you, Monsieur Lafleur! Do I owe my
life to you—to you! Where is my son! What
have they done with Dimitri! It is night—
and I am wounded in the right arm—I, am
losing blood. Have you, Semenoff and M.
Lafleur, come to finish me! Did you bury
me alive beneath the snow, as the other day
you strove to bury me alivo beneath the
rocks! That was cowardly. But explain
yourselves—speak!”
Yegor and M. Lafleur had lost the power
of speech. Nadege was on the point of
fainting, and little Ladislas, after hating
retreated several steps, was making pre
cipitate signs of the,cross, one after another.
“Monsieur Yermac,” said the exile, final
ly, “there is in all this the intervention of a
higher power! It is to aid you that we are
here. Fear nothing. And if I have done
you grievous wrongs, I offer to repair them.
But you yourself do not attribute to chance
the strange circumstance that, after having
left you for dead in the defiles of the Verkho
Yansk Mountains, we should disinter you in
this spot. You are wounded; we will care
for you.”
M. Lafleur added a few words which en
lightened the chief of police as to how he
came in the hole. As a commentary, the
bear was still growling in the distance.
As a further proof, M. Lafleur showed the
remains of the corpse spread out upon the
ground. Everything was explained.
“I thank you, Messieurs,” said Yermac,
getting upon his feet. “I am in better con
dition than I thought. So we are quits,
Monsieur Semenoff. Now, you can no
longer deny that you are in full flight,
you and she whom you call your betrothed,
as well as her brother! I arrest you all
three!”
Jiegor mado a movemont, Nadege grew
pale, and little Ladislas burst into tears;
but M. Lafleur said, with a sneer:
“You are Joking, my poor Yermao! Why,
you can scarcely stand, you are alone,
wounded, and far from all help—yet you
talk as if you had a squad of Cossacks at
your back! Don’t get angry; we shall quiet
ly proceed on our way—and if you are not
satisfied, another time we will lot the
*®ars of Siberia devour the agents of au
thority.”
“You have strength on your side, Mes
sieurs, but I represent the law," 'said the
ebief of police, with dignity.
“On the faith of a Parisian, what a slngu
w pretension!” cried M. Lafleur.
‘ Strength should remain with the law," re
sinned Yermao.
“Well, if you have the strength, show It!"
Yegor interposed:

atrange nature was that of Yer
“*°t who discharged his policeman's funo
tlons without the least passim, with the
absence of every interest Duty and law!—
these two words summed up for him life
the world and society. HU conscience,
pure, sincere, Just and free from every se
cret end, had made him an austere, impassi
ble and impenetrable man. He looked his
adversaries in the face, as the lion looks at
its foes. Disgusted at hiding himself, at
crouching in a corner to await the passage
of his prey and hurl himself upon it unex
pectedly, he acted openly, loyally, even
with those who were in insurrection against
the law.
“Monsieur, the chief of polios of Yak
outsk,” said M. Lafleur, “we cannot see
things in the same light as you; you will re
main with us, if you please, until we Judge
you retreat indifferent to our safety you
are our prisoner!" ’
“But I am wounded !*
“Another reason for remaining with us.
I will cure you; I know all about wounds.”
“You!—a dancing-master!—a maker of
women’s hats!—a manufacturer of cham
pagne!”
“I bogan life as an herbalist, Monsieurl
But have you no woapons?”
“I had a gun and pistols,” said the chief of
police, looking in tho direction of the field
of strife,
As he finished speaking, Ladlslas advanc
ed, bearing slung across his back the very
gun and showing in his bolt the very pistols
in question.
“Keep those arms, my child," said M. Laf
leur to him.
“So you disarm me. However, my safety
demands—”
“We will protect you, Monsieur!" said the
dancing-master.
“A moment will come, Monsieur Yermac,”
added Yegor, “when I will return to you
evon the governor general’s gun, begging
you to restore it to him with my compli
ments. Well, Messieurs, suppose we pitch
our tents and prepare our camp for the
night.”
Meanwhile, the evening had arrived, and,
in the distance, the last fires of the con
sumed forest were dying out.
CHAPTER MI.—A TREASURE-TROVE.
“You arc our prisoner on parole,” said M.
Lafleur to the chief of police.
‘■I am your prisoner, if you will,” an
swered the latter, “but you are none the
less the prisoners of the Czar, arrested in
the act of violating the law by me, Yer
mac, chief of police of Yakoutsk. Your
friends remain accused of an attempt to es
cape with armed hand, and you are aiding
them.”
“I shall not try to wriggle out of that,”
said M. Lafleur.
It was not easy to make the arrangements
for passing the night. The snow had again
begun to fall. By the light of a lantern,
Yegor and M. Lafleur made the oouch of
Nadege and her adopted brother against a
high rock, using for that purpose the warm
est furs they possessed. Some saplings
formed the frame-work of a very low roof,
which they covered with thick cloth.
While these preparations were in pro
gress, Nadege drew from her sack; which
had happily escaped from the disaster, some
blackish flour with which she half-filled a
huge wooden porringer. She also poured
in some cold water drawn from the torrent
by Ladislas, and stirred the mixture with a
spoon. The flour made of oats, dried in an
oven and carefully sifted, swelled and over
flowed the porringer. Nadoge offered each
one a share; after all, It was quite agreeable
food.
Yegor, the Parisian, and Yermac at last
rolled themselves in the remaining furs.
The dog Wab commenced to walk around
the tent and the bodies stretched upon the
ground, which the snow began to cover.
Under the animal's guard, everybody re
posed from the multiplied emotions of the
day.
The first to awake—it was the chief of
police—perceived the companions of hfs
open air slumbers looking like small mounds
beneath their coverings of snow, which,
while imparting to them a certain amount ol
heat, gave them the appearance of lying un
der heaps of white feathers.
Yermac, disturbed by their immobility,
shook them.
M, Lafleur had some trouble to free his
hc(*. He appeared under the picturesque
guise of the good man Winter, as seen in
December in the windows of the Paris con
fectionary shops, with otter-skin wool pull
ed down about his eyes and spotted with
•now, his hair powdered with hoar frost, his
nose red and his garments as white as those
of a miller.
"An : cnea ne, giving niiuseii a ran,
is plainly to be seen that there are no gen
darmes in the vicinity—otherwise, a slum
berer beneath the stars In my vagabond
condition could not be awakened by a mem
ber of the police force without danger of
passing the succeeding nights in the seclu
sion of a cell!"
The chief remained impassible; and,
though his arm torn by the bear caused
him horrible sufferings, he allowed no evi
dence of it to be seen. M. Lafleur remem
bered his wound and wished to dress it; the
chief of police mechanically allowed him to
do so.
When the ex-herbalist had finished, he
said:
“I presume that it is not your intention to
remain eternally in this spot open to all the
winds and exposed to every inclemency of
the weather!”
“No,” answered Yegor, Joining the con
versation, “we are waiting here for a na
tive sent by us to Zachiversk, who is to
bring us back two nartas drawn by rein
deer."
“But—it seems to me that you are taking
me into your confidence in regard—”
“To our plans!” interrupted Yegor. “Well,
what of it 1 Your loyalty, despite the lan
guage you have used, is a guarantee to m*
that I can enter into a free explanation witb
you.”
“You speak, perhaps, with too muoh con
fidence.”
“We have a right to that confidence,” ob
served the Parisian, “for without us, Mon
sieur Yermac, the bear with the white col
lar wojild have been digesting you at this
moment!”
“Yes4 yes—you count on holding me
through gratitude.”
“We must, for the reason I have stated,'
resumed Yegor, “remain as near as possi
ble to the forest—I should say the site on
which the forest stood. Can you account
for this frightful disaster, Monsieur Yer
mac?”
“Yee," said the latter; “it was I who set
fire to the forest”
“You!” cried the fugitives in one voice.
••To dislodge you—I could not indefinitely
await your good pleasure."
“But, wretch,” exclaimed Yegor, “you ran
the risk of roasting us alive!”
“Of course; I knew I was exposing you to
that.” . . .
“And you did not shrink from such a hor
riblo deed!” said Nadege.
“Well," observed M. Lafleur. “we are,
indeed, square with you; we were so, I see,
even before the ep'-ode of the bear. Be
tw«en us, me rock 1b the defile* wsa • men '
nothing compared to the mean* you emploj
when yon set yourself to work t»
“And the attack beside the pool!" said the *
chief of police.
“We are square with you, I tell you,-" ra
plied tho Parisian. “Twice, it la true, yes
have escaped. But we were four In dangei
of death. Count up for yourself I You an
still Indebted to ua for what we did for you
in releasing you from the hiding-place of
the bear with the white collar, the Ursui
Collariust” !
“For a scientific man, you are a keen cal
culator, M. Lafleur 1”
“Because I am somewhat of a merchant
also, and know how to keep books. Youi
account balanced, I charge you anew with a
miraculous resurrection I”
“And your doctor's fees I*
“I pass them to profit and loss.”
M. Lafleur, as ho talked, beat his sides as
tho coachmon are accustomed to do In Paris.
That, however, did not prevent him from
being ready with his replies. |
That day was marked by a discovery mads
by Ladlslas after breakfast—a breakfast
which vied In frugality with the supper oi
the previous evening.
With the aid of a few small branches, the
lad had cleared away the snow from the vi
cinity of Nadege's little tent. Ho thon sat
down on the ground, and, os ho had seen M.'
Lafleur pick up pebbles and examiuo them
to see if they were worthy of figuring In thf
new collection he had commenced, Ladlslas
imitated his actions. I
■***» uju wua i»ai tn uiuuj uiuai uiu uiwum^
quite a largo number of small, round stonef
of a yellowish green, which lay upon th j
rocky soil. He gathered them, and, aftef
having displayed them for Nudoge’s admiral
tion, again squatted on the ground and her
gan to throw them into the air, one after an>
other, catching them in one hand with th|
address of a Juggler.
M. Ijifleur, who arrived unexpectedly,
was struck by the form and color of tli| .
stones, and upon examining them, exclaim
ed:
“What luck! Thoso are green emerald^
of rare size and groat value.”
“Are you cortain, M. Lafleurt” asked Nad,
ege, who already saw in perspective super'i
adornments for grand occasions.
“I tell you, Mademoiselle, that they arf
marvelous emeralds, the oquals of which,
perhaps, no court in Europe possesses. The;)
are worth many thousands of dollars.”
The chief of police heard these words ancj
approached, followed by Yegor.
“Look, Monsieur,” said Ladislas to him.
“M. Laflour asserts that these are emer
aids!’’
“X can readily believe it," answored Yer
mac, after a brief examination.
“There can be no doubt about it,” said M.
Lafleur. “Glance at this one which is brok
en; the break has the requisite glassincsi
and roughness.”
“I have made a good day's work, it seems I'
cried the child.
“My little friend,” said the chlof of police,
“you, perhaps, do not know that all the
precious stones discovered in Siberia belong
to the Czar! These must be sent to him,
without retaining any!”
“You are Joking, Monsieur Yermoc!” said
Yegor. “Always the Czar!”
“But it is the law.”
“Must we retrace our steps to lay at thi
feet of the Emperor these gewgaws with
the like of which his treasury abounds!”
“You are having your little laugh. I will
charge myself with transporting them—
Without in the least incommoding you.”
“It is you who are laughing now—and at
our expense,” replied Yegor.
“Well, I see I must do as you like in this
matter and must limit myself to making a
note of the discovery.”
“Make as many notes as you ploase, my
dear Monsieur Yermac,” said M. Lafleur,
• ‘and make them at your ease. For our part,
we shall carefully put aside these little peb
bles. They will bo souvenirs of our rough
experiences and of the time we passed U
your company.” t
The incident bad no other result.
One day, two days passed; it was Just sq
much less to wait for the arrival of thq
nartas. The snow, which fell at shortef
and shorter intervals, commenced to harden.
The great highway of flight was proparing
—broad, level, and as vast as possible.
The chief of police, his right arm in a
sling, aided Nadege in the preparation of
the food. To the dry flsh and smoked sal
mon which the Russians called oukale,
some of Yegor’s happy shots added a white
hare and two heath-cocks; Anally, M. I>af
leur killed a wild ram, which promised for
the succeeding meals passable cutlets and
legs of mutton.
me hum day, at supper time, the bivouac
fire attracted a native woman, who. in re
gaining her yourte, had atrayed a little from
her road.
On hearing the snow crack, the guests of
the desert raised theii- heads and saw a mis
erable, almost repulsive-looking being, cov
ered with a tattered animal skin. The un
fortunate nomad, with bronzed complexion,
high cheek bones and small, half-open oyes,
seemed to have a nursling under the breast
of her garment.
Nadege quickly approached her, madoher
seat herself beside the fire, and offered her
a part of a fowl, which the woman devoured,
casting her hard, black eyes around her.
Upon her bosom moved a living creature
carefully enveloped.
“Well, nurse,” said M. Lafleur, “might one
see the babyt”
The Yakoute understood the gesture which
accompanied the Parisian’s question, utter
ed in a strange jargon in which Russian,
French, and the Yakoute language were
mingled.
She gently and maternally drew aside the
reindeer skin which covered her shoulder,
and displayed three little blue foxes.
The stupefaction was general. M. Laf
leur, however, soon explained to everybody
that it is the prevailing custom among the
fur-hunters to carry off the young foxes to
raise with the intention of soiling the fur
when the animals have attained their full
development And, while talking of the fur
of the blue foxes, the Parisian laughed
heartily at the credulity with which the
ladies of the west, especially the English
ladies, array themselves in what purports
to be the genuine article. He informed
Nadege that the four feet of the animal
alone are utilized by the furriers, which
makes a pelisse cost in Russia seven or
eight thousand dollars. The feet only are
sold by the hunters. The rest of the fur is
thrown in, as having no value.
Ladislas questioned and, while the native
was voraciously finishing her repast, M.
Lafleur gave the curious child some details
concerning the habits of the blue foxes.
He told him that, exceedingly suspicious
and employing a thousand artful tricks
against the hunters, they leave their bur
rows only at night,

All we claim for it is an unequaled
remedy to purify the blood and in
vigorato tho liver. All the year round
you can depend on Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery in all
cases of blood-taints or humors, no
matter what their name or nature.
It’s the cheapest blood-purifier
sold through druggists. No matter
how many doses of other medicines
are offered for a dollar.
Why? Because it’s sold on a
peculiar plan, and you only pay for
the good you get.
Can you ask more?
“ Golden Medical Discovery ” is a
concentrated vegetable extract, put
up in largo bottles ; contains no al
cohol to inebriate, no syrup or sugar
to derange digestion ; is pleasant to
the taste, and equally good for
adults or children.
The “Discovery” cures all Skin
affections, and kindred ailments.
There is nothing that may
not happen to a thin baby.
There is nothing that may
not happen to a man who is
losing his healthy weight
We say they are " poor.”
They are poorer than we at
first suspect
Do you want almost all
that is known of the value of
plumpness told in a way to
commend to you careful liv

Just a bad cold, ana a hacking |b
cough. We all suffer that way some
times. How to get rid of them is :‘'M
the study. Listen—“I am a Ranch*
man and Stock Raiser. My life is f,
rough and exposed. I meet all ;
weathers in the Colorado mountains.
I sometimes take colds. Often they
are severe. I have used German
Syrup five years for these. A few
doses will cure them at any stage.
The last one I had was stopped in
34 hours. It is infallible." James
