It Was expected that this fortress would bo an easy ono to conquer. Precisely on Iter wedding day Yico Molise, the most elegant Hnd skeptical of the journalist of Upper Italy, had propounded to his friends this theorem: "Given a lioaufiful girl, very poor; given f hat sho marries a rich old mini; divide the number of his years by that of the hundreds of thousands of lire of ' that jewel, and Marehis did not have them. Mute, immovable, his heart op-pressed, he listened to Gemma's words as she described it to hitn. How could he tell her, how could he even tell her that he had not the 10,000 francs! It was terrible. To another woman who should have had that caprice one might have proposed to have her own diamonds re-set after that model, fir perhaps even to have tin imitation diadem made. No ouo would have suspected it. Hut ho felt that he danger lay in confessing his powerlessness. Yet it must be done. And he made an effort at courage. Gemma had seated herself beside him, throwing Iwk and bending a little to one side Iter blonde head wilh that irre-sistible feminine movement which dis-plays the white throat, the pure line descending from the slender neck U the full bloomed bust dowu to the round and flexible waist. 'I would like to have it; it seems to me that I should look well. Don't yon think so? I havo a great wish to bo beautiful. If you knew why:" She laughed now deliciously, with the air of her roguish hours. He was silent for a moment ; then fixing a vague look upon the delicate designs of the oriental which she liecoines mistress, and you will havo the number of months nec s sary for her to take a lover." And as f;oon as he could he begun, with many others, to aftenud thedunon-Ftrat.io- n of that theorem. Well, this timo the impeccable pyscho-logic- al diagnosis of Vice Molise hud born found to fail. Not only, after some months, the beautiful Kignora M.irehis liad no lover, but it appeared alao that 'she never was to have one. Always dressed with au adorable ele-gance, with a luxnry full of good taste, the beautiful Gemma loved to amuse herself, moving freely in that society new for her, finding herself in her right placo as a marvelous plant in a vaso of valuable porcelain, developing itself in all its spk ndor. She went to dances, to tho theatre, enjoying tho plebiscite of admiration provided by iier beauty, co-quetting a little with her adorers, flut-tering about the lire in order t iii'.aku them sparkle, her wings of a g ildeu but-terfly, but never Jetting herself bo burned. In tho very moment of a declaration, in tho niid.st of one of those waltzes whose notes seem made on purpose to Htifle expiring virtue in their serpent ino ppirals, she cut short h"r adorer by turn-ing her angelic head anil saying serenely: "I don't soy my husband. Look a little where my husband is, if you will bo so kind." And it was known that her greatest delight was to relate precisely to her husband the declarations which she had received. When sh camo home with him from a ball, all wrapped in the white silken folds of her sortie du bal, with her pure throat, her snowy shoulders that blossomed still moro fair from her swansdown boa; when in tho evening pho met him in the dining room, still in visiting costume, with her slim 4iist tightly compressed by an exquisitely ele-gant gown, with her face animated by the slight excitement which elegant con-versation always produces in a young woman, she amused herself immensely DKCKl'TIONS. When, before tho altar, tho prie.-.- t her, "Aro you content?'' it was vith all her soul Gemma haJ responded, "Vest" Oh, yes; she was content indeed. Through the cloud of costly lace which fti wrapped her in its snowy transparence the saw tho vast church all dotted with lights, resplendent in the dark gleam of mosaics upon golden backgrounds, nni-- , mated by tho slight movement of tho Very elegant crowd that filled it, lighted liy oblique rays descending from tho nave, all a glitter of gold, silks and brill-iant-and it was her own future that flho s 'i niel to sco thus the years of luxury and wealth which her rich mar-- l iago was preparing lor her. And had it not been the dream for which she li,;hed? .She, the ideal blonde, of IS years, with the tall and proud figure; the pure, disdainful profile under heavy tiils like those of an archangel, with haughty eyes sparkling like blue gems under tiie golden fringes of her long eye-lashes. She had boon for a long time n poor girl, the daughter of ci'izenswho had peon belter days, that, marvelous human lily. Wio had experienced all the jH'tty troubles, all tho cruel daily sufferings of misery that conceals itself. The poor cud inelegant gowns, painfully retnod- - ded every year; the insolence of credit-ors; humiliations; continual and tor-menting thoughts of money she had experienced them nil, and in her little heart, eager for pleasure and enjoy- - incut, swollen with unsatisfied longings, a dream was ariseu little by little, oc-cupying all the room, rendering her in-sensible to all the rest tho dream of at hist becoming rich. She wanted it, absolutely; she was horn for it; sho was rich now, That "yes," which she hail just pronounced, had, by its three magic letters, changed her destiny; and she was so content, so j carpet, paling as if from an inward wound, ho murmured: "The fact is that I do not know I do not really know whether whether I bhall be able to buy it for you" "Why?" Sho had quickly r.'iised her head, much surprised, uneasy, looking ut him. Such a tiling had never happened to her. Marehis wiped his forehead and re-sumed his discourse. "Tho fact is yon. see, in n bank like ours there are moments that certain moments in which ono cannot in which it is impossible." What was impossiblo for him, in that moment, was to finish the phrase. lie stopped and lifted his eyes timidly to her, desolately, ns if to beg her to help him. She was very pale, with a midden hardness in all her features, in her mouth, in her knit brows, in her sparkling eves. "Have you not 10,000 francs? Is it possible?" And her voice was bard ns her look a profound hardness that startled him. r.ut ull at once her face changed expres-sion, she recovered her fresh, tuneful laugh, the sweet and limpid ray was re-kindled in her blue eyes. "Com", yon want to tell me stories, so as not to buy me anything. Deceiver! I that wished to Vio beautiful in order to drive Yico Molise a little crazy; he has declared to me that ho is tired of my perfidy. See, you deserve do you know that I am beeomim angry wilii you?" She really believed that she had hit he truth with her words. Indeed, ho had so well kept up the illusion with her, he had hidden so jealously his em-barrassment that sho did not know how to explain this sudden restriction. But meanwhilo every word of hers was a blow to t he heart of Marehis; ho saw her already lit the ball, passing from arm to arm, with her step like a flying angel; listening to the insidious compliments of Yico Molise and his kind, and keeping meantime in her heart that leaven of rancor against him because of his re-fusal; and he saw himself again, as he had seen himself a little while before in the mirror, old, weary, worn, beside her so fresh, young, with eyes sparkling from the cruel scorn of one who has made an unequal bargain. Suddenly he rose, like one who has taken a division, passed his hand across his brow, and without replying went away to go out of the house. She be-lieved that she had conquered, and let hiin go without moving herself, only with a flash of cunning in her eyes, but when he was on tho stairs tho door opened, a blonde head appeared between the folding doors: "Wo are agreed, then?'' Ko did ant reply, and rhe heard his Ktep down the stairway, slow, heavy, weary. The evening of the ball Marehis knocked at the door of his wife's dress-ing room. "Come in," and he entered. In the little dressing room so illumined as to seem on fire, with the air filled in addressing to her" husband soino of these provoking and rouish phrases: "You know, I was at Countess Foschis'. Molise was there, you know. Always faithful and always in despair. And also Comelli, he that, has such lugubri-ous gallantry, lie has promised to kill himself for mv sake within a month; we shall see. Ah! Ah!" And sittingoppositeto him, in a rustle of satin and jet, making shine likotwo stars tho brilliants, large as hazelnuts, which adorned her small ears, Rhe con-tinued to laugh, with her elastic laugh-ter, full of mischief and full of tender-ness. Ah, indeed, old Marehis could call himself a fortunate maul Fortunate? Yes, he ought to have considered himself so. When he set himself to reason alsmt it, to describe mentally his conjugal situation, he had to conclude that he would have done wrong to complain of his destiny. And yet What of the terribly unexpected had be now discovered in the denths of 1 lie happy, that it appeared to her it was all a dream, that her Mechlin veil vas a clond that transported her into tho realms of the impossible, across a sidereal heaven, of which the diamond pins thrust among her laces formed the flam-ing stars; and, in order to return to reality, she must cast her eyes toward her husband, Lnigo Marehis, kneeling besido her in the mystic, velvety shade of the altar, lit by tho tremulous bright-ness of the candles. Ah, there was nothing ideal about him, poor fellow! In vain he straight-ened his correct person of nn elegant man, with his accurately shaven face, with slender brown mustache, and a t ill fresh color that gave him something tiie look of an actor; ho remained none the less old, with his powerful shoulders a little bent, with his eyelids grown heavy, and crow's feet toward bis tem-ples, with the gray locks that apKared h"re and there among his brown hair, with his forty-seve-n years, of which the weariness was more conspicuous beside that radiant and blonde spring. with fragrance from the little unstop-- ' pered bottle of perfume, all gleaming white with tiie disorder of feminine ap-parel scattered about, Gemma stood erect before tho mirror, between two kneeling maids, ready dressed for the ball. She w as truly radiant in her gown of white Putin with almond blossoms, with fresh sprays of almond flowers around the neck of the dress, at the waist, among the waving folds of the train, issuing from that covering of deli- -' cate, pale, dawn tinted flowers, she, too, was fresh as they, with her faintly rosy complexion, as if she were ono of those flowers become a person. But tinder her lasnes gfnmed anon the flash of cold and cruel rancor. H-'- r husband had not given her tho diadem. But hearing luin enter, she turned, ntid seeing that he held a casket in his bands she comprehended everything. With a bound she was beside him, her arms twined around his neck. "Oh, how good yon are! How good you are! How I love you!'' lie trem-bled all over and was very pale. Gumma did not even perceive it. All at once, with one of her irresistible movements, she loosened her arms from his neck, took with !:!0 hand tiie casket and with the other holding her husband's hand, she led htm after her to the mirror. She seated herself and opened tho casket. Among puffs of red plush, under the burning light, tho diadem sent forth sparks like a fLiuc. She had a new out-burst of joy, look the husband's head be-tween her bands, drew it down and kiss-- his forehead oh! the forehead of a I'd psi', i y h.id.

And while he sought to unite wilh trembling hands the clasp of the gems among those marvelous blonde curls, waving and breaking into ripples of gold at every movement, she. still with her bent head, lifted her smiling eyes to meet his look. And ho answered with a resigned gentleness to the smile of those perilous blue eyes; he, the poor man who deceived for the sake of desire to be deceived, and who bought for himself" a little mock love with mock diamonds, Translated for "Short Stories" from tho Italian of Haydee by E. Cavazza, pure sapphire of Gemma's eyes? Was tiiere arisen in his soul tho doubt, that that faithfulness againet every trial, that coldness toward her admirers, was nothing but the wish to preserve intact a position acquired with difficulty, and that precisely to that position was di-- l reefed all the tenderness shown toward himself! I do not know, but the vivid and impetuous joy of the wedding was no longer in him, although his love re-- j mained tho same, and a painful doubt thrilled in his voice when he replied to j the playful confidence of Gemma, for-- ! ciug himself to laugh, too. "Take care, now, take care the ven- - geance of the tyrant hangs over you" Ah, the poor tyrant, how he loved her! How she had known how to bind him ' with her little hands, white and per-fumed as two lilies! Eur nothing in tho world would be have discovered the truth, chamred into certainty his fo-menting doubt: so sho had only to ask in wder to obtain; for now for him that love of which he doubted had become his life, and he felt a painful stricture at bis heart at the mere thought: that a day migut come when he would be obliged to refuse her something. Yet that day came. Suddenly, by one of those mys-terious complications of business, his Innk. which until then had uoti- - from triumph to triumph, underwent a vio-- , lent shock. Not a noisy downfall, one of those open, public ruins winch pro-dtie-great failures, but ono of those deep, intimate, secret crises that must be borne without a word.Jh lament, under penalty of death: that can ! overoorao only by force of small privations, little bidden pavnii.s; it is then t!;:it economy in t!' family becoui neces-fary- , The luxury of Gemma in those moments beciune nb.-d- !y ruinous for her husband; h on.dit to havo warned her, sought to check her; he dared not, and continued to content her, but very soon came the time when he could do so no more. It was on tho occasion of a great ball to which sho was to go; she had ordered from Paris a marvelous gown that be-came her to perfection: still she was not satisfied. Some days before, in the show-case of the most fashionable jeweler of the city, a diadem had set in revolution nil the feminine imaginations; a superb jewel, of antique style, set iu silver gilt, of a starry pallor, where the brilliants seemed drops of flame. Gemma wished to have it, and indeed it would bo diffi-cult to find a face adapted to the almost religious richness of that jewel, mora than her snowy profile of an angel ir? ecstacy. Teii thoustai'l francs was the price of Forty-seve- n years! How was it possi-ble? Ho felt his heart so palpitating, full of tears as iu youth! And he could not comprehend how so much time had passed; lie could not persuade himself of the incredible fact forty-seve- n years passed without knowing Geinmn. For they had been acquainted with each other only two months. Marehis, however much he had frequented society, drawn there by bis banking connections, li id never let himself lie talked to of marriage. What! A wife, children, troubles, cares, disappointments! Not even by idea! And at 47 years ono evening, present from motives of curiosity at a ball to which the employes of his bank had in-vited him, he must iiK'ds bo smitten by the exquisite, vaporous grace of that Wondegirl, dressed simply in white, en-tering on the arm of a funny little man with a baby face and a big, silvery heard her father, a modest clerk in the bank; a rather ridicnlous little old man, who, beside that divine apparition, slen-der in her robes of snow, made one think of the gnomes of folk tales, always crouching at the feet of fairies. All, weakness of hearts growing old! That apparition was enough to shake alt the ideas of Luigo Marehis concerning matrimony, and as the old gnome, de-spite his absolute nullity, was an honest citizen, incapable of resisting the assidu-ities of the director to his pretty daugh-ter, the suitor had been greatly pleased with tho consent of that little maiden of 33, that beautiful creature, that, blonde Wing, to become his wife. Now ha trembled with joy. His eyes wero misty with vivid emotion not perceiving that that, too, was a siyn of old ai, and it was a voice choked with joy that to the question of tho priest, "Are you con- - tent?" replied, "Oh, yt-sl- Now it is done.

Now they pass through the church amid the mnrmnrs of compli-ments which arise amid the shadows of the aisles, among the dull scraping of feet and tho rustle of gowns; there on the peristyle, among the while columns, is a living wave of sun and air which comes to meet them, like a recall to real life outside of the mystic dream of the church, the creaking of the line of car-riages that advanced, the slow descent of the steps, with tho white train of the j lirito spreading and dragging njion the j flairs iu folds like snow, soft and light; thenhe carriages depart; they are alone Gen. Bonaparte, then lodging ut Rue Chantereine, had come to have ft talk with me about the preparations for the eventful day. I was then living in Rue Taitbout, ill a house which has since be-come No. I believe. It stood at the back of a courtyard, and running from the first floor there wero galleries which led to wings looking on the street. My drawing room was lighted with several candles. It was 1 o'clock in the morn-ing, and we were in the middle of a very animated conversation when we heard a great noise in the street. To the rum-bling of carriages was added the galloj)-in- g of nn escort of cavulry. Suddenly the carriages stopped right Ik? fore the door of my house. The gen-eral turned pale, and I quite believe I did the same. Tho idea struck ns both at the same timo that they wero coming to arrest us by order of the directory. I blowout tho candles and crept stealthily along the gallery to one of the outside wings, from which I could see What was going on in tho street. For some timo 1 was at a loss to make anything out of tho tumult, but at last I discovered the somewhat grotesque cause. At this epoch, tho l'uris streets being very unsafe at night, when the gambling houses clpsed at tho Palais Royal all the money that had been used for the bank was collected and placed in cabs, and the banker had been allowed by the police to have his cabs escorted by gendarmes, at his expense, to bis homo in the Rue do Clichy, or thereabout. That night one of tho cabs had broken down just in front of my bouse, and that was the reason of tho ht, which lasted for alxmt a quarter of an hour. We had a hearty laugh, the general and I, over onr panic very natural though it was when wo knew, as we did, tho tendencies of the directory and the extreme measures it1 was capable of taking.

Politeness, to be worth anything, must be instinctive. It is a good scheme to instruct youth in the outward signs of this inward grace, even though it hath it not, but tiie teacher should also prac-tice what he preaches, or discredit falls on him and his instruction. A certain professor in a popular school has been very strenuous in enforcing certain "manners" on his classes, and very prop-erly insists that the little boys should takeoff their hats whenever they mO'-- t any jtorson they know, and also give up their scats in a crowded street car to la-dies who aro standing. Soino of the small boys questioned tho latter neces-sity, but when informed that a gentle-man, unless he was a cripple, would never sit while a woman stood, accepted tho edict as final and have doubtless acted on it. Hut soino of these pupils have recently credited their professor with insincerity, for they have seen him retain his seat in a crowded public con-veyance, and, furthermore, he barely re-turns with a touch of his hat rim the courteous recognition of the young girls in bis classes.
