    IN CLANKING CHAINS.
The day was warm; tlie sun was shining;
lbs rkles and the hills were soft with the
mellow haze of autumn.
But lor the purple on the grapes and the
decadence of the flowers one would hare
thought that It was still summer, so mild
and balmy was the air. ,
All nature, save the winds, was In a
drowse; and they, sleepily enough, too,
were striving at playfulness. One moment
the bracing sea breeze was blown eastward
from the Bay of Biscay, and the next mo
nent the dryer air of the eastern mountains
prevailed; neither being siiflicient to scarce
ly rustle the leafage on tree or vine.
Ninette, a woman in graceful shapeliness,
but a child In all else, sat swishing her bare
feet through the clear water of s little Iso
lated pool in a sheltering grove.
Her brown ringers were weaving a wreath
of leaves and half-dead flowers, and with
closed Hps she was humming a little song
which gurgled in her throat like bird music.
It was one of those sweet, simple, pastoral
airs which have become quite as much a part
of the lives of the people of France as the
love which they bear their children.
Finally she finished her wreath.
Then the song, no longer suppressed,
bursts forth like a hymn of triumph and
filled all the grove with its Joyous Intensity
and flute-like sweetness. She sang with all
her might, and few women, evon In France,
where there is so much song and music, have
Voices,
Two men who were nearthe grove, though
neither was aware of the other's presence.
began advancing toward the singer. One of
them was old and gray, with the dusky
cheeks and poetic eyes of Italy. The other
was a soldier, young, and with a vicious
face. The old man apparently knew the
voice he was hastening toward, and an ex
pression of mingled dread and pleasure came
upon his face, lie reached the girl first, and
seeing him, the soldier paused. The girl
gave the old man a smile of recognition and
welcome as she hastily drew together the
half opened front of her dress.
"Child." said the old man, "are you doing
wisely losing here by yourself? The country
Is full of soldiers."
"But they are French soldiers. Father An
tonio; and my father Is a Frenchman.
That "
"No matter, they are also men ; and you
might be harmed If they found you here
alone."
For a moment she was silent, and a slight
frown came upon her face. Ho sighed and
iliook his head. It seemed such a pity that
with her 15 years she had gained no knowl
edge of the dangers which ever threaten In
nocence and beauty.
And yet innocence Is woman's groatest,
holiest charm, only the world does not re
spect It
"Are all mou so bad, thou?" she asked, al
most pettishly.
"Believe me, child, all men are bad," he
answered, sadly.
"But you are a man, and so is my father,"
the ro.torted.
"1 tur father and I are old now. I have
sinned unongh In my day, and so, likely, lias
he. It la from the young that evil Is most
likely to come to you, though you are lovely
, tnoitgh to tempt anyone."
"She was lying upon the ground, with one
of her bare feet still In the pool. The
gnarled and sloping roots of a tree, robbed
by some tempest of their covering of earth,
furnished a pillow for her head and should
ers. She had thrust one of her bare arms
through the wreath, and It lay against her
round throat like a talisman given by a pro
tecting god.
There was a smile on her lips and In her
yes. Lost In some purely childish reverie,
he had already forgotten the old man's
warning words and the momentary pain she
had felt at the vague evil they seemed to
portend.
Watching her, he sighed again. Then,
drawing some pencils and a simple album
made of sheets of common paper, from a
pouch at his side, he began making a sketch
of her lithe, slender, hut exquisite figure.
The soldier, who had drawn quite near un
perceived, was watching them both with a
cynical smile.
"Ah, my boauty," he muttered, "but for
this cursed war I'd win your love or carry
you off without your love whichever wits
easiest. I will wait until that sketch is done.
Myrw the old fool will sell it to me. If he
reiuses, I'll have It anyway, and kisn the
maid besides I"
And then, to avoid discovery, before ho
was ready to be seen, he concealed himself
behind some vines.
She hail stripped some of the loaves in her
wroath from the same vines.
Htlll she mused, and still tho old man
(kotched. The picture was ilouo boforo she
was aroused from her reverie.
"See, Ninette," he said, "I have sketched
you; Imperfectly, true enough, but still It is
a tolerably fair likeness."
She sprang to her feet and hastened to his
(lde.
The picture was as faithful as ni t could be
to such beauty as hers, and ho placed It In
her hands with pardonable pride.
Eagerly she scanned It and with varying
color. A glow of excitement cume into her
eyes. Some powerful emotion, too deep for
his ken, moved her.
"Truly, Father Antonio, am 1 like that?
Ii It really a picture of ine?" she asked, al
most breathlessly, as her cheeks reddened
and her large eyos darkened.
"You are better, far better than that," ho
answered reverently. "It is quite like you,
but still It is beyond the skill of any artist to
catch the strange subtleness one sens in you
an Indescribable something which I doubt
If any other woman has."
The excltemont In her face was rlisplacod
by wonderment and that In turn by con
tentment Then the dreamy look caiuo into
her eyes again, and a single tear rolled
down each of her chocks.
The old man laid by his hat and bowed
bis gray head before the rnre young creature
a had Just transferred to his album. Ills
pencils fell from his fingers and lay bet-v
his feet unnoticed,
"It is a very beautiful picture," she u
mured softly.
"Tou are a very beautiful woman," he an
iwered In the same tone.
A woman I A beautiful woman I Tire
words sent a strange thrill through her.
She bad never been called a woman
before. The old man's picture and his
word had opened a new second world to
her. Suddenly and strangely her childhood
eenied dead to her. The old life was rolled j

Hhe glanced down at her bare feet with a
sense of shame she had never known before.
Her checks burned and her lashes drooped

The old man saw her contusion, under-'
stood and respected It. j
"Von must be careful about the soldiers,"
he said softly.
"1 will he very careful. Father Antonio," j
she answered tremulously.
Still, she but half understood. To her
pure mind the only womanly shame In the 1
world was the shame of nakedness. An al-1
most stifling sense of pain came to the old
man because of the dangers wliu h, sooner '.
or later, she must meet and do battle against
dangers of whloh she was so pitifully Iguor I
ant !
Would God guard her, he wondered, ot j
Would the dark one destroy her, as he had
eo many Innocents before her? i
For the Drat time he cursed himself be
cause ot his poverty. .
In sunny Italy, in the glad days of his
boyhood, they had said he had genius. Per
baps they were right; he believed they were,
for he was artist enough to Judge by his own
work Justly and to appreciate Its merits as j
well as deplore Its faults. But he had no
tact Other artists, who were In every oilier j
tense Ulterior to him, could manage to sell
the veriest daubs (or a hundred times the
price he could get for a finished study which
was the work of weeks of hunger, pain, and j
patient toll. .
He he had always been poor.
Age had come upon him. and he was In nc
way prepared fur it Forsaking Hair, he I ml

derful than those which had made many
another famous throughout the world. It
was years since he had been able to purchase
colors, and he was so very poor that it was
often impossible even to get paper and pen
cils. Never before had his poverty made him
bitter.
Now if he but had the money his wasted
work should have brought him, he could
save this innocent one from the snares and
pitfalls which were ever at the feet of such
as slie- .... ,
She was only a peasant's daughter, only a
thoughtless child, before his picture and his
words had awakened her dormant woman
hood; but to him she was the suprcinust mar
vel since creation's dawn. He loved her
a father loves his daughter when a course oi
life is nearly run and she is all that earth
holds for him.
He glanced at her with a deep si'h of re
gret at his inability to help her. She wa
looking at the sketch, which she still held In
her hands.
"It is a very beautiful picture' she mur
mured again, as if unconscious (hot she had
said the same words before; and he repeated
his former answer.
"You are a very beautiful woman."
That moment there was a crash In the
Tines, ann tne soldier hciici1 fori.
"You have , told the truth, old man," ht
said, "she is certainly beautiful enough, bid
1 have no doubt she prefers hearing it from
younger lips than yours."
"What do you want?" demnmtcd Antonio.
"What is that to ou?"
"Nothing, perhaps; and perhaps every
thing. If you are an honest man and worthy
of your uniform, you will go away at once
and leave this maid with me." .
"No honest man would leave so lovely
woman In the woods witli such a ra'
vagabond as you."
The old man frowned and drew himself
Up proudly.
"Let me tell you, sir soldier, It takes more
than rags to make the vagabond, Just as it
takes more than bright buttons and war col
ors to make the 111311."
The soldier laughed.
"Really, If you were younger, and still so
insolent, I'd run my sword through you un
less you proved a better man witli tho blade
than V
"Try it," retorted Antonio.
Again the soldier laughed.
"You bluster well," he said. "Come, old
man, 51111 but waste your rage 011 me; I am
good nature's self. Besides, my purpose is
an honest one. 1 doubt if you are lit com
pany for this young woman. When 1 iind
that you are 1 will most humbly beg your
pardon. 1 am a soldier a true son of
France, in this maid 1 see a countrywoman
of mine, whom duty, at least, compels me to
protect. Do not look sour. When in the
history of Fiance did the brave ever desert
the fair? Anyway, if It has happened, it Is
not going to happen now. 1 shall take this
maiden to her home you shall lead the way,
If you know it. Once there, if her parents
bid you welcome, you may slnpuiy faeo with
your flat hand and 1 will not resent it."
"Let him do It, Father Antonio," said Ni
nette. "What he says sounds fair."
"Yes, it sounds fair, but It's only a devil's
trick. This villain wnnLs to And out your
home."
"Ho not believe him," said the soldier to
Ninette. "Truly, 1 am sincere. It would
be against my manhood to leave you with
this old beggar unless I know he has a
right."
"But he has," she answered. "He lives
with us In our poor home."
"Ah I girl, that oxcusu has served many a
maiden when danger threatened her lover.
I cannot believe that the roof which honors
Itself by sheltering you is also disgraced by
litis ranged pauper, except that tho mischief
has already been done, and that you are liv
ing alone with him in shame."
"Magged 1" she exclaimed, Impatiently,
"why, 1 sin scarcely less so."
"But your beauty Iiiealir.es yours, They
are made invisible by your face, while this
old vagabond is not so favored."
He looked at her In rapt wonderment, en
tirely failing to understand wiiy, in tier in
nocence, she only saw insolence in her allu
sion to the old man's rags. He doubted If
she was fiill-witteii; to the grossly-minded
there Is no innocence save In imbeciles and
in babes.
Willie he was staring at her, half in pity
and half in contempt, old Antonio was more
tctlve. He had crent noiselessly and unno
ticed to the soldier's side, and his lingers
Were reaching out for the Impudent fellow's
sword. Suddenly the old artist clutched the
hilt ami snatched tho coveted weapon from
its sheath.
"Now, sir soldier," he cried, "you ahull
dance while I lidille."
"(live me back my sword, old man," said
the soldier. "Surely you will not take my
Jesting so illy?"
"Oil, no; why should 1? It was most ex
cellent Jesting, and only puts me in humor
for a Jest or two myself. Now, Ninette,
hurry Inline, and I will keep this Jolly sold
ier until you arc out of harm's way. If he
does not stand still I'll run him through, and
witli Ills own blade. That's another Jest
and one which can be appreciated even by
those who wear no uniforms."
"1 think you are wrong, Father Antonio.
1 am sure he meant us no harm, though it
was not respectful of him to speak as he did
of your rags."
Tho soldier's eyes moved from the nirl'
face to the old man's. .
Tell me," ho said, "If this woman la a
fool. Her eyes seem bright enough, hut she
talks 11s If her wits were dull."
"So far as sinful knowledge is concerned
she Is a child," said Antonio, "if you anil
your fellow-soldiers tarry hero king, though.
I've no doubt she will become as apt as tlifl
other women you know."
A look of compassion came over the sold
ier's face.
"What a pity to have her find out the
truth I" he said, Willi a sigh.
"Yes," said Antonio, ''and that is why
took your sword,"
''You were right," said the soldier. "1
never saw such 11 woman before. To be
honest I did menu her harm, she is so beau
tiful. Hut you could not make me Injure
now even witli the point or that sword at
my throat."
"Do you mean It?" asked tho old man
eagerly.
"I swear it, on my honor as a soldier. Yot
have a right to doubt me, though. I deserve
that."
"I believe yon," said Antonio. "I can see
trul Ii in your eyes. Here is your Bword."
"(live nto your hand tirst."
The two men clasped hands first and then
Antonio slid the sword back Into the sheath
he had taken It from.
.Nmettn watched them vaguely, as if she
had Kiavo doiiin of their sanity. Then she
picked up Ant. "tin's pencils and ulbinu and
put them in his pouch. Tne sketch which
lie had made of her could not ho found,
though Antonio and the soldier helped liet
look for it
The soldier nimuoil and bewildered, sal
down by the pool in alienee. Near his hand
was the wrealli which N incite had made of
the leaves ami dead lion ers. lie picked it
up tenderly as if n had been a living thing,
Willie reverent tears came into his eyes.
Antonio and Hie girt moved quietly away.
"France is worth lighting for, alter all."
muttered the soldier. "One such woman is
worth all the lives in the French army."
When he aroused himself and arose to his
feet Ninette and the old man were out of
light
It hurt the soldier for a moment to think
that they had stolen away from him so, but
at i 11 did not blame them.
"it was wisest," he said, sadly; "such a
ewel is not likely to be tito jealously guanl
td." And then ho, too, walked slowly troiu
Uie grove.
As he was emerging from the shelter of
the trees something rustled at his feet
It was Antonio's sketch of Ninette. The
wind had blown it there.
Ho picked It up, carried it with him to his
lent and concealed It. Hut some prying eye
ipied out the secret of its hiding-place, and
It was shown to the general, a rough, coarse
brute, who respected neither Innocence nor
virtue. The picture of the beautiful girl
tiled him with a desire to see the girl her
self. He at once had the soldier summoned,
and plied luni with questions.
The brave fellow had already resolved to
shield Ninette with his lite, If any occasion
demanded It and so he deliberately In
formed the general that It was merely a fan
cy picture which he had found in a shop In
Farts.
"Why did you bring It with you here,
tten?" demanded the general,
"liecause It is so beautiful."
"Very well: 1 wilt keen It for the same
reason, until 1 nmi inn original. nut m-ir
ywn one thing; if 1 find hit: near this camp
1 yen go into chains."
j The soldier trembled as he walked away,
lie cared nothing about the chains. He
would wear ttiem willingly, all his days, If
that would only keep the girl safe from the
gvneral.
I He must find Antonio, if possible, and
warn him to keep Ninette out of sight of the
general and his minimis.
That very day he saw the old man and
told him of the general's unholy quest But
1 it brought about the very tiling lie was so
anxious to avoid. A spy overheard them
and followed Antonio straight to Ninette
and her father.
I That night the soldier was dragged from
his tent, put in chains, and taken to his gen
eral. Once in the general's tent he knew
j what his arrest meant for there, under
; guard, and like him in chains, wero Antonio
and Ninette's father.
1 "Here." said the ai.ry general as they
also orougnt jxineire lorwarn, -tins is um
woman whose picture you lied to me about
1 Will you tell me why you did so?"
j The soldier bowed his head for an Instant,
' and then straightened himself up proudly.
"It was the only way," he replied, "in
which I could protect her from your lust"
"That speech will cost you your life, and
you can be sure that it will make matters
none the easier for her," snarled the goner-
; al, witli an oath.
j "if I could first end your life," retorted
1 the soldier, "1 should be little concerned
I about my own."
I "Ha! lia" laughed the general, liendlsh
! ly, "in tlii.t thought is sweet satisfaction for
me. You die for nothing aiwoiuteiy noth
ing. It will be sucli a puiposcloss, unseld-ler-like
deatli ; without even 1011 nice in it to
console you. You shall not die for France,
nor fortlie woman you love. You area
traitor 1 Your lying to me about this peas
ant's daughter makes you such, and as such
you shall be shot. These other men, her
father and this old Italian are also worthy of
death, because they resisted my troops.
Three traitors to be shot at once 1 Oh. it will
bo a rare sport 1 If you need something to
encourage you to meet ucatn Diaveiy, re
member that this woman for whom you
hare destroyed yourself will be my toy
until I find another who pleases me better.
Hal ha I ha I There, take them away, all of
them. Ha! hal ha!"
Manhood slumbered, and the guard obeyed
the general. Ninette was put in a tent by
herself, and the others, with their chains
clanking at their wrists and ankles, were
taken to another part of the camp.
All through the night the girl heard those
awful chains. Her country's funeral dirge
would have greeted her ears les.i mournfully.
Just before daybreak slio dreamed that the
chains had ben taken from her- three
i friends, heated hot, and twisted about her
! own heart.
1 She uttered a cry of pain so shrill that It
I readied the general's ear. He at once came
I to her tent. Discovering the causa of hot
alarm, he bade the guard retire while he
talked witli her. The clanking of the chains
slill sounded in her cars, and at the sight ot
the general she began pleading for her con
demned friends.
"What would you do to save them?" he
asked assuming a compassionate tone.
"Do! I would do anything. 1 would be
your servant, your dog whatever you chose
if you would only spare them. This
trouble all came upon them because of me,
and do you think that I would shrink from
anything which released them?"
"Would you go to prison to sava tliem?"
"Yes."
"Anil always stay there?"
"Yes."
"1 believe you. You are a brave girl. H
you will stay with me for a year and obey
everything, 1 will spare their lives."
"And when the year is over 1 can come
back here again to my father?"
"Certainly, if you wish."
She opened her eyes In amazement What
askud seemed a little thing only tone
his servant for a year I
"You do not answer," he said.
'What answer, save ono, could I makef
he responded quietly.
"You yon refuse, then?"
"No, no; 1 accept. Do you think I'd let
them die for such a little reason?"
"Do you promise to go with 1110, and obey
me. then?"
"Yes."
"Will you swear It?" he asked, eagerly.
Shu laughed.
"Why, what a stress you lay on a trifle,"
she answered Impatiently. "Yes, I swear it
If you want me to."
"(ioodl Then your father and the old
Italian shall be set free at once."
"And the soldier, too. You must not for
gel him."
"Very well, then; I'll forgive him, too.
Hut lie mud. leave my ami)', though, for his
disobedience."
"That don't matter. He can live with my
father until 1 conic homo again."
One single qualm of conscience came over
(lie villainous general, but when it was gone
his brutality was even more relentless than
before.
"Your father will be angry," he said, fear
ing that ho might get into trouble if he
seemed to take Ninette away against her
will. "You must tell him that you go with
ine willingly, and Hint It is your own wish.
) i not siy. either, that )ou go to save their
lives wait until you conv.i home, a year
hence, before you let any of them know
that"
"I will olvy you," she said.
An hour ialer she siooil beforo the gener
al's tent when her three friends were brought
up.
The clunking of their chains still thrilled
her wiih horror. How glad she was that they
were to lie so quickly stricken orf. What a
kind man the general was, after all, to par
don them for her, and hew slight was the re
turn he had asked her to make for itl The
world seemed very beautiful to her that
morning.
"Heuiovo tlie chains," commanded the
general.
He was obeveil.
"Now," he said, "these mt-u can go where
they like. All linen of them are pardoned."
"Come, Ninette," said her father, after
tlie general had been thanked for his clem
ency, "wo will go home."
She shook her head.
"I shall stay with the general," she said.
"In a ear 1 will come home again."
"What can ion 111. 'an, chiid?" he cried hi
