SUNMARY of PRECEDING CHAPTERS, Anton Lantier, a young mechanic out of work, reachos the cosl mines of Monston, France, cold, hungry sud penmless, The death of a miner makes a vacancy and ho se- cures employment in the Vulturo mine, Ma- hon, one of the miners, and his danghter Cathorine, explain the work to him and as- sist him the first day. Ho hears the mutter- ings of the miners against the company and threats of a striks, The exactions of the su- perintendent and ¢he small wages recelved gond the workmen to the verge of despera- tionand paved the way to the coming strug- gle. Manon agaln befriends Anton, and s cures lodgings for him at Rassaneur's, a tip- pling house near the mine, Anton’s determi- nation to leave is overcoms by the kindness of tho struggling miners, and he decides to battle with them. The owners of the mines revel in luxury, and turn a deaf ear to the appoals of the starving families of the workmen, who, in debt for food obtained during a strike three years previous, are barely able to secure sufficient food to sustain lifa. CHAPTER X, When Mahon entered the house, after having left Anton at Rawseneur's, he found Catharlne, Zicharie and Johnnle at the table, finlshing thelr soup. On returning from the mine, they were al- wagh 80 hungry that they sat down to eat in thelr damp clothing without even washing thelr facer; the table remained set from morning till night, and there was constantly some one there swallow— ing his portion, at the risk of the exigen— cles of labor.

Here he found everything. She would explain it to him later, and, while walting, he smiled contentedly. Catherine and Johnuie had already rlsen, drinking their coffeo stanalng, while Zacharle, his hunger only half ap- peased by his eoup, cut for himself a large slice of bread, which he covered with butter. He noticed the hogs-head cheese which Alziro had put upona plate, but he did not touch it, knowing that when there was only enough meat for one, it was intended for his father.

At any rate, don't he work while you others do nothing?” But Mahon oalled them, and taking Henry upon his left knee and Lenore on his right, he shared the remalnder with them, ecutiing it in small ploces which the children greedily devoured., Aftor finlshing, he sald to his wife: “No, don't give me my coffee now.

The tub was again filled with water and, at a glance from the mother, Allre, as was her habit, led the children out to play before the door. Thelr father dld not wash himself before the fsmily, slthough he considered it proper for the children to paddle around together. “‘What are you doing up there?”’ crfed Mrs. Mahon from the bottom of the stalra, “I’'m mending my dress. yosterday,” repliedCatharlne. “Ail right. Dou’t come down; your fathor's washing,” Mra. Mahon placed Rstelle on a chair and for » wonder,findiog herself comfort- able in front of a fire the child was qulet watching her parents with the bewildered eyes of a littls creature without thought. After romoving his clothes, he plunged his head into the water, rubbing 1t with that sof’ soap which had dlscolored and bleached the hair of his face; then Iathering himself all over he stepped into the tub while his wife stood lookiog on. “Say now,” sho began, I saw your look when you came in.

But sbe began rolling up her sleeves pre- paratory to rubbing his back, and taking up some soft soap she lathered his shoul- ders while he braced himself in order to stand the vigorous strokes. “Then I went bask to Malgrat’s, I pleaded with him, saying it would'nt do him any harm to be just. That bothered him; he trled fo get away from me. Now she was making his back shine like her three eaucepsns did onSaturdsy, using the back and forth movement of the arm until she became eo winded that her words choked her. A", last, calliog me an old crank, he s3id we could have bread until Saturday; and the bestof it is that he lent me a hundred sous, I bought some butter, coffse, chicory and even a llttle hogs: I tore it together.

At Inst Lovaque decided to go off to Ras- senenr’s alone, but Mahon still went on planting. Night had fallen; Mrs, Mahon lit the Iamp, provoked that neither the girl nor boys had come In. She knew not one of them would come to joln the only meal which they could take together. More. over, she walted for the dandelions. What could they pick at that hour and In that darkness? A salad was 8o nice with the stew which she bad pu$ on the fire, some potatoes, lecks and sorrel atowed together, and frled onlone, of which ths entlre house smelt; that good odor which noon bocame rank and penstrated the bricks of the alley with euch a smell that they could be so nted afar off in the country, Mahon, afier leaving the gerden when night came on, doz:d on a chalr, his head agalnst the wall.
