CHAPTER XIII Continued
Then ho turned Jo Matilda and led
Iier to a sofa and comforted her and
the menservants came and tool away
the dead body Rnd laid It as Anthony
wished on his old masters bed
And In tho great salon now cleared
ot Its offending visitors Cymlln sat
comforting Matilda and finally ques
tloned her In a way that compelled
her to rely In somo measure upon
him
Stephen was hero yesterday ho
nskod
Part ot tho day Ho left here at
four In tho afternoon
Vet tho mallrlder under oath
tiworo this morning that It was Ste-
phen who robbed tho mall
Shp laughed queerly
But If It wns not Stephen who was
It he Insisted and ho looked with
6tich n steady confident gaze Into Ma
tildas face that she crimsoned to he
flngorttps She could not meet his
eyes and she could not speak
I wonder who played atbcltig Ste-
phen de Wick ho said gently And
the sllenco between them was so sen-
sitive that neither accusation nor con-
fession was necessary
I wish that you httd trusted me
You might have dono so and you
know It
After Anthony was burled his will
was read Ho left everything he pos-
sessed to tho Lady Matilda de Wick
and no one offered a word ot dissent
Sir Thomas seemed unusually de
pressed and his lady asked him Ithe
was In any way dissatisfied
No he answered It Is the death
of tho young Lord Nevlllo that gives
me constant regret
Is lie dead Alas Alas Such a
happy handsome youth It Is Incred-
ible raid Lady every
I thought he had run away to the
Americas with your gold and my
mints iowels said Matilda
f wronged him I wronged him
grievously answered t Sir Thomas
V 4 <
autmn found tho family still nt de
Wick Stephen had escaped as had
also his companion conspirators Ma
Bon and Blythej and Matilda could not
hut compliment herself a little on her
share In securing their safety
Towards tho mlddlo of September
Sir Thomas roused lilmselt from his
llfo among flowers and shrubs and
said he must go back to London He
had a sudden deslro for his wharf and
his office and the bearded outlandish
men that he would meet thoro And
as tho ladles also wished to return to
London the beautiful home quickly
put on an air of desertion Boxes lit-
tered the hall they wore only waiting
until tho September rainstorm should
pass away and the roads become fit
for travel
At this unsettled time and In a
driving shower Cymlin and Doctor
Verity were seen galloping up tho
nvenuoone evening Every one was
glad at tho prospect of news and com-
pany Sir Thomas so much so that he
wont to the door to meet the Doctor
Nobodycould be more welcome he
said and pray what good fortuno
brings you here
I come to put my two nephews In
Huntingdon Grammar school I want
them to sit where Cromwell Bat he
answered
AhI this great Cromwell Bald
Lady Jevery but if ho has tho wily
Mazarln at tils disposal why can ho
not find out something about that poor
Lord Neville Has Col Ayrton re-
turned or Is ho also missing
Ha returned some time ago Ho
discovered nothing ofimportance
Then I suppose wo shall see no
more of Lord Neville I nm very Bor
ry He was a good youth and ho loved
Jano Swaffham very honestly
A week after this evening tho Jev
orya were In their own house and Ma
tilda had sent word tq Jane Swaffham
that she wanted to see her Sho
opened her heart on various subjects
to Jane moro especially on Anthony
I kissed the rosy little brat
That wretch of a woman at Tho
Haguo never paid him a farthing
nover oven saw him She intended to
rob me and slay him for a thousand
pounds but under question of tho law
she confessed her crime
What do you think has happened
to him
I thlnlc robbery and murderSomo
one has known orsuspectcd that he
had treasure with him Ho has been
followed and assassinated or ho has
fought and been killed and llttlo Jano
Swaffham is slowly dying of grief and
cruel suspense Sho loves him and
they were betrothed
There was a short silence and then
Matilda said Many brave young
lords havo gone out from home and
friends these past years and never
come back Is Nevilles life worth
more than my brothors lite than
thousands ot other lives I trow not
Butlu the privacy other rpom sho
could nof preserve this temper t
wonder If Rupert slew him she mut-
tered And anon
He would think It no wrong only
piece of goodlack
Ho might also he Jealous of Cluny
l spoke often of tho youths beauty
I did that but of simple mlchief
but Rupert is touchy sometimes cruel
always eagor for gold Poor Janol
CHAPTER XIV
A Little Further On
Tho settlement of tho affairs of Ati
fhony Lynn occupied Sir Thomas
tnuch longer than ho expected and the
Lynns dramatic llfo and death and
tho money and land he had left her
Of course sho said it Is only tem-
porary When theKing comes home
Stephen will bo Earl do Wick and I
shall willingly resign all to him In
tho meantime I Intend to carry out
Anthonys plans for the Improvement
of the estate
When this subject had been talked
well over Jane named cautiously tho
lover ln France Much to her sur-
prise Matilda seemed pleased to on
large on the topic She 8poko herself
Of Prince Rupert and of tho poverty
and Buffering Charles Court were en-
during and Bhe regretted with many
strong expressions Ruperts preseuco
there All he makes Is swallowed up
In tho bottomless Stuart pit sho
said even my youth and beauty have
gonp tho same hopeless road
There was a queer story about
Stephen robbing tho mall and tearing
up the three warrarits > for tho arrest
of Blytho anil Mason and himself
Bald Jano
Did you believe that Jane
Tho mall was robbed The war-
rants were never found Stephen has
a daredevil temp or atv times When
did ypu hear from him
l hear from him very often riow
e
Jane tot it is tho old old story
ropney money money But I am not
going to Btrlp do Wick a second time
forthem then drawing Jane closo to-
t < r and taking her hand she said with
an Impulsive tenderness

THANK PERUNA FOR THEIR
RECOVERY AFTER YEARS OF
SUFFERING
Miss Muriel Armltage 36 Greenwood
Ave Detroit Mich District Organizer
ofths Royal Templars of Temperance
in a recent letter cays
I think that a woman naturally
shrinka from miking her troubles public
but restored health has meant to much
to mo that I feel for the sake of other
suffering women It is my duty to tell
what Peruna has dona for me
I suflered for five years with uterins
irregularities which brought on hysteria
and made me3 physical wreck I tried
doctors from tho different schools of
medicine but without any perceptible
change in my condition In my despair
I called on an old nurse who advised mo
to try Peruna and promised good re-
sults if I would persist and take It reg-
ularly I thought this was tho least I
could do and procured a bottle I knew
as soon as I began taking it that it was
affecting ma diflerently from anything
I had used before and so I kept on tak-
ing it I kept this up for six months
and steadily gained strength and health
and when I had Used filteen bottles I
considered myself entirely cured I am-
a fjrateful happy woman today
Miss Muriel Armttage
Peruna cures catarrh of tha pelvic
organs with the same surety oslt Curea
catarrh of tha head Ieruna has be-
come renowned as a positive cure for
female ailments simply because the all
ments are mostly dua to catarrh Ca-
tarrh is tha causa of tha trouble
Peruna cures tho catarrh The symp
toms disappear
herself ill enough to go to bed but she Is
far from being ablato do her work without
tha greatest exhaustion This is a very
common sight and is almost always due to
pelvic catarrh
It is worse than foolish for so many
women to suffer year after with a disease
that can bo permanently cured
Peruna cures catarrh permanently It
cures old chronic cases as well as a slight
attack the only difference being in tha
lebgthof time that it should take to effect
a cure
If yon do not derive prompt and satisfac-
tory resultMrom the use of Peruna writs
at once to Dr Ilartman giving a full state-
ment of your case and ho will be pleased
to give you his valuable advice gratis
