Neville had asked to be called early, and before daybreak he camo Into tho parlor ready for his journey.

He clasped Janes hand as It hung by her side, and they walked thus to the threshold. Snow was falling; tho steps were white with it, and the east wind blew It gently In their faces. Mrs. Swaffham laughed and drew her shawl over her head, and Neville laughed also, and with a cheerful word, leaped to hla saddle, his dark figure growing more and more phantom-likthrough the dim dawn and the white veil of the snow. At the gate he wheeled his horse, and, saluting them, vanished into the gray obscurity, which made all things as If they were not. "He did not say much of the Cromwells.

Cromwell himself had gone north-- 1 ward to Perth, and on the Becond of August he took possession of that j city, but while entered it was told that Charles Stuart, with fourteen thousand men, had suddenly left Stirling and was marching towards England. Charles had taken the western road by Carlisle, and It was thought he would make for London. He went at a flying speed past York, Nottingham, Coventry, until ho reached the borders of Shropshire. At Shrewsbury he found tho gates shut against him and his men were so disheartened that tho king burned westward to Worcester, a city reported to bo loyal, where he was received with every show of honor and affection. Meanwhile Cromwell was following Charles with a steady swiftness that had something fateful In it This was to be tho last battle of the civil war, and Cromwell knew It. There was In hla soul, even at Perth, the assurance of victory, and as he passed through the towns , and villages of England, men would not be restrained. They threw down the sickle and the spade In the Held, tho hammer in the forge, the plane at the bench, and catching hold of tho stirrups of the riders, ran with them to the halting place. So, with his ten thousand troops augmented to thirty thousand, he reached Warwick, and making his headquarters at the pretty village of Keynton near by, he gave his men time to draw breath and called a council of war. Cromwell sat at the upper end of a long table. A rough map of the country around Worcester lay before him, and Harrison, Lambert, Israel Swaffham and Lord Evesham were his companions. There were two tallow can-dle- 3 on the table, and their light shone on the faro of Cromwell. At that moment It was full of melancholy, but he saw In an Instant the entrance of Neville, and with an almost Imperceptible movement commanded his approach. Neville laid the letters of which he was the bearer before Cromwell, and bis large hand Immediately covered Is all well? he asked and them. reading the answer In the youths face, added. I thank God! What then of the city? Its panic is beyond describing," answered Neville. "Parliament Is beside itself. But London Is manifestly with the Commonwealth, and every mnn in it Is looking1 to you and to the army for pHiociion. Some, indeed, I met who l ad lost heart, and who thought It better that Charles Stuart should come buck than that England should become a graveyard fighting him.

He tied his horse at the gate and went to her side, and oh, how fair and sweet ha found her! Never had she looked, never had any woman looked In hl3 eyes so Tho eharm of the quiet enthralling. moon was over all; there was no noise, indeed rather a pastoral melancholy with a gentle ripple of talk threading it about plowing and sowing and rural affairs. In a short time the men and women scattered to their work, and Cluny, turning his bright faee to Janes, took both her hands in his and said with eager delight: "Dear Jane! Oh, Darling Jane! how I love you! The words came without Intent. But the heart Is a ready scholar when love teaches, and as they slowly passed through the fields of yellow fullness, finding their happy way among the standing sheaves, Jane heard and understood that heavenly tale which Cluny knew so well how to tell her. Not until they reached Swaffham did they remember that they two were not the whole round world. But words of care and wonder and eager inquiry about war, and rumor of war, soon broke the heavenly trance of feeling In which they had found an hour of Paradise. So the blissful truce was over, and Jane and Cluny were part of the weary, warring, working world again. Cluny knew nothing which could allay fear. He had just come from London. And what of the General's family? asked Mrs. Swaffham; "are they not afraid? "They are concerned and anxious, but not fearful. Indeed, the old Lady Cromwell astonished me beyond words. She smiled at the panic in the city, and said It Is the beginning of triumph. I have seen, I have heard. Rest on my assurance, and until triumph comes, retire to Him who is a sure hiding place. And the light of her aged faee was wonderful. It Is the substance of the tbirg we hope Lambert?" e t con-futlo- - d 1 s J ' n Baths for School Children.

A case has boon recorded In this place recently, which upsets the theory of many physicians that Brights Diseaso la incurable. It la the case of Mr. Lon Manley, whom the doctors told that he could never recover. Mr. Manley tells the story of his case and how he waa cured In this way: "I began using Dodds Kidney Pills after the doctors had given me up. For four or five years 1 had Kidney, Stomach and Liver Troubles; I was a general wreck and at times I would get down with my hack so bad that I could not tilrn myself in bed for throe or four days at a time. "I had soveral doctors and at last they told me 1 had Brights Disease, I and that I could never get well. commenced to use Dodds Kidney Pills and I am now able to do all my work and am all right I most heartily recommend Dodds Kidney Pills and am very thankful for the cure they worked In my case. They saved my life after the doctors had given me up." QUEER DOINGS , I Cromwell Sat wretched girl, this morning.

But you shall come to London also." "Do you think so 111 of me as to believe I would leave my father In the loneliness of de Wick?" And she stood up and kissed her friend, and In a little while they went downstairs together, and Matilda bad some boiled milk and bread and a slice of venison. Then she asked Mrs. Swaffham to let her b&ve a coach to go home In. Mrs. Swaffham kissed her for answer, and they sent her away wfth and comsuch confidence of good-wil- l ing happiness that the girl almost believed days might he bers In the future as full of joy as days In the past had been. After this visit It was cold winter weather, ami Cluny Neville came no more until the pale windy spring was over the land. And this visit wae so short that Mrs. Swaffham, who had gone to Ely, did not see him at all. For he merely rested while a fresh horse was prepared for him, eating a Ilttlo bread and meat almost from Janes hand as he waited. Yet In that half hours stress and hurry, love overleaped a space that had not been taken without it; for as he stood with one hand on his saddlo, ready to leap into It, lane trembling and pale at his side, he saw unshed tears In her eyes and felt the unspoken love on her lips, and as he clasped her band hts heart sprang to hla tongue, and ho said with a passionate tenderness: "Farewell, Jane!
