Henry had more trouble with his
sons, however, and they imbittered his
life, as the sons of too frolicsome father
are apt to do. Henry, Jr., died repentant,
but Geoffrey perished in his sins in a
tournament, although generally the tour

life seemed to call loudly for good,

Richard Kyur duh le ong, as the
French have it, or Richard 1 of the
lion heart reigned in his fathers stead
from 1889 to 1899. His reign opened
with a disagreeable massacre. The Jews,
who had brought him some presents to
wear at his inaugural ball, were insult

the king favored a massacre, and so
many were put to death.

Irish chief Strongbow noticed a royal
wink on the features Of Henry, and act

other precincts Of Ireland. Thus in ll72
the island was placed under the rule of
a vicerOy sent there by England.
Henry now had trouble with three of
his sons, Henry, Richard and Geoffrey,
who threatened that if the old gentle
man did not divide up his kingdom
among them they would go to Paris and

self was greatly talked about and his
name coupled with that of fair Rosa
mond Clifford, rival Of Queen Eleanor.
The king refused TO grant the request of
his sons and bade them go ahead with
their roue enterprises so long as they
did not enter into competition with him.
So they Went to Paris, where their
cuttings up were not noticed The queen
took their side as did Louis of France
and William, king Of Scotland. With
the Beckett difficulty still keeping him

seemed that he would have to seek other
employment, but his mastery hit in

In the fifth century Ireland was con-

delicate that her mother took her away
to the south of France, where, soon
after, Herbert followed them.
My sic seemed willing for the we'd
ding TO take place whenever they liked
to arrange it. So matters were being
hurried on to suit the impatient lover,
when, one day. Gertrude ran into the
room where Mysie and Herbert were
sitting.
Look, Mysie!" she cried Here's a
lovely bunch of flowers from that dear
count! Isn't he silly? And they are
such beauties. Only smell them. 0, |
an SO pleased! Look! here is bit of
heliotrope and some maiden-hair that
will just do for you"
To her surprise Mysie turned as pale
as death, and shrank back, looking al
most appealingly at her lover, who was
watching.
AS their eyes met there was some
thing i'll his-an expression, a con-
sciousness, a what? Mysie did not
know, but great trembling came over
her.
A hundred thoughts seemed to pass
through her mind in a moment; but
Of one thing she was certain-EIerbert
Castleford knew all about those play
full, loving words spoken out on the
terrace on the never-to-be- forgotten
night.
Then, leaning forward, she asked, as
if they had already been speaking to
one another:
"IIow did you send it from New
York;"
'I---that is-what do you mean, My
sie?-I never sent it,"
Seeing that Mysie's clear eyes seemed
to read him through, he attempted no
more denial, but caught her hands in
his, and i1nplored her to forgive him.
II came cut to look for you that
night" he said, land I heard what you
were saying just as Gertrude came
upon you from the other side; and 1t
was such temptation, for loved you
dearlv-much better than he did. It
was all done for love of you, Mysie!"
And she tried to wave him away, but
instead fell fainting to the ground.
When she recovered Herbert Castle
ford had gone. a few hasty lines from
him besought her forgiveness, and told
her that Godfrey was now on his way
back to England TO find out why she
had not written to him, and that he
hoped they would have been married
before Geoffrey could arrive, but that
low he would go away and never
trouble her again.
"You will forgive me, Godfrey, won't
you,' she said, "for doubling you like
that? But it seemed SO terribly true!
