to Mount his horse he muttered to himself:

Oliver Cromwell-humph!'
Then he rode away up through trafalgar
Square and into the Tottenham Court road.
and so on out into the Shires until he came
to Enderby House.
Outside all was as he had left it seven
years before. though the hedges were not so
well kept and the grass longer before the
house. An air of loneliness pervaded all
the place. No one met him at the door. He
rode round into the courtyard and called

learned that four Of CromwelPs soldiers
were quartered in the house. that all the old
servants, save two, were gone, and that two
days before his son had been expelled from
the place by Cromwelrs order. Inside the
house there was less change. Boon COM

son had been, the young mans gay hours
had been spent more away from Enderby
House than in 1t.

expected soon to welcome Charles the Sec

majesty. When Cromwell was driven from

Hearing in London however, that his
father had returned, and was gone on to
the estate, he turIed his horse about and
rode back again, travelling by night chiefly
and reached Enderby House four days af-
ter his fathers arrival there.

PART ".

PART v.
Two months went by. The battle of Dun
bar was fought, and Charles had lost 1t.
Among the prisoners was Garrett Enderby,
who had escaped from his captcrs on the
way from Enderby House to London, and
had joined the Scotch army. He was now
upon trial for his life. Cromwelis anger
against him was violent. The other pris-
oners of war were treated as such, and
were merely confined to prison. but young
Enderby was charged with blasphemy and
sedition. and with assaulting one of Crom-
wells officers-for on that very day that
young Enderby made the assault Crom-
wells foreign commission for John Ender-
by was on its way to Lincolnshire.
OF the four men who had captured Gar
lett Enierby at Enderby House, three had
been killed in battle, and the other had de-
serted. The father was thus the chief wit
ness against his son. He was recalled from
Portugal where he had been engaged upon
CrGmwelrs business.

and puritanical faces of the officers Of the
court-martial. Other questions were nut,
and then came the vital points. To the
first Of these, as to whether young Enderby
had uttered malignant snd seditious ibels
against the protector, the old man would
answer nothing.

watched his father curiously and sullenly.

Sir Richard Slapped Him Across the
Cheek.
IT take a pleasant duty from John En-
derby,s shoulders. my lord! will meet
you at your pleasure!'
The next morning at sunrise Lord Rip
pingdale declared with his last breath that
he did not know the lady was John Ender-
by's daughter, and he begged Sir Richard
wrongs.
Sir Richard came in upon the king at the
moment that his majesty was receiving
John Enderby-a white-headed old man, yet
hale and strong, and wearing the uniform
of the kings guard. The fire of Enderby' S
eye was not quenched. The king advanced
toward him and said:
You are welcome to our court. Squire
Enderby. You have been absent too long.
You will honor US to accept tardy justice
without a price," he added, in a low tone.
Your majesty" said Enderby. for me
justice comes too late, but for my child"
IAN earldom can never come too. late
eh?" asked the king, smiling gayly.
For me, your majesty, all comes too
late except" his voice shook a little
Except the house where l was born"
Charles looked at him gravely.
Upon my soul, Enderby," said he, "you
are a man to be envied. We will not rob
you of your good revenge on our house,
FOR of your independence. But still We
turned lightly toward Felicity-"if she will
not refuse me, she cannot upon the ground
that you refused my father-she shall be
Countess of Enderby in her own right; with
estates il keeping!'
Womanlike, Mistress Felicity had no logi-
cal argument against an honor SO munifi-
Gently ordained.
and now for your estates, who holds
them?" asked the king.
Lord Rippingdale, your majesty" an
swered Enderby.
Yes, yes, my Lord Haman! We have
already sent for him. 1t is long past the
time" His brow darkened.
Sir Richard Mowbray stepped forward
and said:
your majesty, Lord Rippingdale is he
yond obedience or reparation:" and then
he gave the message of the dead man to
John Enderby.
A month later Mowbray was permitted
to return to court, and with him came
John Enderby and the Countess of Ender-
by When Charles was told how matters
had gone between the younger two, he
gave vent to a mock indignant ton, and in
consequence, he made Sir Richard Now
bray an earl also, that, as he said, they
might both be at the same rearness to
him; for etiquette was tyrannical, and yet
he did not know which OF them he loved
better!
AS for the man so long dishonored
Charles swOre that since John Enderby
came not to the king at court, the king
would go to MIN at Enderby. And go he
did in good temper and in great friendship
for many a year.

rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that il is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. IL
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
