that he had not told her OF his inten-

He believed the boys story. That

Men IF MRutter and Eggs"

When Philip the Second debated the
question of coercing with fire and SWORD
the Dutchman who did not like the
Spanish Inquisition or taxes, which they
themselves did not vote, the Duke OF
Alva counseled violent measures. Tor
in his eyes the rebels were only men
of butter" Nevertheless he found that
these men so fond of cows and hens
could hold his veterans at bay, finally
overcome them in the field, and after
eighty years leave poor Spain "a broken
backed tiger
Indeed, in time of war country folk
with baskets of eggs and butter excited
no suspicion even to alert sentinels.
Taking advantage of this fact, Sir
Francis We're determined to recapture
from the Spaniards the Zutphen soon

he picked out some Justly and handsome
young soldiers and dressed most OF
them like the Gelderland egg women,
and the rest as Beers. With bundles
of vegetables, baskets of eggs and but
ter, but also with daggers and pistols
inside their clothes, they were ferried
across the river by twos and threes.
They sat near the gate of the fort, be-
ing already, at break of day, chatting
and gesticulating, as if in some tremen-
dous argument about the rise or fall of
market prices Then, according to ar
arrangement, We're sent some cavalry for
ward, as if approaching, and the pre-
tended country people ran in. feigned
terror toward the fort. The gates were
at once thrown open to receive them.
They all streamed in, threw off their
disguises, and in a few minutes were in
possession of the forts of the town,

afterwards lost his life-by being more
