CHAPTER XXI.

February and March had passed,
and the warm rains of April had be-
gun before the princess was called
cure an interview with the king.
Lawrence Kirby more than once saw
Clara, and brought hernewsOf Ralph's
welfare. The excuse he gave for the
delay was that Ralph had suffered
so much from his three months i'm
prisonment in Cambridge Castle that
it would take him some time to re-
cover his strength. There was an
other reason, but of this Clara was
not informed Simon d'Ypres was in
no hurry The champions of the COM
mons did not consider it advisable to
approach the king too long before the
peasants were ready for action.
One day during the Portuguese am
bassador's stay at Westminster, the
king called at the Wardrobe, where
the princess was lodged, and was told
that Ralph Hardelot was in waiting
to see him. The princess was most
unwilling to encourage her son, who
was not yet quite fifteen. to do any
thing without the advice of his ap-
pointed guardians and counsellors,
but she held herself bound by her pro-
mise to Clara. and thought no harm
could come of giving the young man
an opportunity. of clearing himself.
Richard looked displeased at first,
but catching Clara in the act of steal
ing an anxious look at his counten-
ance. he turned to her and began to
rally her on another subject. "Ah,

How 1t Turned an Honest Woman In
to an Impostor.
The Spectator gives the following in
stance of how ready and practical SYM
pathy with distress converted one OF
the deserving poor into persistent
professional beggar. The journal says:
We knew Of woman who was de-
serted by her husband and left to sup
port several children. She was a good
needlewoman, and also she had unfOr-
tunately the pen of ready writer.
She sent bundles Of needlework to
various ladies whose names were
known to her. together with letter in
which she described her struggles to
feed and clothe her children, alluded
delicately to "a sad crisis" In which
her husband lost heart and left her,
asked that three shillings and SIX
pence, or less" might be paid to her
for the articles sent. but enclosed TWO
stamps for their return should they not
be required. Sometimes she wrote OF
the difficulty of sparing the twopence;
sometimes she frankly remarked that
she enclosed the money to impress her.

her correspondent.

Observation-Disclosures NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

the DISCONTINUED peasants knew the
valne Of definite demand, the justice
of which was widely felt. in binding
scattered units together. A novel and
unpopular tax to which every adult
was liable gave them additional lever
age.
The time was now ripe for formulat-
ing their demands and supporting them
by what is known in international pol
itics as "moral demonstration; the
demonstration being made in this case
not with ironclads, but by great ris-
ing OF the poor commons with arms in
their hands. 1t was hoped that the
mere show of strength would suffice.
That their professions on this head
were sincere was abundantly proved by
their subsequent conduct.
But first the young king-from whom
personally they were to demand eman-
cipation, and of waom they had more
hope than of older men hardened in
their iniquities-must be clearly in
formed as to their objects and assured
of their loyalty to his person. No
show of strength could be made till
midsummer, when the days were long
and the nights we're warm, and there
was little work to be done in the fields
but meantime the kings mind might
be prepared for their demands.
And for this mission, John Kirby,
who passed under the name Of Simon
d'Ypres and other aliases, thought of
Ralph Hardelot. 1t was mission not
without danger, as Kirby well knew.
But Ralph was of the stuff Of which
martyrs are made. There was no
reason why he should be denied his
destiny. At any rate, somebody must
be had for the service, and Ralph was
at hand.
His liberation from Cambridge Cas-
tie was easy enough. 1t was simple
matter of bribery. With an inconsis-
tency of which perhaps he was not
conscious, Kirby did not hesitate to
make use of the corruption that it
was his aim to uproot. If it did cross
his mind that there was any harm in
bribing Ralph's jailers. the end doubt
less justified the means.
There was greater difficulty in per-
suading Ralph to take the liberty Of
fered him. He chung Obstinately to
the idea that escape would look like
guilt; but at last when all that Law
renee had learned was made known
to him, he was brought to see that in
escape lay his only chance of clearing
his character.

ASKING cumbersome blankets

Washing Cumbersome blankets and
hedspreads has been one of the I'M
pleasant things of housework.
If you use Peosta Soap there is Moth
ing difficult about it.
Wooden blankets should not be
soaked, but should be washed in tepid
water with good suds of Peosta. Rub
firmly between the hands and the
cleansing will be thorough; the blank
cts will be soft and fresh and keep
their Misunderstanding qualities for

Bedspreads should be soaked in
Peosta an hour and few rubs on the

Peosta is soap that simplifies the
