Matilda's life during this interval
had been cramped and saddened by
the Inheritance from her previous
years. Really loving Cymlin, she
could not disentangle the many
threads binding her to the old unfor-
,tunate passion, for, having become
wealthy, the Stuarts would not resign
their claim upon her. Thus she was
compelled, often against her will, to
be aware of plots for the assassina-
ton of Cromwell-plots which shock
ed her moral sense, and which gener-
ally seemed to her intelligence exceed
ingly foolish and usless.
She loved Cymlin, but she feared to
marry him. She feared the reproach-
es of Rupert, who. though he.made no
effort to consummate their long en-
gagement was furiously indignant if
she spoke of ending it. Then, also,
she had fears connected with Cymlin,

CHAPTER XIV.
The Fate of Lord c,unv Neville.

'he Fd1e OF Ioro CIuny Neville.
On tides OF glory England was
borne the next three years, to a ma
tional honor and strength which had
never before been dreamed of. Never
in her whole history had the govern
ment been at once so thorough and so
penetrated with desire for honesty
and capacity. For the first time, the
sense of social duty to the state took
the place of the old spirit of loyalty
to the sovereign. For the first time
and only time in the history of Eu-
rope, morality and religion were the
qualifications insisted on by court.
ln the meantime Spain was help
ing Charles with money which was
spent in plots to assassnate the Pro-
tector. The effect of this was sew
eral petitions and addresses offered
i'll Parliament begging Cromwell to
assume the ancient office of King, if
only for the settlement of the nation.
He was quite strong enough to have
taken it. and there was nothing I'M

King would take all meaning out of

not so break with his own past, with
his own spiritual life. and with the
cody men who had so faithfully fol-
lowed and so fully trusted him.
Why should he fret himself about
mere word? All real power was in

Venerable Senator Mistook Criticism
for Eulogy.
At dinner given not long ago to a
crowd of copgenial railroad men
Senator Chauncey M. Depew was, as
usual, the star speaker. In the course
of his random remarks he told story
wherein a certain manufacturer, left
practically alone in his works through
a lockout, was represented as point
ing to the big Office clock over his
desk and saying to his friend:
There are the only two hands in
my Office that never strike"
"Whereupon," said the Senator, 'the
clock struck g."
After the dinner one of Senator De-
pew's friends came up and congratu-
lated him:
Your speech was great" he said
THAT story about the clock is a daisy.
The Senator beamed. Il think it is
pretty good" he said mpdestly.
About five minutes later another
friend came up who was not so eulogis-
tic.
"Chauncey, he said, II think that
story about the clock better every time
l hear it. / think tonight was the
fftieth time.' e
why President Newall says that
story is a daisy expostulated Mr. De
pew. II

PAIN SUFFERED BY MR.. MARSTON
AS GREAT AS MORTAL GAN STAND.

Tor Six Months He Could Not Turn In
Bed-He Tells OF Remedy Which
Has Given Perfect Relief.
The case of Mr.. Marston shows that
sciatica can be cured, and no one afflicted
by it should allow himself to be dis
heartened. He was first stricken about
year ago, and for six months he suffered
pain which he thinks the most intense
that any man could possibly stand
Asked about the details of his remark
able recovery, Mr.. Marston gave the fol-
lowing account: 81 was attacked by a
numbness or dull feeling just back of my
right hip. I didn It know what the mat
ter was, but thought it was simply a
stiffness that would wear away in a
short time. 1t didn't, however, and
soon the pain became so very bad that
every step was torture for me. When 1
finally succeeded in getting home, it was
Just as much as could do to reach my
room and get to bed.
"The doctor was sent for, and when he
had examined me he said / had sciatica.
He prescribed for me, and advised me not
to try to leave my bed. The advice was
unnecessary for I couldn't get out of
bed if 1 wanted to. 1t was impossible for
me to turn from one side to the other.
The moment / attempted to move any
part Of my body, the pain became so ex-
cruciating that / would have to lie per-
fectly motionless
q" suffered this torture for six months
without getting any relief. Then I dis
charged the doctor, and on the advice of
a friend / bought box Of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and began to take them, three
at dose, three times a day. was de-
tsrmined to give them thorough trial.
1.-TWO months after [ began to use
them I was able to leave my bed and
walk about the house, and month later
was entirely cured and able to go about
my work as usual. 1 think DR. Williams
Pink Pills are the best medicine ever
used, and heartily recommend them to
anyone who suffers from sciatica.'

that he will not be able to carry his
rider much longer, he quickly retires,
