up!" He spoke the words loudly.
Then quickly dropping his voice to a
whisper he added: For Gods sake
don't betray her! They saw her with
us-everybody knows that it was the
kings wife with you!"
The kings wife! Nathaniel was
too weak to analyze the words beyond
the fact that they carried the dread
truth Of his fears deep into his soul.
Who would have come to him but
Marion? Who else would have kissed
him? It was her voice that had
whispered in his ear-the thrill of her
hand that had passed over his face.
And this man had said that she was
the wife of the king! He heard the
voices of other men near him but did
not understand what they were say
ing. He knew that after a moment
there was a man on each side of him
holding him by the arms, and me-
chanically he moved his legs, knowing
that they wanted him to walk. They
did not guess how weak he was-how
too great a weight on their hands.
Once or twice they stopped in their
agonizing climb up the hill. On it's
top the cool sea air swept into Ma
thaniel's face and it was like water to
a parched throat.
After a time-it seemed a day Of
terrible work and pain to him-they

and the air that he Dreathed filled his
n~ostrils and throat with the uncom-
Portable thickness of a night fog at
sea. Through it the candle burned in
a misty halo. Near the candle, which
stood on a shelf-like table against n
Of the walls, was a big dish which
caught Nathaniel's eyes.
whats that?" he asked, pointing
toward it.
Grub" replied Neil. "Hungry?"
He went to the table and got the
plate of food. There were chunks Of
boiled meat, unbuttered bread and
cold potatoes. For several minutes
they ate in silence. Now that Ma
thaniel was himself again Neil could
no longer keep up his forced spirits.
Both realized that they had played
their game and that it had ended in
defeat. And each believed that it was
his individual power to alleviate to
some extent the others misery. To
Neil what was ahead of them held no
mystery. A few hours more and then

the victims of this dungeon cell were
shot. Sometimes they were hanged.
But why tell Nathaniel? So he ate
his meat and bread without words.
waiting for the other to speak, as the
other waited for him. And Nathaniel,
on his part, kept to himself the secret
of Marion's fate. After they had done
with the meat and the bread and the
cold potatoes he pulled out his be-
loved pipe and filled it with the last
scraps of his tobacco, and as the
fumes OF it clouded round his head,
soothing him in it's old friendship, he
told of his fight with Strang and his
killing of Arbor Croche.
I'm glad for Winnsome's sake"
said Neil, after a moment. "Oh, if
you'd only killed Strang!"
Nathaniel thought of what Marion
had said to him in the forest.
Neil" he said quietly, do you
know that Winnsome loves you-not
as the little girl whom you toted
about on your shoulders-but as a

others silence he added: when l last
saw M-rion she sent this message to
you-'Tell Neil that he must go, for
Winnsome's sake. Tell him that her
fate is shortly to be as cruel as mine
tell him that Winnsome loves him
and that she will escape and come to
him on the mainland" Like words
of fire they had burned themselves in
his brain and as Nathaniel repeated
them he thought of that other broken
heart hat had sobbed out it's anguish
to him in the castle chamber. Neil,
a man can die easier when he knows
that a woman loves him."
He had risen to his feet and was
walking back and forth through the
thick gloom.
I'm glad!" Neil's voice came tt
him softly, as though he scarcely
dared to speak the words aloud. After
a moment he added: Have you go
a pencil, Nat? l would like to leave
a little note for Winnsome."
Nathaniel found both pencil and
paper in one of his pockets and Mel
dropped upon his knees in the mud
beside the table. Ter minutes latel
he turned to Nathaniel and a grea'
change had come into his face.

MENDING TROUSERS POCKETS
Mrs. BilItops Objects to the One In
qenious Method That Pleases
Her Husband.

GAS some sage has remarked" said
Mr.. Billtops, the longer we lives the
more we finds out. You take, for in
stance, the mending Of a trousers
pocket that has a hole in 1t down at
the bottom, so hat you are in danger
of losing out of it your keys or your
pocket knife or such small change as
you may there carry.
Nov I supposed there were just
three ways Of mending that pocket,
three and no more. One way would
be to put a patch on it, another way
would be to cut off the bottom of the
pocket and sew on a new section, and
still another way would be to put in
an entire new pocket; but the tailor
to whom l took these trousers to be
fixed up has shown me a fourth way
that made me laugh for it's simplicity
and at the same time as thought in
genuity.
He just folded over the bottom of
the pocket high enough up to cover
the hole, and hen just stitched the
pocket across through the folded over
part and the main body Of the pocket.
this you see something that could be
lone in a minute and that at the same
time served it's purpose. l admired
it for its ingenuity and effectiveness,
but Mrs. Billtops doesn't look at it
az | do.
She says that If it's a sloppy way
of mending a pocket, that it makes
the pocket shallower, for one thing,
and that then that folded over part,
making the pocket of double thick
ness, makes a ridge there which is
not desirable. She say that she has
mended pockets that way herself. but
that it is not a good way, and l guess
she's right; she generally is"

CHAPTER iX.-Continued.

He felt the dash of the water in his
face and it put new life into him.
Somebody had raised him to a sitting
posture and was supporting him there
while a second person bound a cloth
about his head. He opened his eyes
and the light of day shot into them
like a singing, burning charge of
n~eedle-points, n he closed them
again with a sharp cry Of pain. That
seconds glance had shown him hat
it was a woman who was binding his
head. He had not seen her face. Be-
yOnd her he had caught a half formed
vision of many people II the glisten-
ing edge of the sea, and as he lay with
closed eyes the murmur of voices
came to him. The support at his back
was taken away. slowly, as if the per-
son who held him feared that he
would fall. Nathaniel stiffened him.
self to show his returning strength
n opened his eyes again. This time
the pain was not so great. A few
yards away he saw q group Of people
n among them were women still
farther away, SO far that his brain
grew dizzy as he looked, there was a
black moving crowd. He was among
the wounded. The Mormon women
were here. Down there along the
~shore-among the dead-had assem-
bled the population of st. James.
A strange sickness overpowered him
and he sank back against his sup
porter. A COO hand passed over his
face. 1t was a soothing, gentle touch
the hand of the omar He felt
the sweep of soft hair against his
cheek-a breath whispering in his
ear.
You will be better SOON
His heart stood still.
You will be better"
Against his rough cheek there fell
the soft pressure of a woman's lips.
Nathaniel pulled himself erect,
every drop of blood in him striving
for the mastery of his body, his vision,
his strength. He tried to turn, but
strong arms seized him from behind.
A mans voice spoke to him, a mans
strength held him. In an agony of APP
peal Marion's name burst from his
lips.
"Sh-h-!" warned the voice behind
him. Are you crazy?
The arms relaxed their hold and
Nathaniel dragged himself to his
knees. The woman was gone. AS far
as he could see there were people
scores of them, hundreds of them
multiplied into thousands and millions
as he looked, until there was only a
black cloud about him. He staggered
to his feet and a strong hand kept him
from falling while his brain slowly
cleared. The millions and thousands
and hundreds Of people dissolved
themselves into the day until only a
handful was left where he had seen
multitudes. He turned his face weak
ly to the man beside him.
'Where did she go?" he asked.
1t was a boyish face into which his
pleading Eyes gazed, a face white with
the strain of battle, redeemed a little
on one cheek with a smear of blood,
and there was a startled, frightened
look in it that did not come Of the
strife that had passed.
Who? What are you talking
about?"
The woman" whispered Nathaniel.
