In one of the can

Schmidt was em
ployed. It was com

cause she did seal

of the work. It was
strenuous work and
she was not a strong
girl. Often she forced herself to work
when she was hardly able to sit at her
machine. At times she would have to
stay at home for she was so weak she
could hardly walk. For five years she
was In this weakened condition.
She tried various medicines. At last,
friend of hers spoke of'Lydla E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
she gave It a trial.
"Everyone says I am a healthier and
stronger girl," she writes. "I am rec
ommending the Vegetable Compound to
all my friends who tell me how they
suffer and I am willing to answer let
ters from women asking about It"

Harry Ormerod. proscribed
traitor to King George as a Stu
art partisan, returning from
France to London, rescues Alder
man Robert Juggins from assas
sins. Juggins proves to be the
grandson of a former steward
of Ormerod's father, to whom
Juggins feels himself Indebted.
Ormerod tells' Juprglns he has
abandoned the Stuart cause.
Juggins Informs him of a Jaco
bite plot In the American colo
nies to weaken England by for
warding French Interests. At its
head is Andrew Murray, a Scots
man, and a Frenchman, De
Veulle, deadly enemy of Or
merod. The two are In London
furthering their schemes. An
ticipating the plotters' return to
America, Juggins arranges for
Ormerod to go there with letters
to Governor Burnet, friend of
Juggins, and work to foil Mur
ray. Disguised as Juggins' serv
ant, Ormerod takes passage to
America. On the ship he meets
a girl, Murray's daughter, ardent
Jacobite, who believes him to be
loyal to the Stuarts. De Veulle
recognises Ormerod and exposes
him. Taken by surprise, Or
merod is thrown overboard by
the negro. Tom, but regains the
deck In safety. He accuses Mur
ray of inciting Tom to murder
him. but of course can prove
nothing. A truce Is declared un
til the vessel reaches New York.

"That is true," I assented.
"There Is somewhat I would venture
to observe upon, if you will permit
me," he continued detachedly. "You
are a youth of boldness and courage.
You possess intelligence. You may go
far in the provinces, always supposing
you do not succeed in winning a par
don. I opine that a pardon might be
won if you went about it In the right
way. There are gentlemen at White
hall, who"
His hesitation was eloquent.
"And you would suggest?" I asked
him, faintly amused as I perceived the
drift of his Intention.
"Think well before you commit your
self to this venture. You cannot hope
to overcome me. Why, the governor
of this province, with all the semi
regal powers at his command, has
failed to balk me In my plans. My
Influence Is no less in London. If you
continue as you have begun you will
end, I fear, in an early grave. I say
It not as a threat 'Tis merely a pre
diction." "I fear me I should lose your good
opinion did I take your advice," I re
plied. He looked me straight In the eyes.
"You would," he said curtly, and he
turned on his heel and left me.
Three hours Inter we lay at anchor
In the East river under the lee of
Nutten island, which some called the
Governor's because It was a part of
his official estate. Small boats landed
us at a wharf on a canal which ran
up Into the town along the middle of
Broad street. From here I had my
baggage carried by a waterman to
the George tavern In Queen street,
which he recommended as being fa
vored by the gentry.
Murray's party I overheard giving
directions for the conduct of their ef
fects to Cawston's tavern in Hanover
square.
After a meal I Inquired of Master
Kurt van Dam, the proprietor of the
George, where I might find Governor
Burnet. Van Dam was a broad-bodied,
square-headed Dutchman. He sat In
the ordinary, smoking a long clay pipe.
"Der gofernor Is at Cabtain van
Home's," he said, and Immediately
replaced his pipe in his mouth.
"And where is Captain van Home's
house?" I asked.
"In the Broad-Vay not far oOp from
der fort. Ydu valk across through
Hanofer square." 1
I thanked him and walked forth.
In Hanover square, which was only
a few steps distant, there was a crowd
collected about the entrance to Caws
ton's tavern. Murray was standing
in the doorway, Tom on one side of
him, and a huge, red-haired giant in
buckskin,' with knife and tomahawk
at his belt on the other. I stared at
the red-haired man', for he was the
first woodsman I had seen, observing
with curiosity his shaggy locks and
fur cap and the brutal ferocity of his
face.
I stared so long that I attracted the
attention of Murray, who broke off his
conversation with the group surround
ing him, and with a pale smile pointed
me out to his buckskin retainer. The
man scowled at me, and one hand
went to his knlfe-hilt.
I spoke to the citizen nearest me.
"Pray, sir, who is the tall fellow In
buckskin on the steps?"
The man edged away from me sus
piciously. .
"I am a stranger in your town," I
added.
"'Tis a frontiersman." he replied re?
ftictantly ; "one catlad 'Bed Jack' Boll-Uur"
"An ugly knave," I commented.
But the citizen only eyed mo
askance, and I walked on. I was pass
ing through Bridge street, with the
leafing tree-boughs overhead and the
walls of Fort George before me, when
another and smaller crowd rounded
the corner from the Broad-Way, n
street which formed the principal thor
oughfare of the town and took Its
name from the wide space between the
house-walls.
In the lend came an Indian. lie was
the first of his race I chanced to see,
and sure, 'tis strange that we .were
destined to be friends aye, more than
friends, brethren of the same clan. He
was a large man, six feet In his moc
casins, and of about the same age as
myself. He stalked along, arms swing
ing easily at his side, wholly Imper
vious to the rabble of small boys who
tagged behind,' yelling and shrieking
at him.
He was naked from the waist up,
and on his massive chest was painted
in yellow and red pigments the head
of a wolf. He wore no other paint,
and he was weaponless, except for the
tomahawk and knife which hung at
his belt
The children danced around him so
many little animals. They never
touched him, but some of the more
venturesome hurled pebbles from the
walk at his brawny shoulders. I can
not repeat the catch-calls and rhymes
which they employed, some of them
too disgusting for print.
I looked to see some citizen Inter
vene, but several who sat on their
doorsteps or lounged In front of shops,
smoking the Inevitable pipe, viewed
the spectacle with indifference or open
amusement.
My wrath boiled over, and I charged
down upon the tormentors.
"Be off," I shouted. "Have you no
proper play to occupy your time?"
They fled hilariously, pleased rather
than outraged by the attack, after the
perverse habit of children who prefer
always to be noticed Instead of Ig
nored, and I was proceeding on my way
when I was dumfounded by hearing
the Indian address me.
"Hold, brother," he said in perfect
English, but with a certain thick gut
tural accent. "Ta-wan-ne-ars would
thank you."
" You speak English!" I exclaimed.
A light of amusement gleamed In his
eyes, although his face remained ex
pressionless as a mask.
"You do not think of the Indian as
these ignorant little ones do?" he
asked curiously.
"I I know nothing of your people,"
I stammered. "I am but tills day land
ed here."
"My brother Is an Englishman?" he
questioned, not Idly but with the cour
teous interest of a gentleman.
"I am."
"Ta-wan-ne-ars thanks you, Eng
lishman." He extended his hand.
Excess of Gratitude
Gratitude, In many people, Is only a
strong and secret desire for further
favors. I believe It was Goethe who
wrote: "He who Is not grateful for a
favor may be likened to one w.ho mud
dies the spring from which his thirst
was quenched."
When gratitude, I heard another
say, has become a matter of reason
ing, there are many way3 of escaping
its bonds. This is only another man
ner of saying that he who expects
gratitude is a merchant, not a bene
factor. Gratitude, which the ancients
always painted In the brightest colors,
Is one's duty, but It Is not an inalien
able right one is at liberty to exact.
Honore de Balzac, in probably one of
his less lucid moments, wrote that
"Your kindness Was the greater be
cause you obeyed It by Instinct,"
I regarded him with Increasing
umitKetneiit Who was this savage who
talked like a London courtier?"
"I helped you," I said, "because you
were a stranger In a strange city, and
by the laws of hospitality your com
fort should be assured."
"That Is the law of the Indian, Eng.
llshman;" he answered pleasantly;
"but It Is not the taw of the white
man."
"It Is the law our religion teaches,"
I remonstrated. "I go now to Gov
ernor Burnet. I shall ask him to make
a law that Indians shall be as safe
from mockery as from violence la New
York."
"Governor Burnet Is a good man.
My brother will speak to friendly
ears."
"You call me brother," I said. "1
have no friends In this land. May 1
cull you brother?"
That wonderful expression of burn
ing Intelligence lighted his fuc
again.
"My brother has befriended Ta-wan-ne-ars.
Ta-wan ne-ars Is his friend
and brother. Ta-wun-ne-ars will not
forget."
He raised his right hand arm high
In the gesture of greeting or farewell,
u nil we separated.
CHAPTER V
The Governor in Council
Where Harden street crosses the
Broad-Way I met the town bellrlnger
brandishing his hell. I approached
him with u request for the locution of
Captain van Home's house.
"Do you but follow your nose
straight before you," he directed me,
"until you come to the red-brick man
sion with the yellow-brick walk this
side of the Green lime. That Is his."
The negro servant who answered my
knock admitted timt the governor was
within.
"But Massa Burnet done hah de
pen'lemen ob de council wld hint Jus'
now, sah," he added doubtfully.
"I am This minute landed with let
ters for the governor from London," I
said.
"Oh, bery well, sah. Pat be a dlf
runt matter. Massa Burnet be plumb
glad to see yo'. Dis way, please."
He ushered me Into the wide hall
way and knocked on the door of the
first room on the right.
"Enter," roared a Jovial bass voice.
The negro threw open a leaf of the
door and stood aside.
"DIs gen'lenuin done 'Jus' Inn' Tom
London wlf letters fo' yo' excellency,
he announced.
I saw before me a group of eight
men gathered around a dinner-table,
which was spread with maps and pa
pers In place of eatables. At the head
sat the man of the buss voice, ruddy
faced, comfortable In girth, with the
high forehead of the thinker and the
square jaw of the man of action.
"I am Governor tBurnet, sir," he
said. "Who are you?" .
"These letters will explain, your ex
cellency," I replied.
I tendered them to him.
"Hah, from Master Juggins I" he ex
claimed with heightened Interest. "You
sailed on the New Venture?"
"Yes, your excellency with Master
Murray."
"That Is well. Be seated, sir; be
seated," ordered the governor as he
silt the packet.
I found a chair by the fireplace, and
watched In silence whilst he read
through the close-writ pages, with an
occasional word or Interjection to the
others, who had risen from their
places and were clustered about him.
They were, as I afterward learned, the
most prominent men of the governor's
fnctlon In the province, who strove to
clinch the control of the fur trade In
English hands.
"Sol' Humph!"
The governor laid down the cover
ing letter which accompanied the de
tailed report of the operations of Mur
ray In London.
"You are Master "
He examined the letter again.
"Humph! Yes."
He turned from me to his councilors.
"It Is nppnrent from what Master
Jugglns.hns writ that Murray has tri
umphed,' gentlemen, even If not so ab
solutely as he would have our citizens
believe. However, we know the worst,
and we may prepare for It. If I may
have your Indulgence. I would crave
an adjournment of our meeting to en
able me to discuss some aspects of the
situation more Intimately with Master
Juggins' messenger."
Ormerod Is to get an Inkling
of the power an unscrupulous
man can wield by the employ
ment of superstition to Influ
ence an Ignorant people and at
tain leadership.
