I gath red my cloak around me and sknlked closer to the nearest house-wall. Could It be possible the I!ow Street runners bad picked up my trail again t And a new worry assailed me. Did the cry come from In front or behind? The fog that mantled London, and which so far had stood my friend, now served to muffle the source of this sud den alarm. Which way should I turn? "Watch t Curse the sleepy varlets P The bouses past which I had beeu feeling my way came to an end. A11 alley branched oft to the right and from Its entrance echoed the click of steel music after my own heart. The blood coursed faster In my veins. No, this could be no trap such as had awaited me ever since I had stepped from the smuggler's small boat Here was sword-play, a welcome change from the plotting and Intrigue which bad sickened me. I cast my cloak back over my shoul der and drew my sword from Its sheath, as I ran over the uneven cob bles which paved the alley. Dimly I saw before me a confused huddle of figures that tussled end stamped about In the ghostly mirk of the fog. "Hold, friend," I shouted. "Slake haste," panted a voice from the middle of the group, One man agnlnst a gang of assassins t So that was the story. It savored more of Paris than of the staid London of merchants and shopkeepers over which the Hanoverian exercised his stolid sway. But I had scant time for philosophy. They were on me In an instant, one as sailant In front, an assassin on either hand, slashing with hangers. and cut Inses that knew no tricks of fence, but only downright force. Their former prey was left with one to handle. "Get to his rear, one of you fools." snarled the ruffian In command whilst he pounded at my guard. But I backed Into a handy doorway and barely managed to fend them off. And all the while the real object of their attack continued his appeals for the wstch. Twas this which spoiled the fray for me. I could not but wonder, as I dodged and parried and thrust, what would happen If his cries should he heard and the watch ap(ear. Would they know me? Or perchance should I have the opportunity to slip quietly away? I stole a glnnce about me. Several windows had gone up along the street and nlghtcapped heads protruded to add their clamor to that of my friend. Surely Aye. they had done It. Tie ruffian on my left leaped back with ear aslant toward the alley en trance. "Quick, bullies," le yelled. "Tit the watch V With a celerity that was rlmost un canny they disengaged their blades snd melted lnt the fog. Their foot falls dwindled around the comer as I detected the cl imping footfalls of the approaching gaardlans of London's peace. This brought me to my senses. I sheathed my siord and ran across the roadway, glunong to right and left for the best route it escape. But I reck oned without tfie other participant In our brawl. "Be at ease, eiy master," he said In a voice which lad a good thick Dorset burr In It I liked him from that mo ment I sounded so homelike; I could fairly see the tolling fields, the water meadows, the copses, all the scenes that had meant ao much to me In boy hood, even the sprawling roofs and chimney stilus of Foxcroft house Itself. "TIs anly the watch you hear. Iiurk to the J 1 fling of their stares." "I know thtt full well, my friend," I answered him, gonseflesh rising on my neck as the Jlnrling staves and clump ing feet drew Hearer. "But I happen to have pressitg reasons for avoiding the watch." My friend ptrsed his lips In a low whistle. "80, sets the wind In that quarter! Yet you came t'ast enough to my help against those cut-purses a moment back." I laughed. The watch were all but In the alley's mouth. Twas Idle to think of rut111lt.tr now. "Oh, I am no highwayman," I said. "Well, whatever you may be, you aided Robert Jiggins In his peril, and twill be a sore pity If a worshipful aldermun of the city may not see you through the sciutlny of a bund of lazy bench-loafert." "That Is gonil hearing," I answered. "Will they hiive your description?" "I think not hut If they ask me to account for myself I shall be at fault I am but lately landed from France, and I have do passport." He pursed his lips once more In the quaint form of a low whistle. "I begin to tee. There Is a foreign cut to your wlj that I do not Ilka," he commented. "However, we will bra fen It out Ii re they come." The watchmtn rounded the corner Into the alley, lanterns swinging high, Slaves poised, "Ho, knaves,' ' proclaimed pompous IflDflMI TEAI1L J5y Arthur D. Howden Smith 4urAor of PORTO BELLO COLD, Etc. voice, "stand and deliver yourselves to us." "And who may you be?" demanded my friend. "No friends to brawlers and disturb ers of the peace, sirrah," replied the stoutest of the watchmen, stepping to the front of his fellows. "We are the duly constituted and appointed con stables and watchmen of his honor the worshipful lord mayor." "It would be nearer the truth to say that you are the properly constituted and habitual sleepers and time-servers of the city," snnpped my companion i "Draw near, and examine me.' "Nay, sir," adjured the captain 0 the watch portentously, "do you ap-j proach and render yourselves to us. 'TIs not for lawbreakers to order the city's watchmen how they shall be ap prehended." "You fool," said my friend very pleasantly, "If you would only trust your eyes you would see a face you have many times seen before this aye, and shall see again In the morn- Ing before the bench of sheriffs when you plead forgiveness for your dila tory performance of the dalles Intrust ed to you." My friend left my side and strode toward the captain of the watch, who gave back a pace or two until he felt the stomachs of his followers at his back. 'How, now," said he who had called himself Itobert Juggins, "hold up that lantern, you, sirrah, with the shaking arm. I.ix.k Into my fne, laxy dogs that you are. Iiost know me?" He poked his finger Into the fat figure of the captain. "Sure, you are Master Jurglns," as sented that official with sullen reluc tance. "And Is an alderman of the city and a cupmate of the lord mayor and sher iffs snd the warden of the Worshipful Company of Merchant Traders to the Western Plantations, on his way home from a meeting of his guild, within the city precincts aye. In Mincing laue, under the shadow of Paul's I say am I to be held tip by rut-purses, stabbed In the arm, forced to defend my very life and then denounced and threat ened .with arrest by the watchmen paid by the city to protect its cltl sent? "You stand here trying to prove 'tis t, and not they, who have sought to rob myself. Co to I Ye are worthless, and I shall see that the sheriffs anil the magistrates at Bow Street know of It." "But we will be after the scoundrels. worshipful Master Alderman," pleaded the captain. "Can you but give us a description of he knaves?" "Shall I do your work for you?" re plied Master.

In the morning you may let me know Franklin Would Have Tha first third of the Nineteenth century was the heyday of Stafford shire ware decorated with pictures. And not the least Interesting of this china was the series picturing muxims, proverbs and morals. Of this didactic china many pieces carried reproductions of "Poor Men ard's" sayings, which our great Amer ican, Benjamin Franklin, Industrious- circulated through his Poor Weil ard l's Almanack for 23 years. The Poor Itlclurd maxims were very near to Franklin's heart, and he let no chance slip to get them into arronfi-r circulation. One of his DroJ- - ects which, however, was not car- d out was to Imprint on one side the cornier coins of the new Amer ican republic some proverbs of Solo- WNU Servle what you have done. I will then eon alder whether your belated efforts may overset your cowardice and laul ness In the beginning. "It shall he as you say, good Master Juggins," assented the captain meek ly. "Which way went your assail ants?" "What? More questions?" exploded Master Juggins. "Nay, this Is too much." The watchmen turned In their tracks and herded out of the alley like bewildered cattle, all clumping hoots, Jingling staffs, waving lunterns and Jumbled wits. My savior removed his hat and mopped his brow with a white kerchief. "So much for that" he remarked cheerfully. "Now But he was Interrupted from an tin' expected quarter. The captain of the watch returned alone. "I crave your pardon. Master Jug gins," he began. "But we have been warned to keep a watch for a danger ous malefactor, an enemy of the state, one Ormerod, an emissary of the Pre tender who Is here on an errand against the crown." Juggins favored me wish a cursory glance of a somewhat peculiar nature. It was not exactly hostile, and yet much of the friendliness which had characterised his manner was gone. I felt cold chills running down my hsck. Would he give me up? What right after all had I to expect better treatment from a total stranger, a man who had nothing to gain from shield ing me? "flo on," ssld Juggins coldly to the watchman, withdrawing his attention from me. "Why, worshipful sir, there la no more to say.' It la Just thst I thought, the attack being made upon you, a well known citizen. It might have been" "And how should I know this per son of whom you speak r "Why, sir, that I csnnot " "Be about your duties, sirrah," In terrupted Master Juggins, "and pester me no longer." The rsptaln stumped off to where his faithful hsnd awaited htm, the sev eral curlous-mlnded cltlxens who had listened to the altercation from the vantnge-point of their bedroom win dows retired to resume their slumbers, snd Master Juggins strode bsck to my side. "Is your name Ormerod?" he asked. "I am Harry Ormerod, once a cap tain of foot under the duke of Ber wick ; and I formerly had the honor to be chamberlain to the man whom some people call King James the Third." "You are a rebel, a conspirator against the crown T" "I do not exiiect yon to believe me, of course," I answered as lightly as I could, "but I am not a reliel In spirit or Intent, at any rate and I am not conspiring against the Crown at this moment although ! have done so In the past and I am at this moment a fugitive from Justice." "Humph," aatd Master Juggins thoughtfully. He stood there In the middle of the alley, caressing his shaven chin. "Ormerod," he murmured. "Harry Ormerod. But surely of course why, you are Ormerod of Foxcroft In Dor set" "I shook my head ssdly. "No, my friend; If you know thst story you must know thst I was Or merod of Foxcroft house." Master Juggins was suddenly all animation. "I know It well," he returned. "You and Charles, your elder brother, were both out in the '10. Charles died In Scotland, and you escaped with the remnants of the expedition to France." "And Foxcroft house was seques trated to the Crown," I amended bit terly. "The Hampshire branch bare It now," went on Mnster Juggins. "They tosdled It through the Pel hums."
