CHAPTER III. Weymouth now bethought himself of his two sleeping companions, and espec ially of the mysterious occupant of the curtained 1d. Ho leaned over and took the bottle from the henrtlf and pretended to take a long drink. He saw the curtains move again and felt that there were eyes behind them. The house was very still, there was a dtiH droning of wind In the chimney. Weymouth smacked his lips and Whltled another bar of his tune. "I'll soon see who you are lying there ready to rob me, or to open the door to those who will," he said undw his breath as he reached for the guttering candle that stood on the mantel shelf. With the bottle stHl In his other hand he went to Rogers and tried to wake him. Insisting that they must soon be starting, and loudly offering the en couragement of more drink or more pay, as If he were possessed by a be sotted man's generosity. Rogers was In a, stupor, not asleep,, and presently Weymouth crossed the room to the other bed; but one thing meanwhile had been made plain. The candle had chone Into the dark corner of the cell ing and revealed what his eyes had anxlouflly sought for as he sat waiting with forced patience by the Are. A wide board had been nailed from one heavy beam to another of the celling, making a shelf into which something was crowded that dropped over the edge In unmlstakeable folds; to make sure he reached to touch It and his Gilmore's Aromatic Wiw A tonic for ladies. If you are suffering from weakness, and feel exhausted and ner vous; are getting thin and all run down; ' Gilmore's Aro matic Wine will bring roses to your cheeks and restore you to flesh and plumpness. Motners, use it for your daughters. It is the best regulator and corrector for ailments peculiar to woman hood.; It promotes digestion, enriches the blood and gives lasting strength. Sold by llatthews Bros., Scranton!, hand was entangled among the cords of a new net. There was only one thing to do; a man did not wish to frighten an old daf and crippled body, but a careful look would do no harm, and though his heart thumped for the first time, he s tyett Out of tho Window and Let Himself Down. threw open the curtains. There was only a decent old cap with white bord ers, and a face turned away Into the pillows.. For ah intttant he looked down compassionately and with a sense of relief, the newt Instant ho saw at the foot of the bed among the bedclothes, which were strangely disarranged, the large muddy riding boots of a man. "Poor old granny!" he laughed aloud, as If he were unconscious of being be sieged, and were growing more foolish and comfortable every moment with his drink. "A little grog won't do'ee no harm. I'll rouse the old mother and give. her a taste o' gin. She looks a bH blue and cold. Too old anyway to be on the road such weather." He brought the bottle hastily from' beside Rogers, and bent down close to the cap. "Rise up now granny, an' take a taste!" he counseled her, persuasively. '"Twill warm'ee, dear, There- was a moment of hesitation, and Weymouth lifted the becapped head and held the bottle to the Hps. The attack was too sudden and unex pected; the watcher was, for some rea son, not ready to declare himself or to provoke an open quarrel; the light was dim, and with much choking and spill ing the liquor went down an unwilling throat. As the peaceful figure with Its grand motherly cap recognized the bitter dram and rose with fury, a straight blow from Weymouth's fist and two or three more that followed, laid the dis arranged headgear back among the pillows, and stunned Its wearer into harmtessnens. Then Weymouth pulled the net from Its shelf, after dropping the bottle as If It had fallen from a tipsy man's hand, and, catching the stout tongs from the fireplace, he hur ried to the window and opened It softly. It looked far to the ground, but he has tily pushed out the loose armfuls of the net and heard them drop softly, then, fastening a stout twist of the end about the bars of the tongs and bracing them across the corner, he got out of the window, li't himself down, let go the window-Bill, and lowered away down by stretching loops and tangles, bump ing and swinging life a pendulum against the stone walls until he came to the ground. It was a breathless beginning of a most uncertain Journey, yet while Wey mouth sat for a moment on the narrow ledge of rocky ground the freedom and freshness of the winter night seemed sweet enough, after the damp and chill of the room he had left. Such Is human nature, the alternate prey of fear and careless pleasure. Weymouth could hear no footsteps, he could see but dimly the steep road above at his right, below, the hill was steeper still, and looked perilous as he started to find his way down. Even a man who Is bold nt heart feels all the Instincts and stenlthlness when he Is a hunted man, the prey Instead of the pursuer. At this Instant there came a faint sound from the roadway close by. There wus something moving. There was the lenst sound like a hlAs, and then one pebble was tapped agalnt an other as he still crept downward. Ills heart seemed to stop a gust of wind caught the light net and swished It to and fro against the house, He flat tened himself against the ground 'and clutched the sod with his fingers, then he dropped one foot slowly over the edge to find the shelf below. The buiv den of the wallet hindered him so that he longed to get rid of It. Suddenly he heard an eager whisper; "This way! Come this wayl Wey mouth!" 1 1 ; The dim shape showed Itself plainer now above him. A woman knelt a.t the wall above, reaching down' to give him a hand whose touch he well knew; He quickly found his footing now and was helped, up the steep scramble and stood With her In the road. , ' . . ' "Come, come," she urged In a' whis per, "they will be keen after us! .'tis for your life!" - She started off Instantly down the hill toward the water and he followed. They were running on turf, not gravel, and made no sound. As he ran by her side she pushed htm back Impatiently, 'Keep away, don t come near!" she said. "Hurry, for heaven's sake!1! ., i " As they reached the low ground the light figure' that flitted before Wey mouth led him into a path that ran low down on the landward side of the dyke, which must have been made partly, by cattle and partly by men who shielded themselves from the fierce north winds of winter which blew across the water. Two figures could easily have been seen in the smooth path that ran along the dyke top, but here they were shel tered and the silent guide took a slower pace as they passed some thickets of osiers. Once she stopped and motioned to him and crept up the dyke side. Weymouth followed, and they saw that they were nearly abreast of the fishing smack or smuggler If such she were. There was a boat Just leang her, a lantern was held for an instant over the side and then was hidden again. Weymouth looked back at the house on the height; they were now perhaps half a mile away. There were no lights In the windows, even In that which he hud left, but. by this time the wretched guttering candle would have melted and sucked Itself Into extinction. With out a word they both stepped back to the path aguln, and ran on until the leader turned from the dyke across a wide ditch which was bridged by some unsteudy planks. The meadow was wet under foot, they lost and found again a narrow causeway that led among the upland fields and presently stopped to take breath beside an overgrown hedge. "lie still,", said the woman, anxiously, for Weymouth forgot everything ex cept that they were lovers. "Bpeak soft!" and she moved away a little, but still left her hand In his. "A Voice car ries far In this mist; we are not out of danger yet." She was panting for breath; the'y hnd come nearly a mile at a fine, steady pace for the most part. There was a singing in Weymouth's ears as he unified the strap of his pouch to the other shoulder; to Bee her agin was worth whatever might befall. '"Twos a hard day's ride," he said, boyishly, "and here I'm on the road again." '"TIs a mercy, then!" Bald the woman, roughly, but the mother that Is In every wife has mercy for the boy that Is In every husband, and she and Wey mouth were lovers, and so. she began to pity him. "I brought a bit of bread and cheese, dear, here In my apron," she said. "I almost forgot It, but don't stop to eat It now. 'Twas poor housing for you, Ood pity me!" ' He had left her stern and cold two days before, and the wistful love she now betrayed was more to Weymouth than any danger, past, present or to come. It must be that she had for gotten her unkind decision, but at the first word of an eager question she left his side and hurried up the long slope. The heavy leather pouch chafed and lamed Its carrier's side, but, worse than that, unhappy forebodings took the spirit out of his heart. The whole ad venture seemed unreal, danger and as sistance were both alike strange events, a play which developed Itself before his eyes. Weymouth was light-headed for. the moment, and neither his own safety nor the gold's appeared to be Important, while the whole happiness of his life was at stake. , A mite or two away the old Inn Btood up against the dark sky like a dismal prison. There were lights about it now,' as If there were some stir and ex citement. The escaped man drew a long breath and hastened forward to over take his companion. . '".' "What shall I do?" he asked. "I have no horse, and I must reach Bristol by dawn. I have spent my life with horses, but this one was like a brother. ' Well, I must leave him to their mercy. We should have been in Bristol now, (or the sailing of a ship." "You were led astray," said she, ; ' ,-' ' .. speaklngoverhershoulder as he walked close behind. "By whom, then?" "By Rogers; they have trusted too long at the bank; he has been waiting his chance, and has been in league with with these people," she faltered. "Let us make haste." "I thought you meant to hall the ves sel," said Weymouth. "They could have set round intd Brletol." "Do you not see that the wind has fallen?" answered his companion. he Left llcr Hand in His. "Folks have been dropped overboard from that craft before now. The Severn Is deep and wide enough to hide many a man with a stone fast to his neck." A bain they walked on for Borne time without speaking, but at the foot of a long ridge of land with a hedge at the top, she stopped once more and whis pered in his ear. 'We must do something Bold now," she said; "that Is the road above us." Weymouth Btood like a soldier wait ing for his orders. 'There Is an Inn close by U9 at the path's end. 'TIs no palace, yet not a den of thieves like that," and she pointed back to the shore. "To let you escape may bring down the law on their heads. If they have not seen Borne one here already, they will do It soon. They Will not let you get away so easily," she said, faltering again. "No one has es caped them yet who could tell tales," and she sobbed In Bplte or nerseir anu h-l him take her Into his arms. .Her strength had broken at last. "Promise me something," she said, and he prom ised In love and pity. "It 1b my shame and doom, she said, when she could speak." I oannot marry an honest man. They are my own people,- my nearest kin, these murderers and thieves. But they are. going to Amerlca,thelr passage Is already taken. Next week all will be at an. end. Let them go free; they took me an orphan and bred me up kindly. 'TIs as good as any banishment, l nave promisea 10 go with them; It Is my only hope and prayer to help them save their souls by honest living. In a new country." She was wild and piteous now with her kisses and entreaties. "Oh, my man, I cannot be your snamer sne cried like one whose nerves were ailing and whose distress was more than could Je borne, "You do not know you do not know; 'twas worse with them while I had gone away!" "Then I must follow you," said the troubled man, trying to comfort her. "You are more than ever the wife for me." Her face shone In the dark with whiteness; she stood before him and pushing him back with a firm hand her manner wholly changed. "Listen to me" she stopped a mo ment while they both heard a horse's tread coming along the highway. "Whatever, horse that may be, If the rider stops at the inn you must be ready to take It and ride on." She rapidly told him to find his way where the road divided Just beyond, and they hurried together up the Inst steep rise of ground. The horse was coming at a galop. "Good heavens! . I believe Its my own, "said Weymouth, ready to rush out in the middle of he road. The low building of the Inn was opposite and there were lights In the window. They stood under the eaves of a bushy hedge as the rider came up and .stopping his horse, gave a. call. The quick-witted woman pushed Weymouth under the Ivy tod and ran out and caught the bridle. "He came by the fields! Look In the Inn kitchen!" she said aloud, triumph antly. , "I'll mind your horse. Quick now!" Bhe Insisted, and the rider leaped to ground, pleased at an ally, and had hardly opened .the Inn door when Wey mouth, safe In his own saddle, rode away free as a bird down the Bristol road. j Tov be concluded. 1 HIS 5 1 fl&l Constipation.
