The captain looked at him once or twice suspiciously. "You don't want your men stuck in the luud," said tlreg, and he pointed convincingly to a quagmire they were passing. After half an hour's wandering to ind fro in the meadows he led the party up to the bridge over the moat, itul they entered the grounds of the manor house from tlie rear. As they tiled round to the front, n group of men who were sitting under n tree on the lawn started on seeing the familiar uniform. A minute Inter Captain Founder liad embraced his brother ami explained the situation. The prisoners of war were in an ecstasy of delight at the prospect of, as one of them facetiously put it, being "brutally Jragged from their parole," but on the -aptnin proposing an immediate return :?> the boats, Cnmllle waved his hand rayly in denreeation. rournier in particular. And now here he was, to Jacob's amozment, assisting not only the nation, but the Individual, to defy his own country and to laud an armed force on her shores. Questioned by Captain Fournler as to his reasons for not following their example, he replied with a grin that he was not so fond of his country as to want to die for her when there was a plain way out. The Firefly was captured on a Saturday, and It was not till dawn was breaking on Sunday that Grog was called on to act as pilot, brigantlne was rounding Selsea B11L As the vessel was now In the fair way for Portsmouth and British cruisers swarmed like wasps about the entrance of their nest, the French seamen lay concealed below, except half u dozen dressed in garments taken from the English sailors' stock. Captain Fournler, pistol In hand, stood close to Greg, alert for the first sign of treachery. Before running for Hayling Island to make the entrance of the creek he found it necessarv to exeonto ?r>v<?r?l maneuvers which took a Rood deal of time, explaining the necessity of them by the numerous shallows he had to avoid. When at length he put the helm up and stood boldly into the creek on the half flood the wind swerved from behind, but presently a sharp bend in the narrow passage made the sails useless and the boats were ordered out to tow. The brigantlne emerged from the narrow gut of the winding creek Into the broader waters at tlie village just as the bells of Bosham church ceased ringing for morning service. The French captain was burning with suppressed excitement. "Where is the manor house where my brother lives?" he asked, as (Jreg gave (he wheel a turn and brought the Firefly round. "There, yonder?back of the church," was the reply. "I've fetched you up right opposite to it?as near as I dare go. You'd best anchor here." The French captain gave the necessary orders, and at once set about making bis dispositions for landing his entire force, except a sufllcleut guard for the prisoners. Though the landing entailed several iourneys in the Firefly's boats, it was rapidly effected, and with Founder at its head the party started for the manor house under dreg's guidance. Only a hundred yards of marshy pasture land lay between the creek and under a proper complement of offlcsf*. Captain Fouraler sent them aboard the Firefly, and followed with Greg, for he meant to lead the enterprise In person, leaving the Alcegte in charge of him first lieutenant. As soon aa the transfer was complete and a rendezvous appointed with the frigate the French flag was hauled down on the Firefly and she stood across for the English coast Greg Applegarth was permitted to remain on deck, but Jacob Dempster and the rest of his crew were thrust into the hold, where they passed their time in cursing their comrade's treachery. That the traitor should be Greg Applegarth was the most astonishing fact of all?especially to old Jacob, who was aware of certain tender passages between the smart young sailor and his own wayward daughter Peggy. The prisoners of war were permitted by the Government to rent the manor house and live there as they pleased, provided they kept to the stipulations of their parole, which demanded that they should make no attempt to escape or go farther than two miles from their dwelling. Camille Fournler, the brother of the captain of the Alceste, had early contrived to scrape an acquaintance with Peggy Dempster, and the vivacious village beauty had been flattered into allowing a warmer flirtation than she had perhaps Intended. > c(|Hjr nas ifuuiug wvrr UlT UtVIltTB garden gate one evening, saying goodnight to the French officer, who was too much engrossed to notice that Greg Applegarth was coming up the road. "Would that my captivity eould endure forever," Camille said. "How shall I ever tear myself from your sweet presence, Mistress Peggy, when I return to France?" "There is a way out of that difficulty; you might ask me to come, too," replied the thoughtless girl. "I will bear that In mind," said Camille, not suspecting, in his vanity, that the words were meant for other ears than his. Greg Applegarth had referred to this incident only the day before the capture of the Firefly, and had expressed a bitter hatred of all Frenchmen in general and of Lieutenant Camille 1 opposition hero. Tb are not twentj able-bodied Britona In the place. Moat of them are In church, and they are all j unarmed." | "At* ah! you hare been amuelnj / yourself," eald the captain. "Well, hasten and say your adieus to the fall one, for I am anxious to be gone." "It Is not a matter of farewell, nothing so dismal," replied the youngei i brother, complacently twirling his mustache. "The fair one la ready to accom- I pany me whenever I take my departure, but unfortunately she Is in church, aud likely to remain there for anothei hour. I have heard that the priest ol Bosham Is a cleric of long wind." ?? mi? me muy a note, aBKing ner on some excuse to leave the church," h< ' said. "I have with me an English sailor who shall deliver it." Cnmllle scribbled a few lines on a leaf in his pocket book, folded It and handed it to h\s brother, who ealled Greg to him. "You know this lady by sight?" lit asked, pointing to the superscription. The young sailor's face was as stead? as a rock as he answered in the affirmative. "Take It to her in the church, then, and return yourself immediately. II you do not return I will march my men to the church and Arc upon the people," said Founder. Greg disappeared In the shrubbery which adjoined the churchyard. Pushing open the door, lie removed his cap and tiptoed reverently up the aisle toward the chancel, where Peggy Dempster was seated with the choir. But without approaching the choir Greg ran Quickly up the pulpit steps. Mr. Gillyflower turned upon him angrily, but on hearing the words which were rapidly whispered in his ear the vicar looked first startled, then shrewdly Intelligent. His communication finished, Greg left the church as quickly as he had entered, with Camllle Fournier's note still in bis pocket, and without once looking at Peggy. On the manor house lawn, t?here the French seamen made a picturesque group under the trees, Greg's return was hailed with acclamation by the officers?by the two Founders especially. "What did she do when you gave her the note7" asked Camllle eagerly. "She just did nothing," was the unconcerned reply. "You see, my dear Camllle, she has changd her mind," said the captain. "Come, let us be off out of this." "What matter so long as I gain my purpose?" retorted the lieutenant brutally. "No, take the others and sail away If you please. As for me, nothing will move me unless I can take the fair Mile. Dempster." Captain Founder bit his Up, but gave In. At most It only meant waiting until, the close of the service, which could long deferred, and In the seclusion of the manor house grounds the presence of the landing party would,. In the meanwhile, remain undetected. But when the minutes grew Into an hour and a half, yet no signal was given by the man posted In the shrubbery to watch the church door, the captain be* gan to fume and stamp with rage. Ho finally threatened to turn the pre< tense of a forced abduction Into a real-* ity and carry Camllle on board the Fire-" fly whether or no. "If you do that," said the lieutenant, "my first act on reaching France will be to demand of you satisfaction." At last the elder Founder's patience was exhausted. "Fall in, men," he said to his crew. "We will put the cloture on this loquacious priest, and take the girl from under his nose. Perhaps that will satisfy j*ou, ingrate?" turning to Camllle. "Excellently well," replied the lieutenant, and with the jaunty quickstep of France the column tramped Into the shady churchyard, where the sonorous tones of Mr. Gillyflower were plainly audible. i "Peste upon the fellow," muttered the captain, telling off twenty men to accompany him and his brother into the church. Greg, who had followed closely nt bin elbow, plucking him by the sleeve, aald, quietly: "It will be a long time before you see Frauce again, captain. See there!'" And, leading him to the churchyard wall, lie pointed moekiugly at the Firefly. The brigantine lay high and dry on the mud at her anchorage, and would not float again for ten hours at least. For a moment the brave lad's life trembled in the balance. Then, with a bitter oath, the captain put up his pistol he had drawn. "If you do the folk 110 harm you'll be made comfortable, I expect," said Greg, with a grin, for he hud foreseen that, with retreat cut off. Founder would dare no excesses. "You see. I remember how the tide would serve to-day and I timed so as to run you in nt church time. 1 knew Peggy would be there with the eholr, and that that spark would never move without trying to take her a Ion*, ? allowed that by when the people came out the vessel would be hard and fast, but it was you who gave me the chance to tip the par-! son and hint to let 'em have an extraj dose and send word to the vlunteerrt from Chichester.

His chief reward lay In the removal of all the French prisonel's new as well r.s old?to safer quarters, as he had hoped from the tlrst. And Peggy said: "It would have been nicer of you to have given me that note, silly. You were never that foolish as to think I would have gone with him." ! ?Tid-liits.

A typical case was readily found in the | Bzperienoe of Mm Mary A. Oouway. avian 1 on Erie street, Do rooster. Mass., who had been, according to her own testimony, suffering for a long time with physical ana nervous weakness, accompanied by palplti tlon of thn heart and irregularity of functions. "It Is true," she said, "that P have met with a remarkable restoration through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. For some time I was completely run down, and the care of a family was a great strain upon me. My lips were white and my heart palpitated so severely that I oould not go up ana down stairs without great distress. My digestion, too. was weak, and I can truly say that I was suffering from a general iaok of vitality. "I took Pink Pills with misgivings, but after taking only a small quantity I was agreeably surprised to find that they were all and more than they had been deeoribed to be. "From the very first time of taking the pills I began to notice their benefloial effect, and I found myself gradually and rapidly overcoming the varied physical weakneseee that seemed to have fastened upon me; my white Hps were restored to their normal tinge, I regained oolor in myfooe, and an for the heart trouble I may say that it has completely vanished, and I oan now go up and Sown stairs without any palpitation whatever. Heretofore I *?ad black specks before my eyes and a tendency to disaineee, but bow my head is clear and my vision is unimpaired.

There is comfort in the knowledge that bo many forms of sickness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a constipated condition of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrupof Figs, promptly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes iuternal cleanliness, without debilitating th? organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its beneficial effects, to note when you purchase, that you have the genuine article, which is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all reputable druggists. i * If in the enjoyment-of good--health, and the system.'is regular, tlijjn. laxatives or other remedies are nothdeded.
