Mi111ons for Defence
Against the inroads of that subtle , lurking fob
to humca health , malaria , had been expended
, - uselessly when Hostettor's Stomach Bitters
appeared upon the scene and demonstrated its
. power as a preventive and curative of the
' , dreaded scourge. When the "gold fever"
raged in 1649 in .
California , malaria was con.
temporancous with it at the "diggings , " and
wrought dreadful havoc among the miners.
Then and subsequently on the Isthmus of Pana
' ma , and wherever in the tropics malarial disease -
ease is most virulent , the Bitters became the
S recognized safeguard. For the effects of exposure -
posuro and fatigue , miasma-poisoned air and
water , sea sickness and all disorders o1 the
Stomach , liver and bowels , the Bitters affords
prompt relief. Invalids of all sorts will find it
fully adequate to their needs.
A hardware concern in Bangor received -

new clerk to go into the basement
and count them. The boy was gone a
good while , in fact , so long that they
became worried , and going down
found that he had opened two kegs
and was counting the nails one by
one.

THE MERHANT'8 CRIME.
CHAP'T'ER 1RII-CONTINUED.
"How am I to know that ? "
"Because ' . "
I'say so.
' -You only say you think he is
dead. You bring me no proof.
When I ask you how you can know it
positively , you offer me no explana-
tion.
tion."I
"I saw his ghost 'I'hursday night , "
said James Cromwell , shuddering.
"His ghost ! Iifhat ridiculous nonsense -
sense is this ? " demanded the mer-
chant.
" 1 saw his ghost as plain as I see
you , " said Cromwell , in a shbdued
vufce.
"And where was it that this precious -
cious apparition came to you ? " asked
illy. Morton , with contempt.
"dt was in a hotel at Wheeling , "
said James Cromwell. "I was lying
awake when the door of my chamber
suddenly opined , and his person en-
tered. "
"Did he speak ? " asked Paul Morton -
ton , impressed , in spite of himself ,
by the tone of conviction with which
the other spoke.
"Yes. " said Cromwell.
„ What did ho say ? "
"I-cannot tell , " he said with a
shudder.
"Pooh , man ! you hada night-mare ,
nothing more and nothing less , " said
the merchant.'You must be crazy
if you expect me. to believe that the
boy is dead on any such absurd testi-
inony us this. I dare say you had
eaten a heavy dinner , or perhaps
drank too much , and so the supposed
ghost was only the offspring of your
distempered fancy , and that proceeded -
ceeded from a disordered stomach. "
James Cromwell shook his head.
"You are wrong , " he said , "I was
as wide awake as I am now. "
I
" \\'ell , that is your affair-if you
choose to believe in the reality of
this visitation , well and good. That
is nothing to me. But if you want
me to credit the story of the boy's
death , you must bring a certified
statement from the coroner in your
town-Madison is the name , I believe
-then there will be no room for
doubt. "
'To do that I shall be obliged to
return to the West , " said Cromwell ,
disconcerted.
"Then you have only yourself to
blame for the extra trouble you are
obliged to take. You ought not to
have come away at all until you
could bring with you satisfactory
evidence of the boy's death. "
James Cromwell looked down in
dismay. This did not suit his views
at all. Besides , he saw that it
would be awkward to go back , and
institute such proceedings so late.
But Paul Morton evidently meant to
keep him to it.
"Perhaps it would have been better -
ter , " he said at last.
"Of course it would. You can see j
for yourself that until I have satisfactory -
factory proof of my ward's decease
I cannot take possession of the property -
perty , nor of course can I give you
any portion of it while I am not sure
whether it is mine to give. Ishould
think that was plain enough. "
It was plain enough. James
Cromwell saw that now , and he was
provoked at l } s mistake.
"Then , " he said disanpointed , 'I
suppose I must go back. "
"No , that will not be necessary.
You can telegraph to some person to
institute a search of the pond , if
you have reason to think the body
will be found there , and request information - I
formation to be sent at once of any
discovery that may be made. "
"I will do so , " said Cromwell ,
relieved.
While they were speaking the
doorbell had rung , though neither
had heard it , and Major Woodley ,
instruc' ing the servant to usher him
in without previous announcement , '
entered the presence of the guilty
employer and his equally guilty confederate -
federate : close behind him followed I
Robert Raymond. At the sight of
him Cromwell staggered to his feet ,
and gazed upon him with distended
eyes , and Paul Morton sat as if i
rooted to his chair.
CI-IAPTER 1SIIL .
Conclusion.
The merchant was the first to recover -
cover his self-possession. I
"I have not the pleasure of knowing -
ing you , sir , " he said to Major Wood-
ley ,
"My name is Woodley. " said the
latter. "I was a friend of this boy's
father , " and he laid his hand on the i
shoulder of Robert.
"May I ask how you fell in withm
hun ? I confess I am puzzled at his
i
unexpected appearance , having just
received intelligence from this person -
son ( indicating Cromwell ) that he
had disaupeared. "
" % Iav I ask , as his father's friend.
why you should have committed
Robert to the care of a man , who is ,
to say the least , wholly unfitted by
education or experience , to have the
charge of him ? " I
"I do not choose to be called to I
account. " said Mr. Morton haughti- i
ly. 'His father made me his guard- t
Ian. and confided in my judgment. " :
"Then , sir , you should have
shown yourself worthy of the confii i
deuce he reposed in you ; " said Major
IVoodley.
"Sir , you assume an extraordinary
tone , " said Paul Morton angrily.
"Are you aware of the manner in
which this boy has boon treated by
the person to whom you committed
him ? "
"Yes , I presume so. You perhaps
have credited the boy's stqry , which
probably is wholly unreliable. Of
course I do not know what he has
told you. "
"Then , sir , I have to inform you
that it is only by a miracle that the
boy stands here to-day in health.
This wretch made two distinct attempts -
tempts to murder him ! " and he
I
pointed his finger at James Cromwell.
"Impossible ! " exclaimed. Paul Morton -
ton , nervously.
"It is not only possible , but true.
On the first occasion he attempted to
hurl him over Niagara Falls , but the
boy's quick grasp saved him from
the fearful fate. "
"I cannot believe this , " muttered
Mr. Morton.
i . .0n the second occasion he seized
' him unawares while both were on a
boat on a pond , and threw him into
the water to drown. Fortunately ,
he was rescued by one who witnessed
the attempt. "
"These are fables , " said Paul
Morton.'The boy has grossly
deceived
1 "Wc can send for evidence if
necessary , " said Major IVoodley
coolly , "but that will hardly be
i necessary. If you look at that man's
face , you will read upon it that the
story is no invention , and is the
I literal truth. "
He pointed to Cromwell , who was
! livid with terror , and stricken with
the confusion of conscious guilt. He
staggered to his feet and in his
wild terror attempted to rush out of
i the apartment.
In , this he was unsuccessful.
Woodley coolly stepped in front of
him and said , "Not so fast , Mr. Crom-
well. I1'e cannot dispense with you
yet. "
Cromwell glanced at the stalwart
figure of time major , and he saw that
resistance would be useless. Hoping
to make better terms for himself , he
said , "Promise not to harm me and
I will tell you all. "
! "Are you mad ? " said Paul Morton
sharply , filled with terror lest his
confederate should betray him. "Do 1
you never plead guilty to this atrocious -
cious charge ! "
"Rrhy should he not , if he is
guilty ? " demanded Major Woodley.
"It appeal's that you desire to shield
him. "
Paul Morton saw his imprudence ,
and determined to adopt a different
course.
"If he is guilty I do not wish to
shield him. But I thought you
meant to terrify him into confessing
what was not true. "
" 'There is no need of that. We
can prove the charge on the testimony -
mony of the boy , and the man who
witnessed the attempt to drown him.
I will not engage to screen him from
punishment , but if he confesses it ,
he will stand a better chance of
mercy. "
"Then , " said Cromwell , clutching
at this promise. "I will tell you all.
1 did try to drown the boy. "
"And what could have been your
motive for such a dastardly deed ? "
' lrI. Morton promised me $10,000
when the boy was dead. "
"It's a lie ! " ejaculated Paul Morton -
ton hoarsely. "He has told an
atrocious falsehood ! "
"But , though he spoke thus , his
face became livid , and the truth was
patent in his look.
"Can this be true ? " demanded Ma-
joy I oodles , shocked and startled.
' IVliat motive could Mr. Morton
have for conniving at such a crime ?
How would the boy's death benefit ,
him ? " {
"Read his father's will , and you
will know , " said Cromwell. "At the
boy's death the whole property goes
to Mm' . Morton. "
"Is this true , Mr. Morton ? " said j
Major Woodley sternly.
"So much is true , but the other is
a base lie , " said the merchant.
"I could wish it were so. What
evidence can you give of the truth
of your statement ? Have you the
offer in writing ? "
"No , he was too careful to write
it , but he hinted at it in terms
which only I could understand. "
"He is a miserable liar , " said the
merchant.
'I can hardly believe him capable
of such an atrocity. '
"You cannot ? " said Cromwell ,
; lancing at Paul Morton spitefully. !
"Then I will tell you what he is Capable -
pable of. I accuse him here of poi-
somming the boy's father. "
' Good heavens ! are you mad ? " exclaimed - j
claimed Major Woodley , starting.
"I am perfectly aware of what I
am saying , and I can prove it. He
bought the poison of me , at a time
whenI was employed in a drug store
on the Bowery. It was a slow poison -
son which accomplished its work ,
without leavinr any 'perceptible
traces. "
Robert listened to the revelations
with pale face , horror-stricken , and
for a moment } no word was spoken.
"Ml : Morton , " said Major IVood-
Icy , "this is an extraordinary charge , ;
which , whether you are inno3ent or "
guilty , must be investigated. I
brought a policeman here with the
view of arresting this man Cromwell -
well , but I feel it is my duty to
direct your arrest also. " As he
spoke he opened the door corn-I
municating with the hall , and a
policeman entered.
"Arrest these two men , " he said.
Paul Morton's face wore a look of
one brought to bay , and he exclaimed -
claimed , "Never will I submit to the !
indignity. Here is one means of I
escape. "
He pulled a drawer beside him
open , and drew forth a revolver.
"I must die , " he said , "but I will
not die alone. "
R
. P
As he bpoke ho pointed the revolver -
volver at Cromwell , and there was a
sharp report.
The unhappy druggist bounded
from his chair with a shrill cry ,
then sank lifeless on the carpet , the
life-blood welling from his hear- , .
.Chere was a cry of horror from all
wlio witnessed the tragic scene.
Major IVoodley sprang forward to
seize the revolver , but too late.
Paul Moron turned it and pressing
it to his forehead , drew the trigger.
There was another report , and he
fell forward , his brains being scat-
toyed over the floor.
"T'his is most terrible ! " exclaimed
' Major IVoodley in a tone of horror ,
"May it never be my lot to be witness -
ness to such a scene again ! "
Robert , over-excited by the revelation -
tion of his father's fate , and the
horrible scene which had been enacted -
acted before him , fainted.
Major Woodley raised him gently ,
and carried him from the room.
"I leave you in charge , sir , " he
said to the policeman. "It is fortunate -
tunate that you were a witness to
what has occurred. "
I The tragical end of Paul Morton
was spine day's wonder in the city ,
and then some other startling event
surpassed it in the popular thought.
It was found on examination of the
late merchant's affairs that his
ward's fortune was intact. This
would not have been the case , but that
his own affairs had taken a fortunate
turn , and he had redeemed his losses
by a fortunate rise in some securities -
ties which had been for a while depressed -
pressed , and had at last advanced
rapidly in price.
Robert Raymond selected Major
' \roodloy as his guardian , and was
fortunate in doing so , for the major
was a man of the utmost . probityand
of excellent judgment.s in business
affairs. He was at once returned to
his former school , where he continued -
ued his studies. In due time he entered -
tered college , where lie acquitted
himself with credit. On his graduation -
tion he went to Europe , where he
traveled two years. Returning last
year , ho found that he had wholly
mistaken the feeling which he supposed -
posed lie entertained toward the fair
Edith. He was no longer willing to
look upon her as a sisterbut aspired
to a nearer relation. Major Woodloy
was not slow in giving his sanction
to a suit which received his entire
approbation , and the wedding took
place.
In a beautiful country seat on the
Hudson Robert Raymond lives with
his fair young wife. They are happy -
py in each other and in the gifts of
fortune. Long may they remain so !
The reader may be interested to
learn that Clara Manton has not yet
found a husband , nor does she desire
it. Her father's death put her in
possession of his property , and she
prefers to maintain a selfish independence -
pendence to risking' her money in a
husband's charge. Cato was handsomely -
somely rewarded for the signal service -
vice he had rendered our young hero ,
and was made comfortable for life.
THE END.
TOLD ON MR. BLACK.
I10w lIe Quoted Shakespeare Uselessly in
a Law Suit.
"A good story is told of ex-Pen-
sion Commissioner Black , " said A.1 :
Grundon , a Chicago attorney , to the
St. Louis Globe-Democrat. "Every
one who knows Black is aware that
lie is one of the most dignified legal
practitioners in the Westand that he
is also somewhat enamored of the
classics. Not long ago he was attorney -
ney in a usury case at Springfield ,
and in his address to the jury he
quoted very freely from "The Merchant -
chant of Venice. " and wound up by
saying that although the plaintiff
could demand his pound of flesh , the
teems of his bond did not enable him
to go beyond this. The attorney for
the alleged usurer seemed very much
amused at the line if argument Mr.
Black was taking , and when that
gentleman's peroration was concluded
he rose and remarked , with somewhat -
what of a pitying tone that Brother
Black had recently held a brief in a
dressed-beef case and that he had
gotten the two cases mixed up , concluding -
cluding by assuring the jury that
there was no flesh in this case at all ,
but only money. A legal friend of
mine , who solemnly asserts he was
in court on the occasion , says the
look of disgust on Mr. Black's face
would have been worth a small fortune -
tune to any artist who could have
reproduced it on canvas. "
Fat Fish.
When the water was withdrawn
from the lake near Geyser spring ,
in Saratoga , an immense quantity of
trout and pickerel was captured ,
many of them being of great size.
It is thought that the mineral water
impregnated with has was the cause
of the uncommon abundance and fatness -
ness of the fish-that the stimulus
of the mineral constituents and gas
sharpens the appetite , invigorates
the nerves of the stomach and pro.
motes the digestion of the fish.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A Clock of Birds.
The ingenuity of the scientist who
established a "clock of flowers , " by
planting in regular specimens whose
corrollas opened at specified hours , has
been matched by a German who has
composed a "clock of birds. " This is
especially a night clock. The birds and
hours of their songs are as follows :
The chaffinch from half past one in the
morning until two ; the titmouse from
two to half past two ; the quail from
half past two to three ; the redstart
from three to half past three ; the ousel
from half past three to four ; the warbler -
bler from four to half past four ; the
marsh tit from half past four to five ;
the sparrow at five. It is a curious incident -
cident , that the most celebrated of the
birds , whose song has always served to
mark the hour , is missing in the list.

TAKE STEPS
in time , if you arc a sufferer -
ferer from that scourge
of humanity known as c
consumption , and you
eau be cured. There is
the evidence of
hundreds of living -
ing witnesses to
time fact that , in /
all its early
stases , consunip-
tion is a curable f ,
disease. Not
every case , but a
late perceufage of / ' i
cases , and we believe / /
filly 9S pcr cent. are
cured by Dr. Pierce's %
Golden Medical Discovery -
covery , even after time disease has progressed -
gressed so far as to induce repeated bleedings - i
ings front the lungs , severe lingering cough
with copious expectoration ( including tubercular -
bercular matter ) , great loss of flesh and ex-
tremc emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by"Golden Medical -
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it. They have , in nearly every
instance , been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians ,
who have no interest whatever in misrepresenting -
representing then. , and who were often
strongly prejudiced and auvised against
a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery , "
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses , iii curative power over this
fatal malady , all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod-
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures , had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to benefit -
fit , or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt. whiskey ,
and various preparations of time hypo-
phosphites had also been faithfully tried
in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consummptiou. bronchitis ,
lingering coughs , asthenia. chronic nasal ,
catarrh and kindred maladies. have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of i6o
pages which will be maiic to you , on
receipt of address and six cents in
stamps. You can then write to those who
have been cured and profit by their ex-
perience.
