    THE GUARD’S STORY.
From the Slot* Journal, Lincoln, Neb.
There is probably not a stronger naan or
more trustworthy guard employed at the
Nebraska 8|ate Penitentiary than J. T.
Ralston. Tojjh stranger he appears a Tory
good example of the man who boasts that
he was never sick a day in his life.
. For many years Mr. Ralston lived at
Syracuse. Nebraska, and the old residents
there remember him as one of the strongest
and healthiest of their number.
In ’80, or thereabouts, when the “grip”
first broke forth in this section of the coun
try. it claimed him, as one of its earliest
victims. Like most men with a strong
physique, he sneered at the disease and did
not guard properly against it. For days he
lay in btd and left it only as a confirmed
invalid.
Auuutuiib iiureoe movea wun ms xaniuy
to Peru, Nebraska, where some of his chil
dren were attending the State Normal
School. He hoped the change would do him
good, but he was disappointed. He doctored
with the local physicians, and even with his
own son, who was practicing medicine. All
seemed to no avail, and miserable in mind
and body the poor man told his family that
be feared'tbere was no hope for him.
A happy thought of his own led him to
try strong stimulants. He was again able
to work. But he soon found that his relief
was but temporary, and when bad weather
eame on he was subject to severe attacks
of the “grip” as before.
Two years ago Mr. Halstnn was employed
at the.Nebraska State Penitentiary at Lin
coln, the state capital, and enjoyed compar
ative ease while performing the duties of
nsher. Lyt fall, however, he was put out
on the wail, and with the change of work
came his old trouble in even more aggravat
ed form. He was not only troubled with the
usual miserable feelings of the “grip,” but
he found himself short of breath and gen
erally weak, these things unfitting him for
the duties of bis position.
Once more, almost in despair, be sought
a cure and purchased a box of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People. He used them
according to directions and telt better. Five
more boxes followed the first, and thelong
aufferer was a well man.
Said he to a Journal reporter, to whom he
bad just given the above facts: “I feel now
as though I could stack more hay than any
man in Nebraska; and If I needed a posi
tion now 1 would hunt one on a harvest
field. Why, only last Sunday night 1 took
a severe cold which, a year ago, would have
laid me up a week with the ’grip’; but
now it causes me only temporary annoy
ance, and I simply live it oil.”
. Mr. Ralston has been long and favorably
known in many parts of Nebraska, both as a
private citizen and as a leader in tbe orig
inal Farmers’Alliance movement,and hosts
of friends rejoice with him in his remark
able recovery, for which he unhesitatingly
gives the credit to Dr. Williams’ Pink Puls.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills contain, in a
condensed form, all the elements necessary
to give now life and richness to the blood
ana restore shattered nerves. Pink Pills are
■old by all dealers, or will be sent post paid
on receipt of price, SO cents a box, or six
boxes for fS.SO, by addressing Dr. Williams1

works convince it.—Bacon.
Drudgery Is as necessary to call out
the treasures of the mind as harrowing

The talent of success is nothing
more than doing what you can do well,

out of it.—Ruskin.
A child of ordinary capacity and des

FASHION’S FANCIES.
Every description of thin, gauzy, ma
terial is popular for gowns and waists.
Red, yellow, blue, mauve, and green
organdies, trimmed with cream or
black lace, make very stylish-looking
gowns.
Black lace end insertion on white cos
tumes is one of the newest fancies of
the hour.
White tucking, combined with white
or colored beading and satin baby rib
bon, is very pretty for yokes, guimpes,
„v: and plastrons on children’s frocks.
Parasols for everyday wear are most
ly of shaded silks; lavender and gold
gives a charming, :himmoring effect,
and red ones are always pretty, espe
cially for a pale-faced girl.
WORTH KNOWINC.
Women have colds in the head less
frequently than men, because they are
not accustomed to heavy head cover

When an artery has been severed the
blood comes in Jets, because the heart

I BY PERMISSION OF
RAND.MSNALLY A CO..
(CHAPTER VI.—Continued).
At the Tower wharf he landed, paid
his passage and something over, and
walked away from the river, taking
several turns without hesitation or In
quiry, and finally making due east for
some distance. Another turn to the
light brought him. as he had calcu
lated, straight down upon the river
again at Wapplng. In the not very
probable case of any one having at
tempted to follow him from the neigh
borhood of his own house, his rapid
voyage down the river and his devious
course through these thickly populated
streets must have completely baffled the
pursuit. '
He stepped down to the water-side and
looked at the half-dozen boat3 lying
there. In a moment he was surrounded
by their owners, each vociferously
claiming the passenger for his own
craft, warranted to be at once the
safest and speediest on the river.
He smiled, and chose the one who
made the most noise. This was a
bright, open-looking young fellow who
gave every promise of being as com
municative as could be wished. Before
they had gone half a mile he had justi
fied the colonel's choice of him by re
plying at great length to four or five
tentative remarks; but though his com
panion was keeping a sharp- lookout,
nothing seemed to give him the oppor
tunity or information he desired.
As the corner at the lower end of the
pool came in sight the colonel made
another attempt.
“You must have some interesting
characters,” he said, “down here among
the shipping and the sailors.”
“You may say that, sir,” was the re
ply; “there’s all sorts in Llme'us, from
a spanking lass like Susie Gaylord
down to old Nan with her black teeth
and her fathom o' foul tongue behind
’em.”
The colonel smiled. This might be
amusing, but it' was not business, and
he put it by.
“Ah, women,” he said; “no doubt
they are always interesting, but I was
thinking of men, and stories of adven
ture at sea.”
"Ay, ay, sir,” said the young man,
"there may be a tale or two about,
but there's not much in men, to my
mind; they're every one as like the
other as a row of bottles; but the girls,
now, young and old, glib and glum,
stupid and smart uns—why, they're all
different, and ye can't but like to hear
about ’em all.”
The colonel smiled again, but he was
inwardly dissatisfied; he felt that he
was far from caring to hear about all
the fair ones in Limehouse. The boat,
under the combined force of two strong
arms nnd ebbing tide, was swiftly near
ing its destination, and his opportunity
would soon have passed unused.
It was clear that some means must
be found of prolonging the conversa
tion, for it would be difficult to open
another with so willing and so expan
sive a talker.
"It’s a sharp morning,” he said, "and
it seems a long time since breakfast; is
there a house near where we could find
anything fit for a thirsty man to
drink?”
The boatman laughed knowingly, and
with an air of pride in the locality.
“There's the Outward Bound,” he
said, “where ye'll get better rum than
ever passed the customs up yonder;”
and he drew the boat into the landing
steps.
“That will do," said the colonel ;"we'll
take a glass, then, for good luck, for I
don't mind telling you that I’m in that
line just now myself.”
“Are ye, though?” asked his com
panion, looking at him with more sym
pathetic interest; “why, I took ye for
a Frenchy.”
The colonel _ swallowed his national
pride and grinned sweetly.
"I am a Frenchman,” he said, “but
I'm running a free cargo for all that;
I'm down here now to look for a smart
man who knows the trade.”
They had left the boat and were now
wanning in tne direction oi a tavern
facing the river. On the sign-board ap
peared a ship with all sails set, and at
the mast-head a large triangular patch
of brilliant ultramarine, Intended, no
doubt, to represent the blue-peter, the
signal of outward-bound vessels.
The interior of the house pfloved un
savory, so the famous rum was ordered
out of doors into a rude veranda, which
they had entirely to themselves at this
early hour of the morning.
"Yes,” said the colonel, smacking Ills
lips critically over the liquor, “I want
a man to help me with a heavy cargo,
and I'm told that I shall find down in
*h“se parts a certain Herman John
stone, who'll do it as well as another.”
"Black Johnny, eh?” said his com
panion; "well, ye may find him and ye
may not; but I’ll tell ye this—there's
no man like him If ye do.”
“Why should I not find him? Is he
In hiding?”
"The revenue coppers have had an
eye on him since that Esmeralda busi
ness, ye know, and they say the Ad
miralty beaks 'd like to ask him some
questions, too, about the Jamaica trade.
Mind ye, I say nothing beyond what
I'm told myself, but I've heard that the |
Jolly Roger and him have been fairly I
wc-ll acquainted time and again.” j
"Ah," said the colonel, "that's an old ;
tale; but what’s this about the Esmer
alda? rye not heard that.” And he
called for a fresh supply of rum for his
companion, who indeed required no
such persuasion to start him spinning
bis yarn.
“Well, sir,” he began, “it was this
way. The Esmeralda was off the south
coast at a convenient place none so far
from Portsmouth, and there she was
for a week dodging about, and couldn't
run In, seeing that the revenue men had
word of her, and were out and about
every night. So this Johnstone o’ yours
hits upon a plan, and Just like himself
it was too. He goes to the coast-guard
and gives information that the Esmer
alda's to be run on such a night, and
volunteers to take the officers to the
place himself. So they go, near a doien
of them, and watch round a corner till
all the cargo’s ashore, and then they
jump out of a sudden and collar the
men, they not being more than six or
seven, and taken by surprise as they
seemed. So the coppers made them fast
and began to load up the cargo on a
couple o’ carts. Only, while they were
full-handed, down ct^me half a , score
more on the other Bide, and the prison
ers they got loose somehow wonderful
quick, and there was a bit of a light,
but no firing, ye see, the officers not
expecting anything, no more than the
others had made believe to; and the
long and short of it was that the cargo
went up the north road post-haste, as
they say, and the coast-guard with It
In their own carts, to keep ’em quiet for
a bit.”
Bravo!” said the oolonel; "that’s the
man for me! And all I've got to do now
is to find him; do you know where he
lives?”
The young man hesitated.
"No,” he said; "leastways, not exact
ly; but Mrs. Briggs within there’ll tell
ye.”
This, however, Mrs. Briggs in her
turn was equally unwilling to do,
though the colonel stated frankly the
nature of his assumed errand. She
offered, however, to send for Johnstone
if the gentleman would be good enough
to wait and see him at the Outward
Bound.
To this the colonel agreed, and Mrs.
Briggs disappeared in search , of a
trusty messenger.
The waterman, who had by this time
finished his second glass and had been
liberally paid both in coin and thanks,
showed no disposition to hurry his de
parture; he was evidently hanging
about in hope of being a party to the In
terview between two such interesting
personages.
The colonel saw this, and recognised
that the open veranda in which they
had bec:i sitting was too public a place
for a discussion of the kind he antici
pated; for even if he could succeed in
dismissing his present companion It
was free to any passer-by to step in, or
indeed to overhear a conversation from
the street.
So he rose and looked idly about him
for a few moments, and ended by drift
ing round into the bar. Mrs. Briggs
was there, and understood what he
wanted before he spoke.
"You’ll like to be alone, sir,” she said;
"there’s an empty room upstairs, two
pair back; I'll send him up to you as
soon as he comes; 'twon’t be long now.”
The colonel stumbled up a narrow,
rickety staircase, filled with dusty twi
light and the smell of stale tobacco
smoke. At the top he found the room,
a low-roofed den, evidently used by the
more intimate customers of the house
for secret potations after lawful hours.
A heavy step outside, and turning
round he saw a man In sailor's dress
enter the room.
There was not a moment's doubt as
to his Identity. There he stood, stout,
swarthy, fierce, and resolute, as Est
court had described him. His face was
in all probability more weather-beaten
and furrowed with deeper lines than
when Dick saw him twenty years ago
at Copenhagen, but the force and
choleric expression was there, and his
hair was Jet-black still.
“You’ve sent for me,” he said.
“What Is It? Let's be short.”
Hls herculean strength, the violence
of hls speech and manner, the strange
and disreputable atmosphere of the
place, and the impossibility of escape
from It, might well have alarmed even
a brave man; but the colonel seemed
to be serenely unaware of being In any
way at a disadvantage, and took hls
own time and method of answering.
“My name,” he said, In slow, precise
tones, “is Vllleroy, and I live for the
present at No. 12 Canterbury Square,
Southwark. I am from time to time
engaged in importing goods without the
assistance of the custom-house officials.
I have just now an unusually difficult
venture on hand, and I have come to
London to engage a flVst-rate skipper."
Johnstone’s face relaxed a little. He
was pleased with the compliment Im
plied, to say nothing of the prospect of
active employment of the kind he loved.
“Where you do want her landed?"
he asked.
me landing, replied the colonel, “is
not the chief difficulty; it is in inking
the cargo on board that the dunge:
lies.” ■
“And where would that be done?”
asked the other.
"That,” said the colonel, "I shall not
tell you yet; but it’s a good long voyage
from here, and I shall want to engage
you for three months, certain.”
Johnstone reflected a moment, going
over in his mind the various ports from
which smugglers came to Europe.
"Well,” he said at last, "never mind.
Wliat's the work?”
“It is work of an unusual kind,” re
plied his companion, “needing skill,
strength, and courage; but I'm told
you don't shirk danger when it comes in
the way of business.”
"Dangeri” said the other, with rude
contempt. "Go on!”
The colonel continued. In the same
measured voice.
"The coast," he said, "is so well kept
by guard-boats that it will be neces
sary for us in loading the ship to make
use of a boat of entirely new design,
propelled under water, and rising and
sinking at the will of the occupant—
that is to sny. of yourself.”
Johnstone looked Incredulous.
"You shall see the plans and judge
for yourself,” said the colonel; "it is
in reality simple enough.”
“If It can be worked," said the other.
tvlth an oath, "then I'll do It. But whet ]
a queer start ot the coast-guard to keep
the sea and not patrol the shore at all."
"Oh, as to that, they do; but the
watch on shore can be squared.’’
Johnstone nodded. "What's your
cargo?” he asked, abruptly.
The colonel smiled, and took a gold
napoleon from his pocket.
“It's got that head upon It,” he said,
holding up the coin between his finger
and thumb.
“Something strongish, eh?” said his
companion.
“Very strong,” said the colonel, with
dry humor.
"And plenty of It?” asked the other.
"Enough.” replied the colonel, “to
liven up every friend I’ve got for some
time to come.”
Johnstone brought his fist down on
the table.
"I'm your man,” he said, “If you’re
my money!”
"I am prepared io give you 10,000
francs, that Is to say, £100. for the
three months.”
"Double it!”
"Certainly not,” said the colonel, with
quiet decision.
“By God! you shall though," growled
the other, with a hardly suppressed
threat in his gesture.
‘Four hundred Is my offer,” said the
colonel, Indifferently. “You may take
It or leave It, as you please.”
“No!” roared Johnstone; "I’ve got
you! I know your name, and where you
live, and what you’re up to, and you’ll
give me a thousand, or I’ll blow the
game for you!”
The colonel put his hands In his
pockets and leaned his head back
against the wall.
“I gave you a false name and ad
dress,” he said, “and I dld-not tell you
my real business. I do not trust a man
until I know him.”
“I don’t care!” shouted the other;
“I’ve got you for all that. Here you
are and here you stay until you sign for
n thousand!”
"Alas!” said the colonel, shaking his
head, “the bold are so apt to be short
sighted! Friend Johnstone,” he con
tinued, “I came here by way of the
custom house; I left a letter there, to
be opened if I did not return for It In
two hours. The time Is nearly up now.
What do you suppose they will find
when they open It?”
The man looked daggers at him, but
shifted uneasily and said nothing.
“They will find,” said the colonel,
“your address and that of this house,
with a request to look for us at once In
both those places.”
“Well,” growled Johnstone, “what
then?”
“You are In request Just now,” con
tinued the colonel, politely. "First-, I
want you; secondly, the revenue offi
cers wish to hear more of that.little
Joke about the Ksmeralda; and thirdly,
the Admiralty desire your opinion on
the dangers of the West Indian trade
routes.”
The man looked thunderstruck.
"Naturally,” the colonel went on, “I
wish to secure the preference myself; |
and. Indeed, if you refuse my terms I
don’t suppose you will get such easy
ones from either of the other two
parties.”
There was a short pause.
‘‘I'll go,” said Johnstone, with a kind
of sullen admiration In his look. “I’ll
go for four hundred.”
“It shall be five,” said the colonel.
“And now unlock the door.”
They went downstairs and out of the
house. At the river-side the colonel
made an appointment with his compan
ion to meet at Southampton on a cer
tain day, and stepped into a boat.
“Westminster steps,” he said to the
waterman as they pushed off.
“You’ll not forget to call at the cus
tom house, sir,” Johnstone called
anxiously after him.
"Oh, there’s no need for that," re
plied the colonel. “I left nothing
there.”
And the boat shot swiftly up-stream
on the incoming tide.

STEADY FARMING.
Mistake of the Farmers In Not Sticking
to Any One Thing.
Steady farming, with a good rotation
of crops persistently followed. Is the
surest way -to success for farmers.
Abrupt changes In order to meet high
prices for some farm product are dan
gerous practices, says the Germantown
Telegraph. It Is within the remem
brance of every farmer when hay was
so low that It hardly paid to raise It
for market, but since then farmers have
been making more profit off hay than
almost any other crop. To suit the
change a great many dropped hay from
their list of farm crops and tried to get
along without It. The steady farmers
continued to give grass a place In their
erop rotation, turning It under when
it would not pay to cut and sell It as
hay, and when prices went up again for
hay they were the only ones who had
good crops to sell. Besides enriching the
soil with the grass they found them
selves prepared to reap a good harvest
when prices came round again to their
normal condition. Just now sheep have
been at a discount and thousands have
been selling them off to raise something
else more profitable. But sheep, both
for wool and mutton, will be profitable
in the future. Several times In the past
me sneep inuusiry nas Deen at us low
est ebb, but It revived in time. Steam
and electricity are said to be driving
horses out of the market and that it
will no longer pay to raise fine colts.
There never was a time and probably
never will be when It did not pay to
raise good horses. Underbred stock is
too plentiful and will be at a greater
discount in the future than now, but
fine driving road horses or heavy
draught horses will never lose their
value permanently. It is within the re
membrance of the writer when many
farmers paid $5 and $6 per head for
ordinary sheep because a boom In that
line was sending everything upward.
There are too many farmers engaged in
this industry who wait for high prices
and then they rush into that particular
line of work. If sheep are high-priced
they pay exorbitant prices for stock
in order to raise others to sell. If corn
is the leading farm product that pays
well they turn their farms Into enor
mous corn-fields, unmindful of the fact
often that they do not understand its
culture nor the expenses Attached to it. j
Frequently they have to make an initial
outlay to adapt themselves to the
abrupt change, which alone will take
away all prollts.
The gnat is provided with a regular
Ket of lancets and a cupping glass, from
which the air may be withdrawn.

Timely Warning.
The great success of the chocolate preparations of
the house of Walter Baker & Co. (established
' j. in 1780) has led to the placing on the market
many misleading and unscrupulous imitations
of their namo, labels, and wrappers. Walter
Baker ft Co. are the oldest and largest manu*
facturers of pure and high-grade Cocoas and
Chocolates on this continent. No chemicals are
used in their manufactures.
Consumers should ask for, and be sure that
they get, the genuine Walter Baker fc Co.’s goods.

germ=life
The uoctors tell us, now-a-days, that disease germs
are everywhere; in the air, in the water, in our food,
clothes, money; that they get into our bodies, live
there, thrive and grow, if they find anything to thrive on.
Consumption is the destruction of lung-tissue by
germs where the lung is too weak to conquer them.
The remedy is strength—vital force.
Scotty Emulsion, with hypophosphites, means the
adjustment of lung strength to overcome germ-life.
It is fighting the germ with the odds in our favor, f
These tiny little drops of fat-food make their way
into the system and re-fresh and re-invigorate it.
Whether you succeed with it or not depends on how
ffood a start the germs had, and how carefully you can
ive. The shortest way to health is the patient one.
The gain is often slow. ^
