TilE GUARD'S STORY.
j From the State Journal , Lincoln , Nab.
i There is robnbly not a stronger man or
'more trustworthy guard employed at the
Nebraska 8 to Penitentiary an J. T.
Ralston. Tv stranger ! a very
1 good exam leof the man whoboasts tht
he was never sick a day in his life.
For many years Mr. Ralston lived at
Syracuse. Nebraska and the old reaidenta
i there remember him as 0n0 of th eatrongest
and healthiest of their number.
1n'89 , or thereabouts , when the "grip"
firm broke forth iu this section of the country -
try , it claimed him as one of its earliest
victims. Like most men with a strong
physique , ho sneered at the disease and did
not guard properly against it. Fordaysho
lay in bed and bit it only as a confirmed
invalid.
I ' - Aboutthlstimebo moved with his family
to Peru , Nebraska , where come of his
wre attending the State Normal
1 School. Ho hoped the change would do him
M good , but ho wasdisappointed.Iiedoctored
with the local physicians , and oven with his
own son , who was practicing medicine. All
y seemed to no avail , and miserabloin mind
t and body the poor man told hisfamily that
be feared theto was no hope for him.
A happy thought of his own led him to
try htroug stimulants. Ho was again able
to work. But lie soon found that his relief
was but temporary. and when bad weather
came on ho was subject to severe attacks
p of the "grip" as l etore.
Two } oary ago Mr. Ralston was employed
at the Nebraska State Penitentiary at Lincoln -
coln thostatecapitel , and enjoyed com ar-
ntivo ease while performing the duties of
usher. Le3t full , however , ho was put out
on the wall , and with the change of work
i came his old trouble in oven more aggravated -
ed form. He way not only troubled with the
usual miserable feclingn of the "grip , " but
. ) he found bimpelf short of breath and generally -
erally weak , thcso thiugs unfitting him for
the dutiesof hh.position.
Once more. almost in despair , he sought
: a cure and purchased a box of Dr.Williams'
Pink Pills for Palo People ; He used thorn
according to directions and belt bettor. Five
more boxes followed the first , and the long-
' sufferer was a well man.
Said ho 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 post-
tion now I would hunt one on a harvest
i field. Why , only last Sunday night I took
a severe cold whicb , a year ago , would have
laid ma up a week with the 'grip' ; but
e now ft causes me out temporary annoyance -
ance and I siur 1 live it oIL"
Mr. . Ralston has been long and favorably
known iii many parts of Nebraska , both as
private citizen od as a leader in he ons-

able recovery , for which he unhesitatingly
gives the credit to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

INTERIi/ITiONAL PRESSASSOCIATION.
DY PtRMISSION Of
RAND-M WALLY & CO. .
( CHAPTER VI.-Co Tlausn ) .
At the Tower wharf he landed , paid
his passage and something over , and
walked away from the river , taking
several turns without hesitation or inquiry -
quiry , and finally making due east for
sonic distance. Another turn to the
right brought him , as he had calculated -
lated , straight ( Iowa upon the river
again at Wapping. In the not very
Probable case of any one having attempted -
tempted to follow him from the neighborhood -
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 ant
looked at the half-dozen boats 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 anal 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 communicative -
municative as could be wished. Before
they had gone half a mile he had justified -
fied the colonel's choice of him by replying -
plying at great length to four or five
tentative remarks ; but though his companion -
panion was keeping a sharp lookout ,
nothing seemed to hive him the opportunity -
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 , " lie said , "down here among
the shipping and the sailors. "
"You may say that , sir , " Was the reply -
ply ; "there's all sorts in Lime'us , from
a spanking lass like Susie Gaylord
down to old Nan with her black teeth
: ind her fathom o' foul tongue behind
'em. "
The colonel smiled. This might be
amusing , but it was not business , and
lie put It by.
"Ah , women , " he said ; "no doubt
they are always interesting , but I Was
thinking of men , and stories of adventure -
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 , gill and glum ,
stupid and smart uns-Why , they're all
different , and ye cant 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 Limelhouse. The boat ,
under the combined force of two strong
arm : and ebbing tide , was swiftly nearing -
ing is destination , and his opportunity
would soon have passed unused.
It was clear that some means must
be found of prolonging the conversation -
tion , for it would be ditiieult to open
another with so willing and so expansive -
sive a talker.
"It's a sharp mprnin , " 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 yell 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 mina telling you that I'm in that
line just now myself. "
"Are ye , though ? " asked his com-
paufon , looking at him with more sympathetic -
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
walking in the direction of a tavern
facing the river. On the sign-board appeared -
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 proved unsavory -
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 his
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
these parts a certain Herman John-
stone , who'll do it as well as another. "
"Black Johnny , eh ? " said his companion -
panion ; "swell , y e 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 lie
in hiding ? "
"The revenue coppers have had an
eye on him since that Esmeralda bus-
ncss , ye know , and they say the Admiralty -
miralty beaks 'd like to ask him some
questions , too , about the Jamaica trade.
hlind ye , I say nothing beyond what
I'm told myself , but I've heard that the
Jolly Roger and him have been fairly
well acquainted time and again. "
"Ah , " said the colonel , "that's an old
tale ; but what's this about the Esmer-
alda ? I've 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
his yarn.
"Well ) sir , " he began , "it was this
tray. The Esmeralda was off the south
coast at a convenient place none so far
Y
a- 1
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. Su this Tohnstone 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 dozen
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' darts. Only , while they were
full-handed , down came half a score
more on the other side , and the prisoners -
ers they got loose somehow wonlerfal
quick , and there was a bit of a light ,
but no firing , ye see , the officers no :
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 w itli it
in their own carts , to keep 'em quiet for
a bit. "
"Bravo ! " said the colonel ; "that's the
man for me ! Anl all I've got to do now
is to find hire ; do you know where he
lives ? "
The young man hesitated.
"No , " he said ; "leastways , not exactly -
ly ; but Mrs. Briggs within there'll tell
ye. "
This , however , 1Irs. Briggs in her
turn was equally unwilling to da ,
though the colonel stated frankly the
nature of his assumed errand. She
uffered , however , to send for Johnstone
! f the gentleman would be good enough
to wait and see him at the Outward
Bound'
To this the colonel ngreed , and Mrs.
Briggs disappeared in search of a
trusty messenger.
The Waterman , who had by this time
finshed ! his second glass and had been
liberally paid both in coin and thanks ,
showed no disposition to hurry his departure -
parture ; he was evidently hanging
about in hope of being a party to the interview -
terview between two such interesting
personages.
The colonel saw this. and recognized
that the open veranda in which they
had bea sitting was too public a place
for a discussion of the kind he anticipated -
pated ; for even if he could succeed in
dlsnissing ! his present eonhpanion it
was free to any passer-by to step ! n , or
indeed to overhear a conversation from
the street.
So he rose and looked idly about him
for a 1'e- moments , and ended by drifting -
ing 1'r
was there , and understood v hat he
wanted before ire spoke.
"You'll like to Ire alone , sir , " she said :
"there's an empty room upstairs , tw'o
pair back ; 'I'll send him up to you as
soon as he comes ; 'twon't be long now. "
The colonel stumbled un a narrow ,
rickety staircase , filled with dusty twilight -
light and the sine ! ! 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 , Band 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. "
His herculean strength , the violence
of his 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 his
own time and method of answering.
: t1y name , he said , in slow , precise
tones , "is Villeroy , and I live for the
present at No. 1 ? Canterbury Square ,
Southwark , I am from time to time
engaged in importing goods without the
assistance of the custom-house otfcials. !
I.have just now an unusually diflicult
venture on hand , and I have come to
London to engage a first-rate skipper. "
Johnstore's face relaxed a little. He
was pleased with the compliment implied -
plied , to say nothing of the prospect of
active employment of the kind he loved.
"Where you do want her landed ? "
he asked. ,
" , The landing , " replied the colonel , "is
not the chief difficulty ; it is in taking
the cargo on board that the danger
lies. "
"And where would that be done ? "
asked the other.
"That , said the colonel , I shall nrt
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.
What's the worlr ? "
. . 1
It ! s work of an unusual kind , " replied -
plied hM companion , "needing skill ,
strength , and courage ; but I'm told
you don't shirk danger when ! t comes in
the way of business. "
"Danger ! " 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 necessary -
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-
tl at is to say , 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 - wcrled , " said r ; the other ,
T 1'
r -K. .
with an oath , "then I'll do it. But what
a queer start of 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 go'.d
napoleon from his pocket ,
Its got that head upon it , he said ,
holding up the coin between his finger
and thumb.
"Something strongish , eh ? " said his
companion.
" rery strong ; ' said the colonel , with
dry humor.
"And plenty of it ? " asked the other.
"Enough , " replied the colonel , J'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 riot , " 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
y'ou ! I knew 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 address -
dress , " he said , and I did 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
a thousand ! "
"Alas ! " said the colonel , shaking his
head , "the bold are so apt to be shortsighted -
sighted ! Friend Johnstone , " he continued -
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 brill find , " said the colonel ,
"your address and that of this house ,
with a request to look for us at once in
both those places. '
'H'ell , ' prowled Johnstone , "shat
then ? "
"You are in request just now , " continued -
tinued the colonel , politely. "First , I
want you ; secondly , the revenue ofl'c-
cers wish to hear more of that little
joke about the Esmeralda ; 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. "
'T'here 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 he five , " said the colonel.
"And now unlock the door. "
'fLey went downstairs and out of the
house. At the river-side the colonel
made an appointment with his companion -
ion to meet at Southampton on a certain -
tain day , and stepped into a boat.
" \Pestminster steps , " he said to the
Waterman as they pushed off.
"You'll not forget to call at the cu-
torn house , sir , " Johnstone called
anxiously after him.
"Oh , there's no need for that , " replied -
plied the colonel. "I left nothing
there. "
And the boat shot swiftly up-stream
on the incoming tide.

STEADY FARMING.
: tistake of the f"arniera in Not Sticking
to Ait" ' One Tiring ,
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 dangerous -
gerous practices , says the Germantown
Telegraph. It is within the remembrance -
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
crop 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 themselves -
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
the sheep industry has been at its lowest -
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 payto 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 remembrance -
membrance of the writer when many
farmers paid $5 and $ G 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-prfced
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 enormous -
mous corn-fields , unmindful of the fact s
often that they do not understand its
culture nor the expenses attached to it.
Frequently they have to make an initial
outlay to adapt themselves to the
abrupt change , which alone will take
away all profits.

set of lancets and a cupping glass , from

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 b y
germs where the lung is too weak to conquer them.
The remedy is strength-vital force.
Scott's Emulsion , with h 'poPhosPkites , means the
adjustment of king strength to overcome germ-life.
It is fighting the germ with the odds m our favor.
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
good a start the germs had , and how carefully " -ou can
live. The shortest way to health is the 1 at.ent one.
The again is often slow.
