A PAPER TOR THE PEOPIJE.

BOUND TO WIN.

[Cbnfmwed from JFjftA "Bell Diamond." "Oh, what a pretty name—a good deal like a girl's, though!"cried Miss Ella. "Tat!" cried the lather, with a merry twinkle ia his eye. "I'm afraid you are exciting our patient too much." '"I've made him saiile and blush anyway," pouted the spoiled maiden, "and it too"k you and the doctor an hoar to make him even groan."

The gentleman, who was Mr. Charles Dupage, manager of the Tloston & Cedarville railroad, then drew the entire story of his mission to Oedarville from Bell. "I will talk with you in the morning," he said. "You have no idea of the amount of iron in the ruins of the old foundry?" "No, sir." ""Nor of the condition of the engine and boiler?" "I hare not" "I will introduce you to a friend in the iron business in a day or two, and will aid you all I can. Meanwhile, young man. you must remain as my guest." "Oh, sir—" "Not a word! Your bravery deserves a reward I will not even hint at by offering you money, and your enterprise is worthy ot the commendation of every man of business. Ella, can you not give us some music?"

Thus requested, the young lady complied with her father's request, and Bell Diamond passed an hour never to be forgotten during his life.

He retired to a pretty apartment to rest early in the evening, ana awoke the following morning somewhat weak and sore, but feeling almont recovered from the effects of the bruises received in his adventure of the previous day.

CHAPTER IV. A STREAK OF LUCK.

No one was astir in the house except the servants when Bell arose. He completed his toilet and descended to the library below. Its well filled shelves afforded him a pleasure for over an hour that he had never before known, and he was aroused from the deep perusal of a book on railways when a young man, a little older than himself, entered the apartment. "Halloo!" cried the young man, elevating his eyes in surprise. "Good-morning," said Bell, courteously, recognizing in the new comer Edward Dupage, the 6on of his host, whose portrait he had seen hanging over the piano.

He wore a careless, dissipated look, and his absence the evening before at the theatre had been severely commented on by Mr. Dupage in Bell's presence.

The children's mother was an invalid, confined to her room, and the two had grown up self willed and unrestrained. While this neglect only tended to girlish vivacity in Ella, it brought out a decided relish for fast life on the part of her brother. "Ill ring for the servants and order a footstool or the governor's wine and cig are," continued the young man, chuck ling at his own wit, "or perhaps you'd like his check book and dressing gown." "No," good humoredly returned Bell "I am very comfortable now."

Edward scowled, and proceeded to light a cigarette, drew an easy chair to the window, and elevated his feet on the sill. "I say, who are you, anyhow?" continued the young gentleman. "You ain't my cousin Sam Arnold, from the kentry, are you naow?" he asked, with a drawl on the last wordx. "Is Sam Arnold your cousin?" asked Bell, with some surprise. "Yes, they tell me so. I never saw the young gentleman, having usually been abroad for my health. Do you know him?" "Yes." "What's your name?" "Bell Diamond." "Well, Bill—" •'Bell." "Well, Bill or Bell, it's all the same to me, what's the racket here, anyhow." "The—the what?" asked Bell, in innocent ignorance of the slang interrogation.

The racket—the biz?" "Da you mean what brings me here?" inquired B. ll calmly. He saw the lad regarded him as an inferior, and resolved to guard against any anger on his part, under any provocation, for tbe sake of his generous host. "Just so," drawled Edward, with a puff of smoke through the window. "Your father's invitation." replied Bell. "Oh, I see—one of tne governor's friends a director of tbe road, perhaps." "Not ye ," replied Bell. "Came on from Podunk to invest in stock, perhaps,"sneered the youth. "Edward!"

The young man sprang to his feet and flung his cigarette through the window, as he

anted ad oonfronted his father. "We will dispense with any further remarks of that character," said Mr. Dupage. sternly.

Edward made a sly grimace and left U3 room. "I fear you are not favorably impressed with my son," said Mr. Dupage. "He is rather lively," replied Bell, with a faint smile. "His life at college has not made him a gentleman, by any means," said Mr. Dupage, gravely. "How are you this morning?' "Much better, thank you." "Ready for burines* to-day?" queried the gentleman, with a suite. •T hope so, sir." "Yon must i**t to-day, at {east. Tomorrow I will introduce you to the iron merchant."

At this moment Elta entered the library and welcomed the guest. "Did you rest well, my hero?" she asked with a pleasant smile. "Yes I dreamed of an aagel all night." "Then you most have been thinking of met" saucily returned the little witch. ^"Ym are right."

They adjourned to the breakfast room and soon alter the aaeal Mr. Dupage went down to his office, leaving the young man alone with his children, and, pointing to Edward, ordered that he should remain and entertain his guest. "I **¥, don't yon find those books a deucedboreP asked the latter, as they returned to the library and Bell became interested in looking over the volume* on tbe abelves of the various book cases. "No: I love them I wish I bed them at

"Humph! queer taste. Have a cigar?" "I never smoke." "Then come down town and have a game of billiards with me." $ "I don't understand the game I "You're a queer one," growled the fast young man. "The governor wanted me to entertain you I can't read toyou, when yon can read yourself, so I'm off for down town," and he departed unceremoniously

The books and Ella's charming com'

fate

»any passed the day most pleasantlv, and, in the afternoon, the young lady invited her guest to drive down to her fath er's offioe.

This he did, and Mr. Dupage accompa nied them home. "By the way, Mr. Diamond," he said, when thev reached the house, "there was a dispatch came to the office to-day. It arrived this afternoon over the line from Clifton, and as the telegraph offioe is in our building, inquiry was made for Bell Diamond, Esq- among the different departments. Fortunately I heard the name and captured the dispatch. Here it is."

Bell hurriedly opened it and read: "The supply room, under the ruins of the shop, was unearthed last night. We have taken out nearly five hundred pounds of Babbitt metal. "EDWARD DARRELL." "Good news, Bell?" inquired Mr. Dupage, as he noticed ^the pleased glow on the lad's face. "I think so. What is Babbitt metal, Mr. Dupage?" "Babbitt metal is a composition of lead and chemicals." "What is it uaed for?" "For rims, and in boilers, pipes, and other jointed machinery. "Is it valuable?" "It rules at thirty to thirty-five cents a pound." "One hundred and fifty dollars!" exclaimed Bell, excitedly. "What is it, Bell?" queried Ella. "My superintendent—" "Oh, oh!" cried the tormenting Ella. "Our superintendent, then," laughed the young man, "has taken nearly five hundred pounds out of the ruins of the old shop." "You're in luck, Bell," said Mr. Dupage, in a pleasant tone of voice. "You can make your first payment now." "Yes, sir but I must have the money before a load is removed." "I guess we can arrange that, Bell. We'll talk about it in the morning."

The following morning Bell bade Ella good-by, despite her earnest request for him to remain a few days longer. AJB he stood holding her hand and bidding her farewell, she hesitated in her speech. "Shall I see you again, my hero?" she asked with a forced smile, for she felt a great interest in her newly made friend. "I hope so." "Bell," she said in a trembling tone of voice, "I know you are too proud to take any money or aid from us for your kindness to me, but—" "Good-by."

Before he knew it she had burst into tears and fled. He was a happy lad that day and when he left the office of the Excelsior foundry, to the proprietor of which he had been favorably introduced by Mr. Dupage, he carried in his pocket, in addition to the promise of the manager to buy all his iron, an advance check on the Babbitt metal for one hundred and fifty dollars.

Mr. Dupage was busy in his private office when Bell entered that afternoon to bid him good-by, but he called him to his side. "Well, my friend," he said kindly. "I wish to see your on a matter of busi ness, sir. Your company has two unem-

gloved

way-cars lying on the off-switch at liftoo. I wish to rent them for two weeks." "Rent them?" echoed Mr. Dupage. "You are not going to live in them, are you?" "No, sir." "You intend to use them for storing purposes, maybe?" "No, sir." "What, then?" "I wish to use them in transporting my iron and metal from Clifton to Cedarville." "But you have no engine?" "I shall use horses."

The railroad manager was pleased with the enterprise of his youthful friend. "You can have their use as long as you want them and Bell, I want to see you on your next visit to Cedarville. "I shall be sure to call, sir." "I wish you to accept a small present from me." "Please do not mention it again, Mr. Dupage. The pleasure I have known the past few days has cancelled any debt you may have thought due to due me. Good-by, sir." "Good-by, my dear boy, and may God bless you!" and with a warm shake of the hand, tbe railroad manager saw the youth depait.

Bell immediately went to the bank, and received his cash—one hundred and fifty dollars.

He little thought, as he stowed the money safely away in an inner pocket that a pair of eager eyes was following his every movement

He selected a stoat cudgel from a tree, as he left the village, and struck off along the railroad for Clifton, jutt at dask, never suspecting that a figure was stealthily following in bis tracks and that wicked designs were upon his life. How Bell Diamond is "Bound to Win" will be further related in tbe Saturday Evening Mail, next week.

RULES FOR KAtlNQ.

Eat slowly, as if it was a pleasure you desired to prolong, rather than a duty to be performed as soon as possible.

Don't bring your prejudices, your dislike*, jour annoyances, your past misfortunes, or future forebodings on the table. They would spoil the best dinner.

Respect tbe hours of meals: you have no tight to injure the tempo- of tbe cook, destroy tbe flavor of the viands and the comfort of the family by your want of punctuality.

Have as much variety in vour food as possible, bat not many dishes served at one time.

Find ae little fault as^possibie with tbe food prepared, and praue whenever you can.

Finally, be thankful If you have no meat, that you have at least an appetite, and hope for something better in the future.

THERE Is no doubt about tbe Swim Liver Compound being tbe best family medicine in this oounrty for the Liver and Bl'Kci. It a becoming the most pgpul*r remedy.

HIN1S FOR FAMILY GOVERN-MENT.-J*

CORRECT HABITS.

From the very first, children should be subjected to good habits in every respect. Especially with regard to eating, drinking, sleeping, studying nnd any industry they may follow. This will save the parent much trouble and be a lasting source of strength to thechild in later years. With many life consists largely in trying to overcome vicious habits which need never haye been formed.

TEMPER. IV

Some children are high tempered and easily fly into a passion are easily irritated and prone to anger. All such should be treated temperately, and they should not be subjected to any influence which will excite them. As they grow older they should be taught self-control and to use vigorously their wills to hold any burst of emotion in check. Much of the irritability of children is the outgrowth of imperfect digestion and the action of unnatural food and bad air on the tender, nerves of the child.

AFFECIION IN THE FAMILY. There is a general impression that in American families there is less affection shown by parents to their children than there ought to be. Many parents with puritanical habits of thought are cold, austere and reserved towards the little ones which heaven has committed to their charge. Kissing is almost unknown in some families, and the pleasant greetings at morning, noon and night, do not exist. This is all wrong. Affections should rule in every home: The family life should be full of sweetness, tenderness and beauty. And especially should it be manifested towards the children. Cultivate, then, you parent", affection as one of the beautiful flowers of humanity which will bear most precious fruit.

1

,,

It is an old saying that children "brought up under their mothers' apronstrings are most likely to go wrong when thrown on their own guidance, and when they once go astray they go to the wildest excesses." Such government represses instead of fosters self-control. The child which is constantly watched, and never trusted, is pretty sure to abuse its liberty when acquired. Not all children can be tied to the apron-strings, but when such nature exists every possible effort should be given to invigorate the whole nature and foster self-reliance, both physical and intellectual. Nothing is more debilitating to the character than to be held closely to "mothers' apron-strings."

EMOTIONAL CHILDREN

Some children are too emotional in their natures. They are all feeling, all tenderness, all excitement. Now emotion is neceesary and constitutes the larger part of one's nature. It seems to be a sort of safty-valve through which the excess of nervous energy flows off. But if so much flows off that there is sufficient 'for the practical needs of life, then there is a waste. The reservoir of force, is drained to the very bottom. Emotional children need special care. The muscles need development, the will needs strengthening and tne intellect cultivating. The more the intellect is developed and exercised on practical knowledge^ the less danger will there be of the emotion becoming exoeseive.

EARLY ASSOCIATIONS.

Make the early aarociations of the child of such a nature that it will be pleasant in mature life to look back upon them. To do this it is not necessary to surround it with elegances, but only give it opportunities to enjoy nataral existence. Companions, studies, sports, amusements, should all produce a pleasant impression. Their affectional nature should not be blasted and chilled. Impressions acquired first last longest. Even in old age we remember oar childhood's joys and ssrrows more vividly than our maturer experiences.

N'1 MISTAKES OP PARKKTS. Parents often over-estimate the ability of children to do what is right. A little child has very little experience to fall back upon to correct its errors. Its little judgment is immature, and parents should make allowance for this in all their discipline.

CKtum.

Some children are made old before their time by a false method of training. They are taught things beyond their years, know what they ought not to know till older. Especially is this the case with children brought too earlv into society. They jump from childhood to early maturity, and all the bloom of youth a lost. Wise parents do not permit this.

MISUNDERSTOOD CHILDREN.

Sometimes a child inherits or acquires a trait of character which neither parent posatnses except in embryo, or if they do possew it, it is hidden by the necessities of practical life. It may be a love for mapie* poetry, nataral hist cry, art or me­

chanics. The whole bent of the child's mind turns to things which the parent considers useless. Such children are apt to be scolded and laughed at, and perhaps forbidden to indulge in their mucu-loved inclinations. This is cruel—wrong. It in the parents' duty to understand the nature and disposition of thechild,and train it in accordance with that nature. Only by so doing can they fulfil their own obligations and mgjntfiui respect which they deserve.

HARDENING CHILDREN.

Tender, delicate children need hardening, but it must be done nicely and not by excessive exposure or privation. It should be done gradually and cautiously, by degrees, and little at a time. If done in this way, hardening is beneficial, otherwise it often hardens them out of the world.

FOR THE FARM.

Give your hogs a rubbing post in some aocessible part of their inclosure it facilitates their keeping clean, and seems to afford them much satisfaction.

Common soda, such as they use in making bread, dissolved in water, and used as a wash, will sometimes remove warts, says a farmer. Another says a strong wash of alum water is a cure.

Gardening is regular and practically taught in more than 200,000 primary schools in France. Every school house has its garden, and teachers mast be not only good gardeners, but qualified to teach horticulture, or they cannot pass examination.

Wheat requires a fine and mellow soil it 1b best if compact below and roughish on the top. If there are any clods, these should be brought up from below by repeated harrowings and broken by the roller or the disk harrow. If they cannot be broken up completely, they are better on the top than below the surface. A roller will break many.

If moderation is needed anywhere on the farm, it is in the driving of cows. A boy or a dog that will hurry and therefore worry the cows as they are taken to and from the pasture should be—to put it mildly—attended to. Boys, do not run the cows home even it is getting late, especially if it is on the way to the yard, and their udders are full of milk.

The digestion of a horse is governed by the same laws as that of a man, and, as we know that is not best for man to go at hard work the moment a hearty meal is eaten, so we should remember that a horse ought-to have a little rest after his meal, while the stomach is most active in the process of digestion. Many a good horse has been ruined by injudicious haste in working him with a full stomach.

A good remedy for lice on cattle is water in which potatoes were boiled. For every one of your cattle take two quarts of water and eight middle-sized potatoes cut in half. If you have ten cattle yon must take eightypotatoes and twenty quarts of water. Wnen the potatoes are soft take them out Get a large sponge and wash the cattle freely on a warm day. Comb them with a curry-comb, and you will be astonished to see the effects of the potato water.

According to the Maine Farmer a culti* vator levelled off twenty feet square of a pen where cows had been yarded, spread a bushel or more of wood ashes, prepared the ground properly, eewed it in onions, watered them just as they came up with tepid manure water, and gathered twenty bushels. This would be about two and a half pounds of onions to every square foot, or at tlie rate of about 2,150 bushels per acr& A big story, but not impossible, when all conditions are favorable.

The Nashville Rural Sun says:' "The best way to keep butter is to "exclude the air from it and keep it in a cool, sweet place but the first is most important. II the butter is in a pail, tub or jar, cover it one or two inches with the strongest brine, made from the best salt. Remember, it will not do to simply -cover it with salt the air will pass through the brine. If the package has a tight-fitting cover so much the better. The bent butter exposed to the air it will rot keep perfect twentyfour hours. Butter for the family should be kept constantly under the brine."

It is the duty of pa'rents to do everything in their* power to bring up their children to be gentle, kind and with a love for home. One of the easiest ways to do this is to give the boy a horse, a doe or some kind of an animal, or give him the entire control ot a fine lot of poultry— not mongrels, but something he will value, ana so care lor. You will in thiB way create a love for home, and thus keep him from loafing on the street or at the store, leading for years an almost purposeless existence, in which the seeds of vice, dissipation and after wretchedness are so thickly sown.

The season of harvest is theproper time to select seed corn. First look for such ears as being perfectly ripe are also perfect in form. Small cobs are the best keepers, as the cob contains BO large a quantity of moisture that the ear is liable to retain dampness. Reject red cobs in white corn. A sound ear that has ripened early, with grains full And perfect, and a medium-sited cob, is the best for seed. Store the ears in a dry place free from rats and mice, and where an even temperature can be maintained. Let the grain remain on tbe cob until planting time. Shell by hand, and rejcct the small grains near the point of the oob.

Every good farmer knows that to insure satisfactory crops his land mast be cultivated in tbe best manner, and if it is so cultivated few weeds will be found upon it. Sometimes, even upon well managed farms, afield here and there, owing to adverse weather, a shortness of hands or a rush of work geoerally, may be neglected for a few davs and the weed* may get a start bat this happens rarely, and an observing man can always judge of the character of the farmer by glancing his eye over the premises. If the weeds are not to be ranlarly and systematically destroyed, tne idea of conducting »s.~.wua.i operations profitably may as well be abandoned. for the one ia incompatible with the otner.

Corn ia the cheapest food that American farmers can grow for feeding stock. Tbe flngU«h farmers who grow turnips so largely would diminiah their root crop one-half or more if their climate could grow corn. Even with the disadvantage of having to buy corn and pay transportation across the ocean, they are every year using it more largely. In nutritive value, American corn can be afforded more cheaply than English farmers can grow it In turnips. Our summers are hot and dry, and as ill-adapted to roots as English summers are to oorn. Still we need roots, not as food for stock, for we can get that

more cheaply otherwise, but as appetizer*, and to keep the animals in good condition.

On the subject of keeping eggs the following has b«?n contributed to a country

Eept

aper: "I would say that eg,-s c. & the year round. Pack ihrui in a box with oats (ends down), and nail a cover on nicely when fall then take another box about four inches larger each way, put about two inches of planter in the bottom of this box, then set the box with the eggr into this box and fill all around and on top with plaster, then put a cover on thii box and put away in a cool place. Turn the box each alternate day. A gentleman who once dealt in eggs informed tbe Reccord that he knew of an egg being furgot ten in a lot of oat», where it remained three years, and when taken out was perfectly sound.
