TRONG AMD STEADY
By HORATIO ALGER, JR.
CIIAPTI3II XII.
Walter tveut tip to h!s room, nnd hast
ily packed his trunk, lie felt wronged
and outraged by the unfounded charge
that had been made against him. Why,
ho argued, should Mr. Drummond so read
ily decide that ho had cheated him out of
five dollars? He felt that ho could not,
with any self-respect, remain nny longer
under the same roof with a man who had
such a poor opinion of him.
Ho was not sorry that his engagement
was nt an end. Ho had obtained some
knowledge of tho dry goods business, and
he knew that his services were worth
more than his board. Then, again,
though ho was not particular about liv
ing luxuriously, tho fare nt Mr. Drum
mond's was so uncommonly poor that he
nu sometimes long for one of the abun
dant and Well-cooked meals which he used
to have spread before him nt home, or
even nt his boarding house while a "pupil
ol the Kssox Classical Institute. Ho was
racking his trunk, when a step was beard
on the stairs, nnd his door was opened by
Mr. Drummond, considerably to Walter's
surprise.
The fact is that Mr. Drummond, on
realizing what a mistake he bad made,
nnd that Joshua was the real culprit, felt
that he hud gone altogether too far, and
he realized that he would be severely cen
sured by Walter's friends in Willough
by. Iie-sides, it wns just possible that
Walter might, after all, recover a few
thousand dollars from hw father's estate,
and therefore it wns better to be on good
terms with him. Mr. Drummond deter
mined, therefore, to conciliate Walter, and
induce him, if possible, to remain in his
house and employ.
"What nre you doing, Conrad?" he ask
ed, on entering, Walter's chamber. "Sure
ly you are not 'going to leave us."
"I think it best," said Walter, quiet
ly. "l'ou won't ahem ! bear malice on ac
count oi the little mistake I have made.
We are all liable to mistakes."
"It was something more than a mis
take, Mr. Drummond. What had vou
seen in me to justify you in such a sud
den charge of dishonesty?"
"Well, Conrad, I v. us mistaken. I shnll
be glad to have you come back to the
store as before."
"Thank you. Mr. Drummond, but I
have decided to go back to Willoughby
for a short time. I want to consult Mr.
Shaw about the future. It is time I
formed some plant, as I shall probably
have to earn my living."
"If you have made up your mind, all
I have to say is that my humble dwelling
will be ever open to receive you in the
future. Perhaps, after a short visit at
your old home, you may feel inclined to
return to my employment. I will give you
a dollar a week, besides board."
Mr. Drummond looked as if he felt
that this was a magnificent offer, for
which Walter ought to feel grateful. But
our hero knew very well that he could
commaud better pay elsewhere, and was
not particularly impressed. Still, he wish
ed to be polite.
"Thank you for your offer, Mr. Drum
mond," he said ; "but I am not prepared
Jto say, as yet. 'what 1 will do."
"i hope," said Mr. Drummond, rather
embarrassed, "you won't speak of our
little difference to your friends in Wil
loughby." "No, sir; not if you wish .me not to do
BO.
By this time the trunk was packed,
nnd Walter, locking it, rose from his
knee..
"If it won't be too much trouble, Mr.
Drummond," he said, "I will send for
my trunk to-morrow."
"Certainly. Why don't you wait till
to-morrow yourself?"
"As I am ready, I may as well take
the afternoon train. I will go down and
bid good-by to Mrs. Drummond."
Mrs. Drummond had just come from
the kitchen. She looked with surprise nt
Walter and her husband, whose presence
n the. house at that hour was unusual.
".wtiat is the matter?" she asked.
"Conrad is going home a short lime
on business," explained Mr. Drummond.
"I have offered him increased pay if
he will return to the store. I hope be
may decide to do so. Our humble roof
will ever be ready to shelter him."
Just at that moment Joshua, uncon
scious of the damaging discovery that had
been made relative to himself, entered
the room.
"Hello! what's up?" he asked.
It"was the first time his father had seen
him since the discovery of his dishon
esty, nnd his anger wns kindled.
"You ought to be ashamed to show your
face here, you young reprobate!" be ex
claimed. Joshua" stared In amazement, and Mrs.
Drummond exclaimed, "What makes you
talk ho, Mr. Drummond? What has he
done?"
"What has he done?" ejaculated Mr.
Drummond, adding, rather ungramatlcnl
ly. "He's a tjilef that's what he's done.
It would serve him right if I should flog
him within, an inch of bis life."
"If you try it," said Joshua, sullenly.
"I'll have you arrested for assault and
battery."
"Take care, boy. or you may find your
self in custody for theft."
"What do all these dreadful words
mean?" asked Mrs, Drummond, distress
ed. "Tell me, Walter, if you know."
"I would rather Mr. Drummond in
formed you," said Walter,
"I'll toll you, Mrs. Drummond," said
her husband. "That boy sold a shawl a
fortnight ago, when alone In tho store,
and pocketed tho money."
"Who snid I did?" asked Joshua, bold
ly, though ho looked a little pale.
"Tho woman who bought it of you was
In tho store to-day." . .'
"Did she know my nnme?"
"No; but she described you."
"I remember now.'
"What made you keep the money?"
"I didn't. I waited till .Conrad came
Perhaps ho forgot to put It In the draw
er."
"That's a lie, Joshua Drummond 1" said
Wnlter, quietly, "and yon know It is. I
think your father knows It is also."
"Do you mean to say I He?" blustered
Joshua.
"I wouldn't If I wasn't obliged to; but
In my own defense I 'am compelled to do
so.
'What could I want of tho money?'
demanded Joshua.
"I think you wanted the money to buy
lottery ticKcts with," said Walter, calmly
"To buy lottery tickets with !"
"What does this mean, Joshua?" de
manded his father, sternlv.
"It's a lie!" said Joshua, unblushtngly.
i an you prove this charge which vou
nave made against my son?" asked Mr.
Drummond, turning to Walter.
"1 can, but I am sorry to be obliged to
do so. I picked up this letter a day or
two since, nnd intended to give It back to
Joshua, but it escaped my mind. I would
not have exposed him if he bnd not tried
to charge me with theft."
He placed in Mr. Drummond's hands
the letter already given, announcing to
Joshun that he had drawn a blank. Mr.
Drummond read it with no little anger,
for he detested lotteries.
"Unhappy boy!" ho said, addressing
Joshua. "1 understand now what became
of the live dollars. This decides me to do
what 1 had intended to do sooner. I
have supported you in laziness long
enough. It is time you went to work
Next week you must go to work. 1 will
take you into my store; but as I nm not
sure of your honesty, if I find you ap
propriating money to your own use, I will
put you into n shoe shop and make a
shoemaker of you.
This was an alarming threat to Joshua,
who had a foolish gride, which led him to
look upon a trade as less "respectable than
i he mercantile profession. He olunk out
of the house, while Wnlter set out on
foot for the railway station, tkree-quar
.ors of a mile distant.
Into the store, and gave the money to
him. What be did wJtu It, i uon i unow.

Five minutes later be was occupying n
seat, or, rather, half a seat, for there sat
next to him a brisk, energetic-looking man
of about thirty years of age. He had been
reading the morning paper, but apparent
ly he had got through with it, for lie fold
ed it up and put it in his pocket.
"Fine day," he said, briskly.
"Yes, sir, very fine," answered Walter.
"Some people are affected by the weath
er; I am not." pursued his fellow trav
eler. "I feel as smart one day as an
other. I'm always cheerful. I've got too
much business to do to mope. When -a
man's got enough to busy himself about,
he hasn't time to be in the dumps."
"There's a good deal In that," said
Walter.
"Of course there is. Push along, keep
moving, that's my mqlto. Are you in
business?"
"No, sir, not at present."
"I'm in the subscription book business
got an office in New York. We send
out agents everywhere to canvass for our
publications. Lots of money in it."
"Is there?"
"Yes. I used to be an agent myself,
nnd. though I say it, I don't think there
are many agents that can get ahead of
me. Sometimes I used to make twenty
dollars a day. At last I thought I'd like
to settle down, so I bought partnership,
and now, instead of being an agent. I
send out ngents."
"Isu't twenty dollars a day pretty large
for an agent to make?" asked Walter.
"Yes, there are not many who do it,
but plenty make from five to ten right
along. You lopk as if you would make
a good agent."
"What makes you think so?" asked
Walter.
"You look smart."
"Thank you," said Walter, laughing.
"I am afraid you won't think so much
of my ability when I tell you that I
have been vorking for the last three
months for my board."
"It's a shame. You'd better come with
us. We'll do much better by you than
that."
"I am going to consult some friends
about ray future plans. If you are. will
ing to tell me a little of your business,
I will think of what you propose."
"I have with me our latest publication.
It's going like wildfire. Just the thing
to please the people. I will show it to
you."
Walter looked with interest while his
new acquaintance drew out from a car
petbag, which he had beneath the seat, a
good-sized parcel wrapped in brown pa
per. Untying it, he produced a bulky
octavo, in flashy binding, nnd abounding
in illustrations. He opened the book nnd
turned over the leaves rapidly. 4
"It's stuffed full of Illustrations, you
see." snid be. "Ilic expense of the pic
tures alone was absolutely c-nor-mous!"
he added, dwelling upon the last word by
way of emphasis, "But we're going to
mnko it pay. The sale will be Immense.
Our agents already In the field report re
markable sales."
"What's the title of tho book?" asked
Walter, who had yet 4jeen unable to de
termine this point, by reason of the rapid
turning of tho pages.
"'Scenes in Bible Lands.' We Include
other countries besides Palestine, and
we've made a book that'll sell. Most every
family will want one."
"What terms do you offer to agents?.'
"Why, the book sells at retail at three
dollars and fifty cunts. Of this the agent
keeps one dollar and twenty-five cents.
Pretty good, isn't it?"
"Yes, I should think It wns."
"You see you have only to sell four
copies a day to make five dollars. If
you're smart, you can do better than
that."
It really did seem very good to Walter,
who couldn't help comparing it with the
miserable wages he had received from Mr,
Drummond.
I "I think that wo.nld pay very well,"
ho said.
'"Most paying- business out," said the
other.. "Say the word, nnd I'll engage
you on the spot."
"Where would you want mo. to sell?"
"I should like to have you go ' West.
This way districts are mostly taken up.
It would give you n good chance to travel
and seo tho world."
Now Walter was, like most other young
people, fond of new scenes, nnd this con
sideration wns n weighty one. It would
enable him to travel, and pay his expenses

"Good-by," said Mr. Pusher, cordially,

In mixed breeding, or cross breed
ing, nothing Is accomplished beyond
j the first cross, says a Colorado veter
inary bulletin. While a few good In
dividuals may be secured, the tend
ency Is for the progeny to be below
rather fhan above the average. A man
conducting his breeding In a haphaz
ard way Is contending with fearful
odds, groping In the dark following a

After animals have been graded up
to n practical purity of blood, the
longer they nro bred along this line
the more prepotent they become, nnd
the more certain thnt the offspring
will uniformly possess general excel
lence of form, quality, action and
utility.
The same Is, of course, true of nil
live stock. The only certain method
of rnlshig the average standard of ex
