t 1 Strong, and Steady ly HORATK) ALGER, JR. OF1APTI3U XXIII. (Continued.) Leaving Wnltor busily engaged In sell ing books, wo will glance at the Prum nond household, and inquire how the aienibers of tiiat Interesting family fared ifter Walter's- departure. Joshua's discontent increased daily. IIo rv-ns now eighteen, and his father abso lutely refused to increase his allowance sf twenty-five cents a week, which was ;ertninly ridiculously small for a boy of Ma ngc. While he was thinking this matter over i dangerous thought entered his mind. His father, he knew, had a small brass aailcd trunk, in which he kept his money ind securities. He had seen him going 'o it more than once. "I wonder how much he's got in it," thought Joshua. "As it's all coming to mo some day there's no harm In my knowing." There seemed little chance of finding 3Ut, however. Tho trunk was always locked, and Mr. Drutnmond carried the toy about with him in his pocket. If he hod been a "careless man, there might bnve been some chance of his some day (caving the trunk unlocked, or mislaying the key ; but in money matters Mr. Drura mond was never careless. Joshua would have been obliged to wait years, if he had depended upon this contingency. One day, however, Joshua found in the road a bunch of keys of various sizes at tached to a ring. lie cared very little to whom they belonged, but it Hashed apon him at once that one of these keys might fit his father's strong box. He hur ried home at once with his treasure and ran upstairs breathless with excitement. He knew where the trunk was kept. Mr. Drummond, relying on the security of the lock, kept it in the closet of his bed dianiber. Joshua made his way at once to the iloset, and, entering, began to try his keys, one after the other. The very lest one was successful in opening the Hunk. Joshua trembled with excitement as he saw the contents of the trunk laid open to his gaze, ne turned over the papers nervously, hoping to come upon some rolls of bills. In one corner he found fifty dollars in gold pieces. Besides these, there were some mortgages, in which he felt little interest. But among the con tents of the trunk were some folded pa pers which he recognized at once ns Unit ed States bonds. Opening one of them, he found it to be a Five-Twenty bond for ive hundred dollars. Five hundred dollars! What could be aot do with five hundred dollars! He iould go to the city and board and enjoy himself meanwhile, till he could find a place. His galling dependence would be aver, and he would be his own master. True, it would be a theft, but Joshua had an excuse ready. "It will all be mine some day," he said to himself. "It's only taking a part of ny own in advance." He seized the gold, and the bond, hast Jy concealing both in his breast pocket, went downstairs, first locking the trunk, nd putting It away where he found it. He got out of the house without his mother seeing him, and made his way to railway station four miles distant, where he purchased a ticket for New York. He took a 'seat by a window, and, as the car began to move, he said to himself, in exultation, "N'jfw I am going to see life." CHAPTER XXIV. Three months later Walter arrived ct Columbus, the capital of the State, after a business tour of considerable length, during which he had visited from twenty to thirty different towns and villages. lie had now got accustomed to the business, and understood better what arguments to employ to those whom he wished to pur chase his book. The consequence was that he baa met with a degree of success which bad far exceeded his anticipations. He had tested his powers, and found that they were quite equal to the task he had undertaken that of earning his jwn living. He had paddled his own canoe thus far without assistance, and he felt confident that, if his health continued good, he should be able to do so here after. After eating supper, and spending an aour or two in the public room of the hotel, Walter went up to his room. Here he took out a blank boot, in which he kept an account of his sales and expendi tures, and, taking a piece of paper, fig ured up the grand result. He wished to know just how he stood. After a brief computation, he paid, with satisfaction, "I have sold two hun dred and eighty books, which gives a cross profit of three hundred and fifty dollars. My expenses have been exactly two hundred and sixty three dollars, That leaves me oighty-seven dollars net profit." This was a result which might well yield Walter satisfaction. He was only fifteen, and this was bis first business ex perience. Moreover, lie was nearly a thousand miles nway from home and frlonds, surrounded by strangers. 1'ct, by liis energy and business ability, he bad been able to pay all his expenses, and these, of course, were considerable, ns lie was constantly moving, and yet had made i dollar a day clear profit , "That is rather better than working for my board In Mr. Drummond's store," he reflected. "I am afraid it would have taken roe n long time to make my for tune if I had stayed there. I wonder how my amiable cousin Joshua is getting along." This thought led to tho sudden recol lection that ha had written to Mr. Shaw, asking him to write to the hotel at Co lumbus, where he was now stopping, giv ing him any news that he might consider interesting. Such a letter might be await ing him. He went downstairs, and approached the cleric. "Hare any letters been, received here for me?" he Inquired What name?" usked tho clerk. "Walter Conrad.'' "There is a letter for that address. It was received a week'slnce." "Give It to me," said Walter, eagerly. He took tho lettor, and recognized at once in the address Clement Shaw's: ir regular handwriting. Cut off, ns ho had been for over n month, from all com munication with former friends, ho grasp ed tho letter with a sensation of Joy, and hurried back to his room to read it quiet ly, and without risk of interruption. Tho letter ran as follows: "My Dear Young Friend I have just received your letter asking mo to write you at Columbus. I am glad to obtain your address, as I have a matter of im portance to speak of. First, however, let me congratulate you on the success you have met with as a book agent. It is not a business to which I should advise you to devote yourself permanently; but I have no doubt that the experience which you acquire, and the necessary contact into which it brings you with different classes of people, will do you good, while the new scenes which it brings before your eyes will gratify tho natural love of ndventure which you share In common with those of your age. When you sot out, X had misgivings ns to your success, I admit ,v It was certainly an arduous undertaking for a boy of fifteen; but you have already demonstrated that you are able to paddle your own canoe, and I shall hereafter feel confident of your success Jn life, so far at least as relates to earning your living. That you may also be successful in building up a good character, and taking an honorable posi tion among your fellow-men, I earnestly hope. "I now come to the business upon which I wish to speak to you. "You will remember that a man named James Wall was prominently identified with the Great Metropolitan Mining Com pany, by which your poor father lost his fortune. Indeed, this Wall, who Is a plausible sort of fellow, was the one who induced him to embark in this disastrous speculation. I suspect ho has feathered his. own nest pretty well already, and that he intends to do so still more. I was surprised to hear from him some ten days since. I will not copy the let ter, but send you the substance of it He reports that in winding up the affairs of the company there is a prospect of real ising two per cent for the stockholders, which, as your father owned' a thousand shares, would yield two thousand dollars. It may be some time, he adds, before tho dividend will be declared and paid. He professes a willingness, however to pay two thousand dollars cash for a transfer of your father's claims upon the com pany. "Xow, two thousand dollars are not to be despised ; but my impression is thnt such a man as James Wall would never have made such an offer if he had not expected the assets would amount to considerably more than two per cent I am unwilling to close with the offer until I know more about the affairs of the company. Here it has struck me that you can be of assistance. This Wail lives in a town named Portville, In Wiscon sin, on the shore of Lake Superior. I would suggest that you change your name, go at once to Portville, and find out what you can. I can give you no in structions, but must trust to your own native shrewdness, in which I feel sure you are not deficient If it should be necessary to give up your present busi ness, do so without hesitation, since tho other business is of more importance. I will write Mr. Wall that I have his offer under consideration. If you need money, draw upon me. "I hear that Joshua Drummond has run away from liome, carrying away con siderable money belonging to his father. The latter appears to lament the loss of his money more than of his son. "I remain your sincere friend, "CLEMENT SHAW." Tliis letter gave Walter .much food for reflection. He determined to give up his book agency, and leave as soon as pos sible for Portville. It was encouraging to think that, in any event, he was likely to realize two thousand dollars from the minine shares, which he had looked upon as valueless. Besides, he felt there was every reason to hope they would prove even more valuable. Three days later, having closed his ac counts as agent he started for Portville. He bad made a new start in life, and this unexpected money would prove a stepping stone to new ambitions. His future proved his courage and integrity, with his motto nlways, "Strong and Steady." Walter found a cheap boarding house and gave his name as Carl Walters. He at once made inquiries about James Wall. lie found out that WdU was regarded ns a shrewd speculator and was associated with sevoral men of dubious business rep utation in various copper and iron min ing enterprises. Tho man had nn oflico employing sev eral clerks, who sent out considerable advertising matter offering shares of stock to investors at a distance AValter man aged to get employment In the office. Within fivo days he had learned all the ins and outs of tho business; In ten he was ready to make a move in Ids own in terests. Tho stock for which Shaw had been offered two thousand dollars ho discov ered was really worth ten thousand dol lars. i Walter hired a lawyer. When ha left Portville ho carried with him a check for a small fortune. Stapleton was his destination. waiter decided to Invest some of his money In a gqneral store there. Joshua Drummond wbh surprised and Indignant when he learned of this now business rival, but Ayalter went steadily on his way. lie made a complete success of the enterprise. New ambitions arose as time went on, and his futurp proved his courage and Integrity with his motto' always "Strong and Steady." (Thk Em.) A Ho never Uvea to be old.

The "Priory" at Bicester, pear Ox ford, England, which, ns Its nnme In dicates, occupies the site of a former religious house, has quite lately been purchased by the Community of Olive tan Benedictine nuns, who, having been expelled from their house In Normandy, sought refuge In Bicester some five years ago. They had the happiness re cently of celebrating a religious pro fession tjiereln the first that has taken place there since the Reformation. For centuries Europe has enjoyed a monopoly on cathedrals, the highest ex ponents of Christian architecture. Dur ing the last few years, however,, nearly a dozen beautiful structures have been in course of erection or have been com pleted In the United States, nnd the time may come when the whole land will be dotted with these mnsterpleces of art. One of these, now building at St. Paul, under the direction of Arch bishop Ireland,, will bo ono of the finest tn this country.

Investigating the effect of compressed air on health, two British engineers have shown that n pressure of ninety two pounds a squnre ijioh more than six ntinospheres mny bo endured with out tniplensnnt results. Tho pressure must be taken off nt a uniform rate, however, nt least twenty minutes being allowed for ench fifteen pounds of re duction, nnd cnplllnry circulation in the body must be kept up by muscular exercise during compression, Slight temporary neuralgic pain In the arms was tho only 111 effect of tho great pressure.

'Cruel, heartless girl I You swore you loved me, nnd now I discover that your father is a bankrupt." Ground AVlro Fence. In tho summer Benson ninny farmers susstnin considerable loss of live Btock from lightning striking wlro fences nnd killing nnlmnls standing near. Tills loss can bo avoided If tho fenco Is grounded that Is! n connection mndo between tho wires nnd tho dump soli beneath. This enn bo done by stapling n No- 0 wire along tho post from top to bottom and burying tho end In tho ground deep enough to reach damp earth. Theso ground wires should bo fastened to about every third post. Wheu tho light ning strikes n fence thus fixed the cur rent Is conducted Into. tho ground In tead of being deflected into tho body f somo anlmnl. When n storm comes up stock In a field will naturally drift toward tho fenco for protection, especially If there nre no trees In the field. Tho barbs on wires nttrnct tho lightning, which hns been known to travel several miles on a fence beforo It was discharged Into the ground. Lightning takes tho pnth of least resistance, nnd If the body of nn animal Is standing near tho fence It makes a good conductor and tho charge Is deflected, with tho result of dead horse or cow. The cost and time needed to ground wire fence Is smnll and need not en ter into the question, but when a valu able anlmnl Is killed, or mnybe n whole herd, ns has often happened, tho cost Is then very considerable. While you mny never bnve had ony losses of this kind, It will not pay to put this matter off, for tho next storm thnt comes up mny be as disastrous to yon ns It Iiiih been to some of your neighbors- Avoid It by grounding your wlro fences In time.

Eight hundred thousand of these parasites have been secured, and nt the right moment will be set upon the nemy. A slngulnr fact Is that tho moths do not recognize the para sites ,it enemies, but seem to find their presence grateful.

State supervision of all bridges erect ed Is proposed by Stale Engineer Fred erick Skeno of .New York. Thnt gen tleman has drawn up n projiosed law covering the matter. He would require his approval, as well as the approval of the county engineer, of the plans and specifications of every bridge ex ceeding ?."i00 In cost to be built by n town. He also recommends that con tracts for such bridges be required to bo awarded to the lowest bidder, after the work has been properly advertised, nnd, finally, that the approval of tho State engineer bo required beforo pay ment for a completed bridge Is made. There Is a law In that State providing that the assistance of the Stale engi neer mny bo Invoked to superintend such constructions, but It has been Ig nored by the counties and towns, and contracts have been Irregularly award ed, with the result that there are runny Inferior structures.

This Is disputed in a recent writing by Dr. A. W. Bothwlck In his "Notes of the Royal Botanical Gordon of Edinburgh."
