I sacrifice myself on the altar of truth," They bent their heads low together over the watch ; it was not easy to make out the time. "It's nine o'clock," said Staniford. It can't be; it was half -past when 1 came up," answered Lydia. "One hand's at twelve and the other st nine," he said, concluaively. "Oh, then it's a quarter to twelve." She caught away her hand from his arm, and fled to the gang -way. "1 didn't dream it was so late." - The pleasure which her confession brought to his face faded at sight of Hicks, who was turning the last pages of a novel by the cabin lamp, as he fol- lowed Lydia in. It was the book that Staniford had given her. • • !" said Hicks, with compan- ienable ease, looking up at her. "Been wing quite a tramp.' She did not seem troubled by the familiarity of &n address that incensed Stailiford almost to the point of taking Rieke fromhia seat, and toteing him to the other end. of the cabin. "Oh, you'ee finished my rbook," she said. " You must tell me how you like it, to- morrow." "I doubt it," said Hicks. " I'm go- ing to be sea -sick to -morrow. The captain's been shaking his head over the barometer and powwowing with the first officer. Something's up, and I guess it's a gale. Good -by ; I shant see you again for a week or so." lie nodded jocosely to Lydia, and dropped his eyes again to his book, ig- noring Staniford' s presence. The latter stood a moment breathing quick; then he controlled himself and went into his room. His corning roused Dunham who looked up from his pillow: "What time is it ? ' he asked, stupidly. Twelve," said Staniford. 41Tarl a pleasant walk ?" " If you still think," said Staniford, savagely, "that she's painfully inter- -- ested in you, you can make your mind easy. She doesn't care for either of us. "Either of us," echoed Dunham. He roused himself. "Oh, go to sleep ; go to sleep 1" cried Staniford, XV. The foreboded storm did not come so soonas had been feared, but the beauti- ful weather which had lasted so long was lost in a thickened sky and a sullen sea. The weather had changed with Staniford, too. The morning after the events last celebrated, he did, not re- spond to the glance which Lydia gave him when they met, and he hardened hi a heart to her surpriae'and shunned being alone with her. He would not admit to himself any reason for his atti- tude'and he could- not have explained to her the mystery that at first visibly grieved - her, and then seemed merely to benumb her. But the moment came when he ceased to take a certain cruel pleasure in it, and he approached her one morning on deck, where she stood holding fast to the railing where she uaually sat, and said, as if there had been no interval of estrangement be- tween them, but still coldly, "We have had our last walk for the present, Miss Blood. I hope you will grieve a little for my logs." She turned on him a look that cut him to the heart, with what he fancied its reproach and its wonder. She did not reply at once, and then she did not reply to his hinted question. The Decent Folks Bin." A lady in a note from Berwickshire, Scotland, writes : "I enclose a copy of verses writteu by my daughter. If yon th'nk them worthy of a place I shall be glad. • J. P. 13. The verses which we give below may fit in with the thoughts of some of our readers at the present time. 44 THE DECENT FOLKS SIN." John Grant was a Sootehman, eal-hearted and truet A blacksmith to trade, gond work he could de, Obliging and steady, he neer tasted drink, And he smoked but an ounce in the week, I think. Katie, his wife, had a face fresh and fair, And to John, no woman with ber could com- pare, A true loving couple, not the least of their joys %Vat that they had been blessed with two sturdy boys! 1 But in fairest of " Edens " a serpent may lurk ; And John corain' in one night from his work, Was confounded to find Kate's face bathed ip tare; He stood quite amazed, with a mind full of feare. Then strode forward, and gently lifting her head, "What ails ye, Inv lass," he anxiously said, Katielifted her apron, her wet cheeks to wipe, And olit fell tobacco, some matches, a pipe." "John, oot oor Rob's pocket a' got they the nicht, An' I'm feer'd he'll gang wrang, for he's no daen' richt," " Whesht, Katie, ma woman, nae greetin', hoot, toot, About the young scoundrel no'er pit yersel' oot. "An' besides," John went on with a smile op kis face, "That'. no sic a sin, or a deedly disgrace, Baccy's weel patronized by maist decent folks, No to gang very far—Our Minister smokes." As John uttered these words Kate sprang to her feet, "Ye ea' it nae sin ! an' ye wonder a' greet ; It's a decent folk's sin ! an' ye're gaun wi' the lave, Nor seekin' free evils yer laddie to save. " ()or minister smokes! o' that there's nae doot, Puir Bob telled me that, juist afore he ran oat, But its aff to the rnanse this nicht I will gang, Ita no be Ma faut if rna laddie gangs wrang ! ' Dumfounded was John, he had ne'er seen his wife In such an excitement in their married life, He went round the corner, and there he did wait, Till he saw Katie enter the minister's gate, Then he went to his "study" and there stopped to think. "Katie's no that far wrang, en:Lakin' leads aft to drink; 'A dacent idles sin,' she said, 'troth, that's nae joke; Smokers disna aye drink, drinkers maistly aye smoke !" "Mr. Staniford," she began. - It was the second time he had heard her pro- nounce his name; he distinctly remem- bered the first. "Well ? 'he said. "I want to speak to you about lend- ing that book to Mr. Hicks. I ought to have asked you first." "Oh, no, said Staniford. "It was yoars." "You gave it to me," she returned. "Well, then, it was yours,—to keep, to lend, to throw away." "And you didn't mind my lending it to him ?" she pursued. " 1 "— She stopped, and Staniford hesitated, WO. Then he said, "I didn't dislike your lending it; I disliked his having it. I will acknowledge that." She looked up at him u if she were going to speak, but checked herself, and glanced away. The ship was plUnging heavily, and the livid waves were rac- ing before the wind. The horizon was lit with a yellow brightness in the quar- ter to which she turned, and a pallid gleaxn defined her profile. Captain Jen- ness was walking fretfully to and fro; he glanced new at the yellow glare, and now cast his eye aloft at the shortened sail. While Staniferd stood question- ing whether she meant to say anything more, or whether, having discharged her conscience of an imagined offence, she had now reached one of her final, pre- cipitous silences, Captain Jennesa aud- denly approached them, and said. to him, "I guess you'd better go below with Miss Blood." The storm that followed had its haz- ards, but Staniford's consciousness was oonfined to its discomforts. The day same, and then the dark came, and both in due course went, and came again. Where he lay in his berth, and whirled and swung, and rose and sank, as lonely ita a planetary fragment tonging in space, he heard the noises of the life without. Amidst the straining of the ship, which was like the sharp sweep of a thunder- shower on the deck overhead, there plunged at irregular intervals the wild trample of heavily -booted feet, and now and then the voices of the crew answer- ing the shouted orders made themselvee. hollowly audible. In the cabin there was talking, and sometimes even laugh- ing- Sometimes he heard the click of knives and forks, the sardonic rattle of crockery. After the first insane feeling that somehow he must get ashore and escape from his torment, he hardened himself to it through an immense con- tempt, equally insane, for the stupidity Of the sea, its insensate uproar, its blind and ridiculous and cruel mischievous - nem Except for this delirious scorn he W5 a aurface of perfect passivity. Dunham, after a day of prostration, had risen, and had perhaps shortened his anguish by his resolution. He had since taken up his quarters on a locker in the cabin ; he looked in now and then Upon Staniford, with a cup of tea, or a suggestion of something light to eat ; 'tine he even dared to boast of the sub- limity of the ocean, Staniford stared at hirn with eyes of lack -lustre indiffer- ence, and waited for him to be gone. But he lingered to say: (To be continued.) "'A &anent folk's sin,' thst's a hard nut to eraek: Sic a tilt she was in; a' wush she was back; A'vea gude mind ta fallow her straueht up the brae, wonderin'—'what will the Minister say ?" As Katie was shown to the minister's room,. She nearly grew sick by the heavy perfume Coming in from the garden, the windows ajar, Where the minister smelted his evening cigar. With a frank smile he entered poor Katie to - greet, "How are you to -night? Mrs. Grant, ta.ke this seat,' ' Bnt the moment his eyes on Katie's face fell, He said, "What's the matter? I hope you're all well !" " We're a' weel, sir thank ye ! but 'am sair put about, This nicht John an' me, hae fairly east out," , So Kate began—no time did she waste, But plunged into her story with desperate haste i Telling what she had found in Rob% pocket that night, And she said, "A' told John, ye're no daein richt, In smokin' yersel ; and ntaitters tee mend." There Katie's heart beat as her story did end. He said, " Bacey's patroneezed by most decent folks, No to gang very far, oor minister smokes." Mr. Martin's face flusbed, hesitating he said, "Your moral is plain, and easily read ; And I think you're quite right every means ito employ, For keeping temptation away from your boy. But as for him smoking, 'tis but a boy's trick, He'll soon give it up, Whene'er he turns sick; It's true smoking often has led on to drink; But it cannot do that with abstainers, I think, John and I are abstainers ; -there is no need for alarm, And all that I smoke, can do nobody harm; A small mild cigar in the evening just serves To give rest to my brain, and to soothe all my nerves, And fits me for study, or [millions to write ; For you see, Mrs. Grant, my work is 'net With the air of a queen, Kate .rose .from her chair, And shbeea,sari,l, "Mr. Martin,,these words a' can't And she stretched forth her hand, her eyes flee[h- ing with light, " At this moment a picture appears to ma sight.

" Ensamples to Christians—to others ye live. ' Ye are his servints—Hie message ye give; As ye study His Word, or seek guidance in prayer, • De,you need a cigar for His work to prepare?'I Mr. Martin, like John, never uttered a sound, But sat with bent head, his eyes on the ground, While repenting—shamed thoughts flashed through his brain, But bis better self rase in the midst of his pan. A gentle tap then was heard at the door, It opened, and honest John stood on the floor , A look to Katie, the next at the minister's faee, Who said, as be rose, with his own ready grael— e I: A mother in Israel your wife is to be, Thank God for the german she has preached to me; Now a promise I'll make, and to it I'll stand, Will you join with me, John ?" John gave hiiu his hand. "An' that wi' ma heart, sir; the sermon's boon plain, The application's at hand, we'll no seek it in vain!' " No, John, we'll apply it, and none of the folks From this time will say that the minister smokes." I. M. lItt;011; A Hundred -Acre Farm. A young man asked my advice as to the best plan of management on a bun- dred-acre farm. He has decided to rim a dairy, and now the queation with him is whether to stock his farm with cows to its full capacity and look to the dairy alone for his income, or combine some other products with those of the dairy. I am inclined to advise the latter plan as the safeat and the one likely to prove the most profitable. I think it rarely safe or prudent to depend on a single farm product for the entire income, for when thisisths case a glutted market and consequent low prices, a severe drouth or an epidemic disease among the stock, leaves the farnopr in debt and dis- couraged. My advice would be to put (as soon as possible) fifty acers of this farm into permanent pasture. I would take great pains„ in seeding this down, to get as many kinds of grasses on it as possible, and would prepare the seed -bed very carefully and seed liberality. If bluegrass flourishes in the locality, use one bushel to the acre of the seed of this best of all pasture grasses• th re 4 , are poor spots use your manure on them for a year or two while you are getting your pasture established, so as to bring them up t� the average. I would take out all the fences faom the remaining fifty acres, unless it would be to retain a email lot or two near the barn to turn out the team and for the brood sows,and would divide the fifty acres of pasture into two enclosures. I would start with fifteen, or at most, twenty cows and about five good brood sows, and would make butter or cream,pige,pork and wheat my money crops. The fifty acres of cultivated land should be divided between oats, corn, wheat and clover, with at least one-third of it in clover. It would be necessary to keep one or two extra hands on the farm .to help about the milking, and they could cultivate the crops thorough- ly. The straw from the oats and wheat could be all utilized for bedding for the cattle and hogs, and the corn fodder and clover would furnish the rough feed for the oows and horses. The manure from the stook ought to be used either as a top -dressing on the wheat or spread on clover sod and plowed down for corn, on land to be sown in wheat the next fall; and in either case it -would give a fine chalice for wheat as well as clover,which should always be sown with the wheat. Each acre of corn ought to produce enough feed to winter two cows by the addition of a few hundred pounds of bran, whether it was put in a silo and fed as • ensilage, or the fodder run through a cutter and fed as chop, with the corn ground, cob and all,mixed with bran and fed as chop with it. I would not sell the milk from the cows, but either manufacture the butter and sell to private customers, or sell the cream and leave tee milk to make pig pork with. I should push the pigs from the day they were taken from the sow until sold, which should be about six months old. I would breed the sows for two littera a year and sell the fall litter before the spring pigs were wean- ed. It would be necessaay to buy some feed, but as a rule it will be best to buy bran rather than corn, as it is not only a better milk -producing food, but much better than corn for the pigs for the first four months, and may be fed with the corn until they are sold. It will be necessary to furnish a suitable room for storing bran so that a supply can be laid in when it is cheap. Beginning with perhaps thirty or forty pigs a -year, the number may be profitably increased to one hundred as one gains experience in handling them. Snppose you make sales of $40 worth of butter or cream from each cow per year (and I know dairymen who nearly or quite double this), and can grow from. two to four hundred bushels of wheat a year ; this added to the receipts from the pigs would give a good income, and the outlay for feed need not ordinarily exceed $100 or $200. I have heard the keeping of pigs on a dairy farm objected to on the ground that the stench from the pens would give a bad flavor to the butter. There's ne more need of stench from a pig -pen than from a cow or a horse stable. Have a house or feeding pen made with tight floors either of boards or concrete, at two levels, one a foot above the other. Have the high- est floor, under roof for a feeding floor, the lower one out -doors for a compost floor, and keep the outer floor supplied with straw, -Stalks, sawdust, or any good absorbent, and once in ten days or two weeks, or whenever it is in the right condition to handle, take the contents to the field, and furnish some fresh ab- sorbent. Managed in this way the pens will never be offensive and your pigs will make a large amount of valuable manure in a year. -- If you will bed the horses liberally and then take the eoiled bedding to the hogpen, it will help keep it in good con- dition and the hogs will soon reduce its bulk and make it in fine condition for use. It .is an advantage to the hogs to have this outer pen supplied with ma- terial forthem to work over, as it gives them exercise, and they will eat some of the straw, weeds or fodder, and it helps digestion. In the winter a bundle of bright cornfodder occasionally, or a forkful of good clover hay, will be rip- preciated by them. The haulm from the clover seed, or if yon save no clover seed, the stubble fields may be mowed and raked to furnish the needed absor- bents for ,the pig -pen.

I tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi- cians, but received no benefit until I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla A few bottles of this medicine cured nie of this troublesome complaint and com- pletely restored my health."—Jesse M. Boggs, Holman.'s Mills, N. C. "When Ayer's Sarsaparilla was rec- ommended to me for catarrh, I was in- clined to doubt its efficacy. Having tried so many remedies, with little ben- efit, I had no faith that anything would cure me. I became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion. had nearly lost the sense of smell, and my system WAS badly. deranged. I was about discouraged, when a friend urged me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and re- ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh: After taking hall a dozen bottles of this medicine, I am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disease is through the blood." — Charles H.
