4 You had a breezy time of it, Wolf,'
said the MajOr.
Rather exciting, sir.'
1Vhere was Colonel Witupleton eli
day ? I could not find him.'
He was at Ucayga, looking up the
money to pay a uote which 3ame due
yesterday.'
Precisely so; he came over to see
me about it in the morning. He was
in a treinenduous hurry, and much' exs
18;heut the robbery,' added the
major.
He WA4 excited about something
else when I saw him.'
You don't mean—'
0, no, inn' I promptly interposed,
'when 1: saw that lie suppesed the mag-
nate of Centreport Ilan been drinkiug
again. Nothing of that kind.'
Y011 understand me. Well, I am
glad that he has uot fallen back. Your
remark startled me, Wolf.'
am afraid the Colonel is not as
kindly disposed to you as formerly.'
Why, what's the matter'?' demand-
ed the Major, evidently alarmed at my
suggestion.
'I think there is a misunderstanding.
He came over to see you yesterday
morning, and he thought you were not
inclined. to assist him in the emergen-
cy.'
What an idea ! I intended that his
note should be paid even if my own was
not, though I hurried home to attend
to the payment of it. This is very
strange,' mused the mai o. 'Iwas notr
aware that I sa.ld or dal anything that
could give offenee to him.'
am confident there has been a
mistake; but I do not know that I
ought to repeat anything he said to me.'
In the .interest of peace and friend-
ship you may do so, Wolf. What did
he say?' asked the major, anxiously.
'He said. that when he informed you
he had a note of twenty thousand dol-
lars to pay, and that the bank had been
robbed, instead of helping him out,
you said you had a note to pay your-
self,'
I certainly did tell him that 1 hada
lenge stun to pay; but I also told Ilim
that I would see what could be done. -
1 invited him to breakfast with mnand
told him I would go and see the cash-
ier of the bank. 1 nid not suppose he
had any doubt of my willingness to
help him ; and the only question with
Inc wes how it was to be done. He was
in a desperate hurry and could nor
wait a minute. The steamer was com-
ing over after him, before she went up
the lake in pursuit of the robber. I
told him then that I would see him on
the wharf in ten or fifteen minutes, and
hastened to find the cashier. He was
not at home ; but I soon found bim and
learned that the funds in our bank
were not sufficient to pay both notes.
I immediately decide01 to raise the
amount needed. to pay the colonel's
note, in Ucayga. I sent an order to
Lewis Holgate to get up steam on the
dummy, and then went as fast as I
could walk to the wharf. The steam-
er was just leaving the pier when I
came in sight.'
The colonel waited for you till the
time expired,' I added.
was not live minutes behind time.
The absence of the cashier had detain -
me a little, bat I could not help in
However, I supposed the colonel would
return before eleven o'clock to raise the
money to pay his note.'
Hewes very much excited about it.'
I am really very sbrry. Perhaps I
did not speak as explicitly as I ought
to have done; but it never occurred to
Ino that hit would misunderstand my
motives. The dummy ran down to Hi -
tics as a special express to convey me.
I raised the money, and returned by the
ten o'clock train. The steamer had
wine back from up the lake; but I could
not find Colond Wimpleton. In the
afternoon I heard that he had gone to
Ucayga, end I was on the look -out for
him till the last train arrived. The
money 'has been in our bank since ele-
ven o'clock yesterday, and I have a
cheque for the amount in. my pocket
now.'
The colonel was rather too hasty in
bis conclusions. The steamer return-
ed to Middleport at ten and he took
the train for Ucayga, where he raised
the money and paid the note himself.'

the subject,' added the major, with
much anxiety. must go over and
see him.'
'Inn afraid your meeting will not be
a pleasant one.'
I will state the facts just as they
are, and I hope he will Ned thaNhere

coming in, and theferry steamer will
start in a few minutes,' ,
We walked down to the wharf toge-
ther, My two beats had just been lan-
ded from the steamer, in charge of ono
of Captain Portman's men. They were
very tractable, and were the centre of
attraction on the wharf. They were
willing to shake hands with everybody,
and seemed to be enjoying themselves
very much.I took charge of one of
them, while the man retained the
other, and we led them towards my fa-

DEAR AND FORBEAR ;
018,
The YOUNG SKIPPER of LAKE UOAYOA
BY OLIVER OPTIC,
Author of " YOUNG Aurae:cis asente,"
CHAPTER XXII.—(Cuntinuedn
The colonel was anxious to learn the
the particulars of the capture of the
robbers, min Waddle and I releted the
adventures of the day. I delivered to
him the pankage of money found in
Nick's trunk, which had been intrusted
to me by the constable.
You have had a stirring time of it,'
said Colonel Wimpletou, when we had
finished. I have been in Ucayga, all
day, and did not know what was going
en. I had not been in the house an
hour when you came. I had consider-
able difficulty in lensing the money to
pay my note.'
Have yon seen Major Toppleton ?'
I aelted, though it required 801110 cour-
age to ask the question, fur I dreaded
another explosion.
• Seen Lieu! No !' replied Colonel
Wimpleton, rising hastily from his chair,
and. begiuning te unia.ch up and down
the. Library. • I have heard from him,
though. He was at Ucayga this morn-
niae, raising money, to prevent me, I
firmly believe, from getting what I
wanted. There was almost a panic in
money matters at Ucayga today. Top-
pleton got all he wanted, and came
down by the ten o'clock train, and every-
thing was short by the time 1. arrived.
But I raisecl the mouey, and paid. my
note. He , came over to see me, after
his return, I learn—to apologize, I sup-
pose, for his shabby conduct. He want-
ed to see me very much, I am told.'
• Perhaps he came over to bring you
the money you wanted,' I suggested,
Nay mildly.
Not he I' sneered the colonel, deter-
mined to put the worst possible con-
struction on the actions of his former
After a longer experience of human
life than I had at that time, I am satis-
fied that it is always the safest way to
credit other pemne, especially friends,
with Rod intentions.
Toppleton is not the man I took him
for,' added the eolonel, after pacing the
room for some time in silence. As
soon as practicable Wolf, our boat must
go through from Iiitaca to Ucayga.'
Don't do that, father,' interposed
Waddle.
It shall be done, Waddie. We can
take all the through travel on the lake,
and I shall no longer put money into
Toppleton's pocket.'
But, father, you judge Major Top-
pleton too harshly.'
'No, I don't. 'When I go to a friend
in such an emergency as that of this
morning, I do not like to have make
ex.euses,, and put me off.'
We must bear and forbear, at least
until we know what others mean.'
So Wolf says; but I don't want to
hear any such stuff,' added the mag-
nate, angrily.
It was usless to say anything more,
and Waddle had the good eense to hold
his peace. We left the room together,
and we could not separate for the night
till we had thoroughly considered: the
peril nis situation.
I think myself it was rather shabby
of the major to leave my father in the
lurch, after what had happened,' staid
Waddie.
So it was, if he did leave him in the
lurch; but we must hear the other side
of the story. It appears that Major
Toppleton came over to see your father
this forenoon, after he had been to
Ilcayga to rano money.'
my father is rather hasty in his
conclusioes sometimes, and I hope the
majon will be able to explain his con-
duct.'
It is doubtful whether he obtains an
Opportunity to explain,' I added. .
We must be peacemakem
Wolf.'
We can't do mach in an affair of
this kind. 1 think if your father hai
waited a little longer this morning, in-
stead of leaving Middleport without see-
ing thema,jor, all would have been well.'
'Let us hope for the best, Wolf; and
in the 111.01011 time don't say a word
about breaking the union to any one,'
1 promiso to keep still, and we sopa-
rated.

colonel, dourly. You may notify the
Railroad Company that the present ar-
rangement will be discontinued, say
from the first of next month.'
Of course I shall do as I am ;direct-
ed, but I am quite sure there is a
understanding between you and ehe
major.'
I don't care to argue the matter.
What are you going to do with these
be?lishiagoing' W°1f?e to keep them as pets.'
At this moment the 0118 Whi011 had
frightened Miss Dornwood stood up,
and expressed a desire to shake hands
with Colonel Wimpleton,
They are perfectl:, harmless, sir,'
said I, seeing that the great man was
in do ubt.
Won't they bite?'
'No, sir.'
Thus assured the colonel took the of -
foxed paw of the bear, and in a few mo-
ments they were excellent friends, for
Bruin's ways were verv winning, Wad -
die was playing with tho other, and
both my visitors were very much inter-
ested in the animals. While they were
occupied in this manner, Major Top-
pleton presented himself in the yard.
'Good morning, colonel,' said the
major.
Good morning,' replied the magnate
of Centrepoi t, very stiffly.
• I heard you were here,nsolonel, and
I came up to see you. I looked up for
you all day yesterday, and have been
looking for you all the morning.'
Sorry you gave yourself so much
trouble.'
I saw that Major Toppleton was net -
tied at the coldness of his reception,
and I was afraid he would be angry.
As he approached the bears, both of
them rose and offered. their accustomed
greeting. The major shook hands with
both of them, for he had already made
their acquaintance on the wharf.
When I went duwn to the wharf
yesterday, your steamer had been gone
only a few moments,' continued the
magnate of Middleport. I was eorry
hat I miss1/4 d you.'
'It didn't make any differeneen said
the colonel. You will attend to the
natter of -which I spoke to you, Wolf,'
le added, edging off towards the gate.
' Perhaps it didn't make any differ-
ence to you, but it did tome,' continued
the major. 'I'm afraid I did not, in
the excitement of the mement, express
nyself as clearly as I should have
done.'
As clearly as •Wee necessary. I un-
lerstood you tterfeetlyn replied the col-
pnel, still edging towards the gate.
Then you understood that I intend-
ed to raise the money you wanted.'
No, I did not. You told me you
had a note to pay yourself, and that
was as 111Ueh as to say you could do
nothing for me.'
There was, indeed, a mistake then;
and 1 am sorry that I did not express
myself more clearly.'
I paid my note, and nothing more
need be said about the matter,' growled
Colonel Wimpleton.
My dear colonel—'
'Don't "dear" me after this.'
I trembled for the major wheu this
rude remark was uttered, for his tem.
per was not always to be depended up-
on, and certainly the provocation was
very strong. I never saw a better op-
portunity to get up a quarrel, and no-
thing but a little forbearance on the
part of the only one of the two who
seemed to be capable of exercising this
virtue could ward off the calamity. The
colonel was unreasonable; but the ma-
jor felt that he had not plainly stated
his intentions: As usual, there was
blame On both sides.
CHAPTER XXIV. '
Coameze WimpeemoN, there has been a
misunderstanding between us,' said the
major, with dignity. I feel that I am
not without blame.'
I don't demand any apology,' added
the colonel.
I wish to make an explanation. If
after that you are not satisfied., I will
not complain.'
I don't ask any explanation.'
' But I desire to make one, if you will
do me the favor to hear it.' continued
Major Toppleton, taking from his pock-
et the cheque he had done the day be-
fore, and handing it to the colonel.
' It is too late,' said the latter, as he
glanced at the cheque.
It was written yesterday at eleven
o'clock, and the money was in the bank
to cash it. If I failed to say yesterday
morning that your note should be paid
whether mine was or not, I failed to
say all that I felt and all that I iatend•
You didn't say that,' replied the
colonel, relaxing the frown upon his
brow a little. Y011 simply told nie
you had it note to pay, bat would see
what you could do.'

I wanted to give three cheers, and I
should have done so, if Iliad not wieh-

his resentment:, As it ages, I vented

As they stepped forward to shake
hands, they came near the two bears.
Both ot' the bruins immediately abaft -
dolled their play, stood up, and each
extended a paw to the magnate near
hine. The two gentlemen laughed
heartily as they saw the bears; but
they shook hands with each other, and
then with their limnble imitators.
This suggests some names for your
nets, Wolf,' said Waddie, laughing.
I thought of that before. This is
Bear,' I replied, putting my haud on
the head of my fit st acquaintance; and
this is Forbeern I added, taking the
other by tbe paw.
Bear and Forbear,' said Colonel
Wimpleton. You have preached that
sermon to me once. Wolf,' but I was
not in the humor to hear it. I appre-
ciate the two bears better now.'
And you will bear with me `next
time I make a blunder, and seem to
stand in a doubtful rositionn added
Major Toppleton.
Most assuredly I will if you forbear
as you (lid to -day, when I made rude
and ungentlemanly speeches to you.'
I think those two bears will make a
team which will drag any man through
the world with peace aud comfort,' I
added.
You are right Wolf. I must have
those two bears,' added the Colonel.
Well, sir, my mother and sisters
are afraid of them. and I don't know as
1 shallsbe eti* to keen them hero.'
'1 meant bear aud forbear,' laughed
the colonel.
Those are the names of these two
two bears::
Well, r should be very happy to
have the live bears, for whenever I see
them, they will remied: me of the les-
son I have learned to -day.'
'You have a nice little place for them
over hi your grounds: and I suppose I
can see them whenever I wish.'
Certainly you can.'
If they should get loose when I am
away they would frighten the whole
neighborhood, for we have no man to
see to them,' I addsd.
My mother and my sisters would be
delighted to get rid ol them ; and Iwas
afraid they might do mischief iu my
absence. Besides, there was such a
striking fitness in presenting them to
the magnate of Centreport under the
circumstances that I could not have
resisted the inclination.
It was a fortunate circumstance that
the explanation and reconciliation had
taken place in the presence of the bears
for the association would always be re-
membered by the colenel.
I presented the bears to him.
The two magnates departed together,
and I was to remove Bear and. Forbear
to their new home.
I didn't know my father was com-
ing hese when we erossed the lake,'
land Waddie. I came to see you
about another matter.'
What's that?'
Waddie blushed.
• I thought we ought to go down to
Roman, and call upon Miss Dornwoodn
said he, with some hesitation.
Of course you are moved in this
matter by a sense of duty,' I laughingly
relANieodi
' wholly, Wolf; but I should like
to know how she is after her manse.'
No doubt you Would.'
You may laugh at me if you like,
Wolf; but 1 think Miss Dornwood is 10
very pretty girl.'
And a very good gird too, Waddle,
which is more and better.'
I'm going down to R011ftrai and wish
you would go with me.'

We gather from the Bufftdo Advertis-
er that Canada is now favored with the
presence of two of the most notorious
confidence men of that city. These
mon arentoted for their impudent confi-
dence games on uesuspecting persons.
It is well to caution the public against
them. Buffalo has the honor, we be-
lieve, of bein r, the home of these two
worthies. McGlowan, McGloin, or
Quin (the latter we believe is his real
name is a notorious confideuce man,
though, beion well known and well
watched by the police he has not dared
to do any work" in Buffalo lately.
He was last week arrested here for an
assault upon a woman and fined $10.
Hoffman is an old pal of Quin's, and
also a profesional confidence man. He
has served a year in the Erie Co. Peni-
tentiary for it larceny, and was fined
$500 once for swindling a Dean out of
a $100 bill at some rascally gambling
operation. A deseription of each of
them is among the "archives" at po-
lice Headquarters. They will doubt-
less now be put in a way of doing the
Dominion some service.

Mrs. 1Vm. B. A;nor, at a recut ball

CLF.AN SEED.—As a rule, those farm-
ers who are ihe latest careftil iu clean-
ing their seed grains, and the most
thorough in their cultivation have the
fewest weeds to contend with ; and such
are the most fully compensated in the
end for their pains. One of the :nest
neelific causes of the epreed of weeds is
sowing directly from the thinehing ma -
(line, for holver well the ihreehing
maches clean the grain for market pun
Pnoses—ad tbe be'tter class of them do
it admiralb,----still their is no powe, ma-
chine that will clean seed in so thor-
ough a manner as to fit it for sowing.
This however, may be accomplished by
careful cleaning by the more modern
fans, having sieves adapted to the vari-
ous sizes and shapes of seeds, and inn
fectly coutrolled by the blasts given.
With their nee we have often secured
a large advance over the ordinary mar-
ket price, on atcoont of the seed being
perfectly clean, Among the most diffi-
enit to separate from grain are cockle
and chess; and to do so thoroughly, it
is necessary to haye proper sieves for
separating these from the gond grain
since the specific gravity of those seeds
is very nearly that of barley, rye and
wheat. In the case of chess the pecu-
liar form of the seed being long, like
wheat and rye—renders it especially
difficult of separation. But with the
modern fans, but little difficulty will be
experienced in their separation, and the
value of the seed will be he thereby
much enhanced.
PERMANENT WIIITEWASH.—With the
return of spring comes the usual enqui-
ries for a good whitewash. We have
only to repeat the followiug directions
given before, as follows e—Take, half a
bushel of unslacked lime, slack it with
boiling water, covering it during the
process to keep in the steam ; strain
the liquid through a fine sive or strain-
er. end add to it it peck of salt previ-
ous:y well dissolved in water ; three
po aids of greund rice, boiled to a thin
paste, and stirred in boiling het water ;
half a pound of Spanish whiting, and a
pound of clean glue which has previous-
ly been dissolved by soaking it first, and
then hanging over a slow file in a small
kettle inside a large one filled with
water ; add five gallons of hot water to
the mixture, stir it well and let it stand
a few days covered from the dirt. It
should be pnt on gene hot; for the
purpose it can be kept in a kettle on a
furnace. A. pint of this mixture will
cover tt, yard square of a house if appli-
ed with a large paint brush.

A WARNING.—A man drew a note
promising to pay $100. He used the
printed form and did not close up the
bla,ult devoted to dollars, and after pee-
ing it as a negotiable paper somebody
inserted "and fifty" after the one huu-
dred and b ;fore the word dollars. The
note, thus altered, got into the hands
of an innocent party, who presented it
to the drawer, and the Supreme Court
decided that the maker of the note was
liable for its face, because through neg-
ligence he did eot draw a line between
the written word. and 1 dollars.' An v
testimony that the drawer might offer
to establish the fact that he gave the
note for $i0(' must go for nothing, as
"there was nothing on the face of the
note to show that it had been altered."
Evidence of alteration on the face of
Ole note would nave changed the case.

How TO PULL TEBT11.-1 peculiar
dental operation has just conte tinder
our observation. A certain citizen Be-
ing in the south portion of the town
had an upper tooth which was loose
and troublesome, so he resolved to ex-
tract it by fastening a string to it, but
after a trial, finding the operation pain-
ful, he hadn't the grit to grin and bear
it. He thought if the tooth could be
extracted by some sudden mode; .the
pain -would be but transient ; and after
mature deliberation he hit upou 'an in., .
genious plan to jerkit out in a jiffy.
Fastening a heavy fiat -iron to the other
end of the cord attached to his tooth,
then shutting,. both his eyes he let the
iron " drap," which' descended plump
(111 the centre of his pet corn. After
hoppine about the room first on one
foot, then on the other, groaning in an-
guish of spirit and reciting choice
passages from profane history -
he finally calmed down sufficient -r
ly to hurl the iron over the fence and,
swathe his sore toe in camphor and
cotton. But he pulled the tooth, and,
with it a chunk of gime the size of a
beefsteak. &mol the
