"Your father and I went to school to- gether from the time we were seven years old until we graduated at Harvard. For all his htillient abilities I felt sorry for your father. Ile was continually in trouble with his father. His mother was an invalid, So Orland bid entire charge of the boy, and the two were always at war, "They were just alike, both hot-headed and imperious, notwithstanding he was so bright in other respects your father didn't know how to get along with his father. Now, every boy ought to know how to man- age his father. Eb, Lawrence. Mr. Gifford looked at his son roguishly. The youug man blushed under his father's glance, laughed, and said, "Yes, sir." Whereupon the lawyer laughed heiirtily. "You know how to menage your father! I have observed that. Well, well: I'll tell you why I say so, Armajo. I have a very successful practice, but it is a sort of slav- ery. Now a merchant has organized inter- ests. If he is away, affairs still proceed and his profits roll in. I was determined that Lawrence should become a business man, and I told him so. But he himself, mean- while, had determined to follow after me, and become a lawyer." Mr. Gifford sat back and looked at his son. It was evident he felt pleased even by this contrary choice. "Mark what Lawrence did, Arms., my boy. No opposition. Oh no! 'Very well, father, if that's what you want, try it,' he says, and goes into commercial college with a will. They tell me hie record there is excellent. Meantime, what are his tactics? He leaves college early in the afternoon every day, and comes to my office. First he takes our account -books in hand, and straightens them out. That looks Innocent and is a welcome aid. Than, as I have some new corporation clients, am way behind in my work and short of good help, he begins to look after the correspondence and indexes the dockets. " Preeently he pries into some of my .briefs. He questions me about the points. He begins to look up the references. lie leaves lista of cues and precedents on my desk. He makes several audacious, blun- dering, well -meant suggestions. One or two of them display geniur. "In short, without ever a word of con- troversy he converts me, and I believe I'm ready to say that when Lawrence leaves Farwell's College if he wishes to come into my office he may, and I'll prepare him to become partner." " Fathet, you dou't mean it !" cried Law- rence, springing up joyously. "I do, my 1109, said the father. He look- ed at Lawrence, smiling, a moment. Then the two shook bands fervently across the table. "Thank you, father. It's just what I wanted," said Lawrence. The lawyer made no reply. His hark eyes were beaming af- fectionately. Arrnajo leaned back with a remorseful sob in hie throat, Had be him- self -not his father -been the one who was selfishly wilful? After a little Mr. Gifford went on ; "When your father married, the climax was capped, Arma. That offended his mother. She did not like the bride, al- though 'Gene had picked out a lady of great ibeaaty and culture. She had extraordicary good sense and poise. She would have trans- formed him in time. But she died. Ern gene went West, and never saw his father again until he came back to rescue him. But you know all about that." No, I do not. Tell me about it," re- joined Armajo. "Orland failed in business some ten years ago. His wife had died and he was alone and old, but still a hale and vigorous man. I wrote to Leadville, to your father. He came on, paid off the debts, and started his father again with fifty thousand dollars capital. It was a princely gift. But your grandfather lost it all in Wall street with- in six months. Then Eugene pensioned him. Gave him a certain sum quarterly. Orland went to the Bermuda Islands a year afterward to spend the winter, and died there." Arrnajo was intensely interested in these items of family history, few of whioh he had ever heard before, but when they went up -stairs to the library, conversation drifted to general topics. At nine o'clock the youth arose to go. " Remember me cordially to your father when you write," said the lawyer -as he held the lad's hand in parting, "and lay to him that if I can do anything for his boy while•in New York, I shall with pleasure. Armajo murmured his thanks, and hur- ridly withdrew. He could, not• admit that he was on terms with his father which forbade the present delivery of this kind message. As he walked through Centre! Park on his way down to Seventy-second street, he could not breve smarted more had he been whipped with rode. How he wished that he bad followed Lawrence Gifford's consider- ate course! Arinajo stopped jupon a bridge, over an arm of the lake, and stood long above the moonlit waters. • Never had his own faults of temper, pride and self-conceit been made so clear. He wrung his hands in an agony of regret and shame, For the first time he felt the need of some- thing outside himself, higher and better than hie own frail powers, to help and to reform. He looked toward the sky and a noble aspiration for a purer life, for self - command, for charity and justice in all dealings, possessed his soul and eased his aching heart. Reaching his room, where the gas was dimly burning, he saw a letter lying on the dresser, bearing the Colorado postmark. It was not directed in his father's hand- writing!

Lately one of his friends, while in the Her- ald sanctum, remsrked, "Prendergast is on his feet again and as sound as a bell." Inquiry naturally followed as to what had produced this remarkable re- sult, and we were informed that his recov- ery was solely due to the use of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. The Herald had published the particulars of many re- markable cures by the use of this remedy, and while not by any means sceptical, felt a strong desire to verify a case in our locality, and accordingly drove to Mr.Prendergast's. On reaching the house it was ascertained that Mr. Prendergast was some distance away in the field pleading a fence. Thither the scribe wended his way, meeting with cordial welcome andan invitation to uome back to the house to dinner. After dinner we urged him to tell about the remarkable change that had taken place in his condition. At first he was inclined to put us off, saying that he hated to think of the old days of agony and misery. However at last he told us all he had undergone, him story bearing out what has been said concerning his con- dition. After the doctor. had given him up, his wife, hoping against hope, had urged him to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He scouted the idea at first, saying that these things were all humbugs. At last, more to please hie wife than anything else, he sent to Com- ber for some of the Pink Pills. He had not taken them many days when he found they were giving him relief. The pain lessened, hie appetite began to return,and so did hope and confidence. He procured another sup- ply and found himself growing daily strong . - er. He felt thret he could walk theough the fields 'without the fear of being stricken down by a sudden Pain. Later he resumed work on his farm and found to his amaze- ment that he could do a hard day's work without fatigue. In a word that he had completely recovered. He had taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at the outset without hope of benefit, and _ merely to please' his wife • now he finds them a life boat and au ark of safety.

THE JOYOUS RESULT OF TAKING TIMELY ADVICE. The story of Mr. Wm. Prendergast's Suffer- ing and Restoration -Given up by Doctors and believed to be dying be finally recovers perfect health. From the Comber Herald. Mr. Wm. Prendergast, of the township of Rocheeter, a former resident of this village, is known to almost all in this section, and is warmly esteerried by all his acquaintances. It is well known that Mr. Prendergast went through a terrible siege of suffering, and that few of his friends had any hope of his recovery. Mr. Prendergast's trouble was chronic eeteritis, (intestinal inflamma- tion) and what he Euffered at times can scarcely be described. Hundreds of dollars were spent in medical treatment but with- out wadi. Sedatives, stimulants, tonics an.d external applications, etc., were succes- sively tried with little or no result. Brief temporary relief might ensue ; it was always very brief,when the dreed tormentor returned to smite him with fresh agony. In this condition Mr. Prendergast continued until last summer, when the physician frankly told him that hie case was incurable. The news came as a terrible shock to his wife and children. Long before this, after a manful struggle, he bad been forced to give up work on his farm, but there had always been hopes of hie recovery to buoy up hie family and friends, But the state- ment that his case was considered incurable was like a stroke of impending doom, and his friends constantly dreaded to hear that he was no more. Such was the condition of affairs at the close of last summer,end a little later it was understood that Mr. Prendergast was get - For Horses and Cattle Use Dick's Blood Purifier Orchard and Garden Notes. Plow the garden as soon as possible, that it may be frozen after plowing. This will make it easier to cultivate 'during the whole season. -If radishes do not do well in your gar- den try putting a' coat of creek sand on a bed and mixing it thoroughly with the same bulk of rotted stable manure. Coal ashes will answer the same purpose as sand. Lettuce may be sown at any time, as it will grow it sown in the fall. When well started thin out the plants to six inches apart end they will then cover the ground, and be much better than if allowed to grow thickly. Peas may be sown very early as it does not hurt them if the ground is frozen after they are planted. If sown early they will get such a good start that they will not get caught by the drfy weather of early summer. -All the brush, dead weeds and trash should be raked 'off the orchard and put in heaps and burned, as piles of such rubbieh serve as harbors;for mice, moles and insects to breed in; besides they look badly if not disposed of, If the raspberry plants were not cleaned up last fall and all the dead canes cut away, they should be attended to at once. It pays to put a good thick coat of straw around the plants in the, raspberry patch. Naturally they grow in the woods and along fences where the roots are protected from the di- rect rays of the son, and if they are mulch- ed in this manner they will bear much bet- ter. If this is not done they should be very thoroughly cultivated. Currant bushes should be so pruned that the i will grow into an open bush,as they are inclined to grow up in a thick clump. This fruit is just beginning to attract attention as a profitable one to grow for market purposes and he who plants a liberal plot to them will not lose anything by it.

A Druggist Experiences 14 Years Steady Increase in the- Sale of Royal Crown Remedy. ST. MARYS, April 1881. Some three years ago Isaac Williams' Royal Crown Remedy was introduced to me for sale ; since then it has hada steady increasing sale. It seems to rive the best of sarisfaction wherever used. S. FRAmon, Chemist. Indieestion, Dyspepsia and Sour Stomach are caused by the food fermenting. The result of fer- mentation on all organtie matter must be acid. This decompoeee the food (which should be digested) and from decomposition evolves gases that produce pressure on the nerves, disorganizing the system and produc- ing various symptoms of disease. The "Curative Fluid" purifies the stomach, promotes digestion and aasknIlation of food, thereby creating a healthy current of blood.
