LIFE PATHS.
It'B a wonderful world we're In. my dear,
A wonderful world, they say,
And blest they be who may wander free
Wherever a wish might stray,
Who spreaxl their sails to the arctic gales.
Or bask In the tropic's bowers,
■While we must keep to the footpath steep
In this workaday life of ours.
For smooth is the road for the few, my dear,
And wide are the ways they roam;
Our feet are led where the million tread,
In the worn, old lanes of home.
And the years may flow for weal or woe,
And the frost may follow the flowers.
Our steps are bound to the selfsame rouna
In this workaday life of ours.
But narrow our path may be, my dear,
And simple the scenes we view,
A heart like thine and a love like mlri®
Will carry us bravely through.
With a happy song we'll trudge along.
And smile in the shine or showt. 3,
And we'll ease the par k on a brother's back
By this workaday life of ours.

PART VI.
CHAPTER XXX.—CONTINUED.
Silver was a changed man, once he
was out there and had his back on his
friends and the block-house; his cheeks
seemed to have fallen in; his voice trem
bled; never was a soul more dead in
earnest.
"Why, John, you're not afraid?"
psked Dr. Livesey.
"Doctor, I'm no coward; no, not I—
-not so inucli!" and he snapped his fin
gers. "If I was I wouldn't say it. J'.ut
I'll own up fairly I've the shakes upon
me for tJie gallows. You're a good
man and a true; I never see a better
man! And you'll not forget what I
done good, not any more than you'll
forgeit the bad, 1 know. And I step
aside —see here —and leave you and Jim
alone. And you'll put that down for
xne, too, for it's a long stretch, is that!"
So saying, he stepped back a little
way till he was out of earshot, and
there sat upon a tree-stump and
gan to whistle; spinning round now
and again upon his seat so as to com
mand a sight sometimes of me and the
doctor, and sometimes of his unruly
ruflians as they went to and fro in the
sand, between the lire—which they
were busy rekindling—and the.house,
from which they brought forth pork
and bread to make the breakfast.
"So, Jim," said the doctor, sadly,"here
you are. As you have brewed, so shall
you drink, my Iboy. Heaven knows, I
cannot find it in my heart to blame
you; but this much I will say, be it
kind or unkind; when ('apt. Smollett
was well, you dared not have gone off;
and when he was ill, and couldn't help
it, by George, it was downright cow
ardly!"
1 will own that-1 here began to weep.
"Doctor," 1 said, "you might spare me.
I liaveTjlamed myself enough; my life's
forfeited any way, and I should li ave been
deail now, if Silver hadn't stood for me;
and, doctor, believe this,l can die —and
I dare say 1 deserve it —but what I fear
is torture. If they come to torture
Lne—"
"Jim," the doctor interrupted, and
hi« voice was quite changed, "Jim, I
can't have this. Whip over, and we'll
jrun for it."
"Doctor," said I, "I passed my word."
"I know, I know,"he cried. "We
can't help that, Jim, now. I'll take it
on my shoulders, holus bolus, blame
und shame, my boy; but stay here, I
cannot help you. Jump! One jump,
and you're out, and we'll run for it like
antelopes."
"No," I replied, "you know right well
you wouldn't do the thing yourself;
neither you nor the squire, nor captain;
and no more will I. Silver trusted me; I
passed my word, and back 1 go. Rut,
doctor, you did not let me finish. If
they come to torti>i#me, I might let slip
a word where the ship is; for I got the
chip, part by luck and part by risking,
and she lies in North inlet, on the south
ern beach, and just below high water.
At half-tide she must be high and dry."
"The ship!" exclaimed the doctor.
Rapidly 1 described to him my adven
tures, and he heard me out in silence.
"There is a kind of fate in this,"he
observed when I had done. "'Every
step it's you that saves our lives; and
do you suppose by any chance we are
going to let you lose yours? That
would be a poor return, my boy. You
found out the plot; you found UenCunn
■ —the best deed t-hat ever you did, or
will do, though yo»i live to ninety. Oh,
by Jupiter! and talking of Ren Ounn,
why, this is the mischief in person.
Silver!" he cried! "Silver! I'll give you
a piece of advice," he continued, as the
cook drew near again; "don't you be
in any great hurry after that treas
ure."
"Why, sir, I do my possible, which
that ain't," said Silver. "I can only,
asking your pardon, save 1113- life and
the boy's by st-eking for that treasure,
and you may lay to that."
"Well, Silver," replied the doctor, "if
that is so, I'll go one step further; look
out for squallfi when you lind it!"
"Sir," said Silver, "as between man
and man, thutV too much and too little.
What you're alter, why you left the
block-house, why you give me that
there chart 1 don't know now, do 1?
And yet I done your bidding with my
eyes shut, and never a word of hope!
IJut no, this here's too much. If you
won't tell me what you mean plain out,
just say so, ?nd 1 leave the helm."
"No," said the doctor, musingly, "I've
no right to say more; it's not my secret,
you see, Silver, or, I give you my word,
I'd tell it to you. But I'll go as far with
you as I dare go, and a step beyond, for
I'll have my wig sorted by the captain,
or I'm mistaken! And, first, I'll give
you a bit of hope; Silver, if we both
yet alive out of this wolf-trap, I'll do
IP v best to sa»e you, short of perjury."
Silver's face was radiant. "You
couldn't say mor-*t Tm sure, sir, not
if you was my mother," he cried.
"Well, that's my first concession,"
added the doctor. "My second is a piece
of advice: Keep the boy close beside
you, and when you need help, halloo.
1 m off to seek it for you, and that itself
will show you if I speak ut random.
Good-by, Jim."
And Dr. Lively shook bands with
me through the stockade, nodded to
Silver, and sot off at a brisk pace into
the wood.
CHAPTER XXXI.
TJIE TREASURE HUNT FLINT'S
POINTER.
"Jim," said Silver, when we were
alone, "if I saved your life, you saved
mine; and I'll not forget it.l seen the
doctor waving you to run for it —with
the tail of my eye, I did; and I seen you
say no, as plain as bearing. Jim, that's
one to you. This .is the first glint of
hope 1 had since the attack failed, and
I owe it you. And now, Jim, we're
togo in fortius here "treasure-hunting,
with sealed orders, too, and I don't like
it; and you and me must stick close,
back to back like, and we'll save our
necks in spite o' fate and fortune."
Just then a man hailed us from the
fire that breakfast was ready, and we
were soon seated here and there about
the sand over biscuit and fried junk.
They had lighted a fire fit to roast an
o.\; and it was now grown so hot that
they could only approach it from the
windward, and even there not without
precaution. I.n the same wasteful spir
it, they had cooked, I suppose, three
times more than we could eat; and one
of them, with an empty laugh, threw
what was left into the fire, which blazed
and roared again over this unusual fuel.
I never in my life saw men so careless
of the morrow; hand to mouth is the
only svord that can describe their way
of doing; and what with wasted food
and sleeping sentries, though they were
bold enough for a brush and be done
with it, I could see their entire unfitness
for anythiru like a prolonged cam
paign.
Even Silver, eating away, with Capt.
Flint upon his shoulder, had not a word
of blame for their recklessness. And
this the more surprised me, for I
thought he had never shown himself
so cunning as he did the-n.
"Ay, mates," said he; "it's lucky you
have Rarbeeue to think for you with
this here head. I got what I wanted, I
did. Sure enough, they have the ship.
Where they have it, I don't know yet;
but once we hit the treasure, we'll have
to jump about and find out. And then,
mates, us that has the boats, I reckon,
has the upper hand."
Thus he kept running on, with his
mouth full of the hot bacon; thus he
restored their hope and confidence, and,
I more than suspect, repaired his own
at the same time.
"As for hostage," he continued,
"that's his last talk, I guess, with them
he loves so dear. I've got my piece o*
news, and thanky to him for that; but
it's over and done. I'll take him in a
line when we go treasure-hunting, for
we'll keep him like so much gold, in
case of accidents, you mark, and in the
meantime, once we got the ship and
treasure, both, and off to sea like jolly
companions, why, then we'll talk Air.
Hawkins over, we will, and we'll give
him his share, to be sure, for all his
kindness."
Tt was no wonder themen were in a
pood humor now. For my part, T was
horribly cast down. Should the scheme
he had now sketched prove feasible. Sil
ver, already doubly a traitor, would not
hesitate to adopt it. He had still a foot
fn either camp, and there was no doubt
he would prefer wealth and freedom
with the pira'*s to a bare escape from
hanging, which was the best he had" to
hope on our side.
Nay, arid even if things so fell out
that he wnsi forced to keep his faith
with Dr. Livesey, even, then what dan
ger lay before us! What a moment that
would be when the-suspicionsof his fol
lowers turned to certainty, and he and
I should have to fighf for dear life—
he, a cripple, and I, a boy—against five
strong and active seamen!
Add to this double apprehension, the
mystery that still hung over the be
havior of my friends; their unexplained
desertion of the stockade; their Inex
plicable cession of the chart; or, harder
still to understand, the doctor's last
warning to Silver: "Look out for
squalls when you find it;" and you will
readily believe how little taste I found
in my breakfast, and with how uneasy
a heart I set forth behind my captors
on the quest for treasure.
We made a curious figure had
anyone been, there to see us; all in
soiled sailor clothes, and all but me
armed to the teeth. Silver had two
guns slung about him, one before and
one behind—besides the great cutlass
at his waist, and a pistol in each pock
et of his square-tailed coat. To complete
his strange appearance, Capt Flint sat
perched upon his shoulder and gabbled
odds and ends of purposeless sea-talk.
I had a line about my waist, and fol
lowed obediently after the sea-cook,
who held the loose end of the rope, now
in his free hand, now between hie pow
erful teeth. For all the world I was led
like a dancing bear.
The other men were variously bur
dened, some carrying picks and shov
els —for that had been the very first
necessary they brought ashore from
the "Ilispaniola"—others laden with
pork, bread and brandy for the midday
meal. All the stores, I observed, came
from our and I could see the
truth of Silver's words the night before.
Had he not struck a bargain with the
doctor he and his mutineers, deserted
by the ship, must have been driven to
subsist on clear water, and the proceeds
of their hunting. Water would have
been little to their taste; a sailor is not
usually a good shot; and, besides all
that, when they were so short of eat
ables, it was not likely they would be
very Hush of powder.
Well, thus equipped, we all set out—

ow —and «traggTed, one after another,
to the beach, where the two gigs await
ed us. Even these bore trace of the
1 drunken folly of the pirates, one in a
broken thwart, and both in their mud
dled, unbailed condition. Both were to
be carried along- with us, for the sake of
safety; and so, with our numbers di
vided between them, we set forth upon
the bosom of the anchorage.
As we pulled over there was soma
discussion on the chart. The red cross
was, of course, far too large to be a
guide; and the terms of the note on the
back, as you will hear, admitted of
some ambiguity. They ran, the reader
may remember, thus:
"Tall tree, Spy-glasa shoulder, bearing
a point to the N. of N. N. E.
"Skeleton Island, E. S. E. and by E.
"Ten feet."
A tall tree was thus tha principal
mark. Now, right before us, the an
chorage was bounded by a plateau from
two to three hundred feet high, adjoin
ing on the north the sloping southern
shoulder of the Spy-glass, and rising
again toward the south into the rough,
cliffy eminence called the Mizzen-mast
Hill. The top of the plateau was dotted
thickly with pine trees of varying
height. Every here and there, one of a
different species rose forty or fifty feet
clear above its neighbors, and which of
these was the particular "tall tree" of
Capt. Flint could only be decided on the
spot, and by readings of the compass.
Vet, although that was the case,
every man on board the boats had
picked a favorite of his own ere we
were half-way over. Long John alone
shrugging his shoulders and bidding
them wait till they were there.
We pulled easily by Silver's direc
tions, not to weary the hands prema
turely; and, after quite a long passage,
landed at the mouth of the second
river—that which runs down a woody
cleft of the Spy-glass. Thence, bend
ing to our left, we began to ascend the
slope toward the plateau.
At the first outset, heavy, miry
ground and a matted, marsh vegeta
tion greatly delayed our progress;
but by little and little the hill began to
steepen and become stony underfoot,
and the wood to change its character
and to grow in a more open order. It
was. i ! l eed, a most pleasant portion of
the island that we were now approach
ing. A heavy-scented, bloom and many
flowering shrubs had almost taken the
place of grass. Thickets of green nut
meg trees were dotted here and there
with the red columns and the broad
shadow of the pines; and the first min
gled their spice with the aroma of the
others. The air, besides, was fresh ami
stirring, and' this, under the sheer sun
beams, was a wonderful refreshment
to our senses.
The party spread Itself abroad*, in a

way behind the rest, Silver and I fol
lowed—l tethered by mv rope, he plow
ing, with deep pants, among the slid
ing gravel. From time to time, In
deed, I had to lend him a hand, or he
must have missed his footing and fallen
backward! down the hill.
We had thus proceeded for about
half a mile, and were approaching the
brow of the plateau, when the man
upon the furthest left began to cry
aloud, as if in terror. Shout after
shout came from him, and the others
began to run in his direction.
"He can't have found the treasure,"
said old Morgan, hurrying past us
from the right, "for that's clean a-top.'"
Indeed, as we found when we also
reached the spot, it was something
very different. At the foot of a pretty
big pine, and involved in a green
creeper, which had even partly lifted
some of the smaller bones, a human
skeleton lay, with a few shreds of cloth
ing, on the ground. I believe a chill
struck for a moment to every heart.
"He was a seaman," said. George
Merry, who, bolder than the rest-, had
gone up close, and was examining the
rags of clothing. "Leastways, this is
u good sea-cloth."
"Ay, ay," said Silver, "like enough;
you wouldn't look to find a bishop here,
I reckon. But what sort of a way is
that for bones to lie? 'Tain't in
natur' '
Indeed, on second glance, it seemed
impossible to fancy that the body was
in a natural position. But for some
disarray (the work, perhaps of the
birds that had fed upon him, or of the
slow-growing creeper that had grad
ually enveloped his remains) the man
lay perfectly straight—his feet point
ing in one direction, his hands, raised
above his head like a diver's, pointing
directly in the opposite.
"I've taken a notion into my old
numskull," observed Silver. "Here's
the compass; there's the tip-top p'int
of Skeleton island, stiekin' out like a
tooth. Just take a bearing, will you,
along the line of them bones."
ft was done. The body pointed
straight in the direction of the island,
and the compass read duly E. S. E. by E.
"I thought so," cried the cook; "this
here is a p'inter. Light up there is our

lars. But by thunder, if it don't rnvke

"Ay, ay," returned Morgan, "I tniud

look my knife ashore with him."
"Speaking of knives," said another,
"why don't we find his'n lying round?
Flint warn't t he man to pick a seaman's
pocket; and the birds, I guess, would
leave it be."
"By the powers, and that's true!"
cried Silver.
"There ain't a thing left here," said
Merry, still feeling around among the
(bones, "not a copper doit nor a baccy
box. It don't look nat'ral to me."
"No, by gum, it don't," agreed Sil
ver; "not nat'ral, nor not nice, says
you. Great guns! messmate, but if
Flint was living, this would be a hot
spot for you and me. Six they were,
and six are we; and bones is what they
are now."
"I saw him dead with these here dead
lights," said Morgan. "Billy took me
in. There he laid, with penny-pieces
on his eyes."
"Dead—ay, sure enough he's dead,
and gone below," said the fellow with
the bandage; "but if ever epeerit
walked, it would be Flint's. Dear heart,
but he died bad, did Flint!"
"Ay, and that he did," observed an
other; "now he raged, and now he hol
ier for the rum, and now he sung.
'Fifteen Men' were his only song,
mates; and I tell you true, I never right
ly liked to hear it since. It was main
hot, and the windy was o,pen, and I
hear that old song comin' out as clear
as clear—and the death-haul on the
man already."
"Come, come," said Silver, "stow this
talk. He's dead, and he don't walk, that
I know; leastways, he won't walk by
day, and you may lay to that. Care
killed the cat. Fetch ahead for the
doufoloons."
We started, certainly; but in spite of
the hot sun and the staring daylight,
the pirates no longer ran separate
and shouting through the woods, bu*
kept side by side, and spoke with bated
breath. The terror of the dead buc
caneer had fallen on their spirits.

HIS FRENCH MAID.
Albert Get» Her Into n Serious Ron
uilli the llouHcglrl.
A youngster who is the only son of in
dulgent parents living in Avondale has
a French maid, whose business it is to
talk to him in French at all times. In
fact, she has to, as her knowledge is lim
ited when it comes to speaking English.
The boy, though only seven, is as full
of mischief as a young calf and he
knows enough to know that he can fool
the maid in more ways than one. He is
something of a practical joker, too.
At lunchtime one day the inaid was
up a stump in regard to asking for salt.
She needed it in her soup, and to the
housegirl she couldn't make her wants
known. Turning to Alb&rt. Sb« said:
"Le sel, Albair, le sel."
Turning to the housemaid Albert
said in English: "Oh, the old parley
voo wants some sugar. Give it to her."
Sh_ got the sugar in one of the silver
boxes or dredges used for that condi
ment and dredged her soup in the ap
proved French way and with decided
disregard for the quantity she was
using. Then when she tasted the
mavvky mess she broke out in a French
tirade and wanted to whip the house
girl. That is, it sounded like that, with
her "Sacres" and "Mon Dieus."
"Oh, but she's cussing you," said Al
bert to the housegirl. "I'd tell mamma.
I wouldn't let any old foreigner talk
that way to me."
"What's she saying?"
"Oh, 'dam' and other cuss words that
are a heap worse."
Then the housegirl got back good
and strong and told her she'd slap her
in the mouth, and Albert had to do the
interpreting. Of course he got things
a little worse than they really were and
poured oil on the flames. Both went to
his mother, but when Albert explained
his part in the row he was the one who
got the scolding.—Cincinnati Commer
cial Tribune.
Wrrn'g Vindication.
When Sir Christopher W'ren was
building ttie town hall of Windsor, n
fidgety meinvber of the corporation—so
the story goes—insisted that the roof
rtquired further support, and desired
the architect to add more pillars. In
vain did Sir Christopher assure him
that the danger was imaginary—he
knew better. The alarm spread, and
the great architect was worried into
adding the desiTed columns. Years
passed, and in later times, when archi
tect and patron were dead, cleaning
operations in the roof revealed the fact
that the supposed additional supports
did not touch the roof by two inches,
though this was not perceptible to any
one below. By this ingenious expedient
did Sir Christopher pacify his critics,
while vindicating his own architectural
skill fo future generations.—Leisure

CROPS IN ORCHARDS.
Don't I'lnnt Any That Mature Their
Seed* llurioK the Growiu*.
Seaaon of the Trees.
What crop can we grow in a young
orchard without injury to the trees?
was asked in an exchange and was an
swered thus by A. B. Wood: If you
have plenty of other ground on which
to grow cultivated crops, don't grow
anything but your trees and care for
them just the same as though they
were a corn crop instead. Many are
not so situated that they can devote
the entire land to trees, but must grow
something to pay for the use of the
ground till the trees yield fruit. Then
comes the question again: What can
I grow, then, which will not be in
jurious to growth of my trees? In
one-lialf of my first peach orchard I
set strawberries the first year, and on
the other half 1 grew beans and sweet
corn. The trees on the first half near
ly died, though I cultivated and fer
tilized thoroughly, using unleaclied
ashes and rotted stable manure lib
erally; the other half grew nearly
double the size of the former in the
first two years, besides the trees were
much healthier.
This taught me not to grow any
crop which matured its seed during
the growing season of the trees. See
ing my mistake, though too late, I im
mediately plowed under the berry
vines and devoted the ground entirely
tothetrecs. The result was surprising,
for the trees seemed to take new life
and made more growth the next sea
son than in both the former ones,
though they have never been able to
catch up with those where the beans
and corn grew.
PRESERVING EGGS.
Tbf Sulphur Proccnn llerp Dmcrlbrd
IIa » It ecu Practiced with Coo-
Hldrrablr SucceMN.
Take a common starch box with a
sliding lid. Put the eggs in the box.
and upon an oyster shell or other suit
able substance place a teaspoonful of
sulphur. Set fire to the sulphur, and
when the fumes begin to rise briskly
shut up the lid, make the box tight,
and do not disturb it for half an hour.
Now take out the eggs, pack in oats,
and the job is done. If the oats or pack
ing material be treated to the same
process it will l>e all the better. If a
barrelful is to be preserved, place the
eggs in a tigiit barrel two-tbirds full,
with no packing whatever. Fire a
pound of sulphur upon a suitable sub
stance on top of the eggs in the vacant
space over them, shut up tightly, let
stand an hour and then take out the
eggs. As the gas is much
air it will sink to the bottom, or rather
(ill up the barrel with the fumes. In
another barrel or box place some oats,
and treat in the same way. Now pack
the eggs in head up the barrel,
and turn the barrel every day to pre
vent falling of the yolks, using each
end alternately, and they will keep a
year, or, according to the eflioiency of
the operation, a shorter or longer
time.
It will be seen by the above that the
process is a dry and neat one, and very
inexpensive, sulphur being' a very
cheap article. The process was sold
several years ago by certain parties as
"Ozone," but is an old one, and the par
ties were exposed, not that the process
was a fraud, but because they sold a
pound of sulphur as ozone for two dol
lars.—Poultry Keeper.
