He looked at me steadily for a mo- Ment or two. Isaw his countenance change Ae his eyes fell slowly to the ground. & deep sigh parted his lips.
 Good morning ? he said, an instant afterward, and strode away. He had un- dentood me.
 Trouble never comes alone. With sixty thousand dollars taken out of your fathers business, and nearly twenty thousand out of mine, we were both in peril. To reach port we must have smooth sea and favoring winds. But we had neither. There came sudden panic In financial circles; banks reduced their r line of discounts; and rates of interest 1 went up to runious figures. Trade sym 1 pathized and fell of. Weak houses be- gan to totter and Ego down, and stronger Jones to show signs of trouble. I strug- gled, and sacrificed, and held on with des- perate energy; but vainly. My boats vent under
 II knew that your father was badly cripled; and when I thought of him, 1t was with a concern made acute by my own sense of danger. One day, in pass 1 ing large auction house, I saw him step 1 forth and stand for a moment, looking 1 bewildered and agitated. I crossed over 
 Howard. Nothing wrong, I hope.
 "sRuin! That is all he answered, with forced calmness. "'Oh. nor returned. Not so bad as thatl'
 ''He drew his arm in mine, and we walked away. After little while he spoke, his voice less steady than before.
 Yes my friend ruin-and the cause you know too we'll. To save myself, I ! forced sale of my property on Walnut Street. and 1t has been struck down at little over half what would have taken for it month ago! The sum to be re- ceived will not meet my wants, and shall l be forced to suspend after all, with assetts and resources diminished by the amount lost ii-- Alir disA~G-->rlc cain 'tsAnd all this, could not help saying, 1 with bitter emphasis, comes as the result Of glass or two of wine taken in business hours 2

We parted without another word, and | hesubject was never referred to again. | Your father went through his painful or deal and came out with small remnant of property, after paying his debts. I lost everything, and have been d poor man ever since. He was moderately sue cessful in new business enterprises. At his death he left an estate worth at least a hundred thousand dollars less than it would have been if he had not tasted wine in business hours"

How TO UNITE THE ENDS OF LEAD PRE.-Whatever the size of the pipe may be, procure block of hard wood, say four or five inches long and four inches in diameter; bore hole straight through the centre, so nearly the size of the pipe that the block can be driven on the end of the pipe with light hammer. If one has a set of auger-bits, it will not be difficult to select bit of the proper size to make a water tight fit. Let the block be driven clear on the pipe, so that the end of the pipe will be flush or even with the end of the block Now place the two ends of the pipe together, and drive the block off one pipe on the other, until the joint will be in the middle of the block. If the hole in the block if made of the proper size, the block will fit so closely that the joint will be water tight; and if the ends of the pipe are dressed off true and square, the joint will be so strong that it will sustain the pressure of a head or column of water one hundred feet high. Iron pipe may be united in the same manner. Should the joint leak trife, let shingle nails be driven into the wood around the pipe, so as to press the timber firmly all around the pipe. This mode of joining pipes will be found very convenient. -I,adustriat Monthly.
