CHAPTER TX.
CLAUDE.

Some weeks now passed, unmarked by any
occurrence worthy of record.
Lucy gradually regained her tranquility of
mind, which had been so greatly disturbed by
the events related in the last chapter Claude
was permitted to be oftener with her than for
merly, privilege equally valuable to them
both. Stanley was kind and affectionate in
his manner, and Mrs. Ford kept constantly in
her own apartments, seldom showing herself,
except for short time at stated hours, when
engaged in housekeeping duties and perhaps
this circumstance contributed as greatly as
any other to Lucys satisfaction.
She was much interested in conversing with
Claude, and learning from him the particu
lars of his past life.
"Do you remember your parents at all ?"
she asked him one day, wheh he was in her
room.
"No ma'am, not at all. Uncle says they

ruin 1t forever. 80 many people reacn the
age of fifty, or sixty, or even seventy, measu.
rably free from most of the pains and in6rmi-
ties of old age, CHEEKY in heart and sound in
health, ripe in wisdom and experience, with
sympathies mellowed by age, and with reas.
enable prospects and opportunities for con-
tinued usefulness in the world for consider
able time. Let such persons be thankful, but
let them also be careful. An old constitution
is like an old bone-broken with ease and
mended with difficulty. A young tree bends
to the gale-an old one snaps and falls before
the blast. A single hard lift, an hour Of heat
ing work, an evenings exposure to rain or
damp, severe chill, an excess of food, the
unusual indulgence of an appetite or passion,
a sudden fit of anger, an improper dose of
medicine, any of these, or othersimilar things,
may cut off valuable life in an hour, and
leave the fair hopes of usefulness and enjoy
ment but shapeless wreck.
HOME INFLUENcE.-Ift the father talks
money, money" at home, he generally rears
a family in the worship of the almighty dol
lar. If he talks mainly horses, games and
races, he breeds a batch of sportsmen. If
fashion is the family altar, then the children
are offered up as victims upon that altar. IF

dren around it. My neighbor makes himself
the constant evening companion of his boys.
The result is that his boys are never found in
bad places Buff the father hears the clock
strike eleven in the clubhouse or the play
house, he need not be surprised if his boys
hear it strike twelve in the gaming room or
drinking saloon. If he puts the bottle on his
own table, he need not wonder if drunken
son staggers in, by and by, at his front door:
When the best friend that childhood and
youth ought to have, becomes their foe, the
homes become the "starting post" for moral
ruin.
How TO BORE HOLES IN GLAss.-Any
hard steel tool will cut glass with great facili-
ty when freely wet with camphor dissolved in
turpentine. A drill bow may be used, or
even the hand alone. A hole bored may be
easily enlarged by round file. The ragged
edges of glass vessels may also be easily
smoothed thus with fat file. Flat window
glass can be readily sawed with watch-spring
saw by aid of this solution. In short, the
most brittle glass can be wrought almost as
easily as brass by the use of cutting tools kept
constantly moist with camphorized oil of tur-
Ientine
KEEPING FISH FRESH WITH SUGAR.-A
method adopted in Portugal for preserving
fish consists in removing the intestines, ETC.,
and sprinkling sugar over the interior, keep.
ing the fish in horizontal position, go that
the sugar may penetrate as much as possible.
1t is said that the fish prepared in this way
can be kept completely fresh for long time,
the flavor being as perfect as if recently
caught. One tablespoon of sugar is sufficient
for a fve-pound fish.
