HE BELLE OF THE " CHESTER BELL."
" Yes. sir, in the old hulk that lies
rotting theie I've sailed many a 1od*>
year. She n*ed to make t-p!eodid runs
tetween Bremen aD<i here. A grand
olipper j-hd was, a regular ooan beauty
in them days. Her name was the
Chester Bell, and she rode the *av. h
just like a nutshell, f-ir Her capt&inV

you've heard of him. I know sailers,
and pretty good seaman, too, that
change color at th? very mention ot
that mau'ri name. He was a tiger, sir.
a human hyeia, a bloodttiiisry, bulty
ing wretch, without having even the
saving clause of a bad temper. Why,
he conld kill a man in cold blood tho
same as y^n'd relish a good breakfast,
sir.

be turned into skulking hounds the

little girl for a wife, strange to say?

she'd go to sea with bim. If anybody
could keep him in order it was
her ; but eve 1 she couldn't prevent his
cruelty to the men. "With first-rate
fieamen he was tyrannical, but, great

to him and knock him in the

of two and five, and sometimes t. n and

girls among tbem, too.
" The particular passage of which I'm
going to speak, however, was in the
year '50?a great year for clippers that
was. I was busy tarring some ropes
when a family came aboard that made
us all look alive. First, ihete was the

meet in a hundred years. Then came
the sone'and daughters and grandchildren.
It didn't seem as if they ought
to go in the steerage along o' commoner
passengers; but they did, though they
bore themselves like gentlefolk.

behaving his level bejt, and there
weren't many as could beat biro fcr a
fine eye and a RaUant bearing. He
teemed to be looking out fur the r comfort?ah,
but the little beauty she was !
QaeeiH and noble ladies mieht well
envy the red and white of her face, and
even the way nhe walked ai d the turn
of her ;.ead. It was a rght to s?-e.
Her brother and Ler lover were both
right manly, hmdsome fellows, too,
and dear enough they loved her, one
could see.
' Well, we set sail, having beautiful
weather for the first few days, and the j
pretty German ?irl, shewonld c >moout. j

cbttps 1 was always looking oat o' the
corner of my ?*ye, and I observed that
the captain was allays on hand looking
. at h?-r in the most admiring manner. I
wanted to tell her l<?ver that it would be j
better not to show his little beauty so J
mach if he waDted to keep her out o'
harm's way, for girls is mostly that vain
if that handsome!
"Came the second week ont, and we
had hard wt-ather. I was taking my ob
nervations rfght straight along, fox I
noticed Captain Tim was always mak- |
ing much of the old gentleman and his >
wife. The fools! I conld a-told 'em
why he singled them out. It wasn't the
captain's place to be in the steerage. I
longed to tell him so, for I had a pretty
kid of my own at home; but I might
cave pam ior it witn my me.
v ??There wore buf few passenger* in
the cabin, one of them a consumptive
lady who had not brought her servant.
How t wpa done I never knew, bnt the
captain maoagwl to get this handsome
girl to wait upon the sick woman.
Mighty fond of money they must a'been
j to let that girl go out o' their t-i /h' and
fnto the company of a man like Captain
Tim*
"After a while I took notice that th#>
yonng fellow who appeared to be tho

He was out on decft oftener, and his

\ growing weakness of tbe poor womau,
! who was d\ing in tbe cabin day by day,
j and praying only lo bee lau i before she
1 did go.
' One night, ah, sir, I shall nover

j full, and sat looking at the reflection in
j tbe water like a qneen with a silver
| crown on, and a veil of white iiglit float

j like a bride wailing for her husband.
I For the iirnt, time in mauy days I saw

I keep my eyes from her; she looked fnr
j all the world like a sweet angel just
i lent cut of heaven for a little. It was
I my watch, and my duty to bid them beI
low; but 1 don't know why it waR, 1
j couldn't do it. They went forward
I and sat at the bows. There
were barrels there and planks atop, so
I uo one could walk back and forth easily.
I couldn't hear anything they said, of
course, but I eaw by their gestures
that they were talking very fast. Sometime
he would go close up.tp her, and
she would put out her hand and pu-h
him away, then cry as if her heait would
bieak. This went on for some time
when at the last she seemed to grow
c Imer. I saw her throw herself into
is arms. 1 saw him kiss her again and
ifgain; tlen she seemed to wrench
herself awny, and quicker than 1 can
tell, over tshe went.
" I don t know how I got there, or
how the who'e sh'p seemed to swarm so
suddenly with life. I remember catching
at a dark body that was going over
?her po r distracted brother, and his
falling hack into my arms dead as a lo;r,
after giving a great cry. That scream
brought the captain and two mates.
The captain asked, augnly, what was
the row ?
" * Thut little Germnn girl ia over
board 1* 1 6aid ; and if I had any sort of
j a wt apon that was dead sure I'd have
laid him at my feet. He know how I
J felt, he knew, the scoundrel! the villain!
His face changed, his very voice was
different, as he ordered ' Bout ship.'
"One of the boats was down, and we
supposed, through some mismanagement,
it swamped, for we s?w nothing of
boat or lover or tirl; and so that wa^
the end of that. It was a changed company
afterwt'td. The shock killed the
poor eick woman, and she was buried
the same day, for sailors can't bide a
corpse on board ship; but I declare to
rr vi sir. that, t.hnnch we tra!; weights in
that colHn, it stood up ou end and followed
us until midnight. I never saw
such a si^ht before; I kopo never to
at;ain. There it was right after U8, and
the sailors watched it with pale faces
no one daring to say a word to the captain,
who swore if any one but looked at
I him.
"We all made as if the girl had
fallen overboard for the sake of the poor
j creatures who were lelt. They coujeo
trued everything, as loins win who go
wild with grief. But I tbink Ler
bro her understood, though he was sick
wita brun fever all the rest of the voyage.
Her mother, poor creature, came
near d.ving herself, and I am sure her
heart mast have been nearly broken.
It was bird to see that fine-looking old
grandfather tottering round wringing
his bands end shaking his gray old
he?d, while the tears mn and run?may
I never see the like again!
"Next voyage weshipped a groen baud.
| I never suspected till we'd been out
three days that it. was the German girl's
brother. Then I knew he meant mischief.
I told him ! knew him, but h^
t begged so bard 1 kept bis secret. How
often since I've wished I hadn't, though
it might have been no better for him. 1
was sure there was going to be more
trouble, and it r ine soon. He didn't
kno-v ihe ropes and I think the captaic
suspeo'ed who it was and kept; on bis

that horror struck that I vowed I'd
1 ever step foot in that ship a^ain ; ar;d
never ogam I did, althongh Captain
Tim offered me double wages. Sir. t
was a God cursed bhip after that. Mis
fortune went with it every voyage, and
seemed to strike everybody but the
captain. That always seemed strange
to it e. He lost men and the own rs
lost money, but he always oame off scot
free.
"Well, sir, I am coming to ihe
queerest part of my story. I was once
inspecting an insane asylum w>th a
frit-nd of mine from the old connrry.
Ho wished to se? a ca?-e of raving in
sanity, being ab^ut to write a bo> k in
which he wanted to de&cnbe something
of the sort. We bad several cases,
when the keeper said, pointing to a
doable cell:
" 'There in the worst subject in this
or any other establishment He is an
nld spfurantaiu. whoso madness is ho
alarming af about midnight that, iu
spite of all our precautions, we expect
every morning to find him a corpse. We
are obliged to keep him in this closet,
the walls of which are lined that hemav
not dash his brains out. He has been
here nearly a year, and imagines that he
is pursued by a girl, aod held under
water by her till bis brea'h leaves Ins
body.'
" Well, the door was unlocked, and
there, despite the hideously-altered and
haggard face, I taw my old captain?
Tim Tullive !'
" Then," said T, speaking for the firs',
time, 44 at last God had smit ten him."
44 Well, I suppose that's not for us to
say," comiuGed the narrator, * for I
havea'tcoma qiice to the end of my
story."
" Some threa years after the little
Gc -nan beauty threw herself over in
the way I bare told you, I was off
duty in a foreign harbor, and stroiliun
into a street I found a little shop pre
sided over by a woman who was the living
image of poor little Gretchen?I
believe I haven't spoken her name before.
I went in, aud she stared at me,
and I stared at her. I felt myself grow
pale, but shi flushed a>isv red, which
put me more in mind of Gretchen than
ever. So I said to her in German, to
make snro, that she reminded me of a
lass I had once known.
44' Oh ! Bhe cried. ' I was sure I
couldn't be mistaken?you were so k;nd
to me one \ when I was on board fv
dred(;ial Chefeter Beil.'
"Tnen," I said, completely astonished,
and catching my breath, 'it is
really Gretchen !'
414 Yes, indeed, I am really Gretchen,
and my husband is not yet at home ; he
has gone to look after our bit of land ;
but sit down, he will bs back in a moment
; no, no, come in here, dinner
will be ready before a great while.'
411 followed, like oneia a daun, and
found myselt in a neat, pretty little
parlor, lot kin? out on a garden crowded
with flowers, and beyond thit the
shingly Leaob, and further the deep
sea In a corner at one side of the tiny
tireplaoe stood a wicker-cradle wherein
slept a lovely child.
"'That's my little Gretchen,' the
said, with a happy and proud smile.
114 I've got three nice children, the
pldest quite a lad.'
4,4Then, please tell me, for I am!
aearly dying of curiosity,' I naid, ' how '
comes it you are here and not at the M

iC< ptive natufe has often prevented a direful g
jalyeis of what causes them, and, as a result,
itense suffering and final disaster have Usu- tfaaii
ly ensued. The real cause, however, has h^grd
;en a derangement of the kidneys, and all of beat'i
lese troubles are, in fact, the first symptoms . ,
rthe terrible Bright s disease, which" has cast
s dark shadows orer so many homes in the Clean

lood poisoning. 'J his poisoning is brought Pn"(
bout by waste 1 and unhealthy kidneys that sails

rue, therefore, that nine-tenths of all humun
ilments are caused by diseased kidne>8 or
ver, the only certain way to cure these
roubles is by treating the organs which cause D1 g

icod from the fact that over 1,000 ounces of ...u'
lood pass through them every hour, being n
lore than 200 gallons, or nearly one ton in tho t>ner

orn which accompany most of the diseases par^j
aiiKod by disordered kidneys and liver cannot ,

oun ling them are even greater than the the C
gony. And yet a person may be troubled for a los
uonths without knowing the cause of the dis- ^han
uses that have attacked him. Some of tho ..
ymptoms of tho first stages, any one of which
ndioates disordered kidneyB or liver, are these: the
'ains in the back and around the loins, severe Acad
leadHcheB, dizziness, inflamed oyes, a coated qccu
onguo and a dry mouth, loss of appetite, chilly jo-j;
en.-aii >ns, indigestion (the stomach never is in ;f
iider when thekidnoys or liver are deranged), that
. dryness of the skin, nervousness, night dimi
wf-dts mnscnkr debilitv. despondency, a tired far I
eeling. especially at night, puffing or bloating conri
indor the eyes, etc. If any of the following
blngs are noticed about the fluids passed from COml
be system it ahowa that the kidneys and liver devii
ire out of order: A rod d( poait, a scum npon the that
urface, an unusual thicknesa or thinness, a DOrt]
rerv dark or a very light color, a burning senation
in passing, a retention or a frequent delire

The above are a low of the hundreds bf whei
lymptoms which indicate the beginning of ag- ever
fravated caaea of kidney or liver difficulties, -uftr.
ind they lequiro instaut attention. If tlese ri
lymptoms are not checked at once, they are at- p09Sl
uotit certain to result in some one of the many eeae<

It has been our privilege to treat more cases each
md effect more cur s of thiB terrible complaint him
ban has ever been known before in the histoi-y /
>f the world. The wonderful sale which our Y7T
emedies have attained is due wholly to the "
act that they have cured the ones who have of D
leod them. The power and value of any rem- maQ
sdy must rest wholly on a basis of worth, and fl tj0
lereiujust where our Safo Kidney and Liver
Dure has found its wonderful power and sue- sista
!et<s. But in this connection comes one im- Bull
jortant fact: It has always been true that arti- undt
:les of merit are subject to imitations. No one jon?
leeks to counterfeit the bills of a worthies- ?
j?nk. The productions of a cracked inventor a ne'
>r witless writer are never copied. It is jus
10 with a healing remedy. If it possess no
nerit it will not bo subjected to imitation*. If, pr
lowever, it has power and value, imitations ? jja'
viil spring up on every side. While it is a ti0n"
ribute to the value of this medicine that it ha* takei
nutations, still, ia justice to those who are jiave
luffering, we feel that all should be warned jjeve
igainst them.
There is but one known remedy that has ever
jeenabloto cure serious kidnoy troubles or Fix
iontiol these great organs when once deranged, five c

Mr. Richard Knowles, a prominent p^iaci

whs yet at Leadville a man came up
here from Denver named Dexter?Jim the S

lot been prospected very well, the (.
le paid, I think, about "'15,C I '"fla

aach'nery and sinking the shaft, whi( h ? Tn
?as | ready down some 100 feet or more. Bf??k
le worked awav on the mine, people pai(j?
nughiDg at him a good deal, but he ytree
ever onco lost heart. The mine had ^
iot shown up a single lliinq. n the way nu^i
f mineral, and the phafthud been sunk nao C
y that time several hundred feet. Icutu>
)exter did not know what to do. He cover
ad now spent nearly all the money he g
ad, and nothing was coming in. One gj(}D(
ay in the early part of the year 1879 chupj
party came to him and asked pblet
im what ho would take for his Th<
line. Dexter told him, and a Acad<
argain was made between them. *?Paj
'he price paid was, I think, $30,000, i:S 1>ri
ome 85,000 more tbau Dexter had spent Pro
n it altogether. He was mighty glad t,1.?
3 get the 330 000, and thought himself I onc"?,
'ell out of a bad bargain. He rushed declai
ut to Carbonate hill and ordered the Cm
liners to drop their tools ami quit oared
ork. This wa3 abcui 8 o'clock in the well> fternoon.
He said: 'Boys, 1 have sold Th#
ilis hob', and I don't want you to work medic
aether minute in it for me. I will pay **ed (
oa off right now and you can quit.'
Ml. the miners had jnst finished a
rill and were going to place a blast and to eve
Lcov.jr some rock, and they asked to Sent r*
e allowed to finish it before they quit 150 v
ork. No,' eaid Dexter, 'come out, I
on't want you to work ano more; there dgft
nothing in the old hole.' They re- OiJ
ictantly quitted and departed. Dexter |l ^
ot his money and wao happy.
Well, the mine had been bought by a 2
ock company, and in a short time |
:ey began work on it. Now, yonng
mn, what I am going to tell you is the jtzj
iletnn truth," said the miner. " Tbote
illows went up thero to that mine and - A

eared away tbey went in to see how
