WHAT'S 4 WIFE :

GA wife," saws Mr.. Lofty, in answer
to the above question, "is woman that
belongs to a man. She'sa pretty little
creature, made to tickle his fancy, his
vanity and his solflove and to laugh,
ing and dance through his otherwise
dull habitation. But upon her dance,
mind you, she must see that the house
is kept in order; that the dinner is well
cooked; that the buttons and the hose
are all right, aud that nothing in the
whole household economy ever mtcrferes
with lis comfort. In short, wife is a
pleasant sort Of universal servant to her
husbands will and pleasure-a most
agreeable provision made by the Creator
for mans good. She is compound of
flowers, music and domestic animal
very useful and very oruamental-all
the more desirable for her lack ofmental
pewcrs; because, were she not in this
respect so much inferior to her decrecd
lord and master, she might become so
presumptuous as to think that a shoe
which fits one foot ought to lit the other
that good rules work both ways and
that just so much comfort as she qigcs
she has right to demand in return {;
that just 50 much honor and respect as
she pays she should receive; in short,
that she is in number and importance of
rights and privileges the peer Of her
husband" Thus smith Mr.. Lofty-and
no" hear the response of Mr.. Common
seasc "Nay; but a wife is given ncith-
er Tor toy nor a servant, but for a
stoadiast friend. She is, indeed,
tount Of JOY and pleasure, such as to q
true heart, there is not elsewhere on
earth she is, indeed, the brightener of
his house, and the wise and careful man
ager of her family-of her family-for
whatever is his is hers; aud between
welded hearts the words mine and thine
are impudence and absurdity. But she
Is more than this-she is his confdant,
his adviser, his ever sympathizing
lnend-his able and most tender conso.
Ter, his strength even when his COURAGE
droops she Is the voice of Gods love
and comfort to him as he tolls and
struggles through this weary world.
THIS is what a wife is, if she answers
her Makers ideal but she is seldom
found, alas because man is SO unwor-
thy.

MAxIMs FOR YoUNG MEN i. The
world estimates men by their success in
lite, and By general consent, success is
evidence oil superiority.
2. Never, under any circumstances,
assume responsibility you can avoid
consistently with your duty to yourself
and others.
3. Base all your actions upon a prin-
ciple OF right preserve your integrity
OF character, and in doing this, never
reckon the cost.
1. Remember that self-interest is
more likely to warp your Judgment than
all other circumstances combined; there
fore look well to your duty, when your
interest is concerned.
o. Never make money at the expense
of your reputation.
9. BE neither lavish nor nigcardlv :;
Of the two, avoid the latter. A mean
man Is universally despised, bat public
favor Is a stepping-stone to perferment
therefore. generous feelings should be
cultivated.
l. cay but llttle-think much, and
do more.
3. Letyour expenses be such as to
leave a balance in your pocket. Ready
money IS a friend in need.
8. Keep clear ofthe law; for even if
you gain your case, you are generally
loser.
10. Avoid borrowing and lending.

gors and bad habits they impair the
MUD aud lead to q waste Of time.
II. Never relate your misfortunes,
ond never gricye over what you cannot

From The Clarion Dem9crat
Oil in Forest County.

A few days ago, weyisitcd Clarington,

situated on the north side of Clarion

We found much interest manifested in
that neighborhooj, on the subject of oil.
Maple Greek, which cmptics into the
Clarion river, from the north side, about
three fourths Of a mile below Clarington,
seems to be the centre eofattraction. Two
engines are on The cropnd, and the der
ricks partly up, and operations will com.
mencc as soon asthe weather will permit
One Ct these wells is located on the cast
side Of Maple creek within few rods of
the mouth, and the otheron the Clarion.
a short distance above. We understand
that DR.. Scott, ofOil City, anda number
of eastern capitalists, have purchased the
Armstrong lands consisting Of some
I4O0 acres, on the Clarion. both above
and below Clarington. Their land runs
down to Maple creek, and they are the
parties who are there commencing work.
\ we'll was bored down some 300 feet Mt
this point in 1851, and abandoned Oike
all the other wells on the Clarion,) al
though the gas was strong aud oil in
dlcations excellent. Oil now gathers in
this old well, aud is frequently taken oat
by persons in the ncighborhool. Old
citizens tell US of oil springs and surface
oil having boon known to exist in that
locality for 30 years From what we
can learn, we think Maple creek, and

would be more economical to make them

them. Their effect. when donucd by
the little victim, was ludicrous in the
