The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1881-04-27


SOD, the last ALLEGHENY" having drop
ped out Of the mouth OF the creek yes
terday morning. Ofall the favorable
seasons for running lumber, that is in
weather, water, &C., we don't believe
there ever was one that would come
up to the one just past. The creek
came up to good rafting stage and re-
NAMED so for two weeks, allowing all |
who had board to run to get ont |
safely. The river is Just right sor
running and there is DO reason why |
all the RATS should not be landed safe |
ly in market. Tionesta creek was
never so free oflumber after the spring
run since the first inception of the bus
iness as it now is. We are glad to
note in this connection that lumber
and timber are bringing better figures
in Pittsburgh this season than they
have for ten years. Timber is selling
at from twelve to eighteen cents per
cubic foot, while some prime lots have
brought as high as twenty cents. Man.
ufactured lumber commands proper
tionately large figure, we understand,
but have not heard prices quoted. All
this is highly gratifying. to our people
who andnentD W '~"o of
Inor4drs. Burdett and her daughter had
irgone to London, and were settled in
apartments for the winter. They had
= their windows full of plants, some of
is which were in bloom, and they had ca
p naries Gagged among them. Their apart
Id ments were bright and cheerful, and
furnished in warm colors they seemed
ne suitably situated. Mrs. Burdett was
ed never weary of talking of Norman La
to mar. He seemed to have impressed her
40 wonderfully. His fine presence, his
a noble bearing, and his mild, beautiful
e. face were constant themes of delight to
k her. She described him SO often to the
nc rosy-cheeked little woman Swho served
1T their meals, that one day she exclaimed:
"In million I'd know him !"
e. " You could not fail, for you do not
re find one such in every million" had
been the reply.
e. Zaida never mentioned him. She did
not even appear to listen when her
mother talked of him, but usually
/? caught up her Kensington work and
became intent upon it.
e. The girl had changed. She had lost
er some of her old vim and fire. She read
if a great deal, and spent much time with
her cheeks pillowed in her hands, gazing
tn dreamily out at the window.
One day her mother said to her, a
he trife sadly:
en- II am afraid you are growing digni-
lg fed. l never have to correct you any
more"
ne 1t was only when they were walking,
e e as they did every day, that she wes'
