at Josie Warren, walking along
on the bluff, with little Lucy

and her sand pail and shovel
Mrs. Grosvenor looked at josie's
retreatlng figure a slight flush OF
consciousness on her face.

PECULIARKTHES. OF THE
PRINTER.

The printer is a patron of the art
preservatiVe of all arts, but be fre-
quently has the art of getting q poor
writer into pickle.
The printer sets while standing.
add stands while setting.
TIE printer is not usually q wealthy
person, but generally has a quoin Or 4
two about him.
He sometimes does very poor work
but all his work, good or bad, is JUS
tifable.
The printer does not often carry 3
cane, but you will almost always find
him with stick in his hand. Some
times he is stick himself.
The printer is a materialist. All
his thoughts are upon matter.
Most men like to have things come
out square at the end of each day.
but the printer hates to be obliged to
bring his work out even. This sounds
odd, but is even so.
Though correcting his errors every
day, the printer may all the time be-
growing worse.
Though perfect Jack sprattin his
sondness for lean meat, the printer
never objects to fat.
He is often a profound reader, but
always dislikes solid matter.
The printer is like the actor in the
fact that he hates to see beggarly
array Of empty boxes.
The printer may not be ayerse to
poetry, but he detests pi.
The good printer is knoBn BY his
form. So careful is he Of his form,
that he always locks it up.
Though not always correct, the
printers work is invariably done By 8
rule. ~
The printer is very iuofensive IN
dividual, but is quite clever with the
shooting stick.
The printer is not satisfied with
thinking that his work is complete
he always wants proof of it.
The printer is your true man Of
letters, though he may not bea lit
erary man.
The printer is an upright man, but
he is frequently seen about the gall
leys.
The printer used to be very bash
ful sort of fellow, but now that fe-E
males are employed in printing Offices,
he will het up with girl six evenings
a week, and he goes to press every
day.
The types of the human race are
scattered all over the earth, and the
printer distributes his types in all
directions.
The printer is not necessarily a
sporting character, but his form may
frequently be seen in the chase.
The printer is often beside himself
that is to say, be frequently stands
beside his frame.
Like the lawyer, the priuter is de.
pendent upon his cases for liveii-
mood.
When a printer has finished his
JOB, he works it of.
He reckons his work by the token
by this token may you know that he
gives you full measure.
Much more might be said Of the
printer, but this must do for to-day.
Let US close by hoping that when he
becomes dead matter an Imposing
stone may be erected to his memory.

And then Josie's strange, aw
fully calm answer:
You are already overloaded.

will. Ifthere is time'-and here
her sweet voice quivered you
can send the boat back for me,
BERTHE, if not, I am not afraid to

The little boat crept laboriously
toward land and safety and hap.
piness; and Josie Warren knew
with deathly thrill of something
at her heart, that before it reach
ed the shore, the cruel, crushing
seething wave would have swept
relentlessly over Lilly Island.
That night And while he would
be there among them all, she
would be lying dead-drowned;
with seaweeds in her hair.
And a cold, ice cold shudder
crept nearer and nearer her heart,
that beat so feebly. The surf
tbundered all around the little
spot Of land that was growing
smaller so perceptibly. The skies
grew blacker and darker; the wind
howled and shrieked like domon.
She dragged berself up off the
sands where the water nad alrea-
dy met her feet, and dazedly to a
wretched little rock a few feet
higher.
The waves rose, and rose, and
rose, and sho was alone with the
bitterness Of death.
While the little boat made the
shore, and Mrs. Grosvenor stagger-
ed out on the beach with ashen
lips and horror stricken eyes.
Get somebody TO go hnck for
Miss Warren, quickl' she gaspcd.
'Shc is on Lily Island ! III give
you 500 if you'll bring her back?
She turned imploriugly to a wca-
ther-beaten old fisherman who had
watched them land.
'Llly Island! May God rest her
soul!' and he lifted his ragged cap
revcrently. Lilly Island is five
feet under water by this. s.time!
And Mrs. Cbristic's face grew
ashen with horror, while Mrs.
Grosvenor stood clasping and un'
clasping her hands in panic OF
frenzy.
Josie! Josie!' she cried in agony.
You have given your life for me
and mine, and l dared to think
yoa were COW ard!'
She will not die,' DR.. Carey
said, quietly, with a throb Of rap
turous, reverent thanksgiving in
mis- voice, as be laid Josie's slender
hand back on the coverlet Of Mrs.
Grosvenor's bed. She has been
very near the gate of death, but
God will not demand the awful
sacrifice. She will live!'
And Josie did live to learn that
a party of fishermen, had seen her
on the rocky point on the island,
the waters within o yard of its
sum nit, and found her in a deep
faint so like death that it was
hours before she was restored 10
life and love.
Never again, even when Claude's s
wife grew white and agitated over
trifes, did any one make light oi
it, for there were those who loved
her dearly, who realized she had
elected to give her bright, sweet
young life for theirs.

Forest Oil Notes,

Forest county seems to be PLAYING
the most important part in oil circles
to-day, and the attention of operators
and oil men generally seems directed
in this course on account of the nu.
merous wildcats" that are going
down at present.
Wolcott & Co., at their Peters Run
we'll, are still humping away at a
depth of 1900 feet or more.
The Derrjcb of Monday gives the
following news concerning Forest coun-
ty developments, which is doubtless
correct:
FOREST COUNTY WILDCATS.
Forest county is the paradise of the
wildcat operator at present. 1t IS the
only place where he has reasonable
chances Of striking a pool. Being To-
Gated between Clarion and Venango
on the south, southeast and west, War.
reu county on the north, and Mexican
county en- the northeast, the operator
necessarily presumes something will
be found in its borders. Numerous
wells have been drilled in the county
with no good results further than one
we'll at Balltown and another on the
Cooper tract on the southwest exien.
sion of the Sheffield belt. All other
ventures have proven failures. Dry
holes have been dfilled abOuG Marien-
Vile, along the Clarion county line,
between Balltown and Hickory, and
along the river. There still remain
wide areas which have not been touch
ed by the drill, and where the de-
sired new field may be opened. From
the amount Of wildcat wells which
have been drilled, it cannot be ex.
pected that large field will be dis
covered, such as that of Mexican, AL
legany or Butler. AT best nothing
but pools, or narrow belts, or spots
like those of Bullion, Byron Centre,
Cherry Grove or Clarendon can be
looked for. The wildcat wells now be-
ing drilled will either discourage the
wildcat operator from further efforts
until winter has passed, or open up
what the trade has been expecting for
the past twelve years, FoIest county
