Queer on wells.


An O,ean. N. Y. correspondent

u,iddle petroleum district that are never
heard ot in the annals OF the trade. but
there Is none more curious. One yields
n nfoduct which is called the ''Oil of
Low y after I. C. Joy, who discovered
the territory. The other field is called
the Grasshopper field, because Of the re-
semblance OF the light and primitive
walkinp-beams that pump the oil from
the sand 10 a lot Of huge grasshoppers
The Crasshopper field is between
Pleasantyille and Titusyille. Before the
Bradford field was discovered some

peculiar territory for Illuminating oil.

afterwards the owner of the property
dug a well with pick and shovel

the sand at once commanded S15 a

The Childhood Of william Penn.

II is pleasant to picture the childhood
Of the man who was afterward to be the
founder of Pennsylvania 1t was spent
chiefly in Wanstead. He went to Arch
bishop Harsnett's school, at the neigh
boring village Of Chigwell
Before he left school, he believed him
self to have been the subject Of a spirit
ual visitation. It was his twelfth year,
when he was alone in his room, he tells
us. "he was suddenly surprised with an
Inward comfort; and, as he thought an
external glory in the room, which gave
rise to religious emotions, during which
he had the strongest convictions OF the
being Of God, and that the soul Of man
was capable Of enjoying communication
with Him." He seems to have looked
upon this as a first call toa holy life.
But his convictions can not be dated
from this event. which was probably
nothing more than the waking dream OF
boy whose consciousness Of high and
holy things was springing into life.
His education was carefully looked
sitter by his parents, who probably des-
tined him for the public service. For
some years he studied under a private
tntor at his fathers residence on Tower
Hill. It was not until after the restora-
ton that he was entered as a gentle
man-commoner at Christ Church. Ok
ford. Yet, soon after he commenced
residence at the University, he came
under the Puritan influence. Perhaps
Of all sects. none were at that time more
discredited than the Society Of Friends.
Bnt at Oxford their views were taught
by notable preacher, Thomas Loe, 9
disciple of George Fox, who was destin-
etl to exercise the greatest influence over
William Penn. Thomas Loe was inn
prisoned for his faith, but not before his
teachings had taken root, and William
Penn headed q little band Of under
graduates in resisting the new mandates
against Non-conformity! Within the
walls Of Christ Church, Penn organized
= little congregation Of his own. just as
in the next century Wesley formed an.
other inside the precincts Of Lincoln
College. The QHiUer jor February.

X The Man who is Fit For Husband,
and the Woman who is Fit For a Wife,
according to the gospel OF the Higher
Life of the Household. in the interest OF
which Good Housekeeping is con-
Quoted, are Fit For Heaven, as well.
That is to say, those who fully appreci-
ate and improve the opportunities that
husband and wife, respectively, have
for helping to make life worth the liv-
ing. not only for themselves, but for all
those into whose interests and destinles
their own lives are woven; who correct
" measure the responsibilities of the
position and the blessed consequence OF
being Fit For Husband or Wife, or
the baneful result Of being unfit for these
important places in life.
In much Of the public discussion
and private, as well that is had re-
garding this feature Of the interests OF
The Higher Life Of The Household, the
weight Of argument is too often thrown
into the balance against the side in
which the women folks are necessarily
found, and "a Country Parson" in his
paper "W. F. +. WIS; Women Fit For
Wives" throws his frozen chunks OF
truth into the same balance, but with
much candor and comprehension. No
consideration Of this subject, however,
| is a fair and judicial one, that does not
accept the situation as it actually exists
that does not first '.look on this pic
ture and then on this, : with the same
measure and range Of vision. Simply
because woman's realm is at home
and mans abroad, is no reason why
that home should be any happier,
brighter or better that the Woman 10
Fit For a Wife, than that the Man Is Fit
For a Husband. circumstances do
not ..alter cases in this case.
The man whose daily walk and con-
versation abroad in the world, as well
as at home, is such as to Fit him for q
Husband according to the gospel herein
expounded, is one whose life is worth
the living in this world and is "not far
from the kingdom Of the world tc
come. And the Women who are Eli
For Wives will be near at hand when
the roll-call is sounded for the listening
/ ear Of those who are to tscome up high
err be they women or be they men
| No matter how Fit a Woman may bt
for Wife, a Husband may help her tt
i make q heaven on earth Of their home
or force to make it a place Of torment q
i the other end Of the line, both here ant
i hereafter. Good Housekeeping.
