Ffny-One.

Fhty-One.
Testing is over with me forever;
Life is too sober ~ ffty-one;
No longer worship the witty and clever;
Things that amused me loathe and shun-
have come to the summit, and now begun
To sink TO the vale on the other SIDE;
There's damp in the air, there's gloom on
the sun,
Whose waning the vapors of Orcus hide.
And my fellow-travelers, left and right,
Fall away from the track as we downward
HE,
To their several homes; they are not in sight;
But heaI the bells as they bid good-byel
How lonely feel as I get more nigh
To my destined inn, a dismal place,
Shut from all glimpse of the goodly sky,
And the sunshine Of every friendly face.
Yet what is to dreadi There's Master there,
Full of pity, TO welcome the weary guest;
Who will bind the foot-sore, and have good
care
OF every poor soul that seeks His rest.
tremble to go 70 Him unconfessed;
/ bear Him no letters from priest or Pope;
But carry passport within my breast
OF His own sure word, and deathless hope.

An Apology and a Reply.

An Apology and q Reply.
APOLOGY FOR ENGAGEMENT TO PENNILEss
BEAUTY.
Her eyes are so bright
And her hair is so yellow
Meath her forehead snow-white:
Her eyes were so bright
That my faith did plight.
She could charm a stone fellow
Her eyes are so bright
Ana her hair is SO yellow
PAS REPLY
When the dinner-timcs come
And you've nothing for dinner,
Without even a crumb-
When the dinner-times come,
You'll wish you were dumb
When you asked her, young sinner.
When the dinner-times come
And you've nothing for dinner.

The Young Wllite Head.

You probe my story when you ask me how
In my LIES morning all my hair is white
As Alpine snow-drifts on some mountains'
brow,
That lifts above the peaks its lofty height.
hy hair was blacker than the ravens wing.
And kindly matrons, aye, and laughing girls,
Smiled not unkindiy on me-foollsh thing,
And praised the ebon shading OF my curls.
But in one summer night. so short and still,
II changed TO CHASTITY white from raven hue;
You can not help IL, in houring-mill,
It comes on easy with q wet shampoo.

CYGNET JOTTINGS.

The oil and gas business is still oom-
ing. A new pump station is to be estab-
lished on p, NJ. McCrorey's land, in sec,
81 Liberty. This will make three pun
ping stations in the Cygnet field. I no.
tice nine or ten new boilers at the sta
tion here, and counted "a wooden wheels
for rigs at Trembly. By this you can
see that there are may wells to be drill d
in here this spring. The Tooly well
near Cygnet is good one.
That possession is half the law, is an
old saw, but appears to be true never
theless, as evidenced by the operations
of railroads and oil leases, and the ways
of getting peaceful possession" are va
rious and peculiar rs few instances
will show: Mr.. ). & Co. get lease on
tract of timber land. A Mr.. T. gets
lease No. 2. He piles up lot of lumber
on an adjoining tract and when he gets
ready loads up the timber for rig. gets
his carpenters ready, and being near by
| all are soon on hand at work under lease
10 ?. Another party desiring to put up
a rig on disputed territory, hires carpcp-
ters and puts them to work. They refuse
to tell who their employers are 80 that
party No. don't know who to enjoin.
Just how many Philadelphia lawyers
it VIII take TO define the other half of
law TO render jusice to the first lessee,
will be more definitely understood after
the experiment is made.
| The wooden tank business gives em-
p oyment to large number or men.
There are two shops at this place and
| N c nE f,i,f .,f .tn In, is
