OUR YOUNG FOLKS

Jule Fisher's Rescue.

It had been an unusually severe winter, even for Northern Aroostook.
Snow-fall had succeeded snow-fall, with no interval that could really be

come plodding home on snow shoes, they all agreed that the snow lay from
ten to twelve feet deep on a level in the woods.

No wonder, then, that the warm March sun came to shine upon it day after
day, and the copious spring showers fell, there should have been a very

One morning, we at the village were awakened by a deep, roaring,
booming, crashing noise, and sprang from our beds, crying:

"The ice has broken up! The ice is running out!"

In hardly more time than it takes to tell it, we were dressed and at the
back windows, which looked down upon the river!

It was indeed a grand sight!

Huge cakes of ice of every shape and size were driving, tumbling,
