Mattie turned suddenly around to witness this peculiar exhibition, when Tite's letter fell from her bosom to the floor. "Ze revelation! Ze re-ve-la what shall I say? If I only speak ze Englis so good as you, now!" exclaimed Gusher, affecting a loud laugh. And stooping down quickly, he attempted to seize the missive. Mattie was too quick for him.
Our mineral wealth was likewise lying everywhere ready to the uses of the new generation. The United States now supplies the world with half its copper, but in 1865 it was importing a considerable part of its own supply. It was not till 1859 that the first "oil gusher" of western Pennsylvania opened up an entirely new source of wealth.
"Isn't she the spunky devil!" Drexel exulted. "Say, she could climb the side of a house if she could get traction." "Better put on that silencer again, if you don't want to play tag with every soldier in the district," Wemple ordered, as they helped Mrs. Morgan in. The road to the Dutch gusher compelled them to go through the outskirts of Panuco town.
Topman; my enlarged and better half. Mr. Topman, my dear, of the firm of Topman and Gusher. Doing a large miscellaneous business, and highly respectable." "What a strange meeting this is.

But Norman was already banking the machine, and the flying car responded while the wonder-struck boys gazed open-mouthed. "It's the camp," Norman yelled just then as a little group of shadowy buildings seemed to rise up out of the snow. "They've struck gas!" blurted Roy, as he sprang to his feet. "The men have struck gas and it's a gusher!"
A week later there came a photograph of the gusher and almost all of us decided to buy stock." At this point in the narrative Mr. Tutt kicked the coal hod violently and uttered a smothered ejaculation. "Of course I didn't have any ready money," explained Mrs.
The engineer then brings his science into play and drives an artesian well. The well thus driven may be a "gusher," but for most of them pumps are required to raise the water to the surface. The best well, however, furnishes water enough to irrigate but a very small area.

"Wiz you for ze bird of zat paradise, oh, I shall be so happy." "Then you and father are going into business, Mr. Gusher? I do hope you will be successful. If you can only get father to stick to business," resumed Mattie. "He is smart at inventing new religions, and other things. I know how many churches he has built " "My daughter, my daughter!" exclaimed the impatient and perplexed woman.
