The Truth Well Told.

She was u woman worn and thin
whom the world condemned Cor Il
single sin, they cast her out on tho
kings highway, and passed her by rs
they wont to pray. He was Il man
and moro to blame, but the world
spared him a breath OF shame; be-
neath his feet he saw her lie, but
raised his head and passed her by.
They were people who went to pray
mt the temple OF God On the holy day;
they scorned tho woman, forgave the
man, il wac ever thus since the world
began. Time passed on and the
woman died, and on the cross of
shame she was crucifed, but tho
world was stern and would not yield,
and they buried her in the potter's
field. The man died, too, and they
buried him in n casket OF cloth with a
silver rim. and said as they turned
from his grave away, "we have buried
an honest man today" Two mortals
knocking at heavens gate, stood face
to lace to enquire their fate; he car
ried a passport with earthly sign but
she Il pardon ttom love divine. O!
yc who judge 'twixt virtue and vice,
which, think you, entered to paradise?
Not he whom The world said would
win. for the woman alone was usher
ed in.-Ram's Horn.

Cloth From Pine Needles.

Most men would as soon think OF
gathering figs off OF this,les ms wool
oil OF pine trees yet that is just what
the promoters OF a new Oregon in
dustry propose to do. Mr.. and Mrs.
ID. A. Cords are establishing u plant
at Grants Pass for tho manufacture
OF pine needles into a fabric very
much like n wooden cloth. There is
nothing new in this industry, it has
been carried o in Europe for years,
but never before has it occurred to
anyone that in the forests OF Oregon
is better material md moro OF it for
the manufacture Of fine wool than in
my place else in tho world.
MIR. and Mrs. Cords are enthusiasts
but do not propose to start In on too
large a scale. They intend at first to
make material OF the consistency of
excelsior for mattresses. After that
they will manufacture the wool which
is used Tor underclothing, bandages
and other purposes, where a soft and
puaotC . hCCucNs OulJ tnS
inner fabric of the needles can be
used for the latter, and the process is
expensive, but not more so than the
manufacture OF lambs wool.
Mrs. Cords is familiar with the pro-
cess OF manufacturing fabrics from
pIne needles in Germany and France
and on a visit to Oregon something
over n year ago, it occurred to her
that the pine trees there we're better
suited TO the manufacture Of wool
than those Of the continent. 4 little
investigation convinced her that it
would be worth while to try tho en-
pertinent, and with the assistance OF
her husband she started a small fac.
tory at Grants Pass. Machinery OF
the proper kind was not to be had
and it was necessary to send to Eu.
rope for it.-Boston Journal OF Com
