The next day many wild Great

cllned to shun each others society,
came together to the shore and
snufed uneasily the smoke-laden
breeze.
The old arrow maker and his
daughter had packed the pony and
started southwark as the alarm
spread, to join others of the tribe
who were seeking places of safety.
THAT night the cruel, red line
crept across the sky and the intense
heat, borne toward me in suffocat-
ing waves, almost overcame me.
Next, small burning bits of bark
commenced TO drop occasionally,
causing the flames to spring up all
around in the dry herbage. My
agony was so great that great drops

The soft, complaining murmurs
ceased, as my head jerked suddenly
sidewise. l rubbed my eyes, but
there was only the little old black

Harry West, of Scappoose, has a
herd of Jersey cattle which would
make any dairyman proud. Mr..
West MIXED an average of eight
cows all during the year 1899, with
the following result, as is shown by
the books of the Marydale cream
cry, where Mr.. West disposed of
the product: Average pounds of
milk for each COW, 6,775; average
test of milk Sd pounds of butter
fat per COW, or 3.67 pounds per COW
for the year, which, by the rule of
adding one-sixth, would be 423
pounds of butter. Each one Of
Mr.. Vests COWS earned him $7e. SO
throughout The year. A great deal
Of money and care has been eX-
pended by Mr.. West on his Jersey
herd, but certainly he is we'll repaid,
not only by cash, but by possessing
one OF the best dairy herds in the
county, besides the assurance of a
greater annual earning each Sue
ceeding year. AS an evidence Of
the superior qualities of Mr.. Vests
cattle, he sold a three-month's old
calf for $45 cash.-St Helens Mist.

THE GIANTS STORY.
By FELIx.

one-half miles from Newport,
stands all old scraggy apple or
chard, with soft banks of green,
smooth turf lying underneath the
'nteriaced boughs. One warm,
hazy day in September, when the
northwest wind had concluded to
take day off and make it'up next
May, l sat under those trees the
whole delightful afternoon with the
yellow sunshine dropping down
through the leaves as if some good
natured giant were scattering his
gold for the benefit of needy NOR
tails below.
Not far from my resting place
under the apple tree there stands
the blackened stub of what was
once mighty yellow fir. There
are only few charred roots left
now. and these are growing less
every summer by reason of picnic
fires built among them.
AS I gazed idly round, I won-
dered what the world was like
when this old remnant was a tall
green tree; if men and women had
sought its shade then; if little, bare,
brown children had played their
games underneath its spreading
arms; if--and then my wonder grew
too great for words-for, in place of
a charred stub, rose shadowy out
lines of a grand fir tree, with
branches reaching far out on the
side next the water and waving
gently with a breeze I could not
feel.
Then voice began-such low,
soft, signing voice-and it said:
"You have called me, now listen.
I could not have spoken for my life.
Man" continued that eerie voice,
when stood as you now seem to
see me, all the hills of this part of
the coast for many miles north, east
and south were covered with the
dark green of my brothers. On
many of the ridges their stark
trunks are bleaching to this day.
lust across the water on one side Of
a. steep canyon lie all that is left of
group of giant trees that were in
their prime when 1 was but sap
ling. Their strong arms reached
proudly upward until at night it
seemed as if the stars were strung
upon them; but before the first
white wings of a strange race went
sailing up the coast, those great
ones had been laid low in their
pride; they had been uprooted by
the most fearful storm that six cen
turies had seen.
"As / grew to maturity, from
time to time my branches sheltered
parties of braves who had been
hunting deer through the forests
south and bear in the berry swamps
west of me. Here also was the
home of old Toemery, the best
arrow-maker in all the country
round, and an attraction no less
than his arrowheads was his young
daughter. Ray-noo.
cat last came a year when the
rains forgot to fall soon after the
sun began to return from the south.
The springs dwindled and dried
away and the larger streams were
mere threads that could scarcely
keep the trout alive in the deep
pools. The hills grew bare and
brown, and the ponies had to be
driven far back in the mountains to
find sufficient feed. One day three
braves roasted their veuison on the
beach near me, and with much
misgiving heard them speak of

publican authority that Alec. Robert

council proposes to put the thumb

If he refuses to resign Robertson has
seven good Republican votes to help
throw him out just as soon as three

movement. Evidently the sage of quail

anything in carrying out mis- ambitious
