\ Watch in the
Night
BY Augusta AuIeII seaman.

Priscilla Dunscomb drew back the
curtain and peered incuriously into
the night The action was purely au-
tomato and the discovery that the
fine dsizzle of an hour before had
turned to drenching downpour alone
restored her to consciousness OF her
movements
It's going to be a bad night, she
half whispered, and stood watching the
trickling streaks on the small panes
with an intentness that betokened
sheer absence of mind
In the dull light of single kero-
sene lamp her sharp features we're
blurred and softened but the haggered
work chisseled lines were still visible.
At the back of her head the knot Of
hair was wound so tight as to lend
her face an almost drawn appearance,
yet the gray-shot strands would have
been soft and wavy had they not been
so uncompromisihgl restrained.
Priscilla Dunscomb stared into the
rain-soaked darkness. but her mind
was busy with many thoughts. For
her hour was approaching the hour

over twenty years and she was striv-

After slightly adjusting the patch

There was no softness in her eyes,
as she noted the gray, deathlike pallor,
the piteous pinched features. the al
ternately sharp and muffled breathing.
There was no softness in her heart at
the knowledge of Daniel Dunscomb's
approaching end only a grim, unte-
lentfng exultation that the hour of her
freedom was at hand.
Presently she sat down in wooden
rocker by the bedside and resumed her
vigil At certain intervals she moist
ened cloth in a bowl by her side
and bathed the unconscious mans fore
head and wrists. Her manner of per-
fEning this soothing act suggested an
indomitable repugnance, fought down
by sheer will power. In the interim
she sat with averted eyes, one hand
shielding her face from the light
and waited
clock somewhere below struck the
hour with two rasping, wheezy strokes.
Priscilla Dunscomb started slightly,
and glanced at the sick man. 1t was

scales of life and death hang evenly
balanced.

Points Out New
Danger to Cone
Bearing Trees of State

Another factor which may menace
the reproduction of several varieties
of Maine cone-bearing trees has APP
peared III many parts of the State, ac-
cording to State Entomologist H. B.
Pierson,
There is small borer which at
lacks the seed cones and reduces the
interior of the cones to q dust-Iike
powder, finally destroying the entire
cone. Specimens have been sent to
the State department of forestry for
examination. and an effort is being
made to determine the species and the
extent of their depredations prior to
taking steps to check their ravages.
They are known to attack white
pine and spruce cones, and DR.. Pierson
has received samples Of tn einfected
cones of both these trees, the Brown
Company sending a box of the cones,
and samples also coming in from York
county.
The cones thus far examined have
contained many of the horers, which
are about one-eighth of an inch in
length, and black in color.
At this season of the year the seed
collecting work being done by the va
rious big numbering concerns which
Aih'stii NeAAit 'iuA IL SOiuB ofl, ana
State Entomologist Pierson calls at
tention to an interesting fact in con-
nection with this work.
THE men hunt for the dens of the
red squirrel, who is great little COL
lector of the cones needed for seeds"
he said.
Frequently the foresters will find
as high as three bushels of seed cones
in a squirrels den in the ground, and
it Is peculiar fact that the squirrels
select only the finest, most perfect
cones for their winter supply of prov
ender. This makes the work of the
foresters much simpler, as It would be
tremendous task to sort over large
quantity of seed cones, rejecting the
imperfect ones"
As the red squirrel has always been
considered useless little robber of
birds nests, 1t is a relief to learn that
he Is charged with at least one good
attribute, although 1t seems like a
rather raw deal' to take away his
entire winters supply of food after the
squirrel has put in weeks of unceasing
effort to obtain 1T. However, the red
squirrel does not hibernate, but con-
tinues his foraging throughout the en-
tire winter, coming out to take look
around on every sunny day.
