T)EOI'LE ore to tired of c-hnrily
concerts mid teas find bores
jrencral," Sue complained, lugubri
awily. "But even tired j)eople roust help
each other," Mne insisted. "Let us
ask Mrs. Brelle to Bug-gent some
6bJnrr." The pretty widow was in a ham
mock, with Bnrnes in chatting dis
tance on the piazza steps, and she
did not welcome interruption.
"Will you?" called Joe, upon her si
lence. "Will I what?" pouting.
Help us to help Unc' Shucks?"
"And who," only half hiding a
yawn, "is he?"
"lie is old and poor and blind," ex
plained Mac, mnking her climax with
most sweet compassion.
"And black," added practical Louise,
's the nee of spades."
The pretty widow looked bewitch
intfly reproachful. "No country poor
house?" she murmured.
A rather chilled silence fell upon
the piazza group. Mae's sensitive face
flushed. Itarnes went up the steps to
her iydfi.
"We cannot spnre old Shucks to go
there,"he said, and enviously watched
i fleck of moonlight bending to the
ripples of her hair.
"Thank you" shy, sweet eyes
raised for an instant to his "and will
you help?"
He wnnted to tell her that he would
beg, dig, burn do any outlandish
langerous deed she willed; but the
words halted. lie only got a bit red
ind nodded.
"Oh, if he's a pet," said Mrs. Brelle,
iulkily, "we'd best take up a collec
:ion that is the shortest way out of
juch annoyances."
"He's in thb' turn of the road, go
'ng out to the golf links," Louise put
n, reflectively; she was housekeeper
ind, found provisions an easier meth
f charity than cash. "When we go
ly for the big game neitt Tuesday we
night give him a donation party."
There was a murmur of applause,
o which Mrs. Brelle added a soft
mnd-clappiiig. The act displayed
oth hands and rings, and she smiled
.vith pleasure over them.
"Very well," she assented, gracious
y; "I'll send a barrel of flour."
Mae threw a grateful kiss from her
inger tips, but the widow was look
ng to Harnes and missed it.
Good nights were beginning. Get
fng from her hammock, the pretty
jvidow gave a little start of alarm
mch a shrill, weird cnll hnd rung out
f the grove: "Who who!"
"Screech owl," announced Joe. And
tames added, in appropriately sepul
chral tones, the old snw: "When a
-.ereech owl calls, witches answer."
"I hope he isn't calling his witches,"
.aid Mae, "to Unc' Shucks' donation."
"They're worse than witches,"
aughed Joe, "who have that business
n hand. Just don't let them forget
obacco, and Unc' Shucks' luck Is se
cure." "I he has tobacco."
"So like Mac," said Louise, "to take
obacco first."
"Well, a pipe," Joe protested, grave
s', "puts heart into a man."
"And next in value," suggested
James, "shall we sprinkle him with a
ittl silver?"
"Don't tell me any more," cried
Cue; "I'm too happy."
The pretty widow was coming up
he steps and noted the girl's face,
.iul how Harnes sought the light of
t. She followed to Mae's door.
"Can 1 come in, dear, for a min
te?" Mae drew up a cozy chair and wait
ed absently beside it. Jlcr eyes were
.till radiant, a dreamy look in them,
mppy and shy. The tone of Harnes'
oice lingered with her and the look
hat said "good night." Hard to strike
uch a face frightened and white, but
he pretty widow smiled nnd com
ae'd it.
"You must forgive me, love, for
intinf that your impulsive ways are
labia to be misinterpreted."
"I beg pardon," growing nttentive
vith a start. "What did you say?"
".Mr. 1'arnes is a man of the world,"
ently, "uccustomed to a flirtation aa
o Ma wine at dinner. He"
"Wait!" with unexpected dignity.
I ! mot care to hear you speak of
Ir. Humes. Hut of me you were
aylnf something of me?"
"Ta.t," rising with an angry flush,
'you asre refusing a kindness. One
,'oulJ think that you mean the way
ou )."
"Thm way I look?"
"My dWr child," over a shoulder as
he went to the door, "you look up at
tlin as if you were kneeling before' a
shrine."
In those next days Harnes could
not guess what the trouble was hov?
should he? tout he was quick to real-,
ize that Mac shunned him and, when!
she could not, was nervous and dumb'
and pale. Meeting her one morning
in the shady lane that led toward the
links, the look on her face grew sud
denly unendurable to him.
"Mae," he cried, "what have I done?
Are you offended with me?"
"No," cried Mae, startled and miser
able. "No, of course not."
"Then why d you treat me like
this?"
"This?" faltered Mae; then looking
at him she suddenly flushed and with
tears springing hurried away.
Tassing on, puzzled nnd distressed,
apound a clump of hazel, he came
upon the pretty widow; she had
heard.
"I am sorry," she said; "oh, T wish
I pould help." Then, hesitatingly,
"Perhaps it would be best to tell
you."
"To tell me what 7" sternly.
"Joe is jealous of you; see?"
"Jnc? Joe!"
"You never guessed? Why, it is an
nld affair, since school davs and pina
fores." "Joe!"
"He has been scolding the poor
child, I suppose, nnd she is afraid to
be seen with you; or, perhaps," gen
tly, "she doesn't want to hurt you."
"Joe!"
"I am so sorry," holding out a
plump, soft little hand, "so sorry!"
Hut poor Harnes could only say
"Joe!" The idea, at first incredible
under the bits of evidence that be
gan to come in, grew past doubt.
By the time he had reached home n
mountain of proof was throbbing in
his brain, lie called himself n bat
nnd hourly accumulated misery.
Trenchery, deliberate fal.sehoo.d, never '
occurred to him.
A perfect day dawned for the golf I
play. Old Shucks sat out on his door
stone and gave smiles and blessings
and smoked his pipe, while the gay j
groups came with their bundjrs nnd ,
greetings. The old man listened keen-
ly with head bent, identifying step or j
voi;e nnd giving a .lolly comment or
grunt all to himself as they passed
on to their game.
"Dnt nr stumble b'long ter Marse
Joe; never could lift his feet, dat
boy."
"Marse Harnes? nin' like hisself.
Mighty down in de roouf fer Marse
Bnrnes."
"Par's de lil widder. I'm; step like
a cat. Urn."
"Miss Louise, bossin' de earth. La,
don' I know Miss Louise!"
"En Miss Sue, trottin' 'long h'hlnd,
totin' de left-overs."
"Whar's Miss Mae?" suddenly loud
er. "Is I gwine miss dnt chile?
Whar's lil Miss Mae?"
"Here, Unc' Shucks."
"Somebody throwing bricks at yo
honey? You walk like yo' steppin' on
yo' heart."
"She is quit happy, Shucks," said
Barnes' voice beside them, "but she is
afraid of hurting some one if she
shows it."
Shucks turned his sightless eyes
anxiously from one to the other.
"De truf lies', chile; better hurt.
em den fash 'em. What yo' happy
bout, honey?"
"I I don't know," faltered Mae.
"Um, What she happy 'bout, Marse
Barnes?"
"It is her secret and Joe's."
The old man leaned eagerly to catch
her reply, but Mae's pretty head was
tilted in indignant silence.
"Marse Bnrnes," turning a broad
smile on him, "if yo' an' Miss Mae
was to go ter de .spring an' fetch
me a drink I'd be mighty thankful;
dat I would."
"I must speak to you," Barnes said
as the girl would have turned away
from him. "Let me at least have
your forgiveness." So they went to
gether down the pretty hill pnth, un
der the elm nnd hawthorn and wind
ing through witch hn.el to the old
spring.
"Urn," grunted Shucks, and filled
his pipe, the smile still broad on his
face.
Presently the pretty widow came to
him.
"Have you soen," she began, anx
iously. "I mean heard, anything of
Mr. Harnes?"
"Marse Barnes gone on ter de
links," shamelessly, "wid Miss Sue,
iiinrin. Yes), niarm." '
But he shook his griz.zled head as
she hurried away. "Dat how de cat
jump," he mumbled. "I'm. Old
Shucks gwine feel a pain In his con
science 'bout dat falsifyin' an' dat
barrel o line flour, um uh who dar?
Marse Joe? Yo' late at de links,
sar."
"I am not going to the links, Unc
Shucks. I am hanging about with my
gun. Miss Mae is anxious about your
chickens; she says a screech owl gets
one every night."
"Hat he does, dat he does," Indig
nantly; "an' I makes no doubt he's
nappin' up one ob dem trees dis min
ute, drenmin' 'bout supper time, but,"
sotto voce, "yo wastin' shot flrin' fer
Miss Mae, chile, yo' shorely is."
Joe, all unconscious of this, went
peering keenly along the edge of the
wood, and the old man listened, his
mind divided between' chuckles for
I the spring and conscience-stricken
grunts for the wood.
) "Ah! hero he is!" came triumphant
ly at last.
"Hit Mm 'fore he holler, Mtirse
, Joe!" Shucks advised, eugerly. "De
ain't no luck in his screech."
I So-Joe took the owl silent and se
cured happy fortune to the donation
party; at least that was the old hum's
I verdict, but he shook his head du
' biously when he considered Joe's
share ot it.
"But da biggest sort er luck," he
grunted, philospohically, " 'bleeged

THE COLUMBIAN,
PINE NEEDLE TltUST..
A New Oregon Industry Which
Promises to Pay Well.
Orlalnnted by a German from the
Korcata of Ttaurlnjtla Leaves Far
nlh Mrdlrlnal OH and
Fiber for rillorva.
The utilization of the pine needles
of the yellow Oregon pine, botanical
ly Pinus Ponderosa, Is becoming an
industry of considerable importance
on the Pacific const. Fifty years ago
it was discovered that the extracts
nnd products of the long, slender
leaves of the pine possessed real effi
cacy In complaints of a pulmonary
character. It is claimed that insom
nia yields to the influence of the pun
gent odor, ami asthmatics have found
a real relief in partaking of the oil
and in sleeping upon pillows stuffed
with the elastic und fragrant filler
manufactured from the interior sub
stuncc of the pine leaves. The il
limitable forests of yellow pine
abounding in the state of Oregon,
with their accessibility to through
lines of transportation, suggested to
a German from the forests of Thurin
gia the transfer of n lucrative busi
ness to the Pacific coast. In tier
many the leaves never exceed two
inches In length, while in Oregon
they often exceed 30 inches, and av
erage 20. In the former country the
forest laws are extremely strict and
often prohibitive, obliging the maker
of the product to use the dried leaves
thnt have fallen to the ground nnd
thus insuring nn inferior and less ef
fective quality of goods. In the west
ern state denuding the yellow pine
of its leaves has been encouraged,
the expert of the forestry commis
sion having pronounced the process
as beneficial. A tally kept of the
weight gathered from a certain num
ber of trees indicated, according to
the Scientific American, that the crop
taken in April weighed 650 pounds,
while thnt of the same trees in Oc
tober yielded 775 pounds. Two crops
are gathered yearly, the later one

(Two Thousand Pounds of Leaves Pro
duce Ten Pounds of Oil.)
being always the largest. The leaves
of the young trees are preferred,
yielding a better qnnlity of oil, it is
said, though this fact is -doubted.
The leaves are stripped from the
trees by women and men who are
hired for the purpose, and who are
paid 25 cents a hundred pounds for
the needles. Five hundred pounds is
regarded as an average day's work.
The. leaves are picked into sacks and
hurriedly sent to the factory. Ex
posure to the sun causes the leaves
to wilt and impairs the quality of
the product. In picking, the thickest
bunches of leaves are selected, nnd
the scanty ones neglected. The vast
quantity available, so far beyond any
present demand, permits the picker
to thus discriminate. The factory at
which the essences and extracts of
the needles are manufactured has a
capacity for handling 2,000 pounds of
leuves per day; but it Is soon to be
enlarged to about four times its pres
ent size.
In the extraction of pine oil 2,000
pounds of green leaves are required
to produce ten pounds of oil. The
process is the ordinary one of dis
tillat ion. In the manufacture of fiber
the leaves pass through n process of
steaming, washing, drying, etc., 12 in
all, occupying four days. Two quali
ties are produced, first and second.
The first, from which no oil has been
distilled, is worth upon the market
about ten cents per pound, The fiber
is elastic and the staple only little
shorter thnu the green leaf from
which it was made, and with strength
sufficient to enable it to be spun und
woven into fabrics. Mixed with hair,
the fiber makes an excellent mate
rial for mattresses or pillows, nnd
repose comes quickly when resting
upon them. It is also used as a par
tial filling for cigars, imparting a
flavor not the least disagreeable, and
calming to the nerves. The oil ex
tracted gives an nf-reeable flavor to
candies. Toilet soaps are made,
Strongly Impregnated with cssentiul
oil of pine needles.
The fiber itself, after curing, looks
like a slender shaving of some dark
wood, retaining its odor indefinitely.
Insects abhor it on that account. It
Is said that t he Oregon factory Is
the only one In the world outside of
