I LOST IN THE j PINE WOODS. % t L EM—her name was Olemence I —buttoned up her jacket, pull- I i od its high fur collar up | around her throat and struck oft into the pine woods In pursuit of holfy berries, for it was the day before New Year's. Clem was a joyous young girl, very pretty and very light hearted# the only inmate of a white cottage on the out skirts of the village besides Dr. Ran dolph, her father, and old Nance, their housekeeper, her former nurse. Being 17 and unacquainted with the world's gayetles beyond an occasional simple gathering and an evening at the theater or opera when on u short visit to relatives In New Orleans, Clem's pleasures consisted in much reading, unlimited rambles through the woods and down the country roads and much practice on her violin. For un invalid violinist of talent and reputation had sought refuge in that balmy plue region to rebuild health, broken and shattered by too continu ous and arduous work and, being Dr. Randolph's patient, had become Clem's teacher, with pleasure and profit to both. Professor Andrade, a first graduate from the Berlin conservatory, declared Clem had great natural musical gifts, and Clem never tired of her violin. The weather had been unpreccdent edly cold all through November, and in the early part of December a flurry of snow had fallen, making the woods beautiful as it capped the green boughs and spread a white carpet over the mosses and thick bed of fallen pine needles underfoot. This New Year's eve the air was cold, still and biting, and when, in the afternoon, Dr. Randolph started off in his buggy to visit an old bedridden Acadian woman ten miles away Nance put an extra overcoat on the cushions and hot bricks wrapped in carpeting to keep his feet warm, and Clem slipped a flask iu his pocket as she kissed him goodby, standing on the steps between the wheels to do so. "Now, don't stay late. Be sure you come back before the train comes in, for you know NYdis coming tonight," she warned. "We have partridges for supper, re member," she called out as Dumps, the doctor's cob, started out at a pace that meant business. Nodding backward gayly the doctor swept down the street and disappeared around a curve. "I wonder what that silly, tiresome boy Ned has grown to be?" said Clem aloud to herself as she inspected the supper table, already daintily set with old silver and cut glass. In the center a huge bunch of narcis suses and hyacinths was placed, for the doctor was somewhat of a gourmet, and his life abroad and in big cities "Oil, DIKU DE BONTK!" EXCLAIMED CLEM. having left its mark upon him his was 1 a choice restheticism with an insist ence for tasteful and ornamental sur roundings, so that their table was al ways rarely well appointed. The absence of decoration struck Clem qs she gave a few touches to the oclcr.v, olives and wintergreen. Donning a warm suit and a fur lined jacket without telling Nance of her in tention. she started off toward a spot she knew some miles away, where along the high bank of a shallow, riot ous stream grew trees of holly in luxu riant perfection. "I wonder what he has developed into? He used to be a detestable and hateful boy," mused Clem, reverting back mentally to the expected arrival | by the evening train of Edward Slngle j ton, whose property, until he became | of age, had been looked after by the 1 doctor, according to the will of his old J time friend, Ned's father. "Eight years! That's a long time," mused Clem. "Well, I hope his travels have im proved him, for his college days were bad enough." "Heigh ho! I wish he would stay away and not tumble down on us to spoil our delightful New Y'ear's. I nev er could stand him." Clem recalled what a villainous tease Ned had been when on his visit to them during vacation. "He was a tease, but he was a hand some boy," she concluded. Then casting Ned out of her thoughts, she stopped to gather a great i armful of the glorious holly. The distance was greater than Clem i hud supposed, and the afternoon had darkened considerably when her llam lng branches of berries were tied with ; a wisp of gray moss and she turned to go home. Skirting the edge of the "Branch," as those streamlets which cut through the pine forests are called, she came to a sudden halt. From which side had she come? And how rapidly twilight drops into night these short December days! Of course she passed that big elm and those pines, and— Clem was bewildered and had to con fess most reluctantly that she did not know whether slie came by the right or by the left. Her heart gave a flutter as the word "lost" ran through her mind, but she had lived ull her short life more or less in the woods, so beyond a slight tre mor Clem was not frightened. What added to Clem's bewilderment ' was the light snowfall, which covered | up all paths and made everything un familiar. But for that Clem might have real ized where she was going and not de flected away, as she did toward a stretch of heavily timbered swamp land totally unfamiliar. Night was ! drawing on with cruel rapidity, and the forest shades were deepening into black patches and somber vistas, while above, as Clem looked up, she could see a few stars beginning to glimmer. Suddenly she remembered with ter ror that she had left the house without seeing dear old Nance or telling her anything about her proposed quest after holly berries. The wind was rising, and—well, night and darkness had come. Clem was lost in the heart of the woods. Clem went steadily forward, knowing that if she stopped she would be a thousand times more frightened. At last Clem's steps faltered. Stag gering, she sat down exhausted at the foot of a tall pine, in whose branches the night breezes were playing as on an .Eoliau harp. "Oh, Dieu de boute!" exclaimed Clem', lapsing into French, her mother's tongue, as she often did under excitement or when in distress. But her French blood soon asserted itself, and, rousing, she peered around in the darkness which enveloped all things. What was that dark object a little way off? Clem got up and be gun a cautions approach. Her heart gave a bound of pleasure on recognizing an abandoned coal burn er's hut. The door, as she pushed it open, though sagged, still held on its hinges, and, feeling around, Clem found a piece of candle sticking to a board and some scattered mutches. Clem's heart was beating furiously. Suppose they were too old to light? But the oue she scratched sputtered and lit, as did her candle, and Clem found herself iu a hut begrimed with smoke, bare, but clean, in which were a rude bench, a table and a heap of dried pine needles in the corner. Clem sank down with an exclamation of hysterical gladness. Placing her bunch of berries on the table, Clem closed the door and drew the bench against it, while the wooden shutter of the window was held fast by its rude fastening. Throwing herself on the soft mat of pine needles, Clem sent a prayer heav enward whose anguished intensity she, being 17 years, hud never Imagined. There were various vexatious delays. The evening train on which Edward Singleton was leisurely smoking was run at increased speed to make up for lost time. Suddenly there were a crash, shouts, cries and a terrific commotion, an aw ful bumping, a hissing and roaring noise, a shattering of glass and direful shrieks, and the coach, toppling half way over, stood still. Tearing his way out, Ned realized what the accident was. Running over n terrified cow, the en gine was derailed. It had torn its way through an adjoining field, where it ! finally stood, panting and hissing, while j two coaches were wrecked, and the one I in which Ned had been was overturned and ditched. Of the crew and passengers no one was killed, but it was ascertained that there were contusions innumerable, while night had already come. Ned was a good walker, and the pros pect did not appall him specially. | lie would get to Dr. Randolph's late; I but, it being New Year's eve, no one would be in lied before 12, an excellent hour for supper. Ned remembered with pleasure the epicurean tustes of the doctor. A short cut! At the crossroads! Straight across country! Excellent! Nod buttoned UN overeoal. lit a cigur, took his handbag and. bidding adieu to the wrecked train and lamenting pas sengers, struck out for the village by cutting through the woods and follow ing the old military road. To Edward Singleton's utter aston ishment. after an hour's brisk walk he realized that not only had he lost the government road, but that he was in the trackless forest, with nothing to guide or direct him out of it. Ned stop ped. laughed grimly and cursed him self for an unmitigated fool in attempt ing the proverbially misleading short rut. It was too cold to stand there, so j he went rapidly forward. ! "There must be some sort of habita tion between here and the Atlantic," | said Nod after a long and silent tramp. As if in answer, a faint glimmer greeted him from afar. With llghten j ed spirits he strode on and, approach ing, found it to be a streak of gleam coming through a disjointed door or hut. Rapping sharply, he asked who was within. A dead silence answered him. Call ing again, with an imperious rattle, he proclaimed his pacific intentions, his desire for information or a night's lodg ing, supplemented by a hint of reward, but with no better success. Supposing the hut deserted, Ned gave the door a I wrench and, throwing it open, stood | duin founded at t lie spectacle within. A young and lovely girl, richly dress ed, ghastly with fear, stood by a rude table on which lay a heap of crimson holly berries, while a candle burned | beside them. Clem and Ned gazed at each other. "I—a—beg—your—pardon!" was all | Ned could manage to say under the spur of the dilemma. Clem's inheritance of pluck and of merriment under the direst conditions came to the fore, and, the peculiarity j CLEM AND NED GAZEI) AT EACH OTHER, of the situation striking her with a | keen forcefulness, a dotal of color rush ed to her face and a half smile brought out its bewildering beauty. I "Please come in," she said, with a simple directness. "1 got lost in the woods and stumbled j accidentally on this hut, I am glad to l say." j "I am lost also," explained Ned, put ting down his handbag. "I attempted a short cut through the woods, and here 1 am." They laughed, and Clem's terrors van ; islicd like mists before the rising sun. | "Allow me to introduce myself," said | Ned, sitting on the bench, while Clem sat t>n the pine needles, after they had run over their mishaps. "You need not," said Clem. "You are ! Ned. and I am Clem." i "You are Clem7" repeated Singleton ; in blank astonishment, j "Why shouldn't I be?" asked Clem, i nettled. "Because you—are —so"— I "Well?" said Clem, with a simple composure. "I will tell you tomorrow," Ned said hastily. "In the meantime how are we to get home?" asked Clem distressfully, a re membrance of her father's anguish I coming to her. | Ned bit his Hp, for it was certainly j more than he could say. To plunge , back into the forest would be an act ! of sheer folly, and to wait there with | Clem was equally impossible. "You are tired," he said at last, gon ! tly, but firmly. "You must lie down on those pine leaves and let me cover you with my overcoat. I'll build a tire out side and watch until Dr. Randolph comes, for of course lie will search through the woods for you." Nor would lie be gainsaid. Clem was forced to admit, now that her fears ! were allayed, that she was mortally I tired and spent. Sinking on the soft I balsamic leaves and covered with I Ned's overcoat, which he wrapped | around her with a masterful obstinacy, 1 unheeding her remonstrances, Clem : soon fell into a profound sleep, while i Ned paced back and forth outside, ' smoking and replenishing the lire lie had lit. It was its glare, a long dis tance off. which guided Dr. Randolph I to the hut some two hours later. "(iod in heaven!" ho exclaimed when, I shaking him violently by the hand, Ned led him to the door and showed him Clem, sleeping tranquilly, with her great bunch of holly berries by her. It was only a five mile drive back to Dr. Randolph's house. Nance greeted them with an explosion of tears, joy and reproaches. "Come, come," said the doctor, un corking a bottle, while Clem, gayly I chatting, was covering the table with holly and corunna berries. "Here's to you, Edward Singleton, for saving Clem's life!" "Here's to you for bringing me and my holly berries home!" sahl Clem, while the hot snipe were being put on ; the tabic. "Here's to a glorious New Year's," said Ned, "and to my life's happiness!" ; —New Orleans Times-Democrat. Vcnr'n devolution*.
