Phone 138 J Eons ago, upon a bleak, baro spo't, A flying bird droppod from his slender bill A small brown seed, plucKed from a flr-treo's cone, Upon a hill remote. Unheeded, there For many dnys It lny, tho plnythlng of '." , Tho elements. At length n frightened deer, Escaping from tho cougar's stealthy chase, Set his fleet foot upon tho prostrnto seed, Pressing It In tho earth. And thus a treo , , Was planted. In tho wnrm, moist ground for months It slept, nourished In nature's wondrous way, -. - t - A forest's embryo. When winter's time , . , . . Was past, and milder winds blew o'er the land, . A llttlo emerald loaf peeped' through tho mould, -Thrusting Its sturdy blado up to tho light. And thus n treo was born. . t ' .it' Years passed, and sun And dew nnd rnln nil lent their mystic skill, And lol upon tho hillside bleak, there waved A slender sapling, robed In verdant green. Among Its branches fair, birds sang In Joy, And there the wild canary built her nest, And reared her tender brood. . Ages elapsed, And now In glorious might and majesty, Tho ifr-treo stood, tho monarch of tho wild. Its strength and power woro not nttnlncd without Great struggles and discouragements. The storms Of many winters on Its rugged orm Had fiercely boat In vain. Tempestuous gales Had bowed It near tho earth: tho thunderbolt Played round Its lofty head; but firmer yet It stood, defying wind nnd flood, In nnito Resistance. Bonding Its strong, fibrous roots Still further In tho sympathetic ground. It seemed ns though n great Power understood Tho mission of tho tree, nnd gavo It strength. ' . i " Around Its giant form, n forest vast Had grown, descended from tho smnll. dark seed. Dropped by tho flying bird, Tho surfneo of Tho country now was changed. The trcos' deep shado Conserved tho wators of the springs and brooks, And through n splendid sylvan nlsle, a swift Stream flowed, while- all tho llttlo rivulets Wcro gathered to tho mother streamlet's breast, Forming a noblo river far below. : Near by, tho patient beaver built his dams, And speckled trout lenped In tho crystal pools. , ! Within tho sombro woodod shades, there dwelt A motley life. Tho wily panther met Tho grizzly bear In bnttlo to tho death; Tlio fox, tho lynx, nnd tho rapacious wolf, Pursued and trnppcd tho timid mink nnd hnro; Oft leaped tho rod door and tho nntlofod elk Across tho mossy, fnllon trees, pausing To nlako their thirst from out tho rippling brook, A.

Whllo savago forms crouchod in tho covert deep, To slny theso harmless creatures of tho woods. Time passed away, nnd through tho forest depths, Oft enmo tho red mnn for tills winter Btoro Of food and furs. At last ho too was gone, And once agnln tho dark wilds know no sound Of humau volco, or touch of human hand. Uncounted years fled by. Then ono sad tiny A strange, now sound rang through tho dusky glades. 'Twas not tho note of bird or beast; tho sound Re-echoed through tho listening grove, nnd all Tho groat trees drooped tholr tassclod heads, savo ono, ' Tho patriarch of the wild. Straight it stood, And ns tho loud, quick ring of nx on wood, Cnmo nearer and moro clear, sadly It bowed Its hoary head, and murmured "It has cornel" A crash of brenklng twigs ana uoughs was hoard; A low, deep rumblo as of thunder, shook Tho enrth, nnd through tho ancient forest dark A melancholy lnmcntatlon swelled; Tho grent trees tossed their feathery nrniB on high, And swayed from Bldo to sldo ns though In pain; Upon tho air a mournful sigh nroso, And then ensued n silence ns of death. Short spneo elapsed beforo the howors came; Straight to tho forest's slro they went,, nnd oro Tho summer's sun had sot, upon tho ground, Prostrnto beforo Its own, tho monnrch lny, ' ' A monarch still, though 'shorn of kingly powor, And stripped of nil Its royal robes of green. A few days moro, and through n rough, wild road, x ' Tho patient oxen and their drivers walked, Dragging tho great flr In Its cnptlvo chains; , A treo no longer, but n senseless log, Incnpablo of movement, sound or life. O'er tedious, devious wnys their path they took, Until tho river's brink wns reached, and then With strength nnd skill combined, tho giant log Wbb rolled ndown tho bnnlt. Tltoro would It rest, With many of Its slaughtered forest mates, Till winter's coploim rains should freo them for Their funeral rltlo to tho great mill below. For months In henpod contusion did thoy llo, UncoiiBclntiB, though bereft not of nil powor; At lougth tho froshut cnmo, nnd on tho tldo Tho big rntt rodo scronuly to Its fate. Tho mnmmoth mill rccolvod It; Iron hnudn , With vlso-llko clnsp tho patriarch oinbrncod, Doming It swiftly to Hh Hceond death. A fow short momonts moro, nnd whnt was onco A noblo forest treo, was but n mass . Af glistening bonrds. Swiftly tho sawH had dono Their work, nnd now to mortnl vision first - . Rovcalcd, tho flr trco's heart lay bare. ' Ah, who Can toll tho mntchloss benu'y of that wood? ? Its countless convolutions, penciled lines Of growth, Its light nnd shado, concentric rings, And coloring dollcnto, mado all that looked Admlro. It scorned ns though tho forest's air Was In tho fresh-sawn bonrds, tho scout of flowers, Tho hum of Insect life, tho song of birds,. Tho breath of summer and of balmy spring. Nnturo, that wondrous nlchemlst, deftly Worked her trnnsfor.mntlonn. Relncnrnnto Was tho flr troo's soul. Whnt beforo had seemed '' Its tragic death, was Us resurrection. On its wild, nntivo hills its work was dono; 'Twns neodod there no moro; tho wldo world cnllod; Its mission now to toll to all mankind ' Tho gospel of beauty and useful strongth. It chanced, when In tho lumber yard it lny, A railroad magnnto, famed from shoro to shoro, , Wnlked thorugh tho placo. HIb quick oyo saw at onco Its benutoous grain nnd chnrm; and thero ho choso Enough of It to pnnol his own car. , Thus, as his swift train speeds along Its way, Tho beauty of tho wood a marvol Is To thoso familiar not with forest of , Tho west. Nonr tho dark mill's Bldo, n stntoly Ship lay, waiting tho workmen's magic touch To mako It ready for Its maldon trip. Tho master saw tho mellow-tinted boards, And straightway said ."With this Oregon flr, Tho salon for my brldo shall finished bo." And now o'or unknown Boas to lands afar, Whero dusky natives gazo in mild surpriso, Tho spirit of tho flr treo strays, bearing Its creed of grnco and usefulness. Yet not Exhnustod wns tho groat log's fruitful yield; To other distant countries, Inden ships Their lumber cargoes carried, and each tlmo Somo of tho fair-grained wood thoy proudly bore, ' And oft tholr sailors unto nllons told Tho story of tho flr's tonnclous strength. '. It further chanced, In tho swift course of time, That in our nation's capital was reared A splendid edlflco, of wondrous cost, To show tho glory of Bomo sister states In tho fair country of tho distant Bouth. Tho forest products of our Innd woro scanned To And most fitting woods to ornament Theso classic halls. A true friends nf tho west, In high authority and rank, ndmlrod Tho Douglas flr, and asked that some bo sont To grnco tho noblo rooms. Accordingly. In that historic place, wainscoted walls And 'carved medallions toll tho story of Tho flr. 'I On Afrlcn's burning coasts; distant Australia's sun-kissed plains and shores, nnd wild Slborln's frozon steppos and strand; whero old Manila's storied bay gleams bluo nnd fair, ' And famlno-strlckon Chlna'H rlvors flow; Upon Hawaii's palm-orownod umornld 11b; Whoro Chill's cltios rlso 'mid scented gioves, Tho product of tho flr treo found n home. There will it rest until tho Union of Tlmo. Shall take It back unto its mother's breast. AGNES RUTH LOCKHART. m w i
