This suggestion I could not deny and would mildly change the subject. A few months of time passed by when I called on Joe to assist me In my work for a few days. I had a forest trees, and being laid on the un covered soil soon took root and be came a living green of soft carpet. There were some evergreens conven iently placed Inside this room, and a wild woodbine nearby was trained to grow over the boughs of an alder small building to put up which 1 tree which stood near the house, This family also bad a small lot of land In cultivation, say one acre or more, on which was grown potatoes, corn, mellons, squashes, etc. The father of this family claimed the could not well do alone. Joe was to have his dinner each day while at work. Molly and Aleemoo volunteer ed to cook dinner for mo each dny while Joe was at work, for no other consideration than they should dap English name of Joe, while his wife take of the dinner also.

Reference j Any NnV. any newamper, nv htjainesa man In Portland. was known as Molly. The oldest child of this family was a girl and about sixteen years of age. Her par ents had given her the proud name of Cucocookee Aleemoo," or "singing bird of the morning." But being a long namme It was. In common conversa tions, abridged to A'lee, moo. Now these Indians had learned to talk some English and the white peo ple to talk some Indian, consequently ntelllgent conversation could be car ried on between the two. I question ed the parents where they found Buch pretty name for their daughter, when Molly, with slight apparent diffidence, answered in this manner: You see, we Calapoola, have a cus tom, or rather we believe It to be a sacred duty to name our first born In harmony with the most Interesting event that appears to us at the hour Its birth. And when Cucocookee Alemoo was born. In this house, on this spot of earth, it was such. beau tiful morning. The maple leaves were full grown, and the wild flowers were giving us their beauty and loading the Inds with their pleasant odors. And the birds, how strange it appeared. seemed delighted, to hover over our. houe. Sometimes on wing, some times on the boughs among the green eaves, each giving us his most pleas ant notes, seemingly, to honor the oc casion. Consequently we gave her the name, as white people would say, Singing Bird of Morning." Then speaking In an undertone to Joe, "And she has been our singing bird all these years." Aleemoo was In the room and heard all that had been said. And at 'ne mention of being her parents' Singing Bird, a blush came over her beautiful face and she left , the room. . Time passed on and I busied myself in improving my farm, and in getting acquainted with my neighbors. But one fair day as I was cultivating my ; garlen plants I saw Molly and Alec-i moo approaching my cabin. I laid 1 down my hoe and met them at the , gate and Invited them Inside the premises. They seemed a little em barrassed at first but soon were : themselves again. And Molly began, We wash your shirt, we waBh your blanket, you help Joe make fence, , you help Joe plow ground." There was a proposition to ex change work, and although I could wash my own garments I agreed to ex change. Then a suggestion was ; made, "When you work for Joe you take dinner at my house." I could not say no to the offer ; of a warm dinner, as I probably , should have, for should I return home, cold lunch would be my fare; besides a change, sometimes cooked by wom an's bands, would be a treat j My garments were washed and re-; turned all neatly done up. And again the next week and for weeks and month to come, Molly and Aleemoo ,' coming together each time to return ' my garments and to take them away. But a day came at length when Joe, having cleared off a little more land, wished to plow and fence the same. Consequently I took my team and j plow and was at Joe's ranch at an ' early hour turning over the rich bot-! torn soli. The dinner hour came, the team was led to water, then turned on some luxurient grasses near by to graze awhile, when Joe and I re-; paired to the house, hungry if not tired, and ready for our meal, which was spread on a good sized table Joe had made of boards split from square blocks of cedar wood. A white cloth, which Molly had secured in some way and kept for such occasions, but probably never used by Molly herself, was on the table. Plates for four the proposition, not knowing what else to do. But I thought of the two smal ler children to be left at Joe's home while mother and .sister were away cooking for me. I told the father to bring them also. Joe was early on hand to begin work. After a while came Mollle and her children, Aleemoo wearing a new gown with one red ribbon tied In her hair. I pointed to my store room and told them there win but small variety of provisions there, and they must tax their wits in preparing a dinner out of such aa they could find, The atore waa scanned over with evl dent satisfaction, "coffee, sugar lea; you like tea. you like coffee?" I told them (o use their pleasure and prepare what suited them best, "No you like coffee, sugar In coffee, I make coffee for you." The fact was, being born In the south and brought up In the west as most all southern people do, t hitd formed the habit of driuklim coffee, and Inwardly sanctioned Molly's re solve. I also pointed to my sloro of dlshnu which was small Indeed, and to my stock of table linen, which, was also small and of Inferior quality, my dish cloths being cut from linen salt sacks. Yet I had tli'.i underac tion, my uelghlHirs wiu but little bettor off In these luxiirliM. Dinner was announced In duo time. The table was Siread with cure, and the provisions so daint'y cooked I tried to conceal my surprise iiiul sat isfaction at what 1 saw beforo nu. coming from dusky hmnN It illd. Hut the Inillun eye caught the situa tion. It was my plate to uirmiito the seating. Should I plao .'Jcenioo at head of the table? I could not well do otherwise. She was so placed when I was a guest at .heir tuble. Joe nn I Molly occupied side seats near the head of the table, the twi smaller children were so it I neir n.e.

I gave Dirk full rein every Sabbath dny. as the days cam regularly around, for In those iluys we had no church meetings near by to go to pass the time away, or for instruction, and found the count.. y around about me, say within a radius of ten miles, to be more thickly set tled than t was aware. The spring season had passed and June's loi.g days were near, the length of which days gave more time to explore a 11. 1 to become acquainted with the peo ple. Within this area lived sonic of nature's most noble specimens of hu manity. Intelligent and refined men and women were In every cabin. And young men and yoivng women of the fairest promise were In plentiful evi dence there. It was my delight to take these Sunday strolls and mingle with the people. Hut It was on a late autumn day, the frosts of winter had begun to appear, and the Ice king hnd spread his white robes over the summit of the Cascade mountains. one your of time she would go and share my homo with nin the remain der of our days. Of course this "one year of time" was only a pretense not to appear In loo much haste In such matters. The winter season passed with Its usual amount of snow and sleet, al ternating with warm winds from the south which would "tart the grusa to growing and the wild flowers to bloom, and Die spring season return ed with all Its verlgaled beauty and sweetness of odors. Molly and Alee moo made their week's visit as usual, but seemed sometimes to wish to prolong; their stay, I could not en courage them to do so. It was on a late day of May I aaw Aleemoo coming towards my cabin. Hut this time her younger sister, aged ten years, was with her.- Aleemoo waa dressed a little better than on other occasions In that aha wore a new gingham (own that her and bur mother hud gathered and sold wild berries for, and a wild rose was In her hair. The sister was dressed In what appeared lo be bleached cotton, colored to a rodlsh hue with some coloring matter gathered by the In dians from the woods, while her hair bung smoothly over her should ers, 1 was hoeing 111 a small neiii of corn, one side of which bordered 011 the door yard. 1 laid my hoe away and met Aleemoo as usual. Anil us women always have more or less to sny on one subject or another or, as Is often the ruse, tin 110 subject at all. I placed a short bench by the wnll In the shade of the house, while I seated myself on a stool near by. Aleemoo for a while seemed under a 'ie!l of diffidence, tint soon the spell gave way and business began in cm nest, "Was I not lonesome? Was I not tired ot a bachelor's life? How nice It would be if some good woman was there to rare for the fowls and the pigs while I was away, and to have a nice dinner prepared for mo on my return?" And one hundred and 0110 other persuasive ar guments only a woman's brain could invent. Hut I was rather dull of ' cordlngly, When I.urclla ahull come, we, too shall be friends," I assured Aleemoo that Lucell would b happy of her friendship. Time passed without any violation of th 11 ordinary routine of dally llfo until Lucella's limit of "one year" had drawn near. The dear girl was pre pared for Ilia occasion. A few friend were Invited, and Luvella, so clad In garments of her own mak, a few wild flowers In her hnlr, .pain and slightly trembling, gave mn her hand aa my wife, Congratulations and a sumptuous dinner followed, after which Uirella mounted her horse, 01m her father had given her, and rodn to the homo I had an long boon pro paring for both her and myself. A few friends had gathered to wel come us homo, and a supper was prepared for the occasion, after which the vounir neoiile began (o coma In In twos and fours until nur house was full of people. I scarcely knew where they came from, but from tlm hills near and far. The violin was put In tuiin and discoursed sweet music followed by dancing feet until the beams of day began lo break, at which time each guest started for his homii. The next day after our arrival It suenied (ha proper thing lo do to Introduce Lucella to tint surrouiidlngi of our home, and to the stock of thn larm generally, Lucella must feed the geese, but the fen I he red brute were shy of skirts and flounces, and hied away until t sunned them of my presence (lint Lucella was but tlx) other half of myself, which they seem ed lo understand, then quietly partook of their feed without oilier than much gibbering.

"Would I not take Cacocoflkce Aleemoo to bo my wife?" She promised to devote her life to please me In every posilbln and Just way she could, and hoped I would not luy too much stress on the fact that she was Indian. Here was a dilemma. What should I say? I assured Alceuum that I ap preciated true love, let It come from whom It nuiy. and that a daughter of the forest was no exception. Hut I sincerely hoped she would excuse me, Hut really, the truth Is. I. there Is another that holds my heart. Aleemoo said no more for a while. And big tears rolled down her cheeks. A strange spell came over me and 1 could see thn thought waves wel ling up from the Inner depths of her heart. "Ah. me, am I undone forever. Perhaps I hoped loo much, yet 1 lov ed hlm so. Must I go homo to pliio away my days?" A bright shadow fell over her and held her In Its embrace until white hairs had crowned her head.
