Not one rick but three were burning, and the blaze lit up everything for hundreds of yards round.

One of the stacks collapsed, a great uprush of flame made everything for a moment as light as day and revealed a man with a rifle sheltering behind a tree trunk. His back was to Jim and Nat, and he was watching the house. Jim caught Nat by the arm and pointâ€" ed to the fellow. "You may be right at that," Nat agreed and, guns in hand, the two slipâ€" ped quietly from tree to tree. All the time firing went onâ€"not continuously but in short bursts. It seemed to Jim that the attacking party were trying to creep up on the east side of the house urder cover of the buildings. To be Continued THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, OoxNTARIO San Fransisco Argonaut: lot of young people appear to think that life must have been intolerable in the old days before the invention of electric lights, automobiles and some other things. When these youngsters grow older, they will know that their happiâ€" n*ess did not come from the inventions, but from the fact that they were voung. That night I felt the winter veins, A joyous tremor of the icy g And woke to hear the north vibrant strains, While far and wide, by withered and plains, Fast fell the driving snow. When one strange night the sun like blood went down, Flooding the heavens in a ruddy hue; Red grew the lake, the sere fields parched and brown, Red grew the marshes where the creeks stole down, But never a wirdâ€"breath blew. ® From day to day still hushed the sea son‘s mood, The streams stayed in their runne shrunk and dry: Sun rose aghast by wave and shore an wood, Anrd all the world, with ominous silenc stood In weird expectancy: Behind a mist the bleak sun rose and set, At night the moon would nestle in a cloud ; The fishermen, a ghost, did cast his net: The lake its shores forgot to chafe and fret, And hushed its caverns loud. Far in the smoky â€" woods the birds wer mute, Save that from blackened tree a ja would scream, Or far in swamps the lizard‘s lonesom lute Would pipe in thirst, or by some gnarl ed root The treeâ€"toad trilled his dream. Wilfred Campbell has written several descriptive poems that are a great pleasure to the reader. In them are lines and phrases that catch the "imaâ€" ginative eye" and treat it to a scenic feast. Such is his ppem "How One Winter Came In The Lake Region" which will appeal to every "Northernâ€" er‘"‘. Quote: How One Winter Came in the Lake Region (by Wilfred Campbell) For weeks and weeks the autumn world stood still, Clothed in the shadow of a smoky haze; The fields were dead, the wind had lost its will, And all the lands were hushed by wood and hill, In those gray, withered days. To the reader who stops to corsider. one of the greatest joys in life is th« descriptive poem, especially if he is the imaginative type of individual. There are lines that vividly portray scenos that flash across his mind in an endless series of charming peacefulness, or stormâ€"swept seas, as he sits comfortâ€" ably before the fireâ€"place. He visits lands that are strange to him,. he sees people of all lands and all types, and he learns such a great deal. And then. of course, there are certain lines that flow so smoothly, and carry so much meaning. Perhaps it is only one word like "crystalâ€"throated" in "One crystalâ€" throated hermitâ€"thrush," that last line of "Dream River" by Marjorie Pickâ€" thall, which gsays, so much in so few words. M.
