Excerpt from Nature Stories of the Northwest The timid fawn and graceful doe Tread down the clover blooms below; two yellow flames his great eyes grow. Oh, meek gray doe and spotted fawn, You little know as you stroll on That he lurks near with daggers drawn! And ah, how sudden is the spring, How keen the claws that earthward bring The brown-eyed mother shuddering! A crimson pool upon the ground; A low death-wail; the mournful sound Of weeping from the firs around. A gory feast with fangs that tear, A cluster of tall ferns from Where A lone fawn looks in mute despair. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The White Darkness, and Other Stories of the Great Northwest The afternoon light faded gradually till the tall pines cast no shadows, and the white landscape was gray. Whist ling faintly, the wind swayed the forest branches to and fro, now in long sweeps with strong puffs, then in short bowings. The leaden sky was dark and low, cold and repellent. Laflin filled his pipe slowly at the door of the N. W. M. P. Post, Onion Lake, his home. "Looks like snow," he muttered, his eyes roaming over the long distances beyond the forests. Little by little the pipe was filled; he lighted a match. Puff-puff, "I don't suppose (puff) that Jake will (puff) get back to-night (puff-puff-puff). Anyhow, 'I'll have supper by'n'by and take a run over to the Store." He stood there smoking quietly. Then the flakes of white came; dropping one by one at first, then falling in silent quantities, finally coming down in eddying and pirouetting myriads.

Excerpt from Two on the Trail: A Story of the Far Northwest The farmer and his wife became very uncomfort able. Simple souls, they could not understand how a personable youth and a charming girl should sit oppo site each other with such wooden faces. Their feeling was that at quarters so close extra sociability was demanded, and the utter lack of it caused them to move uneasily in their chairs, and gently perspire. They unconsciously hastened to finish, and having at length dutifully polished their plates, arose and left the cabin with audible sighs of relief.

Excerpt from Big Timber, a Story of the Northwest: With Frontpiece by Douglas Duer Estella Benton's experience along such lines was chiefly a blank and the conditioning circumstances of her present journey were somber enough to breed thought that verged upon the melancholy. Save for a natural buoyancy of spirit she might have wept her way across North America. She had no tried stand ard by which to measure life's values for she had lived her twenty-two years wholly shielded from the human maelstrom, fed, clothed, taught, an untried product of home and schools. Her head was full of university lore, things she had read, a smattering of the arts and philosophy, liberal portions of academic knowledge, all tagged and sorted like parcels on a shelf to be reached when called for.
