The Northwestern Indians nearly always made their totem poles out of
Western red cedar, but this choice was probably due more to the fact
that the wood is easy to work and extremely durable rather than to its
fragrance. It may be taken as a very good general rule that woods that
are scented are resistant to decay and insect attack and have good
cabinet qualities.

THE RENEGADE'S FATE.
By Kit Clyde.
"Then you will not listen to me?"
"No. I believe you to be a wicked man, and I will never consent to
sacrifice my child to such as you."
"But if she loves me?"
"She does not--she cannot! She knows your evil reputation, and her
heart is another's."
"I will wait. She loves me, and will be mine. I am sure of it."
"Never! And now, as we have already prolonged this meeting beyond
reason, go, and never speak to me on the subject again."
"Very well, Giles Raynor, I shall not. I shall speak to your daughter
instead."
"Do so at your peril, Tom Walden! Now go!"
"Good-morning, Farmer Raynor, and a better temper to you when we meet
again."
The man whose suit had been refused went away with a smile upon his
dark face, and without the least threat against his rival, or the man
who had given him his dismissal, nor the least suggestion that he meant
otherwise than to honestly win the girl whom he professed to love.
Giles Raynor was a settler in the far Northwest, and a man of
importance in the little town which he had founded.
Tom Walden had come among the settlers within a year, and had affected
a great liking for Grace Raynor, the farmer's daughter, and had asked
for her hand in marriage.
