David Langston, called The Harvester of the Woods, works long and diligently, after the death of his mother, to make a success of the business of raising and selling medicinal herbs which he and his mother had started together. By dint of unswerving perseverance and diligence, he becomes very prosperous and is ready to consider marriage when he suddenly sees in a vision an exquisitely beautiful girl. Convinced that she will become his wife, he builds a beautiful house in his beloved woods and begins a search for the girl of his vision.Finally he discovers her--Ruth Jameson, by name--and learns that she has been living with an uncle who mistreats her shamefully. He proposes to her and she accepts--more for the protection of his home than out of love for him. Despite his attentions, he cannot kindle love in her heart and at length, she falls desperately ill. How David's her potions save her life after all else has failed--including the attentions of a doctor to whom she had once been betrothed--and how David finally succeeds in kindling the spark of love make up the heart-tugging climax of this famous story.

"Bel, come here!" The Harvester sat in the hollow worn in the hewed log stoop by the feet of his father and mother and his own sturdier tread, and rested his head against the casing of the cabin door when he gave the command. The tip of the dog's nose touched the gravel between his paws as he crouched flat on earth, with beautiful eyes steadily watching the master, but he did not move a muscle. "Bel, come here!" Twinkles flashed in the eyes of the man when he repeated the order, while his voice grew more imperative as he stretched a lean, wiry hand toward the dog. The animal's eyes gleamed and his sensitive nose quivered, yet he lay quietly.
