Bathed in magic moonlight, Her beauty was as a star That shines in the night Her hair like woven silver, Glittering fair and bright, Her face ao warm and tender, Ah, she was heavenly sight. My heart was filled, with longing. For I loved her with all my might; I aaw her in the morning; Gawd! she was a fright!

They ought to realize that the merchants of Koseburg are better supplied with holiday goods tliHn ever before. Our business men have been studying the prob lem of holiday purchases for weeks and months. More thought aud inquiry goes into preparation for the holiday business than people have any conception of. The merchants have been investi gating the tendencies of this year's trade, to make sure that they were keeping up with the latest ideas. They are giving their customers a selection that includes the most recent developments, yet is of such standard quality that purchasers and recipients of the prospect for tonight according to gifts will receive substantial value.

O. V .Coshow, just, appointed to the supreme bench, the Salem Statesman says: "They called him Ted Coshow in the old school days; and he was; a fine fellow then and has kept on going strong along the sanu' line. Now he .is to be one of the Oregon supreme judges. That eyed the three unhatched eggs anx iously. "Couldn't we get a hen doc tor or something for them?" she asked. Alice Insisted on placing the old fowl and her brood In a coop among the roses, In sight of Mt. Pisgah, be cause she said they would enjoy the fragrance and the view. Everything went along smoothly for about six hours. Then suddenly I heard Alice begin tn talk tragically In the yard. From long experience I knew she was approaching me with something on her mind and telling It at every step. She burBt into my study and held toward me two yellow fluff-balls which peeped dismally. "Look." she cried tearfully, "Look! See what that mean, dreadful hen has done." I looked. The chicks' heads were bloody but unbowed. Evidently Chlckenus Horribills had tried to brain her two yellow babies. Per haps she thought something had been slopped over on her. "Oh! Oh!!" wnlled Alice in a fu tile attempt to say what she thought. Then she thrust both chicks into my hands and rushed from the room. In a moment she was back with a bot tle of Iodine. From the way the biddies s(tiea)ed. I would Judiie that iodine smarts a little chicken as much as It does a bte human. "She won't do it any more I'll bet you that." Alice declared emphat ically. And off "she went again, leaving me with two yelping chickens on my hands. Shortly I heard raucus protesta tions from a strons-voiced hen. Thinhlng probably It was being spanked for Its unmotherly conduct. I hastened out to see what was go ing on. Alice was seated on the grass, holding a struggling, squawk ing hen on which she was working energetically. "What in the world are you do Ini;?" I asked. Alice looked up, Hushed and tri umphant, with iMl-flle poised in band. "I'm maplnuring the old thing's bill," she doctored. "And I've fixed it too. Maybe she can bump them, but she can't bite them any more. I looked, and my admiration for Alico's Ingenuity moved up another peg, for she had neatly rounded off the sharp point of that old hen's bill. But Alice was not Bure then that her little charses were thoroughly protected. Later she called me to come out and look at tho' chicks again. There were 12 coal black biddies. "Where are tho two yellow ones?" I asked in perplexity. Alices face shone with the plow of achievement. "There they are!" 3ho pointed triumphantly. "Now the old thing can't tell them apart. 1 dyed them." And, bless my soul, if she hadn't.
