JKKEJ' THE IIUIGIIT SIDE OUT.
Business men of Coos Hay will be
.-sia-vJjig their own interests as well
sw? tboso of the community by doing
r&beir best at all times to boost their
respective cities.
TJiere aro a great many ways of
't3ohg JL One of them is by talk
zfns Coos Bay, its advantages, what
it lias done under adveise circum
sstances, what It hopes to do, its in
dustries, its growth, to all strangers.
Another is by retraining from cotn
Kl2lnliij; about things that do not
ail, and checking that habit in och
U3 J?very statement of the "knock
i" .should be met with an antidote
I .something good about the place.
Although a policy ot never saying
ilhing about conditions that need
irrnmcxlving is not a good one, and
jai- iliat will lead to dlbaster, a clear
2lKiJDrtIon needs to be made between
suggesting something that will bet
ter tilings and just plain, unnecessary
.Xrecvish "knocking."
We need to keep our faces toward
3lii; bright side of things, and make
Tiaiat side prominent to ourselves and
others.
GOOD EVEXIXG

go about unhappy than he ha3

NOT ALL
is in heaven-
EVIL
AJl's right with the world."
Browning in Pippa Passes.
The press dispatches these days
save crowded with unpleasant 'reali
gns murders, grafting, plotting, and
arriUsidc. Hardly has tho story of
rSaan .Francisco's municipal corrup
it.is.xn. .come to a temporal y end, and
bu Haywood trial has been bi ought
tta a Uose, when other and worse
aXorJes .iro to ho told. In Washlng-.-im-a
murder trial is In progress in
vWeli. says tho press dispatch, "tho
Oii'umony has been unfit for a child
buZhear." From San Francisco thcro
KJiis a second story exemplifying
syjum She awfulness of human pas
tsSon unrestrained.
A.V2iat can tho country be coming
fin?" 3s the exclamation of any stud
zrzit of affairs. "Surely, the world
ij iar from growing better."
Jvnd yet, there Is the other side.
"Xlie upright people, tho person who
arwBpocts the rights and feelings of
.workers these are not tho subjects
ad newspaper comment. It is only
Tfitoc extraordinary that is "news,"
lanys tho Eugene Recorder. And so,
TsritfJw the nowspapers aro filled with
oazrsrs of crime and breach of trust,
xbv?y do not toll tho story of tho 999
c313zcns who aro just.
There is always this antidote for
fcSus ono who sees only evil In tho
Tiwjrld ns ho reads his ovonlng pa
per. Let him think of people whom
Sic Iciiowb in his prlvato life. Men
w'ho would suffer bankruptcy rather
CSmn defraud a creditor by any
means, however legal or custom
zxsyz women whoso lovo of homo Is
t&ie supromo tio. When ono thus
calls tho role ho sees how insignlfl
rui! Is tho proportion of evil.
A burned finger seems to bo
TiH-irer than all tho other seven nut
-ether, and it interferes to a de
Krce with their working, but really
It'jB jimt a small thing. Wrong and
n5ind exist and interfere with tho
parlect working of tho social body,
turn If ono will only seek the other
alUn, there Is much to encourage.
A GENTLE MAX.
He was as mild a man and kind
As in this world of ours you'd find,
So gentle he that In the night
Ho would not even strike a light;
When It was coll and chill about
He would not put the candle out;
So truthful he could not, he said,
To lie, even when he went to bed.
To hang a picture here or there
Was something he could never bear;
And oft tho beating of tho rain
He knew must give the window nano:
He said it always gave him some
Regret to have a week day come,
And as the seasons passed alone
He hoped they would become quite
strong.
Lest it become completely broke
Ho would not even crack a joke,
Or drive a nail, because, ho said
Twas better if tho nail wero led.
To shoe a horse he heard might give
It pain, and he so sensitive
No matter what was his excuse
Could never bear to shoo a goose.
To break the news he'd not agree,
No matter what the news might be,
Lest he should give it needless nain
Or could not make It whole again;
When from its high and lofty tower
He heard the town clock strike tho
hour
He shut his ears, so creat his won.
To think 'twould hurt the hour so.
New York Times.
Every little listener raised an af
firmative hand save one a. chubby
girl, tho pride and Joy of the teach
er's heart.
"Why, Susie!" said tho teacher
In a pained tone. "I counted on you
so. Aren't you going to show your
self as true a Christian as your class
mates? Won't you try to b0 like
the Savior a3 tho others have prom
ised?" "Tears of disappointment and
mortification crowded to Susie's
eyes.
"Dear Miss Kate," she almost sob
bed, "I should love to do what you
want, but I can't possibly bo like
the Savior this next week. I have
promised auntie to be like George
Washington."

INDICATORS OP PROSPERITY
Nowsnaners aro tho iiulinnrnrs
of a town's prosperity. If tho
local newspaper is full of neat
display advertisements and io-
cal reading notices, the causal
visitor will reach the conclu-
sion that the town is wide
awake. Thus tho advertisers
fc will hell) the community as well
as themselves.

Advice is often written in tho sand,
and the rising tide eradicates It; but
experience Is graven on a rock and
the lesson Is not easily lost.
We've shortened up our words a few;
The scheme is far from "twaddle;"
Progressive young folks say skldoo
Our grandslres say "skeddadle."
Midas was so great a man that
everything he touched turned to gold.
It Is different with some Marshfleld
men; touch them with gold and
they will turn to everything.
There aro some men In Marshfleld
who spend too much time worvlncr
about how thoy aro KolnK to cet
their shirts on over their wings.
Thoy will probably oxperlenco more
trouble in getting their hats on over
their horns.
A Marshfleld man In conversation
today remarked: "Woman does not
roqulro study to make herself per
fect. Sho is born that way." And
still ho Is a bachelor. His name fur
nished on application. Como early
girls, to avoid tho rush.
