Tha results of true friendship are far reaching and often produce startling effects. Bert DImmIck, who was en route homo from Bandon recently in company with a number of friends, missed tho train at Coquille. His party learned his absence shortly afterwards and when Beaver Hill When They Are Shy. Leap year is one of our pleasant fic tions. We talk as though perfect ladles took advantage of the occasion to go up to defenseless men and ask them If, kind sirs, they would uiairy the fair ques tioners. As a matter of fact, If there Is one time when the ladles nre shy it is dur ing leap year.

We can, most of us, recall tho I childish years when we looked upon the age of 30 as being tho end of all t real living; romance, adventure, I achievement must surely Ho behind that tremendous accretion of years. Wo can, many of us, recall the ab surdly youthful and unfinished sen sations with which wo passed tho mark and found romance as alive as over, adventures offering at every turn; achievement any that should count at all still hidden In the gray folds of tho dim future, and life giowlng distinctly more Interesting and more enjoyable day by day. Tho childish imagination can hardly bo sti etched to allow for tho awakening qf the Impersonal, intellectual curios ity which is the mainstay of age, and which does more than any one thing ir human life, unless It bo an inborn capacity for love and trust, to make life an enjoyable affair. To bo able to look out beyond our own part and portion in life and watch tho rhyth mic motion of life itself waving among Us human puppets; to lovo form and color and sound for their own sakes; to find tho sincere record ot other lives as instinct with Inter est as our own; to see, to hear, to smell, to perceive life wldoly is to gain a broader swath than in child hood wo could ever dream of. "What is not done at 30," said a famous jurist, overlooking a gather ing of his youth kith and kin, "Is not deno at all." There Is truth and un truth in tho nssertlon. Genius In- Idecd, has usually given a sign and (most often an uncomfortable one jby 30. But life is n long ladder, and Jthero aro many rungs before wo Breach the height of genius.

It ic claimed by navigation men at Portland that the Breakwater on her last trip down from Portland to Coos Bay made the fastest run ever made between the Columbia river and this port. Concerning the matter, the Portland Oregonlan says: "The steamship Breakwater ar- i ived at Coos Bay last Friday after one of, the fastest passages yet re corded between the Columbia river rnd Coos Bay. The Breakwater made the run from Astoria dock to the landing place in North Bend in 16 hours and 20 minutes. From bar to bar tho log book showed 14 hours and 5 minutes. Bad weather has been prevailing and the performance of tho Breakwater is considered a record-breaker."
