A London clergyman has discover ed a vacation opportunity, a rest cure which is within the reach of the poor est and the busiest of us. A woman who had been to one nerve specialist after another finally came to him for help. He advised her to stop talking about herself and her ills and to keep as silent as pos sible on all other subjects. She re mained at his house for some time obeying his instructions and departed In perfect health. If tho story stopped here the Lon don clergyman would deserve to have his name enrolled In the hall of fame but like other reformers and philanthropists he was up against the problem of human nature. The woman like the cat came back. In two weeks she had worn herself out telling her friends of her won derful recovery. Any one who has been a visitor at health or rest resorts knows the type of invalid who talks enough to drive a well person to nervous prostration. And it Is not fair always to personify the offender with the feminine L gender. Wo have seen preachers worn out with preaching, who con tinued to preach with sail-boat, piazza or shady lane for the pulpit and any old subject for a text which the unfortunate companion happened 1 to hit upon. And there aro lecturers and reformers who cannot stop cam- 1 paigning as long as thero is anything 1 left to talk about. Oh, they are not j all women. The wisdom of the London gentle man's advice requires so much wis dom in its execution that we doubt if it can ever bo of widespread bene fit. As you read these words the man who, by nature, does not talk enough Is probably approving and putting tho ndvice into immediate and dampening execution, while the woman who talks too much proceeds to voluble discussion of the subject. ' DEMOCRACY'S HISTORY. The present Democratic party 1 claims to bo oldest American poll-1 tical party and tho lineal descendent of the organization founded by Thomas Jefferson. In his day it was known nB the Republican or Democratic-Republican party. Tho first convention since tho party assumed something resembling Its present form wns In 1832, at Baltimore when Jackson was nominated by acclama tion. Tho conventions of 1S4 1-1S4S and 1S52 were all held In Baltimore, tho presidential nominees being Folk, Cass and Pierco, respectively. Conventions hold since that tlmo Tiavo resulted in tho solection of tho following candidates for president .and vice-president. Juno 2, 185G Charleston, Doug las nnd Johnson.

(000 Hmj 'a T HERE IS now and probably al ways will bo a difference of opinion among polite folk as to the use of tho words "lady" and "woman." It Is at times a matter of individual preference but moro re cently the tide has turned to the good old fashioned word WOMAN. Six lines in the printed record of the G. I. A. (a woman's organiza tion) proceedings, but meaning as much as six pages or sixty pages could comprehend, are worthy of be ing printed In red letters, framed and hung upon the wall alongside the charter of every local division's meet ing place. Let us quote them: Number 57 Moved by No. 125, seconded by No. 274, that the word "woman" or "women," as the case may be, be used instead of "lady" or "ladles" by this organization In the by-laws, or wherever It occurs in referring to our members, the good, old-fashioned word "woman" having taken precedence. Sec. 1, Art. 3, page 4. Carried. Certainly It carried. And by that action the women of the G. I. A. rais ed their self-respect not themselves, understood, such a matter not being in dispute nor even doubted to the highest pinnacle of respectability. The good old-fashioned word WOM AN is the grandest, loftiest, best name for man's superior companion. Few words have fallen Into such abuse and disrepute at the word "lady." It has no place In our na tional vocabulary anyway. It Is a distinction which belongs to caste, and can be attained by the women of tliis country only through marriage. It does not signify superiority of grace or goodness. A "lady may be a woman or a vixen, a true woman I neither. In the descriptive as well as in the generic sense, a gown may be the lady's stamp, a woman's a WOMAN for a' that. Wo take off our hat and make our politest bow to the WOMEN of the G. I. A." Women in general, the country over, newspapers everywhere, have dropped the word "lady" since It has been so misused and prefer the more dignified term, "woman." Among those who remain of a gen eration ago, the term in its original meaning, is used and seems fitting and appropriate coming from those who do not know tho practice of mlx- lllfT t U'IMl ..rrnt ilmr tllnnrv TtfVin , . ., . ' ' , . " " 1 oiuncu uj ktictii, 11, au&&i;aia wiun ll 1 is .intended to suggest, but very few still cling to the word and if will un doubtedly be lost, as the above ex presses it "from our national vocab- ulary. Misses Kathleen and Mae Bennett entei tained at bridge at their home Wednesday afternoon in honor of Miss Vivian Taylor of Santa Rosa, Cal., who Is spending a few weeks on the Bay. The home was artistic ally decorated With Indian Arrow wood and vino maple and the tables effectively with nasturtiums. Miss Maybelle Minto of Tacoma, Wash., tho guest of Miss Mary Minot, car iled off first honors in the after- 1 noon's piny. Among those present wore Miss Elizabeth Kaufman and her guest, Miss Marlon Bowler of Boston, Miss Mary Minot and her guest, Miss Maybello Minto of Ta coma, Miss Genevieve Songstacken, Miss Maude Painter, Miss Nollio Tower, Miss Alice McCormac, Miis Lucy Horton and tho Misses Kruso and Mandlgo of North Bend. Coos Bay friends of Miss Edith Simpson were greatly disappointed tho past week when word was re ceived that she would be unable to make her expected visit hore this summer. Owing to her mother, Mrs. A. M. Simpson having decided to spend tho summer in Tahiti, it was necessary for Miss Simpson to ac company her instead of coming to tho homo of her brother, L. J. Simpson at North Bend. Mr. and Mrs. C. F. McCollum of North Bend, have moved into their summer cottage on Coos River where they have as their guests Miss Keano of North Bend, Miss Shorl- dan of Roseburg, George Sheridan of Roseburg, and James Polhemus of Portland. Tho principal event of tho week in society was tho reception tondored tho ladles of Coos Bay Monday even ing by tho members of the Mllllcoma Club. The club rooms wero beauti fully decorated with flowors and foliage and with tho nrtlstic settings and draperies made a pretty back ground for the brilliant throng as sembled there. A charming musical program was rendered which In eluded vocal solos by Mrs. J. W, In gram, Miss Mable MIUIs and Jay iut 'will x luivaoui Ullllt; 41. 1UUU , and G. AV. Kauffman ns accompa atxtxl &tte nists. The Instrumental numbers in cluded a piano solo by Miss Bessie Douglas and selections on the Eng ish Horn nnd Oboe by Charles Gabernache. All tho numbers wero superbly rendered and received with enthusiastic applause. This affair which wi'.l be followed by others of a similar character dur ing the summer season served to emphasize the Important place which this organization fills In tho social life of Coos Bay. There were many flattering comments and compliments by the guests of the evening. Lemonade and champagne punch were served during the evening. Among the ladies present were: Helen C. Gale, Claudlne Kaufman, Maud Turpen, Mrs. E. Pollexfen, El sie B. McKeown, Mrs. W. J. Butler, Mrs. C. W. Tower, Nellie B. Tower, Vivian Taylor, Mrs. E. D. McArthur, Miss Ruth Copeland, Mrs. H.

Milner, Mrs. Win. E. Smith, Mrs. Bert E. Schoon maker, Mary D. Dakin, Mrs. Dor sey Kreltzer and Mr3. L. M. Lane. Any possible feeling that ill luck is always attached to that which "13" is in any way identified, was dispelled from tho minds of those who had the opportunity of parti cipating in the celebration of the thirteenth birthday of little Miss Marion Seaman, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Seaman Tuesday af ternoon. A happier party of little misses was never dispelled than the one that the even-tide of that day separated and took from under the joyous eye of Mr. and Mrs. Seaman and Mrs. J. Schilling who directed the afternoon's diversions. After all had gathered, they boarded the launch Marion and were taken to Coos City where the afternoon was spent in frolic and song and games 'mid the wild flowers with the de light that can probably only be fully appreciated by maidenhood just en tering the teens. Luncheon followed and then the presentation of the tokens of purest esteem and affec tions of childhood. Among the misses participating in the joyous event were Virginia Clark, Lillian Seaman, Adelaide Clark, Grace Will iams, Nellie Warwick, Frieda Holm, Alice McLain, Degmar Fliesburg, Ursula Farringer, Mary Kruse and Marion Seaman. Mrs. J. A. Matson entertained at bridge Friday afternoon in honor of Mrs. Magnes and Mrs. Minto. The function was largely attended and was one of tho most onjoynble of the week. Mrs. Minto carried off the honors of tho afternoon's play. Miss Alice McCormac was hostess to a delightful launch party last Sunday at which Miss Miriam Van Waters of Portland, was guest of honor. More than a score embarked for Charleston Bay where a charm ing day was spent on tho beach and on the shady hillside of Coos Head whore the tang of the ocean breeze mingles with the sweet odor of tho Oregon forest. A delicious luncheon including clam chowder from freshly gathered clams was served. The day proved a most delightful one and the Journey home on tho "Dixie" In tho purple twilight of an Oregon evening wns a fitting finale to an enjoyable outing that will long find a place in a cozy corner of life's pleasant memo ries. Among those present were: Mesdames Fannie Hazard, J. T. McCormac, J. T. French, Edna Mln- gus, Misses Alice McCormac, Miriam Van Wnters, Miss Hogan, Miss Pow ers, Elizabeth Kaufman, Marlon Bowler, Mamio Mahoney, Mary Black. Messrs.
