The wonder is that we were not all hustled, protesting, into our graves aeons ago. He who lives and reads, each night before retiring . to his bacteria-breeding couch, experiences a species of wicked triumph at hav ing evaded fato during one more haz ardous day, and the mult'tude of emissaries of death. For the army of solons whose work it is to hunt fresh arguments against the modest life expectancy of men are beginning to be credited. One by one newly dis covered enemies of mortal existence are disclosed by the enterprising scientist, and clay by day the convic tion grows that life is a sorry game with tremendous odds against the human participant. In the mornings men go away from their homes in pursup'ice of d titii" duties, knowing not what grim reck oning fate may have prepared at any second of immediate futurity. Just around tho corner may be lurking a troupe of horrible disease germs to pounce upon the unsuspecting victim. Not knowing whon to expect the cold clasp of the "conqueror worm" man can put up no specific defense, at best being able to adopt only general and insufficient strategies. The water ho drinks, the food he eats, the woman lie kisses, may be the innocent med ium of death. And against tho In sidious attack ho is helpless. Life "would not bo good without water, food or kisses. No man would volun tarily eschew any of tho three; yet all j men recognize them as tho "bought" agonts of the ghastly old reaper. So calloused have wo grown to the new disguises affected by death, and, Teally, to the presence of death, It soif that not a hair of our head will assume an apprehonslve perpendlcu ' larlty in recognition of the most re cent gruesomo discovery of science. A Dr. Allen, of London, In a journal appropriately named Tho Lancet, gives us sinister warning against tho , deadly telephone booth. Better ! might a man expect to charge a bat tery of toxino squirts or grow fat In a cannibal camp, and survive, than : to talk for two dollars' worth in a tolophono booth, says Dr. Allon. Shun all booths as you would tha charnla house, tho dueling ground r and tho burning ghat, he advises, for it is tho resort of assorted germs. Many years ago, when there were no telephone booths, or public towels or unwashed cafe forks, men died qulto as suddenly, nnd as frequently as they - do now. If thoy did not walk blindly into nests of typhus germs when they wont abrond thoy encountered other Influences which were exactly as fatal The old-timer who never chatted with his frlond over a long copper wiro between rteno and Troy, was saved the dnngors of tho tolophono booth; but ho was nono tho less likely to ac commodate, without preface, or preparation, his loving heirs nnd as signs. Thoro was tho six-shooter, tho horned steer, tho storm nt sea and tho hangman's nooso beforo men over attompted to classify a gorm. And beforo then thero was tho nrrow, the mnco, tho adder and tho poison of tho Uorglns. Slnco tho world bogan tho lifo ol man has been ono of excitement and -sudden death. But has novor been tho loss pleasant, despite Us uncer tainties; theroforo it is not worth -whilo to bothor about Dr. Allen and Sils desperate Insinuations, for the TJraznrd of oxistonco Is no greater now tfhan It ovor was, BUILD NOW. It can truthfully ho said that tho -value of vacant property is purely speculative. Instead of heing a soiirco of roYcnuo It Is n constant ox ponso; n n expenso of no small size whon taxes, Interest on tho Invest' mont, nnd othor kinds of out-go nre taken Into consideration. Therefore tho value of thoso Investments must Increnso nt least at tho rato of C por cent n year In ordor thnt tho owner wlll not sustain n loss. On tho other; hand, property that has been Im proved, enables the owner to realize i handsome profit on the amount ex pended and also practically elimi nates the element of depreciation. If you are contemplating building a home for your own use, for sale or for renting purposes by all means do not put It off until next year or next month, but begin now and take ad vantage of the exceedingly low prices In building materials that are now In effect. If you have not the means you can easily negotiate a loan on the proposed Improvements, and still realize a saving of at least 10 per cent. To the owner of vacant property, speculative owner or Intending home builder these are thoughts worthy of -areful consideration. The future of Coos Bay Is full of promise. We should bo thoroughly wide awake at all times and make good use of our present opportunities. We will find that we have been amply compensat ed for the time and money spent.

I broider the world upon a loom, I broider with dreams my tapestry; Here In a little lonely room I am master of earth and sea And the planets come to me. I broider my life into the frame, I broider my love, thread upon thread; The world goes by with its glory and shame, Crowns arc bartered and blood is shed; I sit and broider my dreams instead. And the only world is the world of my dreams, And my weaving the only happiness; For what Is the world but what It seems? And who knows but that God, be yond, our guess, Sits weaving worlds out of loneli ness? ARTHUR SYMONS. Patience Is more often a necessity than a virtue. The average man wastes a lot of sympathy on himself. Ever notice how gracefully the average woman doesn't eat? When gossip meets gossip, comes the wagging of tongues. then Laugh and the world laughs with you unloss you laugh at your own jokes. Next to having a good complexion a woman would like to have a go'.1 husband. Nothing pleases a girl more than hor ability to keep some man away from a designing widow.

"Never!" cried his wife, passion ately. "Never! I deny It! What do you mean?" "A wife!" Some Coos Bay men are tlous they will never allow friends to owe them a cent. so oau their If jumping at conclusions came under tho head of physical exercise most Coos Bay women would be athletes.

"Yes; I use one to read with, one to see at a distance and the third to find the other two," Bacon Do you believe that when a man marries his troubles begin? Egbert Not always. Sometimes a fellow's troubles begin when he asks the girl's father. Mrs. Subbins That Mrs. New come just moved into the Dudley's old home on Saturday, so I called to day. .
