The airship is no longer a thing to bo derided or thought of as an ln--vontor's toy. The stage of futile misdirected experiment Is ended, and inventors are now working seriously along practical lines, with the pros pects of true success nearer ' than they have ever been before. Two years ago the public watched the jprogress of the pioneers of aviation with mocking indulgence, thinking of them ns poor deluded enthusiasts -with dancing shadows upon the brain. Today aerial experimenters are honored members of society, deemed eminently sane and classed with the manipulators of big proj ects. In two years these air sailors have succeeded In proving that they are not amiable maniacs, but sober, intelligent men who are in the way of wresting a few vital secrets from mature. They are succeeding by their failures. They have given the world sa faith in the future overhead tra vel, when greyhounds of the skies, freighters and excursion ships will Taddle familiarly through the clouds. Prom a wild fancy, air navigation 'has become a possibility, even as, un fluestlonably, It will become a reality ere young husbands of now become grandfathers. The human mind does not take "kindly to unprecedented things, and at Is only natural that the few cal Uow effortB to wing courses through thin air should have been met, at the outset, with facetious speculation and inane criticism. One of the penalties of being a Columbus or a Watts Is .furnished by the witticisms of unbe lievers. Those who would exploit the air as a medium of travel have liad to run the gamut of unrefined jest. The day of Incredulity, fortu nately, is now ended, and with the passing of popular unbelief may real ly be said to have begun the first .telling experiments In aviation. "Europe has progressed much fur ' thor In aerial navigation than the United States. The reason for this -doubtless, is found in the fact that foreign governments have dealt . anoro generously with Inventors than lias our own. The United States -government has only recently dls - rplayod anything like interest In alr t ship building. SInco official encour . agemont has been extended Inven tors, however, this country has ad vanced swiftly In the now science. Even now, however, the United Sta tes Is far bohlnd Germany, Eng land nnd Franco, all three of which countries maintain small airship fleots of hypothetical effectiveness, subordinate to tho armies and na vies. Whether airships might be used to any advantage during hostilities, in their present crudeness, Is doubt ful. Tho time Is coming, however, when aerial navies will become car dlnnl fnctors In tho armament of tho world. No ono doubts but that tho United States will moot tho now con dition whan tho need arises. Hut whether for war or travel, airships .-are certain to come Into gonornl uso nvlthln the next gonorntlon or two, -nnd, naturally, tho nation which has progressed furthest In tho science of flight will become tho leading mll Jtary and commercial powor. For Uils reason nothing thnt might fur nOior their work should bo donted tho btrruntors of this country. -A Tirand Ovation.

Life's Gifts. When I grow gray and men shall say to me, , . "What was the worth of living, truly told? Lo! thou hast Ijved thy life out; thou art old; Thou hast gathered fruit from many a green-leafed tree, And kissed love's lips by riany a summer sea, And twined soft hands In locks of shining gold, But all thy days are dead days now, behold! Life passes onward, what is life to thee?" Then will I answer, as thy gracious eyes, Love, gleam upon me from dim far off skies, "Life had Its endless, deathless charm and still That charm weaves rapture round me at my will. Life has its giory for I have seen Thee; And roses, and June sunsets ana the sea." GEORGE BARLOW. You are never requested to explain to a friend. Every Coos Bay man has an aim In life, but some of them are mighty poor marksmen. There are some Coos Bay girls who make sweeping assertions but do not often handle a broom. There are some men on Coos Bay who never swear, and I wouldn't be lieve some of them on oath If they did. He I could marry any girl I please. She There's tho rub. You don't please any. The Stingy Man. He Won't you miss me when I'm far away? She No, I'll always think of you as very close. Louise, after being scolded, could never be reconciled till mother had assured her that she loved her, which resulted on one occasion in the following dialogue: "You don't love me." "Yes, I do love you." "Well, you don't talk like It." "Well, how do you want mo to talk?" "I want you to talk to mo like you do when we have company." ff &.4X?3?nw9HH,BHBBMVK TJtT ..AiHKMEJHBHBLMMet?"MlL..aihkjbj GEORGIA HARPER Who Appears at the Masonic Opera House Tonight In The Title Role of "Camille." Does Any of This Footwear Fit You Divorce Is permission to sit In again at a losing game. When a man goes to heaven alone it's a sure sign that he died In In fancy. Engaging manners are an asset in ' other circles besides the matrimonial market. In the merry waltz of life we should all learn how to reverse gracefully. Maybe, after all, modesty -Is keep ing one's opinion of one's self to one's self. A good many things haye been done In the name of charity, and a good many people, too. We can always think of a lot of reasons why other people ought to be satisfied with what they have. Many a man gets the reputation of being well Informed because peo ple happen to ask him tho things he happens to know. "Now, .Tnhn. you know If I were to die you would weep over me and tell everybody what a good wife I was." "No, I wouldn't, believe mo." "Well, I would for you, just for decency's sake. And that shows I'm not half as mean as you are." "It Is nonsense to say that a man never has the last word In an argu ment with his wife." "Lots of men get the last word." "You admit it, do you?" "Certainly; their wives hand it to them." SWEET HONEY SUCKING BEES. SWEET honey sucking bees, why do you still Surfeit oh roses, pinks and violets, As If tbe choicest nectar lay In them, Wherewith you store your curious cab inets? AH, take your flight to Mellsuavla's lips! There you may revel In ambroslan cheer, Where smiling roses and sweet lilies sit. Keeping their sprlngtido graces all the year. "V7"ET. sweet, take heed. All sweets are - hard to get. Touch not her soft lips. Oh, beware of that! For If one flaming dart fall from her eye (Was never dart so sharp), ah, then you die! John Wilbye. THE VALLEY ROAD. A T eventide I shade my eyes " And peer Into the west. Where, winding down the shining plain And round each shaded crest, The highroad goes tho sunset way Upon the endless quest. TULL many a traveler I have seen (And one was passing fair) Go down the valley from the door And swiftly vanish there. Some 1 have sped upon their path Ana ugnteneu some of care. ONE day I, too. shall take 'my staff And down tho valley go. For ono who went was passing fair And waits for me, I know. And I shall find her, O my soul, Beyond the sunset glow! James Owen Tryon.
