PROGRESS IN AVIATION.
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.

conceited orator, "nnd stood thoro with

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."

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.
