Plain people hesitate to even men t'.ion Ibsen for fear of assuming a wisdom which they do not possess. The Average Reader, unless a sweet girl graduate or president of a liter ary club has no theory of Ibsen to ad vance. This is not saying that the average reader if steered up against them by accident or some guiding hand, does snot enjoy the plays of the late fam ous Norwegian dramatist. Since Ibsen's death there has been much written about him, and on the principle that a cat may look at a "king a very Average Reader may pre sume to draw a moral from two facts which his biography states. Ibsen said that a man of genius "had no time for friendships, and he allowed thirty years to pass with no rouununication between himself and giarents. That is the first fact and the second is that Ibsen's plays all enfl In a hopelessly sad tangle and ithat his own life closed with a period of darkened mind when he awaited death without hope and without in telligence. The Average Reader ventures to deduce from these statements an in ference very comforting to average Sntelligence. Perhaps the average wian whose absence of genius gives "him leisure for the demands of family sind friends gains through his homely (fluttcs and pastimes a saner view of life. Affection, appreciation, sacrifice and service are what common every Jay existence among our fellows de mands without much talk about it, sind this is the highroad to optimism and sanity. THE LOS AXGELES WAY. Tho city and county of Los Ange les, California, have voted to Issuo CiS;T00,000 in bonds for use In paying the expenses of constructing good roads in that part of tho Golden sta .40, and this action displays a com .jnipndable spirit on the part of tho taxpayers and citizens down there. Road building is purely a business rjualler, and the people of Los Angc Sles -will not ask tho state or the Unlt-i-ed States to construct the roads for rtbom. They have resolved to build "itheni without further dolay; and it will pay, Just as It does for a city to .Improvo her highways by paving. iLos Angeles has gono ahead at a r-upld pace during the past ten years, all of which is duo to tho progresslve ness of her population who do things In a strictly business way knowing that what Is spent in the way of sub stantial Improvements will bo return ed several times through tho increase eoT property values and tho greater demand to own real estate in tho wlclrAty. PRECOX AS A DAIRY STATE. An editorial paragraph appearing 3n a "ate number of Hoard's Dnlry roan has roferenco to Oregon ns fol lows: "Oregon cannot yet bo con sidered a dairy state, but during tho Mini year or two her farmers have .gone mpldly into dairying. In the ;year of 1907 over $17,000,000 worth tot dairy products wore produced. If, Sin ho next ten yenrs, tho increaso of dairy products is as great as it has I boon In tho past ilvo, Oregon will wnrik among tho leading dairy states of our country. Dairymen of the s east 'should look well to their lim vrels, for people of tho west movo energetically nnd they will havo no well worn ruts to prevent a rapid (Oiovomout. Jt tokos moro persuasion kJn.an old dairy district to got tho dairymen to accept a now idea or vrlnciplo thnn it does In tho now sec tion whoro habit has not taken pos session of thoir roasonlnff.

Be Kind to Your Father, kind to your father, he has a hard time, pick up a dollar and toil for a Be To dime; He bears all the burdens and chops all the wood, And still you all tell him he's not any good; While mother, dear mother, she goes through the days, Cooking and cleanirig and getting the praise. Be kind to father don't send him to bed With jeers and with rancor to ring in his head; He sits in the ofllce and sweats for the dough While mother skips 'round where the sea breezes blow, And writes, "Darling Husband It's pleasant down here; Please close all the windows if storms come,' my dear." Be kind to your father and don't pull his leg, Till he's almost compelled to turn beggar and beg; He's chopping the kindling and earn ing the money And getting sweet letters from mother: "Dear honey Look after the kitten and feed the pet bird, And water the rubber plant, love, not a word!" Be kind to your father and keep him from worry; His life is all trouble and bustle and hurry; Don't beat him at breakfast and bang him at night, But play him some music and treat him all right; "Regards to your father, and tell him to send A check for more money, my wad's at an end!" Selected. They're Getting Wise. Tom Do you think it really does any good to tell a girl she's the first woman you ever loved? Dick No; for nine times out of ten you're not the first liar she's ever met. A SORE AFFLICTION. Of all the bores that try men's souls And cause them to repeat Some very wrong and naughty words With !gor and much heat The ono bl bore that takes the prize Add matches any two la. If you arc a Judge of bores, The one that tioubles you. Toil can be quite resigned to those Who meet you once a year Anil pour for one brief afternoon Tin Ir troubles In your ear. It's those who follow you about And oviry moment spoil With stupid, stale anil pointless wit Who should be boiled In oil. You know the kind tho ono who thinks Of you as his one friend. Who always wants to hang around Ills leisure time to spend. And who you wish you could suppress Or blot him from the view. Yet cannot quite Insult because He makes so much of you. Lllco dripping of a constant rain That wears nway a brick. The steady boro gets on your nerves And reaches to the quick. Though you may hint about a gun That's lying on tho shelf Or grow sarcastic when he calls, He will not chase himself. The Rescue. The storm hnd spent Its force, leav ing the proud ocean liner a wreck of ita former self. The hatches were abaft tho binnacle, nnd the spanker boom had n compound fracture in Dnvy Jones' locker. Any one at all acquaint ed with nautical terms will see nt once that tho queen of tho seas was in bad shape. She was sinking slowly but surely into water that was several miles deep. There was no hope of getting her to port. The small boats had been washed away and the life preservers had all been worked up Into hamburger steak for tho benotlt of tho steerage passen gers. The outlook wos dark. Suddenly a young girl rushed up from uelow and shouted, "Saved!" Launching her "Merry Widow" hat, she Invited all to step aboard, which they did, nnd a pleasant voyngo was had, provisions enough having been taken nlong to last thorn until port could bo made. Tribute to Her Skill, "The dlsguiso was perfect. Ills closest friends didn't know him." "How did ho make up?" "Had n lady barber cut his hair." VT. woman wants to uiako hor With 10 &? . If a d Tea t husband sit up and take notice she tells him he has been talking in his sleep. Don't ask for a stone and expect to get bread. Even a stationary posed to run. engine is sup- Induce 'people to laugh with you Instead of at you. For ages women have been trying to conceal theirs. There Is no argument able to dis count a feeling of happiness. It Is better to be born poor plucky than rich and unlucky. and Beware of the spinster who asks you for a match during leap year. Married women should remember that nagging doesn't make the nag go. If a guest makes himself too much at home his host is apt to wish him there. Don't attempt to make your mark in the world by. making a mark of your neighbor. The smile of a hypocrite is on a level with the laugh of a hyena and the tears of a crocodile. The Xnughty Boy's Suspicion. "Where on earth is my umbrella?" demanded a Coos Bay man who was starting downtown. "I'm sure I put It in the hall stand with the others last evening." "Father," volunteered his son, "I s'pect Mr. Blank took it last night!" "Oh, you naughty boy!" exclaimed a grown-up sister; "how can you say such a thing?" "Well, when he was saying good night to you I heard him say, 'I'm going to steal just one!" " She Had An Appetite. They are talking about a girl 10 years old named Anna Smith, in Ke nosha, Wis., who has a strange and voracious appetite. She will devour a dozen candles as fast as they are handed her, and has eaten twenty raw potatoes in as many minutes. With people looking on she ate two pounds of butter and the same of uncooked bacon, and then finished with a pound loaf of bread. At an other time she ate two dozen large pickles, a pound of lard and a pound of honey in the comb. Like a shark, she is always hungry, nnd if she ever gets a husband he will have to hump himself to get her enough to eat. Inquisitive Edwin. "Say, maw!" "Well, what?" "How do they get holes in lace?" "Why, they make the lace round the holes, my son." "But it ain't lace 'though It's got holes, Is It, maw?" "No, Edwin." "Well, how do they get the holes in the lace they put round the holes to make the lace, then?" "Child, you will drive me to dis traction." "Where do they get tho holes, maw?" "Why, the holes are just air." "O, they're air holes?" "I suppose so." "Well, there's air holes in paw's hat. Does that make It a lace hat?" "No. No. No." "A Swiss cheese has holes in it. Does that make it Swiss lace?" "Hold your fool tongue! Do you hear?" "Didn't you say all lace had holes, maw?" "Yes." "Well, I've got shoelaces, but they ain't got no holes In 'em." "Leave the room and permit me to finish 'Lady Lingerie's Lost Lover; or, How Lord Lumbago Was Lured Away by a Lissome Little Lallapalaza of n Lacemaker.' " "Maw, kin you make lace?" "No, Edwin; that is not one of my accomplishments." "I don't think you could, maw. j Mrs. Knockenborger said you was so fat, lacing wouldn't do you any j good," nut maw wasn't too fat to give Edwin a lacing that did him some good.
