ESSENTIALS OF A HOME.
What are tho three essentials of a
jhoine?
There are many essentials, but If you
were shut up to Just three thlnga what
would you select?
A woman's club of Chicago debated
that question for half a day and reach
ed no conclusion.
One woman held that the three es
sentials are a good temper, a good
mother and tho wife In charge of tho
finances, which raised tho Scriptural
question as to who is the head of tho
bouse. The majority appeared to think
that Paul's Idea of tho husband's su
premacy Is out of date.
Another of tho women held that the
-essentials are "a good mother, a good
cook and a trained nurse." This left
the man entirely out of tho question.
Either ho was not regarded as abso
lutely essential or ho was taken for
granted. And It was suggested that a
woman might bo a good mother, cook
and nurse and at tho same time a very
poor wife.
One woman timidly hinted at a good
husband as one essential, but not much
attention was paid to her contribution.
Late in tho afternoon a minister hap
pened in. lie was asked his opinion.
He replied, "A man, a woman and a
vcook stove."
Whereat tho women applauded the
-.rather cute solution and ended tho do
bate. Evidently It did not occur to them
that n man, a woman nnd a cook stove
might be the essentials of a homo, but
that they might also bo tho essentials
of a dive.
Ono of tho Chicago newspapers took
up tho discussion urd asked for con
tributions. .Many answers were given,
and the one that was Anally adopted
ns the best was this: "A man, a wo
man and a baby."
But this answer Is open to the ob
jection mentioned to the reply of the
. nhilstor.
It seems to us tho solution is simple,
mnd It Is strange so many people should
have missed It. Narrowed down to the
absolute factors, the three csssutlals
of a home are:
A husband, a wife and I OVE.
ix II not so?
IS THIS MAX MAD?
AVhon a contrite gontloman from
dhleago, a few days ago, plodded a
sensational career through a crowd
on Broadway In New York City, be
stowing flvo nnd ten dollar bills upon
grateful members of tho concourse,
he was quickly arrested by an alert
policeman, who assumed him to bo a
clangorous lunatic. Tried for insan
ity by a handful of allonlsts, ho was
speedily convicted, it being hold that
any man who pnssed out monotary
Brntultles In that fashion was a mon
tal delinquent and a prlzo find for
.the Matteawan authorities.
Wo do not know whether tho man
.rovealed tho motives for his strango
notions. Ho may have boon drunk.
JPerhaps ho made tho money In some
pricked transaction In Chicago, and
Ills ronscienco was hurting him.
Again, ho might bo overburdened
with money, and was moroly ridding
lilmsolf of the surplus. Ho may sim
ply havo had a loathing for sordid
cash. Or It may bo truo that ho
really was crazy. Tho police and
tho Insanity experts seem to havo
reached tho latter conclusion with
out Investigating tho others, and
therefore, ho must bo counted a ma
niac until ho can ndvanco somo log
ical explanation for his conduct.
Mon in this century to not glvo
away monoy without renson.
For it is important that overy ono
should havo monoy all tho monoy
3io can got. Without money ono cau-

not buy himself fancy waistcoats, or
fashionable shoes that pinch the feet,
or dinners that Induce gout and dys
pepsia, or strong liquors that make
tho .head ache and benumb the facul
ties, or tickets to insipid musical
comedies. One cannot even be di
vorced from his wife without money,
or rear a family In enervating lux
ury, or ruin the business of one's
friend, or corrupt legislatures or
foreclose mortgages, or do anything,
In fact, except live a simple, unos
tentatious life and work, even, for
that privilege. Is It a wonder that
New York officialdom doubts the
sanity of a man who holds in con
tempt the most Important thing there
Is?
Yet at this moment the disquiet
ing thought comes that perhaps the
Chicago man is the only rational per
son in the country; that only the
fact of his being In the minority pre
vents his adjudging the rest of hu
manity insane, and Incarcerating it,
forthwith.
THE GOLDEN RULE CANDIDATE.
Tho American people know Mr. Tnft,
and It Is vain, therefore, for Bryan or
any one else to seek to misrepresent
the attitude of the Republican candi
date for president toward labor. Mr.
Taft's position toward labor Is one of
sympathy and Impartiality. He would,
give the worker every right to which
ho is entitled and protect him In his
rights. He would sustain the rights of
Inbor with nil tho authority at his com
mand and would not lie warped by in
fluence or prejudice Into nn Interpreta
tion of law or exercise of power that
would do injustice to labor. Under
Tnft as president neither tyranny nor
anarchy would bo allowed to defy the
laws of the United States.
It Is this prevalent confidence In the
absolute justice and impartiality, conj
oined with broad, human sympathy In
the character of Mr. Taft, that gives
ftim his great and growing hold on the
electorate. Tho average American
wants what Is right no more and no
less and he likes to see right doing on
the part of those in power leavened
with sympatl q for human weakness
and mhfortuiu That Is Taft, nnd that
Is why. from Maine to Texas, there is
a supreme faith anions voters of all
political creeds and classes that they
will havo a fair deal, a neighborly
deal, a Golden Rule deal, with Taft
in the White House.
Will President Gompers of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor solicit wage
earners' contributions to Bryan's
treasurer, Haskell, who describes trade
unionism as "contemptible- fanati
cism?" What a present this time would be
If the Bryan political theories of tho
past had been put into practice!
Tho prosperous farmers of this coun
try must lie sadly puxzlcd as to what
Bryan is talking about when be says
they have been "neglected."
Peace, order, prosperity and contin
ued Independence thobe are worthy
"iiibttlous that Republican policy in
tho United States holds out to the his
ter republics of the rontliienr
PLAN TO SING WITH EYES.
Optical Music (o Become Cure For
Use of Spectacles Says Leader.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1G. With tho
Rev. Mrs. Foote Marsh for leader,
the New Thought church, the cardinal
doetrlno of which is that any one
may become anything ho wishes, was
permanently established in Brooklyn.
Tho first meeting was held in Mrs.
Marsh's apartment, 14 South Elliott
place, and announcement was made
that Aurora Grata cathedral, where
Mrs. May Pepper formerly held serv
ices, had been rented for tho winter,
says tho Herald.
Voiceless singing is to ho ono of
tho features of tho Now Thought ser
vices, Mrs. Marsh explained last
night. Bollovers in Now Thought aro
to bo taught how to sing with their
eyes, and by so doing their eyes will
bo mado perfect and there will no
longer ho need for spectacles in
Brooklyn.
Songs will bo Illustrated with sto
reoptlcon views and the faithful will
ho told to sit In sllonco and read tho
vorses to tho accompaniment of
music. But tho singing must all be
done with tho eyes and soul. Thoro
Is no need of making discordant
noises In ordor to sing, Mrs. Marsh
holloves.
"Singing, through tho eyes will bo
of infinite benefit," tho lender of tho
Now Thought said: "Wo do not use
our oyes enough and that Is the rea
son so many porsons aro compolled to
wear glasses. Whon wo do not uso
one of tho senses It goes back to its
original piano. Whon I wont through
the west last summer I took hundreds
of pairs of glasses away from persons
who were taught to seo."
During her trip in tho west, Mrs.
Marsh was ordained in tho Essono
clrclo nnd Is now nn official represen
tative of tho Now Thought, with full
power to accomplish many things for
thoso who bollovo in hor doctrines.
If sho does not do good things, tho
preacher said, sho will bo dropped by
tho Essono clrclo.

The Land of Dreams,
Ah, give us back our dear, dead Land
of Dreams!
The fair, faint, misty hills tho
tangled maze
Of brake and thicket down green
woodland ways
The hush of summer and on amber
streams,
Bright leaves afloat, amid the foam
that creams
'Round crannied boulders, where
the shallows blazo
Then life ran joyous through glad,
golden days,
And silver nights beneath the moon's
pale beams.
Now all is lost. There glooms a dark
morass,
Where throbbed the thrush across
the dappled lawn.
Oh, never more shall fairy pageants
pass,
Nor dance of light-limbed satyr,
nymph and faun,
Adrift among the whispering meadow-grass.
On wind-swept uplands, yearning
toward the dawn.
Smart Set.
A good many Coos Bay men would
fight for their fortunes sooner than
for their reputations.
The two persons I most dread to
meet are tho woman with a past and
'.he man with a future.
About this time paterfamilias gets
stalled with" questions from Young
Hopeful on school subjects.
They say "money makes the mare
go," but with feed at present prices
I think the case is reversed.
I have known somo boarders to
get so far behind with their bills that
they had to marry the landladies.
Considering how cheap parrots are
these days, one wonders why certain
domineering men ever got married.
It Is a mistake to suppose that you
can drown domestic sorrow in one
drink. It takes three and a cigar.
The more we see of some Coos Bay
men and women, the more we regret
that "race suicide" Is not compul
sory. Inthe matter of her looks the
average Coos Bay woman will be
lieve her gentleman friends before
sho will her mirror.
Ilarrininn's Lanio Back.
Note Mr. E. H. Harrlman has
rheumatism of tho muscles of the
back.
Geo whiz!
No wonder he has rheumatlz.
By tho jumping Jehoshaphnt!
Underneath a load like that
Ed has been toting around for years
Most men would be stretched out on
their biers;
Nor corsets of steel
Nor belts and braces
Would be equal to putting them
Back in their places.
But Ed,
Ho just goes ahead.
Limping a little, perhaps, some day,
Picking around for easier ways,
And when he sees
A railroad or two and things like
these
Ho gobbles them up and hikes along,
Singing tho samo old harvest song,
"I gather them in,
I gather them in."
Ed's back
Always has room for another track,
And a little thing llko tho rheumatfz
Don't bothor him much in getting
his.
Doctors may plaster him,
But doctors can't master him
Till they can kill him,
Oh, Ed Is a wonder,
And he'll not ho pazziz
Till his conscience is stricken
With rheumatlz.
What?
Ho hasn't got
Anything llko that?
Scat!
