TO ONE IN PARADISE.
THOC wast tha't ell to me. love.
For w'llch mv soul djd pine
A green Isle In the pea. love.
A fountain and a shrine.
All wreathe! with fnlrv fruits.
And nil the HoWf-rs were mine.
Ah. dream too brlcht to last'
Ah, starry hope that illdit nrtan
But to be oercast:
A voice from out the future cries:
"On. on'" hut o'er the past
(Dim gulf!) my spirit holering lies
Mute, motionless, aghast!
For, alas, alas, with me
The lisfht of life Is o'er!
No more no more no more
(Such language hi Ids the solemn sea
To the sands upin the shore)
Shall bloom the thunder blasted tree
Or the stricken eagle sjar'
And all my days are trances.
And all my nightly dreams
Are where thy dark eve glances
And where thy foots. ep gleams
In what ethereal dances.
By what eternal streams?
Edgar Allan Poe.
CONTENTMENT. ,
SOME have too much, yet still do crave.
I little have and seek no more.
They aro but poor, though much they
have,
And I am rich with little store.
They poor, I rich; they beg. I give;
They lack, I have; they pine. I live.

ASK A HUNDRED ' women,
"What constitutes an Ideal hus
band?" and no two will give the
same reply. Scarcely a married wom
an but thinks, that, given more wis
dom at the time of her selection of
a husband, she might have done bet
ter. Few meditate that from seven
teen to seventy women enter into
matrimony with the same imperious
disregard of anything hut the desire
for love, for title or for gold.
Some women say that the ideal
husband must be handsome, brilliant,
good tempered, generous in fine,
possess all the attributes of a geni
us, an Adonis and a saint rolled into
one and none reflect that these at
tributes do not travel together and
that few possess them in combina
tion. On one point women are agreed;
the Ideal husband must be generous.
Ho must not scan too closely milli
nery bills, nor ask how certain sums
have been expended. The ideal hus
band should be good tempered, all
assent, for who could enduro lifo
with a bear?
Then, too, the ideal husband
should never bo jealous. The excite
ment of jealousy might lend spice to
an engagement, but proves cayenne
pepper to married life.
On the domestic qualities of the
Ideal husband women differ. Some
like a husband to go to his club and
enjoy himself, and leave them to
gossip or bridgo at home or else
where; others think the Ideal hus
Imnd should be a constant companion
and never cxperionco the least en
joyment in the society of any human
being other than his wife,
i Some women think that the man
who is able to order Ills own homo
and everything in it except his wife
is an ideal husband, while more of
them believe perfection to Ho in that
man who lets his wifo reign supremo
in, his homo and rule his every net.
An eastern branch of the Young
Men's Christian association is teach
ing its clnss of prospective benedicts
all about their duties toward their
homes, and even how to pick out a
Buitnblo wife to adorn them, but It
i hasn't tried to teach them what their
attitude should bo toward tho wives
they win to wear tho enviablo tltlo of
"Ideal husband." It does not know,
and nobody has over discovered from
any body of women, what constitutes
tho feminine ideal of what a husband
ought to bo.

In beautifying the city. He said thai
Portland twenty years ago was af
flicted by "moss backs" who would
not Improve their homes, streets or
lawns and while the Chic League
there had accomplished something,
the city was not made as attractive

long before until they had a large
number of first class funerals. He
said that he hoped this experience
would not be duplicated by Coos
Bay. Mr. Hyland is a very enter
