The Doston Record prints a story ot a Black Bay woman who express ed herself forcibly on the negligence of her friends in sending her letters of condolence on the death of her lapdopr. Meeting a friend of hers, he Tcmarked in a tone of voice which reached the by3tanders. . "I am glad to say, dear, that you had ibo -good sense and breeding to write me. Some of my friends, I xegret to say, did not do so, and I -was quite cool to them at the lunch eon -the other day." A fitting punishment for persons who neglect so important a duty! If H Is customary in Boston to send Setters of condolence on the death of a dog or a cat or a parrot. Mi&-iieo"-1 pie -who neglect tietriuty deserve o better fsie than to be treated coolly at a luncheon by the chilly at mosphere. The finer feelings of the Boston woman who turns her children over to a nurse girl or a -governess and JSavIshes her affection on a long Smlred poodlo or a homely pug dog Reserves some consideration from -fche -women who belong to her set. la mourn in solitude is at best a depressing task, and when the loved one mourned is a pet lapdog the neglect of friends must be parti cularly bitter and apt to make the burden of sorrov heavier than it should be. As we understand it, this bit of Sloston etiquette has not yet pene trated to the west, and so long as western people have something bet ter to give their time to it is not Hlhely to gain a foothold here.

A short-lived fleeting summer's morn When happiness seems nowly born, When one day's sky Is blue above And one bird sings and that love. is A little wearing of the years, The tribute of a few hot tears, Two folded hands the fainting breath And peace at last and that is death Just dreaming, loving, dying, so The actors In the drama go; A flitting picture on the wall, Love, death, the themes!

A1IUSIXG THE HEX. The gentle hen is one of our taoblest workers. She is credited xilth producing more wealth annual ly than tho Rockefeller family could absorb without showing it. She is so energetic, so constant, that the poei wno ordinarily considers it a crime to commit a pun cannot resist the temptation to call hers a faith ful lay. There is a plot on foot to stimulate .the returns of the henhouse. Where as the hen takes a vacation In the wlntertlmeTit Is the scheme of a Connecticut man to cut tho poor creature out of this much-needed rest. The manner of doing It is as dastardly as tho Initial conception. M Is no moro than to warm tho sroosts of the chicken coop to such a domporaturo that the simple soul will believe that spring hns come again, will leap to tho ground with a happy cluck and immediately fall (to. , There aro men beneath the con tempt of respectablo persons. This Connecticut Shylock, this slave -driver, taskmaster and "hold-up," is no of them. Ladies may now have blushes tat tooed on their cheeks. Which would be deucedly In the way when they want to faint. A fashion authority declares that the new bookless waist lacks beauty and graco. When enclosing a Coos Bay girl .however, it is full of both. "And if you eat one cookie so Another sum is dojia;- - -You I'uuul whit you have left and know That one from two leaves oner. And now you eat the other and Another sum you do. For you have none left in your hand, When you take two from two." "Oh, dear!" sighed little Isabel This very afternoon; "I thought I knew sums so well I'd not forget so soon,' I really think I ought to go And ask my mamma nJck To get the cookie jar and show' Me my arithmetic." Exchange. The school- mistress sent word to the school that, ow'n to an attack of Illness, she would V c ''nslled to dismiss the c'asses fo'- t' " day. Toward evening she wr . pleased to receive a large bouquet of wild flow ers from the class, and was giving vent to graceful speech for this thoughtful manifestation of sym pathy, while she undid the wrapper, when this note fell from it: "Teacher, stay ill tomorrow, too, and we'll send you another bunch!" MASOXS ELECT. Tho Maid Do you believe It's un lucky to get married on a Friday? Tho Abominable Bachelor Cer tainly. Why should Friday be an exception? Ono of the reasons why women give as a proof that a girl's pretty complexion Is painted on is that they can remember when she didn't have It. That mighty unfair trick of kl'l Ing the fatted calf for the prodigal causes more family- rows than any thing else on earth, except tho divi sion of father's money. Mrs. Miller Is to be janitor of the new building. James Cox will be fireman. The Seventh Grade, won the sing ing contest which was held with the Sixth Grade on Friday last. Mr. D. L. Rood, a former prin cipal of the 'Marshfield school, will present the new building with a flag. The members of Blanco Lodge No. 48, A. 'F. and A. M. elected officers last night as follows: Worshipful master E. A. Ander son, i Senior Warden August Farley. Junior Warden A. J. Savage. Treasurer. R. Walters. Secretary Noris Jensen. The installation will take place to night instead of December 26, as previously arranged, and there will also be work in the master mason or third degree. Xmas presents Try tho GUXXERY. Dr. C.

Christmas TOYS for the little ones at the Coos Bay Cash Store. There are some women, by tho way, Avho neglect to do their Christ mas shopping enrly oven when every article In a store Is advertised ns a bargain. A Baltlmoro undertaker is adver tising "a free grave with every ?75 aunoral," thus enabling Baltlmoro ains at tho very last to satisfy their craving for "something for -nothing." In spite of the declaration of scien tists that dancing makes girls' feet big. that ice cream makes freckles and that hanging on the front gate produces rheumatism, enough mar riage licenses are being Issued to prove that love will find a way. The Eighth Grade made some very pretty calendars ,as Christmas favors for each other. Floral designs were used and colored with water colors. Miss Laura Escott, a graduate of tho Mar3hfleld High School and a teacher of several years experience, has been selected to teach the Sec ond Grade In the new building.
