Friday of each week. Exceptions ivill be allowed only In cases where events occur later than the time mentioned.) An UnrcBTftful Dissolution. When you played at bridge with me, When I saw you lightly make. As my smiling viv-a-vis. Every possible mistake, I forgave you, though I paid Dearly for the slips you made. When you played at love with me, Ah, what science then, what skill Drew me to your feet, to be Now discarded at your will; Shall I still forgive you? Yes! Nothing ever grieved me less. Selected. "W r HAT'S THAT? Tape? Rib-. bon?" asked Mr. Jarr, see-1 lnc something In the shape of a small ribbon of about a quarter Inch in width trailing after Mrs. Jarr. "What is it?" he repeated. "Why, It was trailing after you for several yards. And it's silk." i "Well, if you must be so inquisi tive," said Mrs. Jarr, "it's a corset string." "Nonsense!" paid Mr. Jarr. "I know a corset string when I see one. They are round like a sandle wick or an old fashioned shoe lace, and they have little brass tips that are round, and they are made of cot ton, I used to go to the store and buy them for my mother when I was a boy. Ten cents." j "I dare say," replied Mrs. Jarr, as "If she desired to change the subject. "What did that one cost?" asked Mi. Jarr, "a quarter?" "A quarter!" st.id Mrs. Jarr in fine Bcorn. "That shows how much you men know what it costs to keep a woman half decently dressed. It cost a dollar." "What's it so long for? How long Is it?" he asked. "It's-five yards long, and some of them are ten yard3 long!" snapped Mrs. Jarr. "There! I hope that satis fies you, Mr. Nosey!" "I asked you why they were so long?" said Mr. Jarr, grinning, for he saw he was on the point of having revealed to him one of the mysteries of the goddess of feminine frills. Mrs. Jarr sat down and gave him a searching g'.anc-j. If Mr. Jarr would walk into the trap, let him. "Corset strings are made that long so women can lace themselves," Bhe said. "If a woman has a maid the maid can get the long ends around her wrists and pull like all possessed. If she hasn't a maid the woman who Is lacing herself will get the long ends around a bedpost and get a good what-you-may-call-It on it." "A leverage?" suggested Mr. Jarr. "Yes, a leverage," said Mrs. Jarr. "And they are fiat because the round strings cut, and they are silk because, after all, good silk is the strongest, nicest and wears the best." "Thanks. That'll be about all. I hope you don't do the bedpost act." "If you mean do I lace, I do not. I don't have to," said Mrs. Jarr. (No woman will admit she does.) "Hut that isn't about all. Since you are so nosey and while we aro dis cussing the matter, I might as well tell you that I must have a Classl que." "A what?" asked Mr. Jarr, in alarm. "A Classlque; that's the new shape that Is worn with the dlrectolre gowns. If I got a dlroctoire gown; and I should have one." "But you have a dlrectolre gown," faltered Mr. Jarr. "I have not!" said Mrs. Jarr sharp ly. "That Is only a two piece suit a walking suit of modified dlrectolre. So, now that you are interested yau can get mo a bralsealre Classlque. And the cheapest are ten dollar. Hut I can got a very uloe one a beautiful one for olghteon. You can't ait down In them when you are wearing them, you know!" Mrs. Jarr said this last as if It were tho finality of easo and comfort de scribed. "Why, I see corsets advertised for three dollars," stammered Mr. Jarr. Tin. nolnt Is tho nosfCHlon of the LJA-t -u. ,;w,i,v, i,'rn,.i, fi. ..,, ,.., ,, ttm THE DAILY COOS BAY ' ''" -rlmn-llkMmr-mJZirmmmmmBcgmmBaBEmB 13 J "Yes, and I see men's suits adver tised for five dollars, but I notice you don't wear that kind." "It's an awful lot of money for a corset," repeated Mr. Jarr. "Nonsense!" said Mrs. Jarr. "Mrs Stryver gets hers made to order ir brocaded satin. She never pays less than seventy-five dollars. And it's little enough for you to give me the price of an eighteen dollar one since you are so interested In the subject." "Oh, Lord, how long?" exclaimed Mr. Jarr, seeing the pit Into which he had fallen. "Five yards, and often ten, I said, if you are still so nosey," replied Mrs. Jarr. But you bet he'll never be nosey again. Most of the club meetings and usual regular social events in Marsh field and North Bend have been abandoned for the holidays as every one is busy getting ready for Christ mas, but there will be plenty of spe cial events to make the holiday? lively.

One of the Important holiday so cial affairs will as usual this year be the dance to be given by the Volun teer Fire Department on Christmas night. This Is always an elaborate social event.
