Official Paper of Coos County. Mill' EARTHQUAKES? t r-nllE CATASTROPHE in the Me u Iteiranean has revived a discus- alon of the possibility of foretell 2ag earthquakes. How far any warn 2as of such a disaster is likely to be iceded is perhaps open to question, "brst the feasibility of giving one cer iainly de-serves consideration. With fccreasfng knowledge concerning the erases of seismic disturbance, per Japs a trustworthy forecast will so mo day be practicable. The utmoat that conservative geologists are willing to say today is that certain woll defined regions are much more susceptible tSran otbGrs, but to determine just arhes the forces at work' will mani fest themselves is another matter. There is also something like agree ment concerning the causes of earth quake. It is conceded that a great many of these shocks are due to afrmses" set up in the crust of the arth. One group of experts attrib ute the stresses to the generation of vast quantities of steam by the leak age of water Into the heated inte rior; another to the shrlnkag3 of the tfArth In consequence of radiation; irtill another to the transfer of ma terial from one region to another, and a fourth to astronomical influ ence. Xo one of the first three ex planations of the internal strain vould afford much help In fixing the titan when an outbreak might be vxpect'ed, but the last would, If, It srere correct. The notion that a tide in the mol iec Interior of the globe Is raised i&y the sun and moon has long had a few adherents. Among them was a Frenchman, Alexis Perrey, who ucado a comparison between the jJates of 15,000 earthquakes and tho occasions when tho moon was In iluo right position to exert the strongest pull. Ills figures showed Til:t seemed to bo a trifling prepon derance (about 2" per cent) of fa Torablo lunar dates over tho unfa Torablo ones. On limiting his study la southern Italy he found a slightly sreator proportion. Unfortunately, Bowover, a compatriot of Perrey, De "hnnay by name, followed up tho In quiry so as to Includo 110,000 earth tfUAlLUg and found that tho excess of auoeks when tho moon was In tho right position over those when It jr.'ifl In tho wrong position "dwin dled awny to almost nothing," nc atwdtng to Major Diitlon, Prof. T.

God hides some Ideal in ev- ery human soul. At some time In our life we feel a trembling, fearful longing to do some good thing. Life finds its noblest spring of excellence In r this hidden Impulse to do our best. Selected. What's a woman? Ask a man, What d'you fancy he will sa'y? "Airs and graces, frills and laces. Never knows what she wants each day!" Why, then, gossip, tell me true, Why you woo her as you do? Ask a woman: What's a man? What d'you fancy she will say? "Swagg'rlng, swearing, overbear ing, Always wanting to have his way!" Say, then, gossip, if you can. Why you wed him horrid man! Gentle sir and sweetest madam, Would you know the reason true Why today you scorn each other And tomorrow bill and coo? Ask your parents Eve and Adam, They can tell, and so can you! ANOX. Breaking in a new servant girl at a house is almost a.a bad as a fire. As soon as you try to make a pro fit on your friends, you have no friends. In one respect a holiday is like a funeral: You can't get back to a working basis until you forget It. We don't want to knock any lau rels off Job's brow, but he never had to answer a telephone In all his life. In real life you cannot hope for the same success In thwarting the villain that comes to the hero la the play. If father has a favorite child, the mother and other children some times Use the pet as a means to work him. 1 An enthusiastic person Is seldom a favorite. Don't admire anything; always look as though you had bet ter at home. Americans have a way of worry ing a man into his grave by abusing him unjustly, and then telling, after his death, what a Good Man he was. If two men have a conversation today, they cannot agree tomorrow noon what thov said. A man should glvo a receipt for his conversation. Latest advices from Spokane, Wash., aro to tho effect that Billy Sunday's vocabulary Is still shocking peop!o who don't like tho way ho talks. When a man gives up a marriage engagement becauso tho. woman Is not a member of his church tho real facts are ho Is In lovo with another woman. A California exchange reports that the doctors nro puzzled about a girl ; In that city who has been "crying ( for n week." Some of tho folks who have tlmo to spare ought to let her have ono. Boforo a woman is married, she is half crazy about It, but nfter sho is married, she forgets nil about It, nnd goes to putting up Jelly, Is the observation of a Coos Bay woman who suyB sho knows. "What sort of an nftor-dinner speaker Is Judge Goss?" Dr. Dix ask ed Geo.

Smith, of Sanders. Ala., "the only remedy I use for the lungs is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. While of course I would treat other symp toms with different medicines, I have used this romedy many times in my medical practice and have yet failed to find a caso where It has not con trolled tho trouble. I have used it myself as has also my wife for coughs and colds repeatedly, and I mosc willingly and cheerfully recommend It as superior to any other cough remedy to my kuowledge."
