MALONEY OAX E. MALOXEY Editor and Pub. News Editor ROOSEVELT'S PIGSKIX LIBRARY. THE establishing of the new Marshfield public library soon to bo opened gives additional interest to the consideration of Roosevelt's pigskin library, so-called because the books were bound In pigskin. He has just been writing about this library, consisting of near ly 100 books, and it is not only in teresting but helpful to know on what meat his mind fed while his stomach was feasting on broiled ante lope. The Bible, of course, and such standard authors as Bacon, Cnrlyle, Dante, Homer and Shapespeare were read. But there was lighter reading, too, as "Alice in Wonderland," "Tar tarln of Tarascon" and "The Soul's Inheritance." Such variety is suggestive. Tho blending of lighter and of more solid literaturo shows appreciation of the mind's need for variety in its intellec tual diet. The man who reads only the great books, the classics of all nges, becomes heavy; but the woman who reads only "the best sellers" be comes a mental featherweight, If she does not, indeed, lose her mind. Tho breadth and the variety of Mr. Roosevelt's reading are among the reasons for his success In life. Ho touches life through literature at a thousand points, aud through these he comes into-sympathetic touch with a hundred sorts and conditions of men. From contemporary novels he has reached such an understanding of real people on Kansas ranches and In Chicngo stockyards as ho could havo gained from no other source; and from history, as Parkman's ac ' count of the French In America, ho has acquired part of tho political sagacity that qualified him to cope with present-day problems of states manship. If this man of action craves the In tellectual lifo so keenly that he lugs a library into African, wilds; If he hungers so far for literature that ho reads bcsldo tho trophies of his rlflo, thon thero Is no excuse for men of business and homo-making mothers assorting that they havo no time to read. Whero thoro's a will, there's a way. If wo really wish to read, wo will read. 5,0 M, Berthelo , member of the ln 'iic of France, made fats from the t j-Unal elements. Fi cher took the iiiue elements, hdrcgen, oxygen and carbon, and from them produced su ;,ar exactly like that made from su gar beets. Berthelot said, before he died, that the 'test tube would some day sup plant tho wheat stalk, and' bread, like indigo, be made from factories with large laboratories. Victor Mayer, tho celebrated German chemist, ex pressed the belief that in the near future science will be able to teach us' how to make the fiber of wood the source of human food. Today man accepts as" possible al most any prediction of what we shall be able to do. What were only fan ciful dreams a few, years ago have become realities on every side. Car riages do run without horses, tho human voice actually travels hun dreds of miles without any connec tion, and men do fly without wings. What modern civilization has lost as compared to civilization of the an cients in the way of art and culture It seems to bo gaining in materialis tic things. QUESTION OF THE DAY. The Eugene Guard says; "Louis W. Hill says his interests will build a railroad across Oregon. Will it cross the McKenzie divide and term inate on Coos Bay?" , vwo A 4 WITH THE TOAST AND TEA 040" ? XEWS OF COQUILLE. Events at Coos County Seat as Told By tho Herald. A. M. Snyder, of Myrtle Point, was In Coqullle Saturday and Informed us that his wife, who underwent an op eration for appendicitis at Portland, a short time ago, Is rapidly recover ing, and expects to be able to return home In about two weeks. Mrs. Spalding has undergone an operation at Mercy hospital and it is now hoped the worst is over and she will be home with the family soon. Mr. Spalding and the children have returned home and will soon go down to the homestead to do some planting. J. F. Lee was up from RIverton Monday, and Is now able to get about with tho aid of a stick' Instead of crutches. He Is rapidly recovering from his fall. , H. S. Miller, who will be remem bered by many of our citlziens, hav ing visited this place some twenty years or more ago, was in town a day or so last week, accompanying his sister, Mrs. M. VanVolkenberg, her son Jack and daughters, the Misses Blanch and Vivian, who were In at tendance at Circuit court. and we hope will soon be nursed to her usual good health. Mrs. Chas. Skeels has gone to Eu gene as a delegate to tho grand lodge of Rebekahs to be held thero this week. She will visit her father, W. H. Nosier, at Eugene, and Mr. and Mrs. G. II.

DOWN THE VALLEY. I. There isn't a rose, where the world's roses be, That my dim eyes, a dreamin', in sunshine can see; There isn't a daisy that ever I mark As I hobble away In the Dark In the Dark! Life Is a -readtn' this old lesson still; "Down in the valley, from up on the hill!" II. "Down in the valley!" But 'still it's the way Tho world's been goin' since God made the day! But we that are feelln' the dark shad ow's chill, Must fear not the valley, who once knew the hill! "Down in the" valley!" old travelers wo go; Hide us In daisies, an' shroud us in snow! Frank L. Stanton. Mrs. Alfred Johnson, Jr., returned the last of the week from a visit with her brother, EuVBoyrie, and family of Portland. Prof. F. S. Bunch, of Gravel Ford, started recently for Portland where he will attend a meeting of the Sev enth Day Adventlst church. He was accompanied by his mother, who spent several weeks In town lately with her daughter, Mrs. Watkins. A clothespin anchor. is a kind of sheet SCIENCE MAKES WONDERFUL ADVANCES. WE. CASTLE, a Harvard pro fessor, reports that by sclen 0 tlflc breeding ho has recent ly produced bluo rabbits and a wholo nssortniont of oddly colored mic rats and cats These surprising re sults lead him to claim that If de sired ho can create now races of animals. This opens a new field for tho work of tho scientist. Darwin spent his wholo life In working out a theory to explain tho evolution by which through thousands of centuries, he hold, various animals, chief anions which !b ninn, havo developed to tho present form and conditions. This New England scientist announces a plan whoroby ho thinks ho will be able to undo all 'the work of nnturo through the centuries. If scientists had not done so many sin prising aud startling things in various fields of scloutlflc woik, tho claim would Beem highly rldiouloiu, but in othor lines results havo been truly wonderful. Only a few years Some men are so cautious they are always waiting to begin. How a woman does enjoy tired, if It is from shopping. being Our love for other people's money 13 also the root of much evil. Many a father is secretly glad that his son doesn't believe In heredity. A man can have most of his vices overlooked by inheriting a fortune. Nobody ho wants can appreciate how much :i thing till he can't got it. No man is so smart that he can do more for himself than good luck can- Yet there is always a fighting chance against marriage being a fail ure. Many attempt liars. a trial seems to be but an to prove all the witnesses The sermon never seems long to tho woman wearing a now hat to church. Two women will wrestle hard for tho first fall out of another's reputation. Ropeatlng the constitution In a low cut vest doesn't make a present-day statesman. Somo Coos Bay men seem to have a grudge against themselves and we dou't blamo them. A Coos Bay man wants to buy his ticket for henon with lots of stop over privilege. Wo fwl sorry for a man who hasn't sense enough to make use of his good judgment. Mrs. Herbert Haynes, of the Bay side, went to Bandon Monday to see her sister, Mrs. G. R. Hancock, after visiting with her mother, Mrs. V. L. Arrlngton, of Myrtle Point, a few days. J. B. Moomaw who sustained a badly hurt knee while handling freight as a deckhand on the steamer Dispatch last week, is on deck again, but not able to do a great deal of heavy work. NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS.
