Bandon, Or., July 12. Yesterday aft
ernoon, as scheduled, Dr. B. K. Leach,
editor of the small paper here, who was
ordered out of town by a committee of
citizens because he had lent editorial
support to the Industrial Workers, of
the World, who are reported to be pro-
paring to invade Bandon, waa put
aboard the steamer Coquille and ac
companied by a committee of Bandon
business men, forwarded to Coquille.
There were no sympathizers to ob

and he was a sorry figure, alone and
friendless. Practically the entire citi

parture and the steamer Favorite, also
loaded with business men, accompanied

Colonel Mulhall's 'patriotic" story
of the lobbying feats of the National
Association of Manufacturers reduces
that association to the infinitesimnlly
absurd. His statement that he only
spent $20,000 a yeaf for ten years in
buying up senators, representatives
and Btate leaders is an astounding rev
elation of amateurism. The association
should have sent him to school to John
P. Archbold years ago.
Mr. Archbold could have taught hun
something of real values. Was it not
Foraker who badly needed $16,000 in
one year and got it! That was the
way to do it, so long as you do not
write letters about it and carefully
preserve the cofiies for future use of
amused editors and investigation com
mittees. Colonel Mulhall must have been a pa
thetic figure, going about buying up
page boys and janitors. Mr. Archbold'
could have told him that he could not
influence an Indiana congressman
with six cocktails for any usoful, im
mediate purpose. Mr. Archbold could
have explained to him tho futility of
luring senators into five and ten-cent
stores in dazzling efforts at tompta
tion. No wonder he was discharged.
Take a .big, long telescope: look
through the wrong end of it at the
Standard Oil Company, and you will
see the Notional Association of Man
ufacturers. That is about the gist of
Colonel Mulhall's "confession." The
colonel himself looking through the
wrong end of tho telescope, would not
be visible to the humnn eye.
But one cannot help sympathizing
with the colonel in his efforts, if it is
true that he is really being sued for
$5000 for only half of his "confes
sion." Although the narrative deals mostly

Willie Ritchie grinned Friday when told
that Joe Rivers, in explaining his de
feat to his friends claimed that some
thing went wrong with him during the
fight.
"If anything went wrong with Riv
ers," said Ritchie, "it was due solely
to my right fist. As for his claim that
he can beat me, nothing would suit me
bettor than to fight him every day in
the week, and I would not ask 18,000,
either."
Behold him now, an old and hopeless
wreck,
Who labors there with anguish on
his mush,
And stands each youthful Cub upon his
neck
And makea them look like rummiet
from the bush.
And as we watch him make them look
like dubs
We grieve because his lot in life is
tough.
They canned him when a member of
the Cubs.
The poor old cripple wasn't good
enough.

PAS8IN0 OF FAELOB.
With the passing of the "parlor,"
the American housewife has been
brought up against a new situation.
And the "parlor" seems to be a thing
of the past. In the house with preten
sions to comfort and homeliness tho
room which takes its place is called
the living room; sometimes it is called
the drawing room, more after the fash
ion of England, although it is a simple
room where the family and guests fore
gathor from morning to night. The
only objection to the passing of the
parlor is that nowadays in many houses
there is no small room always in order
where guests may be received. The
idea of receiving them in the family
living room is good in many ways; but
a certain desire for privacy makes it
unpleasant to receive some persons in
the room which is the very nucleus of
the family's life.
BY DOBOTHY DIX.
A poor, foolish woman has written
me a letter about a great reform that
she wants to see inaugurated. She pro
poses to abolish age by denying that
any such thing exists.
She says that the lives of many wo
men are made wretched bv the thought
of growing old, and that thousands of
women ruin their health and bring on
nsanity by worrying over their age.
To prevent this (jatastrophe she would
have a law passed preventing the pa
pers publishing anything about age, and
forbidding people to ask each other
how old they are, or to speak of age
in any manner whatever. In fact, she
would make age the one taboo subject
in the world, and she thinks that the
result would be that everybody would
be young and happy and kittenish.
I'm sorry that I can't undertake to
push my correspondent's reform along,
but I can think of nothing more horri
ble than a world in which everybody
was young and foolish, or aping the
manners and the appearance of youth.
It would be like a picture without any
softening shadows, like music without
any minor chord in it, like a day that
was all garish noon without any pur
ple haze at twilight.
It takes age to ripen humanity, to
give it flavor and sweetness, just as
much as it does wine, and the Bocioty
of the intelligent man or woman of 50
or 60, who has seen and known life,
Is as much superior to that of the boy
and girl of eighteen or twenty as the
vintage of 1863 is to that of 1912.
Naturally, all of us dosire to keep
young in the sense of keeping our
bodies vigorous and our minds alert,
but, barring that, what have we to
foar from the years? Why should we
so dread tho coming of aget Especial
ly why should women worry about
growing old until they reach the point
of distraction, as my correspondent
avers that they dot
If a woman has been a raving, tear
ing beauty, we can understand her
agony at age robbing her complexion
of its fairness, her hair of its luster,
her oyos of their brightness.
But not one woman in a thousand is
a living picture, and it is an actual
fact that the great majority of women
are bottor looking as middle-aged ma
trons than they were as Klrls. Often
and often ago is tho sculptor that
chisels rough features into syrnmotry
or gray hairs soften a hard faco into
comeliness, and many times just tho
fere expression of goodness on an old
woman '8 countenance gives her a beau
ty that her youth never knew. It's the
soul that wo seo as pooplo grow, old,
whilo it's only the flesh we behold in
their youth.
As for being interesting, certainly
all tho advantage goes with age. Near
ly every young girl is a bore to talk
to. She haB no conversation worth lis
tening to, because she has not had time
to read anything, or see anything, or
havo any experience of life. You can
amuse yourself for an hour playing
with her as yon would with a kitten
with a ball, but after, heaven help
PBEY OF INSECTS ABE
DESCRIBED BRIEFLY HEBE.
That the sting of tho wasp which
punctures the nerve centers of a cap
tured caterpillar or spider usually para
lyzes the creatures into helplessness
rather than kills it, is woll known. The
victim remains alive in the burrow or
cell in which the wasp stores its food
for the larvae which will emerge from
the egg laid in the same cell. Therefore
the newly hatched grub finds ready a
provision of living meat instead of de
cayed carrion.
That "wizard" among entomologists,
the venerable Fabre, haB discovered a
similar yet even more extraordinary
fact, in the history of the glow worm
beetle (Lampyris); namely, that it an
aesthetizes the prey upon which it it
self feeds, so that it may consume it
nt leisure, and predigested. This bee
tie, whoso brilliant phosphorescence at
tracts the eye in the dusk of summer
evenings, habitually hunts and seizes
upon a certain small snail in order to
eat it. The curious thing is that the
beetle anaestheizes the mollusk at the
first attack, preventing it from escap
ing by withdrawing to safety doep
within its shell. Upon finding tho snail
tho beetle dashes forward, and thrust
ing out its sharp, curved mandibles,
repeatedly stabs the side of tho body
of its prey. After a few punctures the
snail becomes insensiblo and remains in
that deadened state for three or four
hours a time more than sufficient for
the beetle to complete its meal. Inde
pendent
yon if yon have to depend on her for
companionship!
On the other. hand, practically every
middle-aged woman is interesting be
cause, no matter how stupid she is,
something strange1 and thrilling has
happened to her. She has had some ex
perience unique to herself. She has
touched the great problem of human
existence at some new angle. She has
taken her part in the tragedy' or com
edy of life, and has at least one story
of absorbing interest to tell.
Age also means to the average woman
the playtime of life, and in this coun
try it generally brings with it com
forts and - luxuries. The early years
of most American married women are
strenuous ones. They are busy bringing
up their children and working and
economizing; trying to help their hus
bands get a Btart in the world, but
by the time they are fifty years old
their task is done, and they are ready .
to spend the balance of their lives en
joying the fruits of their labor.
Look over the middle-aged women
at any matinee or any woman's club
gatnenng and you Bee about as com- .
fortablp, well-fed, well drossed, hap
py and satisfied looking a set of peo
ple as you will find anywhere on
earth.
They are women enjoying tho fat
years after they have passed through
the lean years. Yon will find mora
middle-aged women riding in automo
biles than you will young ones. You
will see more middle-aged women than
young ones at the theater; you will
meet more middle-aged women than
young oneB when you travel. And this
is as it should be. The young women
are at tho worktime of life. The middle-aged
ones have done their day's
labor and are taking their ease. They
are at tho best time of life, and if
they are worrying any about thoir lot
they certainly don 't show it.
There was a time when age had
terrors for the woman who did not
marry and when to be an old maid
waa to be the butt of ridicule or fools
That timo has passed. Instead of be
ing an object of pity or scorn, the old
maid is the subject of envy and admir
ation. She has her place in the world,
her interests in life, hor mission to
humanity, and all that age brings her
is the bon of greater freedom and of
wider liberty than iB possible to the
young girl.
Thore was never a timo in tho
world's history when ago meant as
little to women as it does now, and
that they appreciate this Is shown by
the fact that yon seldom hear tho sub.
ject discussed, or soo a woman who
objects to telling how old she is. There,
are so ninny moro things of interest
now than the fountain of porpetunl
youth that we've ceased to hunt for it.
At any rate, we are all wise emiogh
to know that nothing stops the clock.
It goes on ticking off birthdays Wheth
er we lio about them or not, and tho
only thing to do is to mako the best
of it. Time is only an enemy to wo

Olrls of seventeen are not .as a
rule, given to serious thought. Even
marriage at sixteen soldom awakens
tho real woman in a yeax,
But there are rare exceptions.
Such an exception has been found ia.
a young wife of seventeen, who is sud
denly aware that she is to becomo a
mother in four months time.
Now sho is filled with awe and with
anxiety! She says: "I have always
had an idoal of exorting a good influ
ence over an unborn child; and now I
am distressed to think that all theso
months have passed without any con
scious effort on my part. I have played
ball, swum and indulged in othc- ath
letics according to my regular custom.
And in leisure moments I have mad
Milton and Shakespeare and Burns.
'I am splendidly well, but I am
most anxious lest I have done things
t ought not to do, and left undone
other things at this critical time.
'What can I do for the next few
months to bonefit my unborn child?"
The very best thing this young
mother oxpectant can do is to exorcise
with moderation, rest when she feels
like It, oat and drink with moderation
and wisdom, and be happy and trust
Uod.
Motherhood is the most natural thing
in the world for women who aro nor
mal and in good health.
It often produces a normal healthful
condition for those who are not woll.
Nature never intended any woman to
utterly change her mode; of lifo when
expecting a child, if her modo- of life
had been a reasonable and sensible one
previously.
Outdoor lifo and athletics are both
reasonable and sensible, and miiro
harhi would havo resulted to both moth
er and child by giving them up sud-
lenly and taking too great concern
about a porfoctly natural condition
than by continuing to indulgo In theso
pastimes as long as this young woman
did.
No doubt tho coming child will be
strong in body, with excellent lung
power.
And Its coming into this plane of
existence will not be attended with any
abnormal difficulties.
We must remember that the Iudiua ,
woman rideB her horse and performa
all sortB of laborous tasks up to the
very hour of her delivery.
The wife of an army officer told th
writer of frequently seeing such women
drop out of lino for a few hours and re
turn to the tribe later with tho new
born child wrapped in a blanket.
All women who live an outdoor life
and who exercise in the opon air have
less complications in maternity than
those reared under hothouse conditions.
This young mother of seventeen, who
takes such a serious view of her re
sponsibility, is certain to bring a
strong, beautiful child into tho world,
and equally sure of guiding it into a
splendid maturity.
She need only fill her mind with love
thoughts and with faith in God, and
trust in the unseen powers which gov
ern this parth, to have all go woll with
her.
In Qod's great universe there are
guardian angels provided for every
mortal, and in such degree as we love
and reverence these angels, and as we
live worthy of them, do' thoy guide
ami help us In our difficult hours.
If we refuse to believe In them, or
continually think and talk and act in
a way to pain them, we alienate them
and deprive them of their power to
help us.
About the expectant mother aro
bands of shining ones, and If she will
rest happy in the thought of thoir pro
tection and regard thorn as messengers
and emissaries from Ood himself, great
strength and peace and happinoss will
come to her.
And great blessings upon her child.
For of such aro the kingdom of
heaven.
Rome day, also, thero will be less of
