MOVING BALLAD

All, distinctly remember. it was almost done
! s(September),
And the moving van was coming, coming
slowly to the hat;
Vainly had sought to borrow-every friend
expressed his sorrow, s51
Saying, ''Well, perhaps tomorrow" And the
head beneath my hat
Wasn't swelled up much by that.
Then heard q sound Of smashing-heard "a
sound Of dishes crashing. "a
Thru the halls large men were dashing with
my tables and my chairs. IS
And the china, never stopping, kept on dropping
~ dropping, dropping,
And my almost-bought piano slid the bases
down the stairs,
While the pictures fell in pairs.
FierceIy toward the mover turning, every nerve
s. within me burning, 81
{ mot one copper cent you're earning was
my mean, sarcastic shot; So
And the mover never wiggled but most scofn
fully he giggled,
Saying, "You can talk till morning, but you'll
hand me, like as not, S.
Thirty dollars-on the spot"
All, distinctly remember, it was almost don,
(September),
And today my Mission furniture is almos
'ts done as well;
And my heart is ! slowly breaking, and M
nerves are weakly shaking.
Oh, this dreadful fat-forsaking; what sure
&. thing game of shell;
What tiresome tale to tell.

put down for membership. 1t is as
well to have outside interests when

At this remark / stalked out of the
room and closed the door with a deal Of
energy.
My conscience pricked me somewhat,
termiEed to teach Ethel salutary
lesson.
On entering the club I met fat
selfish bachelor. / am now of the opin-
ion that all bachelors are selfish.
Choking rather hippy, Carlton,0 he
cried. "Doesn't double harness suit

I refrained from kicking the ami
mated barrel, and passed into the bill
lizard room. After missing a couple Of
easy cannons and nearly slicing a piece
off the cloth, I threw the whole busi-
ness up in disgust and returned home.
I wondered how Ethel was enjoying
herself at her club. T thought would
just look in her room to make sure
that she had gone. The door was open,
and I entered. There was Ethel, and as

some cushions. Her eyes were very

"They keep very good hours at your
club,' said. =
ooh, I didn't 90 after all; it was
too much trouble to change my things.
Did you enjoy yourself9'' she asked
with formal politeness.
"No, didn ~
1T trust your capacity for enjoyment
has not entirely deserted you.'
con the contrary, it has been greatly
increased. But prefer mixed club. /"
"You might have saved me that re-
mark said Ethel. "Tho you may
not find satisfaction in the company Of
your own wife, you might at least re-
frain from Boosting to her Of your pre-
objection. for the company of other
women.' -"
I went over to Ethel and put my
arms around her.
1T repeat, prefer mixed club. A
club like this, where I can always meet
the prettiest.and most reasonable wom-
on in the world-the woman I love-
II, too, think I like this kind Of
club best,' said Ethel, as she held her
face up to be kissed.-London Mail.

SOCIETY IN OREGON

A young Corvallis girl is charming,
but, like a great many other charming
people, she is poor. She never has more
than two evening gowns in a season,
and the ruin of one of them is always
serious matter to her. She went to
a little dancing party last week, and
she wore brand new white frock.
During the evening great, big, red.
faced, perspiring man came in and
asked her to dance. He wore no
gloves. She looked at his well-mean:;
ing. but moist hands despairingly and
thought of the immaculate back Of her
waist. She hesitated bit, and then
she said with winning smile:
."tOf course I will dance with you,
but if you don't mind, won't you
please use your handkerchief"
The man looked at her blankly a mo-
ment or two. Then a light broke over
his face.
=. "Why, certainly he said.
And he pulled out handkerchief and
blew his nose.

NUMBERING IN SIAM

Washington, D. C.-Those lumbermen
who have for years been engaged in
the business of denuding the forests of
the northwest have doubtless had their
troubles. and have perhaps thought that
never was such an enterprise so
plagued, yet if the same gents were. to
engage in the same business in some
come to think after all the woods Of
Michigan, or Wisconsin, or Minnesota
were pretty near a paradise for their
particular line Of depreciation. Any
how it makes one think so to read Of
the trials to which the lumbermen Of
Siam are subjected. ~ <rs
The business in that enlightened
kingdom has been farmed out by the
king to four corporations, four big ones,
and they are not doing a thing to the
standing timber. But all the same they
obstacles they find in the way. There
are three British firms in it and one
Danish one, and they all sing the same
song-robbers-can't keep an elephant
on the place. It seems that instead Of log
cling roads and that sort of rigging for
the handling of logs they use elephants,
which do to the logs whatever the lum-
bermen want done, from piling to car
rying to distance. But the natives,
who have a singular notion that the
timber really belongs to them, appear
to be taking revenge for the spoliation
of property they claim, and are doing
it by Juggling off the. elephants belong
ing to the people who are doing the
logging.
Now an elephant would appear to be
about as handy for a. thief to get away
with as house and lot or a bad repu-
tation, but the Siamese do it to de-
struotive degree and what is more it is
rare to recover one Of the animals, once
it falls into the hands of the folk who
claim first ownership Of the timber
| lands. Last year they got away with
more than $4,000 worth Of elephants,
and thereby crippled the numbering op.
erations like Sam Hill. The British
government has been appealed to for
protection and it will be given if it is
found possible for it's authority to spene.
trate to the place where the outrage
takes place, which is considered some
What doubtful.

1T cannot speak Of Daniel O'Day
without emotion" said one Of his as
sociates high in the Standard Oil COM
pany. FThere never was Drawer,
truer man to work with. He was mas
ter of his business, master Of resources
and one always felt that at the call
of duty or the behest of friendship he
would cross the continent at an hour g
notice. This quality always made him
a picturesque figure. He was cavalier
of the oil fields.''
Of his many benevolences, tales with
out number are told, evidencing his
mother wit as we'll as the universally
Of his giving. One recalled by friend
seems worth telling:
Mr.. O'Day was a Catholic and the
friend was Protestant. The latter
finding Daniel O'Day's name down
for humping subscription to a Bap:
fist charity, asked him how he could
square himself with the pope. O'Day
| assuming his quizzical expression, said:
"Well, the next world, maybe, is not

and me, that Baptist subscription was 9
