THE JETTY DISASTER.

There is not a home in all Astoria
nor Clatsop county, that does not
send forth its message of sympathy to
the stricken families upon whom the
weight OF sorrow cast by the jetty
accident of Wednesday, falls.
Neither this city nor county has yet
outgrown the intimacy that dwells in
the unmetropolitan community; we
know and feel and suffer one with
the other down here, because OF the
nearness of our relations and the in
terchangeable smpathies incident to
that kindly familiarity. 1t is all right
to; and while we may long for the
larger sphere and the broader activi-
ties, we know how to prize the ready
and understandable concert of COM
passion that exists here, and will re-
gret the day that diminishes, or dis
lodges it.
Again, the Morning Astorian,
speaking for the whole county, de-
clares the sorrow that is universally
felt for the unhappy families of
Jacob C. Lehman and Martin Carl
son, of Hammond.

zone Touch of Nature Makes the

When a rooster finds big fat
worm he calls all the hens in the
farm yard to come and share it. A
similar trait of human nature is to
be observed when man discovers
something exceptionally good-he
wants all his friends and neighbors
to share the benefits Of his discovery.
This is the touch of nature that
makes the whole world kin. This
explains why people who have been
cured by Chamberlain's Cough Rem

comprehensive of the graces, virtues

is instinct with light and promise and
