If those dry bones that constitute the most beautiful city on the coast-Ta- coma-don't watch out they will awake some morning to find themselves real news center.

It was 10 recover the child that Mrs. Booth set out 10 find their pair and located them aJ hotel in this beautiful city O; Tacoms, She learn ed that her husband was away at work and walked into the room where was her former friend with the little one,
 The former friend, seeing Mrs. Booth, and meuberinG their former friendship, began to cry noisily-the story calls it weeping bitterly" Mrs. Booth took the chhd without protest from her former friend,
 While waiting at the miserable old station down on Pacific avenue lt oc- cured to Mrs, Booth that she ought not to go back 70 Idaho without telling her husband what she thought of him, and so she called him up by phone.

A LAMENT

Swiiter far than summers flight, Swifter far than youths delight, Swiiter far than happy night;
 Art thou come and gone; As ths earth when leaves are dead, As the night when sleep Is sped, As the heart when joy is fled,
 I am left alone, alone. The swallow, summer, comes again; The owlet, night, resues her relgn; But the wild swan, youth, Is iain
 To fly with thee, false as thou.s Fly heart each day desires the morrow Sleep itself Is turned to sorrow Yainly would my winter borrow
 Sunny leaves from any bough. Lilies for bridal bed, Roses for a matron's head, Yiolets for a maiden dead
 Pansies let my flowers be; On the living grave I bear, Scatter them without tear, Let no friend, however dear,
 Waste one hope, one fear for me.

 while the lover waited iu Tacoma, just
 because the Western Union did not de- liver the message, although she had advised the office of her address. The
 lover, tired of waiting, was stricken with the belief that she was taithless and went bacS to his California home. Nothing she can say will change this opinion and, so, having tried and failed, the unhappy woman has brought suit against the telegraph company for damages iu the sum of El9,99O.

And while awaiting in this same rail- road station for a train to carry her back to school. newspaper reporter proposed to a young girl who had been home for the Christmas holidays, that they change direction and go down the Sou1d and get married. She consented and the folks were appraised from Bel liugham that their daughter, whom they thought they had sent away to school, was now a married woman.
