Addkuss All Communications to COOS BAY DAILY TIMES tlanbfiVId Orejon THE FRUITS OF COOS. It is beginning to dawn very brightly upon the fruit growers of Coos Baj that this district has a very brilliant future among the famous fruit districts of Oregon. That the splendid prospect is due to the en terprise and intelligent advertising and expobitlon of the Marshfleld Chamber of Commerce, is a source of .gratification to those who contribut ed tho means to make that body, un der its enterprising president and un tiring and capable secretary, one of the most progressive and active in all tho west. It is not too much to .say that In one particular, the en couragement of the fruit Industry, the chamber of commerce is entitled to the ci edit of having added hun dreds of thousands of dollars to the true valuation of C003 County. Be ginning with the exploitation of the Graveiibtein apple, unsurpassed for flavor and beauty, and following with a full line of many varieties which equal the best of any section of the west, the Chamber of Commeice com pleted ltd magnificent worn in that direction in the year 1907, by an ex hibition in Portland which placed Coos Bay and Coos County high up in the estimation of all Oregon's ex perts. The latest move which the Marsh fleld Chamber of Commerce has ln aug.irat d is likely to be the best In that line. Tho Fruit Growers of Coob County are to bo organized and -will have an inspoctorappointed un der the fatato laws like the other fruit di3triclP, for tho protection of the good name of Coos as a fruit growing county this move Is necessary and will be a guarantee against the spread of tho moth or tho San Jose seal" It will also Insure the Intro duction of methods which have been serviceable in other localities In keep ing tho orchards and fruit up to a high standard. The fruit growers of Coos County may well be encouraged. The offort'i of the Chamber of Com meie lu.c brought to light tho fact that thousands of acres of land, gen erally regarded as of little value, are fully ns valuable for fruit growing as thoso of Lood River, tho Yakima and Wena tehee vallcjs und that Coos Bay and Coim County aro so located that the iMitup product of tho orchards, no mat or how great, can be market ed ovoiy year.

When, In her fright, sho quickly shut the lid, however, ono remained, hope; and hope, too, has been there ever since. When you relax enough to set your troubles flying, don't forget to close the cover quickly enought to keep hope. There Isn't much left when that Is gone. No matter what you have done, no matter what you have been, yes terday. There Is today, and after that tomorrow. Pick yourself up and steer yourself a little more carefully next time through the stumbling places. Every man is the king of hinv self, every woman her own queen No one can dethrone them but them selves. And they can only dethrone themselves when they admit that they are. "down and out." No one, old or young, no matter how far beneath the surface they have sunk, no matter how many times they have been submerged in sorrow, pain or wrong, is lost until they themselves close their eyes to the last star of hope that eternally shines above them. Don't lose your grip. OPPORTUNITY Everybody has read the famous short poem by the late Senator In galls, of Kansas, entitled "Opportun ity." But we reprint it once more, to wit: Master of human destinies am I! Fame, love and fortune on my foot steps wait. Cities and fields I walk; I penetrate Deserts and seas remote, and passing by Hovel and mart and palace, soon or late, I knock unbidden once at every gate! If sleeping wake; if feasting, rise before I turn away. It is the hour of fate, And they who follow reach to every state Mortals desire, and conquer every foe Save death; but those who doubt or hesitate, Condemned to failure, pains, and woe, i answer not and I return, no more. We have reprinted this piece for the purpose of following it with an other, quite as striking in expression but more healthy In tone, by Walter Malone, to which a friend has called our attention. Here it is: They do mo wrong who say I come no more, When once I knock and fail to find you in; For every day I stand outside your door And bid you wake, and rise to fight and win. Wail not for perished chances passed away, Weep not for golden ages on the wane! Each night I burn tho records of the day At sunrise every soul Is born again. ,Vhen down in mire, wring not your hands and weep, I lend my arm to all who say "I can." No shame-faced outcast over sank bo deep But yet might rise and be a man again. Art thou a mourner? Rise thee from thy bpoll. Art thou a sinner? Sins may bo forgiven. Each morning gives theo wings to fleo from Hell, Each night a star to guido thy feet to Heaven. The author of theso last verses Is n native of Mississippi, born forty years ago. Ho now is a habitant of literary Bohemia and stage-land In New York, and has done much work oi notlccablo merit. Oregonian.

Some little while ago a piano deal er who did somo scribbling at odd moments, visited a jail in order to takes notes from an article on prison life for his local paper. On return ing homo he described tho horrors ho had seen, and his description made a deep impression on the mind of his little daughter. Tho piano man and his offspring, a week later, wore in a train together, which stopped near a gloomy building. A man asked: "What place Is that?" "Tho county jail," answered an other promptly.
