The mlll3 and factories all over the Ray are running, or making pre parations to open at once. The prospects are bright for the Southern Oregon District Fair be ing tho largest and most successful ever hold. Everybody on Coos Bay who has to work or wants to work is busy at good wages. The youngsters are in the midst of their vacation festivities; the sick are getting well; tho people refuse to die under any circumstances during this superb weather; tho stork is winging dally flights to this neighbor hood with a braw lot of handsome healthy new recruits to tho civic ranks; tho business world here is as free as ever of failures; trade might "be better and soon will be; the bay Is bristling with busy craft of all "kinds and the valley towns are lively and active nnd Inviting, and the weather is Ideal. Wo might go on Indefinitely with quotations of this sort, but these sug gestions are enough to convey our senso of satisfaction to tho outsider and wo agree to prove it all if ho or she comes to se us. It's all here, with more to come! THE READING AMERICAN. . The public school of Amorlca Is responsible for tho reading Ameri can. Ho Is everywhere, and up-to-date; his paper, his magazine, his llbrnry ,-ai-e simply Indispensable to him, while- the telegraph, wire and wire less, keep liim !n Um-Ai with the world and the current history of tho .day. It is ono of the best signs wo have of national stability and readiness. Great emergencies are met all over tho land with communal understand ing and appreciation that savo days and weeks of coaching and prepara tion, and drilling for action. Tho -country Is never asleep; tho Presi dent, tho Governor, tho Mayor, al ways find the people on tho Bpot when thoy are wanted for high pur poses, nnd thousands of them equip ped for leadership. No country In tho world has as many readers of tho daily news as tho United States; If there aro classes In this country, there Is a paper for each, and all are studied avidly; the nation Is never without a working knowledge of tho great events trans piring, or to transpire. From Coos Bay to tho keys of Florida and from tho St. Croix to San Diego It is tho same and the common school is nt tho bpttom of it. It is splendid equipment nnd the country nt largo appreciates It. BUSINESS ACTIVITY. Notwithstanding tho prevailing slugfilshness in business operations sonerally throughout tho country -during tho first hnlf of tho current year a marked Improvement has been Tioticeahlo during tho pabt two -months, and It Is tho concensus of opinion that from now on tho entlro country will experience a more nor mal and healthy growth as a result of tho recent business depression. Business In every lino Is already beginning to Improve, and this con dition necessarily means an advanco Jn tho prlco of ovory commodity In general use. For oxamplo: At tho present time- lumber Is selling for at least CO per cont less than It did n year and a half ago, but tho demand for this product has Increased to such an extent that a movement Is now HUBBY CARS T E Wife Sues For Divorce Because of His Objecting to Silk Stockings and Corsets. NEW YORK, Aug. 1. Because her husband was so jealous that he wouldn't let her wear funcy hosiery or plain corsets, and because of a whole lot of other things, pretty lit tle Mrs. Hattie Fuller Dupont, of 44 Fifth avenue, Brooklyn, had him arrested for alleged assault and abandonment, has sued him for abso lute divorce and has also sued her wealthy fathor-in-law, John Tyler Dupont, sr., of Seeley street, for dam ages of $25,000. All this domestic shipwreck is a sequel to a salt-sea-wave romance that started at Coney Island. While Hattie Fuller, 1C years old, was in bathing she met John Tyler Dupont, jr., who was one year older than she. On December 30, 1907, the couple were secretly married by a Jersey City clergyman. The bride gave her ago as IS, although she was really only 1G. Kept (ho Secret Slv Months. For six months young Mrs. Dupont stayed at her father's home, keeping the family in ignorance of her mar riage. Then the secret slipped out, and after a stormy scene or so and a reconciliation the young people began living together. The rest of the story is best told by the young plaintiff. "Within a year or so after our marriage it became apparent to me that I had made a mistake," said Mrs. Dupont. "My mother did not think that it was incumbent upon her to support us and frequently said so. Finally my husband and I started housekeeping. He became jealous of me to the point of being silly. One day I bought two pairs of pretty silk stockings. When my husband came home that night he told me that I must not wear them, and to make sure he took them away with him. "1 was a well-developed woman, and when I wore corsets my figure was naturally Improved. This made my husband angry, for he said that every man on the street would look at me when I passed. Deserted Her In Dnngor. "He engaged in various oc cupations and never made a success of any of them. In Barnhart's hall, Atlantic and Clinton avenues, my husband and Artie Quinn opened the first moving picture show at popular prices in Brooklyn. As an induce ment he offered every boy patron a pair of skates and a hockey stick. "The hall was crowded at the flrst performance. My husband sent for me and said that ho was In trouble A few hockey sticks were distributed uid then followed a riot. Every window in the front of the building was demolished. Tyler and Quinn jumped out of a back window and left mo to face the mob of angry youngsters. The police came and I was rescued. "Finally I went to Albany, where 1 have a married sister. A few days passed and then I received a telegram stating that my husband was dying and begging mo to come home at once. I didn't go. Then I received a lotter stating that he was going to commit sulcldo In the Morris chair In tho parlor. I replied "Please do not do it in the parlor; there Is room to die In tho kitchen." on foot among the large lumber dealers to advance tho price on build ing material and establish tho rates that provalled before what might be termed tho late Industrial vacation. This change In business conditions is very gratifying, and demonstrates to the world at largo the American spirit of progresslveness and their determination to overcome all ob stacles that aro detrimental to the welfare of the country. Even during the trying times just past, tho business interests of Coos Bay woro In no way affocted, and with tho advent of numerous enter prises In our territory wo should en tor upon tho greatest period of pros perity ovor known to this section. Wo aro now experiencing a healthy growth both In population and the volumo of business transacted. It, theroforo, stands us well In hand to proparo oursolves for this new era of prosperity and strive to make tho year 190S tho banner year In tho his tory of Coos Bay. Don't falter; con tlnuo tho Improvements already so auspiciously begun, and whon our work is completed wo can point with initio to the results accomplished and feel that wo havo labored In a good cause.

Tired of do ing roadwork at night with a bawling baby Hamilton Fries, of Stonetown, just above the hills of Wynockie, near Peterson, N. J., informed his wife, Etta, that she would have to choose between him and the youngster. Mrs. Fries took the baby, Hamilton took his hat and departed and now Mrs. Fries has taken steps to secure a di vorce. She asks that- Hamilton be compelled to support her and the cause of the trouble. They were married in 1901, not a great while'after Mrs. Fries had seen that her first husband, Caleb Ryer son, was properly tucked away be neath an imposing slab. Caleb and "Ham," as Fries is known to his friends, had been suitors for pretty Etta Bender's hand, but Caleb was the more convincing of tho two. "Ham" didn't decorate his dome with crape when Caleb cashed in. He sympathized with the widow and let It be known that there was room for two beneath his name. Mrs. Ryer son said she was fond of Fries and that settled It. She had a baby less than a year old when she removed the name of Ryerson from the front door. "Everything was lovely until that kid began to howl, which was every time he got a look at me," said Ham yesterday. "I didn't mind travelling with him in my cupola during the day time, but tho forced marches at night was what got my nanny. I'll bet I've covered 750,000 in the last few years. Talk about an endurance contest. It's too bad I didn't have a cyclometer on my leg." "Do you consider marriage a fail ure?" asked the reporter. "It's all right if they'd abolish the night drills, ' said Ham. -Look at the shape of my legs. I've been walking on my knees for the past six months." "It's Ham's own fault," Mrs. Fries is alleged to have told her friends. "Just as tho baby would be getting quiet Ham would come along and frighten the little angel." The case will be tried in a few days. Ham's trump card will be the exhibition of his bare shins marked like the Obelisk by colliding with rocking chairs and other furniture.
