GREAT TRADE EflA COMING
IN SOME of tho weekly trado re
viows it is Haiti that thcro has
been no Blackening of tho nd
vanco that seems to bo heading to
tho greatest business development
In tho history of this country.
"In splto of tho rapidity of tho
movomont," snys Dun's, "thero Is
no Blackening of tho advance that
foreshadows tho greatest commer
cial dovolopmont in tho history of
tho country. Following many
months of gradual recovery and
adjustment to now conditions, prog
gresB has como with such a rush
' that reaction Is feared In somo quar
ters; yet tho economic position
steadily gains In strength and sel
dom, If over, has tho situation bo
favored continued expansion. Dusl
nuHH is no iongor wholly dopondont
upon tho war dumands; tho burnpor
crops, tho widespread Increnso in
production, In tho working forco,
nnd In tho powor of tho people to
purchase, having established tho
IhibIs for nn era of unexampled
prosporlty.
"Thero is, moreover, tho further
nnd highly significant influence, of
nbundant supplies of money for nil
logitlmnto purposes, whllo tho ar
rangements for Bupplomontnry for
eign credits augur well for tho
mnlutonauco -of tho phenomenal
jnovomontB in ovorsen commerce.
Just how fully trado and industry
havo responded to tho umisual nrray
of Btlmulutlng factorB Is clearly re
flected in tho statistical gauges
that alwayfl toll which way tho
current Ih flowing. Somo of those,
such as tho figures of morchnn
dlso exports, pig iron output, bank
olnnrlngs nnd railroad earnings,
bring to light achievements without
precedent, and to tho list of ro
nmrknblo attainments havo bcon
added thoso of unfilled steel ton
nage nnd commodity prlcos."
THE STAC3E COACH
(Tho Inst stage conch has made Jtst
final trip on tho old C003 Day wagon
rond.)
Tarnished and battered nnd old,
Heartlessly hidden nwny
Lett to tho moth nnd tho .mold,
Durknoss nnd dust and decay
This was tho prldo of its day",
Now all Its glory is o'er
Faded and vanished for age;
Gone nro the driver and fourt
How should its story be told
What shall a song1 of it say?
Once it was brilliant ns gold,
Onco it wns glided and gay,
Fine In Its festal array,
Many tho brldo that it bore,
Now arc they wrinkled nnd gray;
Gone are! the driver nnd four.
Wo do not know much but wo do
know that minding your own busi
ness will never become rt great pas
time on Coos Uny.
FACT
This Is tho truth I'm tolling you
It always makes us cubs
To full in with a fellow who
Tries to fall out with us.1
'Long through thu heat and cold.
Ever from May until May,
Over tho highway it rolled,
Tlmo has now made it his prey
Never n stntely dlsplny
Novor a dash ns of yore,
Novor a swing or n sway;
Gono nro tho driver nnd fourl
Over now roads that men lay
Hush wo wjth chug and roar
Only sweet momorles stay;
Gone aro tho driver, and fourl
ANON

Chor up! If It wasn't
for tho wet weather thcro
wouldn't bo any hay to make
Whllo the sun shines.
Thero nro n lot of beautiful things
In tho Ulblc. Hut a man can't ro-

on n tack when he Is in his bare
feet.

An optimist Is a man who
doesn't enro n dnm what
happens as long ns It docs-
n't happen to him.
A Coos liny woinnn likes to carry
n watch so she can toll how Into sho
is.
You don't have to bo wealthy to
be n Philanthropist. Any old
tlmo that you pat a kid on tho head
or smile at a baby In tho arms of a
weary mother, or tell a poor con
fluuiptlvd that he Is looking flno, or
slip a dime to n cripple, or solid n
'few flowers to the hospital, or 1;Ibs
your wife, you couldn't do moro it
you had a hundred million dollars.
Every Coos Ray wlfo says to every
Coos Day husband after flvo yenrs
of married life. "Yes, you UBcd to
wait on nio and you couldn't do
enough for mo; but now half. tho
tlmo you don't know I'm on earth."
ORRIIILE
This is a mighty cheesy talo
So plcaso propnro to duck it;
A man will be a llttlo palo
Heforo ho kicks tho bucket.
Thero Isn't much class to n mnn
with a crimson bonk; who laughs nt
a girl becauso sho has put too much
Tho Coos Hay mnn who tolls youiialut on her cheeks.
