them if it costs me my job." ;

TRADE REPORT.
Richmond, Va., July 17. Brad
street's today said: v i',::.
The general tend of the trade is
toward Improvement, though the
sales in most lines continue below
the average, ' however this is partly
attributed to the usual between sea
son quietness. Continued hot weath
er has stimulated sales in seasonable
wearing apparel. Abundant rains
have greatly improved all growing
crops, particularly corn. - The tobac
co crop in both the light and sun
cured belts will be short because of
the previous drought. The apple
Icvod is in good condition and.grow-
L. nnllntnnfn a full fro)t&iln a .
tpn is in unusually good condition
and the peanut crop bids fair to be
a full one. Retail trade is fair but
collections continue slow.

" - San Francisco, "July 17. Charg
ing him with extreme cruelty, Mrs.
Nellie Morse will try to get a divorce

takes Mrs. Morse's pleadings have
not yet shown. In asking for all

her husband averages collections of
6 to S 8 daily and has a comfortable
bank account, so she would like a
reasonable allowance. v

Halt Divorce Proceedings and Settle
Down to Life's Real
Joys.
Trenton, N. J.j July 17. After a
fight of a year in the divorce court
Laura and Stephen Kiss notified
their respective lawyers that they
had decided to kiss and make up and
asked that further action in the suit
be discontinued. . ;
The Kisses were married in Tren
ton in 1910 and lived happily for
two years. At a hearing before a
justice of the peace on a charge of
non-support, Kiss declared that he
would rather go to the electric chair
than give his wife money. Besides
failing to support her, Mrs. Kiss
charged her husband beat her and
otherwise ill-treated her.
Lately, however. Kiss sought a re
conciliation, and In a letter asking
her to return to him referred to Mrs.
Kiss as his "deeply respected, sacred,
faithful, non-forgettable wife." This
evidence of love was irrefutable and
the reunion followed.
