The United States has since 1860 be-

wool for manufacturing purposes In the
civilized world. This great wool crop
was forced into existence by the intiu'

wooden goods during the civil war, and
b. the influence Of the high protective
duties specially levied upon imported
woods. By this ear the American
manufacturers OF wooden goods have
made much more rapid progress / n &C

ously obtained through a long previous
succession Of years by the American
manufacturers of cotton goods. The
woods chiefly produced in this country
are fine and valuable; while on the
other hand, the largest quantities ofthe
foreign woods imported are cheap,
coarse and common. 1t Is true that
there are some special qualities OF for

having been married four times and di-
vorced three times. She is now living

or q divorce at almost any time.
John Handley's mistake seems to
have been in his choice of a wife. Three

refused, and has eve since persisted in
her refusal. He wants a divorce.
