plan to have a public wedding on
the county fair grounds, in fact there

happy couple out with material to
build home, furnish it and provide a
years provisions.
Mr.. Bowes predicts that before the
wedding day he will have secured
lot and lumber and shingles enough
to build a home, as we'll as furniture,
provisions and other presents to give
the couple a fair start in life. AL
ready he has got building lot from
John G. Lewis, 5000 feet of lumber
and 5000 shingles from five mills.
He has had three applications for
the honor of county fair wedding,
and says those first applying will be
accepted, and that they are a young
couple we'll known and popular about
town, but the names will not be re-
vealed until the bridal party marches

BRIDE DISOWNS HUSBAND
Husband Becomes Abusive When Faith
er-in-laW Refuses to Put Up
Money-Accused Of Keep
ing Diamond Ring.

Recently the honeymoon experiences
of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Barron, who
were married four weeks ago in Alb
erdeen, have occupied considerable
space in Sound, Portland and local
newspapers. Following the wedding
the couple went to Tacoma, where Mrs.
Barron was quietly joined by her
father, William O'Neil, wealthy resi-
dent of Oakland, Cal. Executing a
coup ON the groom, the young bride and
her father departed by steamer for
home. Barron immediately swore cut
a warrant against the father-in-law
charging abduction, ard gave out the
statement that he would race the
boat by train to San Francisco where
he would meet it and see that the
warrant was properly served on the
abductor of his wife.
Word has reached Aberdeen, how
ever, that Barron was not at t1fs slip
when the steamer arrived, and Mrs.
Barron has explained her sudden de-
parture from the arms of her hus-
band as follows:
"Mr. Barron knew better than to
follow us here. He beat me on our
honeymoon, and took from he a dia-
mond ring, present from my father,
and refused to give it back. He began
mistreating me as soon as he found
out that he could not get money out
of dad, and l never want to see him
again."

Yes, DO II Now

TO your shopping early while the
good things are on tap,
Grab the early bargains while they're
on the bargain map.
Don't be one Of those Kites that hit
the shopping trails
When all the clerks are weary after
forty thousand sales.
What's the use Of loafng while the
early shoppers win?
When you. are sweating lava, those
same early birds will grin!
Christmas eve the pleasant girls
who ladle out the toys
Will be so worn and weary they'll
have no Christmas joys.
Haven't they a right to holler at
your putter and delay?
Pray leave them strength to Cele-
brate bit on Christmas day!
If you put off your shopping till the
very last hour,
hope you draw o lemon that is
secondhand and sour!
The tardy shopper blithely said. "A
Merry Christmas grille"
The clerk replied, IF you were dead
or did your shopping early
We could enjoy little fun around
our Christmas table.
But slow-pokes Keep me on the rum
till Christmas joys a fable"

We know how he felt,-ms'Ne been

And sorry; now. haven't we, GIRLS.
His father came DOWN and said
sternly,
"Who cut down my best chenry
tree?"
"It was l." said the boy, "wdbh the

Just the same ais our fathers and
