Tbe next wheat crop in Macon coun ty will be greater than that of any other year within a quarter of a centu ry.

There has been some complaining, but it is a matter of common knowl edge that tbe South, in spite of tbe low price of its leading staple, is in better financial condition today than for many years. Its farmers are more nearly out of debt and its people gen erally are doing well, except perhaps in the yellow fever regions, where there is a temporary setback. It really looks as if progress, economy and intelligence have combined to offset tbe evil effects of tbe low price of cotton —Birmingham News.

A pile of newspapers lay at Lord Dufferin’s side; the animal want up to them, cut them neatly with, his tusks, wbiob had been purposely sharpened, and laid them in a neat heap on tbe floor, ready fur perusal.

Adelina Patti’s recent action in becom ing a British citisen is thought to bear some relation to the disposition of her great fortune. One of the best known legal firms in England looks after her af faire, and its representatives not long ago took occasion to deny that Signer Nioolinl had left his private fortune to his wife. It went to hie children. Mme. Patti is said to have become very devout of late and made several attempts to reconcile herself to the church from which her mar riage had alienated her. During tho past few months she has had a private chaplain in her Welsh castle, and the permission granted her to do this is believed to Indi cate an intention to receive her again into the church.—Argonaut.

I had never had any faith in patent medicines, but having seen Ripans Tabules recommended very highly in the New York Herald con cluded to give them a trial, and found they were just what my case demanded. I have never employed a physician since, and that means a saving oft 2 a call. ■> fl fl!

If the telling about my case in the papers enables some other person similarly affected to be as greatly benefited as I have been, I seenoubjeettan." The daugh ters knowing how earnestly she felt about the benefit she had received,« decided she was quite right.
