Indian corn, cassava, mawere, beans, bananas—these do not grow wild even in Africa. Every meal has to be bought and paid for in cloth and beads.

As a rule the footpaths are marvelously correct.” An Eloquent Passage. Probably of all the beautiful and elo quent passages ever written by the in imitable George D. Prentice, the fol lowing is the finest: “It cannot be that earth is man’s on ly abiding place. It cannot be that our life is a bubble cast by eternity to float a moment upon its waves and sink into nothingness. Else why is it that the high and glorious aspirations which leap like angels from the temple of our hearts are forever wandering unsatisfied V Why is it that the rainbow and cloud come over us with a beauty that is not of earth, and then pass off to leave us to muse on their loveliness ? Why is it that the stars which ‘hold their festival around the midnight throne forever sure to get the genuine.

The yield of fruit and vegetables has been unprecedentedly heavy, and the shipments Nortli have taxed the carry ing capacity of the railroads. The yield of wheat in most of the .Southern States, especially in those in which it is a leading crop, such as Maryland, Tennessee, etc., has been phenomenally large, and the aggregate yield for the Sout h will doubtless be the greatest on record. Moreover, the shortage in the Western wheat crop has enhanced values, and Southern farmers are ob taining much better prices than a year ago. The acreage of corn and cotton is unusually heavy, greater even than in 1887, when the largest crops ever raised in the South were produced, and so far in the season the indications point to much larger yields also than last year. The corn crop is almost made, and this year the Southern farm ers will have much less Western corn to buy than for many years. In fact, the South will be almost self-supporting in the corn line. While the cotton crop has many dangers yet to meet, its con dition up to the present is almost all that could be asked, and it is only reasonable to look fora good crop, with a strong proabability of a yield equal ing even the splendid turn out of 1887. The prosperous condition of the ag ricultural interests is, however, only one of the features of the brilliant promise of the South. Two years ago millions of dollars were invested in the building of new furnaces, foundries, rolling mills and kindred enterprises. Many of these great enterprises have been under construction, yielding no profits, but virtually locking up all the money thus invested. Now. they are all getting into operation, and before 1SS8 ends there will be such an enor mous production of manufactures in the South as would have been thought impossible five years ago. From mines and furnaces, rolling mills and foun dries, car works and pipe-works, cot The South. The indications for a season of great activity in the trade and manufacturing interests of the South, as compiled by the Manufacturer’s Eecord, are exceed ingly favorable. Barely, if ever before, has the prospect been so promising. The corn and cotton crops of 1887 were the largest ever produced in the South, and, as fairly good prices were realized, the farmers found themselves at the beginning of 1888 in a much better finan cial condition than for several years. Blessed as the farmers of the South — D — were last year with abundant crops, | are mocking us with their unapproach- present indications point to a season of able glory ? And, finally, why is it that bright forms of human beauty are pre sented to our view and taken from us, leaving the thousand streams of our af fection to flow back in an Alpine tor rent upon our hearts? There is a realm where the rainbow never fades; where the stars will be spread out before us like islands that slumber on the ocean, and where the beautiful beings which pass before us like shadows, will stay forever in our presence.” Woman. Burdette. True, she cannot sharpen a pencil, and, outside of commercial circles, she can’t tie a package to make it look like anything save a crooked cross section of chaos, but, land of miracles! see what she can do with a pin! She cannot walk so many miles around a billiard-table with nothing to eat, and nothing (to speak of) to drink, but she can walk the floor all night with a fretting baby. She can ride five hundred miles without going into the smoking car to’rest (and get away from the children.) She can enjoy an evening visit without smoking a half dozen cigars. She can endure the distraction of a house full of chil dren all day, while her husband sends them all to bed before he has been home an hour. A boy with a sister is fortunate, a fellow with a cousin is to be envied, a young man with a sweet heart is happy, and a man with a good wife is thrice blessed more than they all.

Gordon, Gover nor of said State, do issue this my Proclaina- tion hereby declaring that the foregoing pro prevailing winds will not waft the odors towards it. Better still, the bad smells should be reduced to a minimum by deodorizmg at the pen. This is easily done and profitably, too, by throwing in a few shovelfuls of dry earth on that portion where the pigs resort, so that their manure is mixed up with it in the pen, and still more thoroughly when the pen is cleaned out. Every In ofTerlng this remedy to the public, wc place it entirely on its own merits, as estab lished by those who have used it. We ask you to read the following testimon ials. and if not satisfactory write to the par ties. Dr. J. W. Oslin <fc Son, druggists, of Gaines ville, Ga., on September 10,1887, write: “Send hy express one dozen Catarrh Cure. Two bottles cured a ease of fifty years’ standing.” It will restore the smell. Mr. Wm. O’Connor, of Moscow, Tenn., un der date of September 5, 1887, writes: “Send me another bottle of your medicine. I think I am improving. I have not. smelled any thing in two three years until a few days ago. Send as soon as you get this, as I do not want to get out. I know it is doing me good, wheth er it cures me or not. I expect it will take a long time to cure me, as I have it so had.” Atlanta, Ga. Canadian Catarrh Cure Co.: Gentlemen—My wife and little boy have suf- ferred greatly from catarrh for several years. I determined" to try “Canadian Catarrh Cure,” and I am happy to say that one bottle has relieved my wife entirely, and improved my little boy so much that I am sure before the second bottle is empty he will be cured.
