WELCOME.
The pastor of the Presbyterian church
here was unable to All his appointment
Sunday on account of indisposition, and
by special invitation the writer supplied
his place at the morning service. The
weekly prayer meeting was held in the
evening, in which all the churches
joined.
Beginning on the second Sunday in
May, a week's meeting will be held at
the l’rosbyterian church. Several
visiting ministers will be present and
take part in the services.
Col. R, W. Adamson and family, of
Carrollton, viBited Turin relatives last

The impression prevails that our far
mers are in better shapo financially to
make a crop than for several years
past; but, as a matter of fact, a ma
jority are either buying supplies on
credit or operating on money borrowed
from the banks. Every year mules are
bought at extortionate prices, and im
mense quantities of guano is used.
When these have been paid for, and
other expenses are deducted, the far
mer has little left to show for his year’s
work. The crop may be sold at a fair
price, but the outlay is so heavy there
is not much left. The cost of labor is
twofold greater than it was ten years
ago. Then a good hand could be hired
for 50c. a day;—the sume hand now de
mands $1 and three meals a day.
Hence'we conclude that the average
farmer is still in the thraldom of debt,
and in no better condition otherwise
than he was ten or fifteen years ago.
Instead of increasing his tax burden,
which our Legislatures have been doing
in recent years, there is every reason
why it should be reduced.

A BRONCHIAL COUGH
is wearing and dangerous because the inflamed,
mucus-filled tubes interfere with breathing and the
fresh air passes through that unhealthy tissue.
Probably no other remedy affords such prompt
and permanent relief as .Scoff’s Emulsion; it
checks the cough, heals the linings of the throat
and bronchial tubes and strengthens the lungs to
avert tuberculosis. This point cannot be empha
