A well known American connoisseur of the fine arts relates that
some two years ago he was travelling in Europe with his family and
while at 81. Petersburg his oldest daughter was much annoyed by con-
stpation and its attendant ills, and the Russian physician had so much
trouble about understanding the case, or such poor success in treating
ii, that the mother bewaned their oversight in being so far away from
home without a supply of Ripans Tabules. Thereupon the father 1.-THE
we'll known connoisseur aforesaid) remembered that he had packed
away a box of the Tabues in a safe place in his portmanteau, so a not
to be deprived of their use on board ship for the return voyage. These
he produced, and they afforded the daughter SO much relief and tided
owe the difficulty so efectuany, that no member Of that family has
ever since failed to speak a good word for Ripans Tabules or consented
to travel without a supply at command.

WEEKLY CROP REPORT.
Weather Favorable for the Ripcn-
ing of the Harvest.

WASHINGTON, Sept. q. = The
weather bureau in its report of crop
conditions for the week ending Sept
20. says: The week has been favor
able for ripening and securing crops.
but in the central Mississippi and Ohio
valleys, Tennessee and over portions
OF the Middle and South Atlantic
states, it has been too dry for fall
seeding of grain. The exceptionally
warm weather of the first half of the
month matured corn rapidly and has
placed nearly the whole crop beyond
injury from frost. Owing to drought
conditions in some of the more i'm
portant states the grain, particularly
the late crop, did not fill well, and the
reports indicate that much will he
chaffy. Cutting has progressed randi
ly under favorable conditions. and in
some of the more important corn
states will be particularly completed
by the end Of September Cotton has
continued to open very rapidly and
picking has been vigorously carried on.
The weather conditions on the Pacific
coast have been favorable, the absence
of rain in California being specially
advantageous for curing raisins and
crying fruit. In Oregon and Washing
ton the damage to grain by rain of the
two preceding weeks is considered
light.

NEW YORK DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-The market for
dry goods remains quiet. In the cotton goods
the demand is limited, although dealers have
no fear for the future. They look for lull

business will be in full blast and returns will
be adequate in both cotton and wooden lines.
The market is active among jobbers and
