Weather and Crops.

The first half of the week was cool
and showers. and the last half was
warm and dry. The rainfall was
generally sufficient for present
needs in the greater part of the
State, affording ample moisture to
improve the pasture, replenish the
streams and put the soil in good
condition for blowing. The Central
and Southern Districts received the
] larger amount of rain, and it was
much needed in the south western
counties. Fall blowing is now we'll
advanced in all sections, and much
seeding of fall grain has been done
under the most favorable condition.
The corn crop is now practically
beyond danger of material injury
by frost, though some of the late
planted fields will mature in better
| condition if normal weather pre-
walls during the balance of the
month. A considerable area has
been cut and shocked, especially in
the eastern districts. On the whole
this has been a season of bountiful
production in this highly favored

LADY, drawing room is a pandemo-
mum of shouting women. You have
no choice but to shout if you wish
to converse on these occasions, and
the success OF failure of one of these
functions seems to depend largely
on the din which the guests are able
to create. These are, however, pri-
vate pandemoniums and can be
avoided.
They only torture those who par
tieipate in them. Then even the
church people contribute their
quota. In these days of innumer-
able clocks and watches, the ring
ing of church bells in large cities is
simply barbarous and their painful
and injurious effect on the sick and
afflicted, the tired and weary, who
cannot escape from them, is like
anything but the neighborly service
of the good Samaritan, who was so
warmly commended by that Master
whose doctrine the churches exist
to teach. Attention is called to these
instances of unnecessary noise to
show that noise makers belong to
all classes and that the so called re-
fined and religious are often as neg
lectful of the rights of others, in
this respect, as the rude and unedu-.
cated.-North American Review.
