Corn Crop Damaged.

1t was reported in trade circles this week
that there will be great disappointment when
the big corn crop in the West begins to move.
The crop is immense, but it is alleged that
great quantities of it has been so damaged by
rain that it will not grade up to the re-
CURED standards for shipping. If such
should be the case it will also have depress-
ing effect upon the stock market, as brokers
have been depending largely on the corn
movement to bring about an easier money
situation

Among the finest tributes paid to the Onl'eo
States by foreigners is that of Ludwig Max
Goldberger. member of the German Board
for Commercial Museums. Mr.. Goldberger
spent eight months in this country, during
which he made personal Investigations re-
specting our economic progress tor the lntor-
nation of the German Government. He has
written a series of articles i'll a leading Berlin
newspaper, in which he characterlzes the
United States AS 1.-The land of unbounded pos
siblities.' The things that impressed this
keen observer mos, are the inventive inteIh-
pence of Americans and their unbounded con-
fidence IN their country. 1t seemed to him
as though every one were flied with the idea,
'the stranger shall see how great and strong
America is Vast changes have taken place
since Sydney Smiths sneers, at the insignia
canoe of all things American, were written. NO
country is now attracting more attention than
the United States All Europe desires to
learn the secret of our prosperity.

of Mr. and Mrs. John r. Wolf
Lay back the braids of her soft silken hair,
For Mary our darling is slumbering now;
Clasp on her breast those cold fragile hands
Hands that ne'er shrunk to meet Gods COM
mands.
We weep for the form that we'll see no more,
For the one whom we loved has passed from
our door;
For missing smile, a kind cheering word,
That greeted all hearts whereer she was
heard.
But not for that soul whose guerdon is won,
Whose infinite joy has only begun;
Nor for the spirit that just took its flight,
Toa home of sweet rest of perfect delight.
Then fare thee we'll, our loved one dear,
We can no longer see you here;
Our Saviour calls we must obey;
He called our loved one home.
