Good News from the Farms.

St. Paul Globe.
 Unless the weather conditions during the next few months are absolutely disastrous this year will break all records in the amount of grain produced in this country. The outlook is most cheering for the agriculturist and for the people generally. as the prosperity of the country depends to a large extent on the con- dition of the husbandman. The outlook justi- nes the putting aside of the pessmistc views of the fnancier It Is quite within the range of --probability-that there will be something of q break In the speculative mar kets, but 1t Is not likely to be far-reaching, in view of the fact that the worlds bread basket will be filled to overfio wing. The in- dustrial world is in fair way. the husband man is well off and has the practical assur- ance of good year before him. The financial world may take care of itself.

Mission Work the Topic for Con
 alteration.


 Demopolis, May s.--(special. 1.-The Diocesan Mission work was the sole topic for consideration at last nights session of the Council The deans of the con- vacations made report as to what had been done during the past year and point iaborers in the vineyard.
 Mir. J. H. Fitts, submitted an argu- ment on Wednesday night urging sys- tematic plan for raising missionary fund and showing how much could be realized from small contributions by every com municant Instead of 5000 or 5000 he showed that 1t ought to be nearer $30.0o0. Carrying out the spirit of his suggestion the Council last night adopted unanimous- ly . resolution offered by Rev. Mir. Mc- Clown of Tuscaloosa urging upon the rectors and vestrymen of every parish and every minister in charge of mission, the organization at once of Missionary work. It is beiived of the plan is put in operation at once that the result re- ported to next Council viii be the largest ever known.
 In order to carry on the work this year the roll of parishes and mission stations was called and pledges were made amount ing to a considerable increase over these made last year. The Committee on Finance reported informally that the duced. and the amount of this reduction in each parish was added to what had been given last year to missions. It makes the missionary outlook decidedly more cheerful.
 Today.s session has been devoted to re- port of committees, and winding up the business. Tonight's meeting Is devoted to Sunday school discussion.
 There are two more parishes on the self-supporting list-New Decatur asks no further aid from mission fund and Ensley a mission heretofore has been made a parish and asks nothing for support of rector. Next year from present indtca- tions there will be several other parishes and missions that will rely solely on their own resources.

A COUGH

A When is a cough more than a cougha
 When it's a settled cold. When it hangs on in spite of all you can do. Cough mix lures won't cure it because they are merely for a cough and this is something more.
 Scott's Emulsion cures the cough because it cures the something more. It heals and repairs the inAamed tissues where the cold has taken root and prevents its coming back.

Wasted All Three Wishes.

An irish legend has it that a good
fairy once visited an old couple and
promised them that any three wishes
they would make would he granted
After rackiug their brains for some
time in an endeavor 10 discover 'wha t
they desired most the couple decided
20 visit the county fair to see if some
thing there would suggest what they
wanted. They did so, and after ram
bling around all day and not seeing
anything that exactly suited them
toward evening they found them
/ selves before a display of Kitchen
utensils. Among them was soup la,
lle, cheap, but likely to appeal to u
woman, so the old woman in an alb.
sent moment said, "Oh, | wish had
one of those" and Immediately she
had it. The old man was so enraged
because his wife had thoughtIessly
thrown away one valuable wish that
he retorted, 81 wish that was stuck
| down your throat" and Immediately
this was done. Thereupon he was at
once sorry at what he wished, and the
only thing left to do was to wish the
ladle out again. So all three wishes
went for naught.
