The S0uth's Prosperity.

With an enormous cotton crop
ripening, the largest fruit crop in
its history and prospects for a great
yield of corn, the south is reasonably
sure of a prosperous fall and winter.
Twelve million bales Of cotton is a
conservative estimate at this writ
ing. The price for fall months is
really better than We could expect.
Peaches brought into Georgia
alone nearly three million dollars,
and the South's melons and vege-
tables have Melted two or three
times as much. The South's cotton
will give us half a billion dollars,
and there will be very little corn to
buy next winter.
In the West cornl prospects are
fine, but wheat will be 30 per cent
short. So the West will barely
hold its own.
In the East, the presidential cam
paign and a slow iron and steel
market are depressing general bust
ness.
Last winter the South's cotton
money went a long way to avert a
general panic. Now it looks as il
the South will again furnish the
money and the prosperity Of tn ma
tion.-The Railway Record.

Emergency nedicines.

1t is q great convenience to have at
hand reliable remedies for use in cases
of accident and for slight injuries and
ailments. A good linIment and one that
is fast becoming a favorite. if not "a
household necessity, is Chamberlain's
Pam Balm. By applying it promptly to
a cut, bruise or bnrn it allays the pain
and causes the injury to heal in about
one third the tire usually required and
as it is an antiseptic it prevents any dan
ger of blood poisoning. When Pain
Balm is kept at hand a sprain may be
treated before inflammation sets in,
which insures a quick recovery. For

TEAL DUCK NOT FLESH.

did you know that teal duck is not
flesh ?" inquired a Baltimore man of a
party of gentlemen who were discus
sing the high price of fish. TITS a fact.
The teal duck is not flesh, even if it IS
fowl. 1t is The same as a winged and
feathered fish, and any good Catholic
can safely eat one for fish during the
Lenten season or on Friday. I happen
ed to be a guest at luncheon whereat
sat one of the great dignitaries of the
astounded when a teal duck was serv-
ed at every plate. After the luncheon
thought over the matter and puzzled
my mind TO know why teal duck
could be eaten on Friday when a mall
lard would be under the ban of the
church. asked a good friend of mine
who is pastor of one Of the churches.
He informed me that teal duck was
not flesh any more than a trout or a
minnow. The teal is the same as a
turtle or an egg. neither flesh nor fish.
This little due I'll not feed on any
thing but fish. or little things of that
sort that live in water. On the other
hand the mallard eats grain. such as
wild rice, corn. wild grasses or the
seeds thereof, besides feeding, as does
the teal. on minnows and small fish.
Simply by the mixing of diet the mall
lard is under the ban so far as adorn-
ng the Friday dinner table of an ortho-
dox Catholic goes
