Craig, Duluth Westminster Catechisms. The longer and shorter Catechisms of Westminster, along with the con- fession of faith of Westminster, the documents which contain the creed of the Church of Scotland, are ac- cepted by the Presbyterian church of the United States and of other Eng- lish-speaking lands. No party in the American Presbyterian church has disclaimed the Westminster stand- ards openly, although of course there pre some who do not follow them very closely, The Westminster catechisms are not to be supplanted by the inter- mediate catechism adopted by the Presbyterian general assembly at Louisville, Ky, during the week which ended May 26. AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITS FROM FIFTY COUNTIES 8ixty per cent of the counties of Minnesota will be represented by ex- hibits in the agricultural building at the Minnesota State Fair'this fall. This is the most remarkable show- ing ever made in Minnesota or in any other state. It will afford an opportu- nity for citizens and prospective citl zens to'learn the character of the sofl and the crop possibilities of any par- ticular section of the state in which they may be interested and of the state as a whole. In order to house these fifty exhibits it has been necessary to build a large addition to the agricultural building and even with this added room, it has been found necessary to do some very careful planning. The county exhibits will all be prop- erly taken care of, however, and each county will be given every opportu- nity to advertise its resources and to win the liberal prizes offered by the fair agsociation.

Three months’ subscrip=- WILL STICK TO WATER WAGON No More Convivial Times for Boston Man, After an Experience in Rhode Island. i The confidential clerk of a Boston financial establishment, who is noted for his scrupulousness, explained thus to a party of friends the other even- ing why for two months he has con- fined his convivial exercises to the consumption of buttermilk, apollinaris and other innocuous beverages: “I hit it up pretty strong one week in March,” he said, “and when I came to I was in Providence, broke I hadn’t -the heart to wire home for money, and set out to walk the forty-four miles between me and Boston. I got lifts from farmers and slept in a barn one night, and the next day got along as far as Stoughton. I was passing a humble home in the woods when I emelled corned beef and cabbage cooking. I simply couldn’t pass that house without eating. “Resolved to send the housewife a dollar if she fed me, I made known my almost agonizing hunger. She prompt- 1y set me down to fhe best tasting meal I had ever known and I was working at it man fashion when the young hopeful of the house, about years old, began a dismal wailing. ‘Keep still, Mikey,’ sajd the mother, ‘or T'll have the bum ate you' I felt a lump in my throat that stopped the passage of food for more than a min- ute. I then realized as I hadn’t be- fore just what my spree had done to my anpearance. “Mikey immediately checked his grief, and was maintaining perfect si- lence when his mother addressed me, saying, ‘If Mikey cries again you’ll ate him, won't you, Mr. Tramp?" ‘I would if you'd wash him,’ I answered. I've been on the wagon since.” —— An Exception, A sclentist informs us that the av- erage man is 75 per cent. water. Won- der if he means the average Milwau- kee man?—Milwaukee Sentinel.
