Opportunities
in the South.
By J. M. Gleissner, druggist.

No portion Of the United States
has made greater progress In the
last year or two than the South.
Northern and foreign capital is
rapidly invading that section,
finding profitable investment in
the various industries and fac
tories that are being rapidly de-
veloped and built. The great
influx OF settlers lie creating
an increased demand for lands
Of all kinds aud prices are grad
ually advancing, as they will for
years to c)me. Work is plen-
tiful and poverty practically
unknown. Alabama is supply
ing coal and iron to all the world.
More money can be made and
with less labor in the raising Of
small fruits and berries and In
truck patching on the Gulf
Coast than in any other state in
the Union. Strawberries from
Alabama reach northern mark
cts before those from the states
10 the southeast. Cattle can be
raised with great profit, there
being millions OF acres Of cheap
range lands. II you are inter
ested In the south and its re-

NEW YORK FASHION LETTER.

NEW YORK. Jan. 1.-THE fashion
able girl of spring will be a compos-
ite creature. She will be severe, but
feminine; simple but elegant. her
gowns will reveal the most delightful
color schemes. but at all times VIII
they be harmonious. Her individual
tastes Will find expression in her
gowns and everything that she wears
will emphasize her originality.
The spring novelties which now
occupy the places of honor in the
shops, having relegated winter fab
RIGS to the bargain counters, are not
necessarily expensive. though there
are instances in which one might run
the limit of extravaganza. Happily
dress which for many years raised a
sharply accentuated dividing line be-
tween the rich and poor has today
levelled all class lines, and some of
the most beautiful materials are so
cheap that they are easily within the
reach of the woman with limited
dress allowance.
For instance. among the smartest
fabrics in which the newest shirt
waists appear are mercerized cotton,
Madras. chambray. batlste, linon. null,
lawn and Nainsook Rayee. which, by
the way. is no more or less than
lineE-nnished cotton fabric with
high-sounding name.
The spring shirt waist. while It says
over the belt at the front, shows a
square. rather than the rounded out.
line of previous years. This is a
French idea which will no doubt be
come very popular in America.
The shirt waist suit, which appeals
principally to women whose mornings
are devoted to shopping, is diversified
this season by few touches of color
An especially chic design is carried
out In gobelin blue foulard embroIder-
ed in old rose and nile green silk. The
blouse waist closes with an inverted
box-plait and has two narrow plaits
at the shoulders which iutermingle
gracefully with the folds OF the blouse
effect at the end of the stitching. The
sleeves are of bishop pattern and have
an inverted box-plait to the elbow
A novel Idea is expressed in the
bip-yoke. which is made in one piece
with the narrow front breadth of the
skirt and supports three wide nounces
which are unlined, but given support
by n drop skirt of cobelln blue taffeta,
Still another shirt waist frock Is
made of putty-colored pongee and has
the skirt shirred around the top IN
stimulation of hip-yolie. The waist
is distinctive affair, being embroid-
cred down the front with the Japanese
alphabet in bright oolored silks.
The new color schemes are to he
recommended for their daintiness and
general becomingness. Grey with
shades of sage green is a fayorite
combination. although 1t is often com

OIL as Fuel.

The many oil discoveries during the
past few years would seem to indI-

and as result much of it Is being

There are many people. however. who
will always prefer the coal, just as
