THE RIGHT SIDE.

There is many rest in the road OF
life
If we would only stop to take it,
And many tune from the better land
If the querulous heart would
wake it.
} tie sunny soul that is full of hope
Ana whose beautiful trust ne'nr
faileth
The grass is green and the flowers are
bright,
Though the wintry winds prevalent.
Better to hope though the clouds hang
low,
And to keep the eyes still lifted;
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep
through
When the ominous clouds are rifted!
There was never night without a
day,
Or an evening without a morning,
And the darkest hour, as the proverb
goes,
Is the hour before the dawnlng.
Better to weave in the web of life
A bright and golden filling,
And to do Gods will with ready
heart
And hands that are swift and will
ing,
Than to snap the delicate, slender
threads
Of our curious lives asunder,
And then blame heaven for the tan
gled ends,
And sit and grieve, and wonder.

MILLS LAYING
IN STORES OF COTTON.

Columbus, Ga, Sept 29-The heav-
lest sale of new cotton this season was
made yesterday morning by the w
c. Bradley Company, who disposed OF
700 bales to the Columbus Manufac-
turing Company The price paid was
not made public.
The big sale at the Bradley ware
house has seriously depleted the sup
ply of new cotton on hand in Colum-
bus, which is the lowest for many
years at this season. The mills are
buying freely, evidently fearing a
bullish market next month, and as
the farmers are selling equally as
freely, the mills are buying to prevent
all the available cotton being sent
away from Columbus.

The Coming Corset

* GOD fortune rarely comes to

1t seldom befalls that she may
be at the same time fashionably
and healthfully CARRIED. When some
fashion lapses into the comfortable 1t
usually Is revoked almost at once. But
woman has come into her own at last:
the alert woman already has arrived
and the conservative woman Is reaching
toward it speedily enough.
The gown has made the corset. and Is
still making it. With the advent of the
empire lines we were permitted a cor
set with supple tendencies and some
what straighter lines than the present
generation of women had ever known.
Finding that this was a success in cor
set development. the makers are VEN
turing further and producing in greater
numbers a totally different corset for
the gowns of the Middle Ages. AZ
have said. certain advanced women al
ready are reveling in corsets of the cut
made exclusively for these gowns.
1t will be the coming-the autumn and
winter-corset. but get 1t earlier II you
