one dreadful disease that science has I
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catar
rh Cure is taken internally, acting di
rectly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting na
ture in doing its work. The propriet
ors have so much faith in its curative
powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.

COLUMBUS MILLS LAYING
IN STORES OF COTTON.
Columbus, Ga., Sept. 29.—The heav
iest 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
aw r ay from Columbus.

There is many a rest in the road of
life
If we would only stop to take it, i
And many a tune from the better land,
If the querulous heart would
w'ake it!
Tj S’;e sunny soul that is full of hope, I
And whose beautiful trust ne’er
faileth,
The grass is green and the flowers are
bright.
Though the wintry winds prevaileth.
Botier 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 a night without a
day.
Or an evening without a morning,
And the darkest hour, as the proverb
goes,
Is the hour before the dawning.
Better to weave in the web of life
A bright and golden filling,
And to do God’s will with a ready
heart
And hands that are swift and will
ing,
Than to snap the delicate, slender
threads
Os our curious lives asunder,
And then blame heaven for the tan
gled ends.
And sit and grieve, and wonder.
