The Atlanta corespondent of Dun’s Commer

The new battleship that is to bear the honored

Each of the distilleries in the state, great and
small, will be invitrd to contribute a small quan

The house committee on foreign relations
seems to think there is little in Cuba to iceo
nize. They say the Cubans have no pretense of
form of government, that the Cubans have no
seaport, that they have not hrtd a single town
which they have captured, and that no such
thing as ii'i'lvil republician government exists
even in form. In other words there is nothing
to recognize beyond the fact that there is a re
volt In Cuba widen may result in a revolution.

You may talk aboui your trolleys, your mot
ocycles and your “bikes,” but the' mule is still
on <leck in Georgia, and is likely to remain there
for vears and years to come. Four hundred and
thirty-live mules were sold in Barnesville last
year, and they brought good prices. There are
people who see in the large purchases of mules
in various parts of the stale mi indication of an
increased cotton acreage. That, however, may
be doubted. Year before last, when the hard
times were hardest, there was a general re
duction of the working stock on farms, through
voluntary sab sand the foreclosingef mortgages.
The last crop left the farmers with monev to
lheir credit, with which to buy mules, and they
have lately been replenishing their stables with
farm animals. Mules will plow corn, rice,
potatoes and peas just as willingly as they will
plow cotton, it is just as reasonable to say that
the increased purchases of mules mean increased
food crop acreages as that they mean increased
cotton acreages.—Savannali News,

I Hosiery
Black in Hosiery will reign in ’96. We have them
for all ages —honest, trustworthy Hosiery—that will
wash and wear as well as the best you ever had.
The secret of their cheapness in the prices is that
we triple the sales by sharing the profits equally
with you. Bring these prices with you —we will let
your judgment do the rest —5, 10, 15 and 25 cents.
NO WOMAN WEARS A CORSET FOR FUN—
certainly not; yet one might suppose so from the
way some merchants try to sell Corsets. A good
Corset means.a good form and proper support, and
incidentally, a good figure on the street We sell
the R. & G. Corsets because we believe them the best.
If you examine one, you too willjbe struck by its
general excellence and believe with us that it is the
best. Prices, 50c., 75c., SI.OO and $1.25. Sizes

Many ladies wear black from choice. They
like it better than anything else. Some from
necessity, so-called, as a sign of bereavement.
Millions wear it at present because it is fash
ionable. It’s certainly dressy and, in most
cases, becoming—provided you get the proper
black. If you cannot get the correct
don’t take it unless obliged to. Certainly pricWp
admits of every lady having the best black these
d a y S —that is, our prices do. We sell you black
goods for fifty cents now ; a dollar it used to be.
Our former fifty cent quality is now 29 cents.
If you want a superior grade in the new weaves
it is here for you, for less money than any
where else.
