Your Fall and Winter Hat will
cost less if purchased
at home.
We tell the same hat, made
of the tame material, in the
same manner, that you would
pay a much higher price for
elsewhere.
Only an investigation is
needed to convince you, and we
invite you to make that inspec
tion.

TO KEEP COTTON.
C ^'respondent Gives His Experiences
in Storing Shiplc.
To the Editor of the State.
As there is so much discussion about
warehousing cotton, I will give you
my experience in keeping cotton. Get
some good pine i>oles and place cord
Wood under the i>oles to raise about
six or eight inches from the ground,
place four bricks under each bale of
cotton where it comes in contact with
poles. Two bricks will not make cot
ton sit level, it takes four bricks to
the bale. I will guarantee if the cot
ton is placed six inches apart so that
the sun and wind can circulate and
not let bales touch each other, it will
keep in perfect condition for eighteen
months without losing on(? pound from
rot. In fact, it will keep perfectly un
til the bagging rots, which would take
two years if the bagging is first class.
Out in the open air is better and safer
to keep and it is not half as liable to
get burned. I keep cotton this way
nearly every year for ten months and
I have my first pound to lose. The
brick absorbs the water that falls on
the poles and the cotton will not have
to be turned. B have plenty of house
room and sheds to store my cotton, but
the open air beats all for safe-keep
ing and I would not have a shed over
my cotton, for it will certainly keep
better in the sunshine.

ed to do or die. ... . ?
He was a brave man, a gallant sol
dier, an efficient officer: generous, geJi->
ial and warm hearted in all the social I
and friendly relations, and amid the
anions duties and ambitious aspira
tions of life, self-reliant and animated
by the noblest alms. We learn from a
brother officer, that his Colonel, speak
ing of him in the highest terms, com
mended hi* energy, ?? -activity -and his
promptness, while on the march, as
well as his coolness and courage in
finite of action. His mind was of an
original, dialctlc and philosophic cast,
highly cultivated and richly set with
the brightest gems of ancient and mod
ern polite literature. After that fear
ful and bloody battle of Manassas,
where soldiers like reai>ers marched
out to the harvest of Death, he spoke
freely to his Captain of his obligations
and dejKMidenoe upon God, and ex
pressed a desire to partake of the Holy
Communion. He had been for nearly
three years a member of the Episcopal
church, to which he was ardently at
tached from earliest childhood. In his
religious life and feelings, hs yet un
turnta initiated by tlie viees of tlx* camp,
shunning equally a sour and selfish
acetielsm and it too soothing, self-com
placent, self - indulgent sensualism,
steadfastly between th<*two extremes,
with a firm and uncompromising faith
in the word and promises of God, and
instantly heeding the promptings of an
enlightened and saotified conscience, he
Walked an humble, conscientious and
exemplary Christian.
"Sorrow not then as those without hope
Ye stricken and bereaved parents,
And loving and devoted sister, but fol
low,
God's grace preventing.
Your first horn and best beloved,
Your Christian son and brother.
Till you meet him where the eyes of a
meek and abiding faith behold him
Safe in the haven of eternal rest."
