*' IS"" - The Press and Banne; Bv W. W. and W. R. Bradley, p HUGH WILSON, Editor.] c f ABBEVILLE, S. C. ( -M-Publlshed every Wednesday at 82 a 1 cf?ar in advanoe. Wednesday, Feb. 19, 1908 PajinK Debls. Sherman once made a remark to the effec^ that "War is Hell," the same Is true ana worthy of all acceptation. J. H. Hall of the ( Savannah Bide Bays that "Debt Is the Devil'' and he states a maxim just as true. In Spanish counties and such other land? where men may be Imprisoned for debt and kept In jail at the expense of the governmeni until the debt Is paid?In such territory Sber- 8 man's definition of war Is perfectly applicable 8 to debt, except that It expresses It very r mildly. For some men debt is a stood thing. It ' enables them to pile up great fortunes. No " man can make a fortune without going In debt to do so. He must have credit to carrj on business, and where a man manages hit a business in a judicious way It is a good thing to go in debt. < On the other band there are men who s should never be allowed the use of a dollar which they have not made themselves for they are utterly devoid of that business acu men which makes the dollar to Increase In-. b stead of diminish. Such a man should never v ko In debt, he Is sure to lose, just as Bnre tr r lose as the other man Is to win. Every man looks on debt with his own 6 glass at his own focus. To some a small debt p seems as big as a mountain. To others a t debt as big as a mountain seems small, r (dodge him lf>on can.) Some men cannot g sleep 1f they owe more than they can pay. t Some men don't try to sleep until they do owe more than they can pay. We go Into debt for different reasons. a Some go in debt for bread; some go In debt to makemocej; some will not go into debt for any cause. A man who goes In debt for his e bread will live poor and die poor. An uncer- tl tain outcome awaits every man who goes Id ^ debt to make money. The man who goes In debt for nothing will be neither poor nor rich. d He will have plenty to do him and noi.e to b spare. (( Id this day of business and enterprise nearly every man owes Borne debts. On account of the universality of debt men bave taken this means to measure their fellowman. On the Rlalto they do not ask If a man Is well educated. They don't care a snap for hit genealogy. They don't lay much store by brain and Intellect; but does he pay hit t debts? That Is the question! This method t ofjrdglng men by the business world is as Q right as ave the Immutable laws. There are n exceptions where men oannot pay their debt* ,{ but there is not one case In a thousand Such a one Is duly held in the scorn which b be deserves. While people do not point the finger it blm,"mentally tbey turn their backs Q In contempt. He is a freak, a trick, an an- y thopold, and nota man. You know him and d you know the estimation in which he is 8l neia. J.I aoes uui necui iv wuiij i iu uiuvu, ^ Wben be makes a debt be does not loteod to pay It unless circumstances are sucb that bt Q will be obliged to. d This exception Is cot always among the R poor classes. While he is never rich he it t| counted "well-to-do." He lives as well ai ( home as yon do, probably better. His wift Q owns a nice borne and well furnished, and bf Q lives there In great comfort, probably morf comfortably than do you yourself?but yon A would not exchange with him for any con ??Uo/4AflDn!? noTT hlo Hahto I Bicierniiu". "> Not only should a man pay his debts but he 6honld do so promptly, as promptly as he can. If be cannot pay promptly he should not Incur the debt. What right have I to sbonlder my burden on another man? He'f ^ all right but slow pay. Have yon ever beard JJ anything like that? This being interpreted means be 1b able to pay but Is going to put It e< off as long as be poss'bly can. w While there are few will not pay at all this n slow pay class is legion. By bow much Hail lc to pay my debts promptly, by so much I fall ? In being a model cltlsen. Some men have a way of measuring up " ohurcb members by the way they pay theii debts. When they find a man In tbechurcb p t vho fights harder to keep from paying bis 0 debts than he does to pay them they pasr judgment, and may you be delivered from the verdict.' . It frequently happens with business men of Q the strictest Integrity that they can nut pay A promptly because tbey are not paid promptly ^ themselves. ^ It also frequently happens that good men ^ lull iu (/ttjr uuugctuQi ucrauso luoir UBUIUIB have failed to pay them. When a man becomes bankrupt what happens? Does the bankrupt get together all tbe p property that be possesses and turn It over to 11 bis creditor*? Do tbe bankrupt's debtors 11 oome up and pay all tbey owe promptly Id ? -order tbat tbe bankrupt may discharge bis 11 debU? Does not tbe bankrupt ratber make b over all tbe property tbat be possibly can to H his wife, If be bas not already done bo, and do r' not blB debtors look on bis accounts aB something to be dodged rather than discharged? Queer ethics bold In our business dealings. d "An bonest man Is tbe noblest work of P God." He dUcbarges all bis obligations ' promptly when he can. Wben be oannot be s< so arranges that his creditor shall Buffer no o Inconvenience. The advocates of life Insurance, are boasting of tbe benefits wblch the families of some 0 of our deceased men will derive from lnsur- b| ance; It is about time to take up a hat collec- 8 tlon for others. Some of our good men who ? bave been paying large amounts monthly or annually to Insurance companies, so tbat tbey might be worth more dead than alive, received nonce last weetc mat one of tbelr ? companies was in tbe bands of a receiver. The statement was made tbat tbe polloy holders oonld get a part of tbeir money back b ?tbat tbe liability of tbe company was live 0 million dollars and tbat tbe assets were es- y tlmated at tbree million dollars. Receivers, lawyers and otber6 are expected to get ont of tbe estate a little pay for tbelr trouble in winding it up. Tbe remainder, after paying expenses, would be divided among tbe polloy y bolders, who hope to get back at least forty or p fifty cents on tbe amounts of what they paid In. p A man could do better than tbat depositing \ bis surplus in either one of our banks. " I MlHItlODH. J * The Associate Reformed Presbyterians are j extravagant when tbe subject of Missions is L up. Besides tbe assessment of By nod of about ^ one dollar per member, they make quarterly s collections of voluntary gifts for Missions. ? Tbe usual collection ordered by Synod was taken up In tbe Abbeville churoh Sunday, ji The baskets were banded around, and tbey were returned to the table. After servloe tbe deacons counted the money, and it was found tbat tbey contained two dollarB and fifteen u cents, which shows most eloquently the good e sense of the members of at least one A. R. P. congregation. e 81 We see the statement that Orangeburg Is dissatisfied at the failure to repeal the Hen b law. They ought to make the repeal of the Hen law a campaign Issue next summer. v; n t.

Tbree hundred night riders went nto Eddy vllle on last Sunday morning, took nen from their beds and severely whipped hero, after firing hundreds of shots. Ten >ersons were whipped by the outlaws. If Roosevelt Is the man we take him to be he Btateof Kentucky will be put under mar1b 1 law, and soldiers will be sent there to ^reserve the peace. The despatch, among other things, sayr: ' After the whipping the riders awakened bounty Judge W. L. Crurabaugh, and warned jlm that his Immunity from stlmllar puuisbnent hereafter depended entirely upon the 'rleodehlp he was expected to sbow the Toie*r*r*r\ ifiA uon/ilq11 on Ra traa tnlH bat bla gray hairs alone saved him this ilme." If the Stataor Federal Government will do U duty the last one of the night riders will je brought to the bar of Justice. The Lien Law Stand*. Notwithstanding the faot that strong preeure was brought on the Legislature to detroy the only means of oredlt which many >oor men have, yet in the wisdom and hunanlty of the Senate, It refused to concur rlth the House In Its effort to comply with rhat may have been thought to be the pubic demand. The lien law hurts nobody that will let It lone. Any imputation against honesty of men rbo need the credit which the Hen gives Is ratuitous and uncalled for. Those who laugh last, laugh best. Mr. A. D. Kennedy of Due West, was an tonored guest of this editor one day last reek. He Is a friend Indeed who knows tbe Igbt, and who dares to be an aotlve worker n the right. Full of energy and good deeds, le deserves to be healthy and happy while iroeperlng In the pursuit of a competency ol bis world's gocds.for himself and bis family, f we can suoceed In keeping him from olng off as a Missionary, he will serve a good urn to tbe coantry.

As It 1b, this old eart has In Its deepest reoetses a warm piaoe >r the heart of the pretty yoang girl who bought of him on the occasion which Is always so Interesting to young people. Woman Dead From Medicine A woman died in Union last week, and a by6lcan was prosecuted. It seemed cledr bat tbe medlolne wblob had been admlnlBered had killed her. An alleged copy of tbe rlglnal prescription was brought before tbe inglatrate. No sworn statement to verify He copy. "Two grains", etc., were said to be rescrlbed. Error it seems to us may have een made by the druggist In reading tbe two" for "ten" or elae tbe wroog-medicine lay have been put In the prescription /hlle It Is reasonably certain that the w man led from tbe medicine, yet there is an ab. ance of evidence of murderous Intent, all of 1 rblcb goes to show tbe danger of taking ledlolne. Tbe physician is'liable to make llstakes and then It Is possible that ;the , rugglstmay not discover his mistake and gain the druggist may make a mistake. In 1 ae Union case the remaining capsules that ae woman did not take, were In the bands f the children as a plaything, and tbe other , lost remarkable thing fs the faot that tbe blldren about threw thecapsales In the lire, f the remaining capsules had not been deiroyed the analysis might have thrown Bome gbt on it.

Washington, February 17.?Special: Senator Latimer Is critically lil at Providence Hospital, this city. He was unwell almost all of last week, but did not become dangerously sick until midnight Saturday, when he began to suffer to such a great extent with his stomach that physicians were called In. It was then found that he would have to go to a hospital. The members of the family desired to take him to Johns Hop &1UB, a t UHiUUJUIC, UUt uciug DWUISU iuov tbere was do time to lose be was rushed to Providence, and within an boar was on tbe operating table being operated upon for appendicitis. It was then found that be was not Buttering from that disease, bnt from graver trouble, and at tbls time, while resting; easily, is considered In a very critical condition. Tbere has been many callers at botb tbe hospital and at Senator Latimer's hotel and Congress Hall all during tbe day to ask after hlcb and to ezpress their sympathy to the family at his Ulue?s.

It Is a practical exhibition of the manner in which glass Is convened into various pretty objects, and the facility and ease with which the skilled operator? produce numerous complicated and interesting objects Is surprising. The glass blowers are giving to visitors pretty souvenirs made under their observation. PIG-STY OB COTTON FIELD. The old Mosaic Laws forbade the use of pork in any form, and modern science has confirmed the wisdom ot the patriarch in making this Law. The flesh of the hog is indigestible; sols the fat. Food prepared with lard Is unwholesome. To meet the demand for a cooking fat that 1s pure and easily digested, The N. K. Falrbank Company, Chicago, have put on the market a shortening called COTTOLENE, made from refined vegetable oil. This cooking fat can be used in any and every way that lard now Is, and can even be used in place of butter In making fine pastry. Contrast the source of lard?the fllfKw ttt4+U 4-Yxr* baiima nHTTH u?
