I Lunatic** Observations on Millinery. Men In all ages have ioved beautiful women. The Bible aud all other bo;>hs of which we have aDy knowledge attest this fact. A long time ago the styles of diess which beautified and ornamented the human form were Jew and simple. In the gaiden of Eden they were of the least artistic In beauty, and In cost the cheapest. As time passed, the demands for variety of dress and greater beauty of attire grew apace. Then wings were cultivated, and thedlvlntles for a time held the world at their feet. Later on we have learned that the plumage of birds and the arts of men oould better beautify and make more charming the forms of the divinities before whom all good men ^ must lall down to worship. At that time In the world's history, wings ?onil nnr nnvnln no Ionifer moved on the wlDgs of the wind. They set their beautiful feet on the solid earth, and ever since that time they have walked the earth with such a grace that they have carried captive the hearts of all men. Beautiful head-gear, irreslstable millinery, and charming footwear make women of today a thousand times more bewitching than were the angels when the little archer filled the hearts of men plum full of darts. Who denies that there Is magic In a pretty foot? Who can resist the charm of pretty millinery? Who could fall to fall down and worship a pretty face beneath a pretty hat? When sll these lovely conditions are present the man Is a heartless wretch who does not love the woman who wears the combination. For thousands of years the best and most energetic efforts of mankind have been to the perfection of creations that would make women more lovely and more beautiful than the angels. The most cultivated minds along the > the lines of beauty and sweet attractive grace have accomplished mucn, ana a sagacious adaptation of all these refinements has enabled the milliners at Abbeville to be at the bead of tbe Hat lu ornamenting tbe feminine crown. That old and honored firm of R. M. Haddon & Co., has been for a life time selling his taking Btock to all the girls who didn't want to be at the old man's sale. And we believe no old man is supporting a lingering daughter who bought bis goods at Haddon's. And then there is Pbilson, Heury a Co. They are young men. Their hearts are of that age when they best know the IrresiBtable charm of a pretty face beneath a pretty hat. They know a lovely dress, and they Just know bow to dress np tbe pretty girls so as to make them angelic. And they know bow to trim and upholster a plain girl so as to make her perfeotly beautiful. Tbe Smith Dry Goods Store Is filled iu graceful confusion with all those things which appeal to the femlne heart. If a girl would like to have a lot of lovers on her band, she just will not stay out of tnelr store. Or course a girl who buys bats, dresses and shoes from tbem must be careful as to choice of lovers She will have a variety to choose from. If Adam's wife had gone Into one of our millinery stores, and put shoes on berleet, and adorned beeself with tbe modern drapery and then gone home wearing a pretty bat, we know that tbe old gentleman would have bad a fit, or died outright. And so you see that a pretty outfit for the queen of Eden might have changed tbe history of tbe world. In like manner tbe mUllnery, tbe hals and tbe shoes of onr merchants worn by an artlstlaily upholstered pretty gtrl may change tbe btstory of your family. This editor Is not capable of suggesting anything that would add to feminine beauty, but be would suggest that they do not wear large bow knots ou their shoes as they make tbe foot look larger, and detraot from its beauty and grace. But away with all these things that lead men to tbe altar. If you want a cup ol tbe nicest coffee sweetened to your taste, and heated to your liking, just go ronnd to Mr. L. T. Miller's store, where tbe prettiest and tbe most appetizing goods that ever went to tbe right spot can be bad so cheap that you ). , .V,?. 1 . ... l, ??? nuuiuu l fi,uun lunt juu uuugui, ui 11 juu uiu know It yon would be glad of It. Again: If you want bo see tbe prettiest and most attractive views that ever greeted the eye between the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans, go to Dargan's window, where pretty girls by looking inside see tbe figures wblch are prettier than all else on the eartb, In tbe air, or in tbe firmament that Is bedecked by oonstellatlons and twinkling stars. t That old and ever reliable house of L. W. White has tbree stores tull of the prettiest and tbe most needed goods on earth. Tbelr goods are of the best, of the cheapest, and of the most useful kind. That old firm bas come . down to us under tbe tongue of good report. <\ v For nearly a hundred years honest dealing and perfect satisfaction bas marked tbe verdict of tbe thousands of men and women who have traded at that store. This newspaper couldn't begin to tell of half the attractions, half tbe benefits, or half tbe pleasures of Abbeville's trading or business places. In some Instances it is not even necessary to do more than speak of their goods. The reader, of course, knows who keeps tbe . goods which we advertise. For Instance: We published a column ad last week for the Ab- , bevllie Hardware Company describing tbe goods to be round there. The goods were so beautiful, so useful, and so good tbat the printer did not deem It necensary to state where | they could be <ound. He Just assumed tbat ( the reader knew that the Abbeville Hard- ( ware Store was the place to get them, and so | It is there was a rush for them. If the Dame ( had been Inserted the rush might have necessitated the hiring of additional salesmen. We Just cannot. In one little paragraph write of everybody, and you needn't depend on us for all information. There are other firms that can well present tbelr causes, even as do the millinery stores. Mr. W. D. Barksdale Is one of the prosperous men who Is ever (( ready to give ol his bounty lor all good purposes, eveu to the building of a Presbyterian school. His bouse Is full of clerks who would supply all your wants. m m A Xew Face at the Door. And now comes the Edgefield News with ( tbe Dames of Wni. P. Calhoun and W. R. ] Cavor as owners and speaking In Its behalf, j solicits a portion of tbe advertising and ] subscription business of tbe good people ol Edgefield. Col. VVm. P. Calboun, well known amobgst us as a newspaper writer, &1U be tbe editor, and tbat good editor will make a good ) newspaper. All sorts of good things to ihe , Edgefield News and its enterprising owners. ( We would, however, call their attention to a little matter. Alter Col. Calhoun bad written setnllarly for the Augusta Cnroalcle for fifteen years tbe office took fire from spontane ous combustion. The Chronicle Just couldn't stand Col. Calhoun any longer, and no It became good foi the consuming element wblcb took charge 01 the situation. If Col. Calhoun learns to be moderate In tils writings we sbull hope that be may not make tbe air thereabout hot enough to burn the .News office.

( Dr. Andes' Great Prescription, Dr. Andes' 1 Great Oil for &tie at MUlord's. '?V: ISfU , The Cotton Mill. Manager aud Treasurer Moore is now In WU Ulil Ul HI C ftUUCY I 1 1 C tUllUU lUlil, Mr. G. A. Vleaoska is president. Mr. J. Foster Barnwell Is bookkeeper. Mr. Putnam, recently superintendent of the Mills mill at Urtenvllle, is superintendent. He now holds the position which Superln-j tendent E. A. Thompson has held. It was J not rumored until yesterday that a new superintendent had been appointed. The Press and Banner sought to verify the statement by Interviewing Mr. Thomson who said that It was true that he was out. He bad Intimation of the contemplated change Thursday of last week. Mr. Putnam, his successor, took charge yesterday. Mr. Thompson expressed kindly feelfng for his successor and wished that his efforts might be crowned with great succors. He wouldn't give out any word for publication, exoept to express his good wishes for the mill and all concerned in It. While Mr. Vlsanska and Mr. Barnwell bold nearly all the local stock In the mil), it is true that all our people feel more or less interest In Uh success, and are therefore interested in any change that may take place in the offices of that enterprise. It is certain that the local stockholders fully appreciate Mr. Thompson's worth, and It Is equally certain tbat the change was not at their suggestion. Mr.ThompBon has been superintendent of the mill for about ten years, or daring the entire period of Its existence, except about one year after Its establishment. The editor oftbe Press and Banner feels (bat be Is a competent witness as to bis conduct of the mill. Being at tbe beginning of bis term one of the local directors, this editor bad opportunity of seeing something or bis service, and we take pleasure In testifying to the satisfaction whlob he gave. In quality and amonnt ol produot, and In holding tbe loyalty of employees few mi n oould make a belter showing than Mr. Thomp son. It In an acknowledged fact that be made samples of cloth that compared favorably with the samples of other mills, and we hear that bis goods were recently Bold In tbe market at a higher price than other goods of the same clans. We kuow of no reason why Mr. Thompson bould have lost out,and we believe all of our people are surprised to learn that he Is out. But tbe world looks more to the rising than to tbe setting sun. We bear that Mr. Putnam Is a good man, and Abbeville, while regretting to lose Mr.Thompson, will be glad to welcome him amongst us. Tbls newspaper 18 perfectly friendly to Mr Thompson and we have no doubt that when we know Mr. Putnam we will be equally well pleased to him. Tbe Press and Banner expresses good will to both the Incoming and tbe outgoing offloers. * Not Ready to Excuse Him. About ten days ago, Mr. B. 8. Barnwell. Cashier of the National Bank, without any premonition, suddenly suffered from an attack of Internal hemorrhage, which was followed by two other attacks during the same day. The old gentleman, without tonsultlng his friends as to lbe propriety of hit aot, approached very near to tbe brink. His friends are delighted, however, to know that be has reconsidered all thoughts ol leaving us at present. He Is now on tbe road to tbe recovery of bis health and to the resumption of his place In tbe bank. Mr. Barnwell is now one of tbe few old citizens of tbe town. He came to tbe olty soon after tbe war and engaged In tbe mercantile business for yearB. For tbe twenty* two years be has been tbe efficient cashier of the National Bank, and our people love blm. Tbey have further need for bim. They have faith In him. For these reasons tbey are not yet ready to excuse blm from tbe field of activity and from tbe sphere of usefulness. Having been a most excellent citizen, and having served the welfare of Abbeville In many ways be must stay longer with us and do more for us. Tbe Episcopal church needs blm. The Bank needs blm. And we all need blm. He is the oldest member of tbe Episcopal church, having been a regular attendant for forty years. And be has been for that time a pillar In tbe congregation. Although be has passed bis three-score years and ten. be Is a notable figure on our streets. Steady of step, gracelul In oarrlage. squaie In shoulder, with head erect, to gather with apparel, which Is neater than that of an old maid, mark him wherever he 1* seen, hs of the old sohool of South Carolina gentlemen. His heart Is all right, too. It Is not only good, but It 1b young. He loves his fellowman. No man In town has ever done more deeds of kindness or given more oheerlag council or Imparted a greater enoourage ment to the struggling. His genial and frank manners draw us all to him. As a public spirited citizen, be stands abreast with the foremost. In building the tbe cotton mill, he and Mr. Vlsanska were two of the mainstays, when tbe aggregation of mainstays were few indeed. And tbe world will never know the peril Into which these gentlemen placed their estates in behalf of that enterprise. which has resulted in ?uob good to the town. Although be made a close call, Although he scared us for a time, all will be forgiven, if be will continue to take nourishment, and grow Btronger day by day. He must get up again and make us all glad by bis presence for years yet to come. Little Boys Troupers and the Court Home. Shall we build a court bouse out of odds and eude taken from tbe rubbish of tbe old bam or sball we build of new material? Any way will satisfy us, If tbe pew court bouse Is fine enough. We hope th tt tbe committee may abandon all Idea of a bul'dloe Ibat will cost less than 875 000. It ought to cost 8100 00. A court bouse and a little boy's trousers are not entirely different. A little boy's trousers always fit, if the pockets are leep enough. A oourt will fill the bill If it is fine enough. Tbe L, 91. I'd. Let us all unite with the friends of the L. M. 1'b in their effort to enforce tbe law. The I jounty dispensary law well enforced is cer lalnly better than the State dlpensary violated and evaded. ? ? The Record is All Right. We see Dojuet reason for throwing mud or it<?nes at tbe Columbia Record. In honesty md in sincerity of speech, it is not behind ts detractors. Around Abbeville there are idmlrers of that paper, and some of tbe men In our office like to borrow ooples of it. 4^^ Some newspapers would bave us believe 1 :bat Calhoun was our greatest man, Tillman aot excepted. The Florence Messenger thinks 1 Cleveland Is great, and so there you are. 1 __ i To fine a blind tiger $100 for doing business is enough to open its eyes. QQ.ri.

' i ' .r" ' v ' ' DociinipntHry Evi<leuce.,' The Laurens1 llle Herald and tbe News and Courier are trylDg to couvlnce each other as to which Is right about the most enthusiastic ' story of tbe naming of Laureus County." | The Pr?n? onil Hiinner. poulfl i?lve a most In- ! terestlng story, even If Incorrect, along that line, If tbe flies of this newspaper can be relied upon, aud tbe brethren know that the Press and Banner generally has things right. By referring to tbat story as It appeared years ago, we think tbe county was named for John Laureus, tbe son ol Henry Lanrens wbo was president of the continental congress, and who was captured on tbe sea, and wbo afterward at tbe suggestion of the British took np his abode In tbe tower of Loudon for two years. Ills son, John Laurens, whs living In London at the beginning of tue troublons times. Alter attending h military wedding In tbat cliy, be became impressed with tbe patriotic Idea ol coming to tbe rescue of his country. He left Eogiand on tbe alternoon ol ibe marriage and never saw tbe bride again. His mllltery experience In London made him reckless. v\bilewe were not present at the time, yet tradition or history , bas It tbat be needlessly exposed biruself'to tbe fire of tbe enemy and was killed on the Tomblgbee river?being the last man to lose bis lite in tbe Hevoluiionary war. The daughter of Jobu Laurens' marriage married a clerk in tbe Bank of England, named Henderson. He was dnll and not exceedingly interesting to a bright and beautiful woman of charming manner. They separated. Henderson came to this country,bringing with him a son by that marriage HeLderson married In this country. The bou thought his mother whs dead. In taking a post graduate oourse in England, he discovered that his mother was still living. He came rroni D18 [aioer 8 come iu vcruiuui vu nuucvllie to live with bio kinsfolk the McLaurlns and tbe McBrldts. In ibe settlement of tbe marriage or divorce procef dines, In England, tbe property was to go to tbe children of Henderson. Id case be bad no children tben tbe property was to revert to tbe Laurens family. Henderson's mother lived to be ninety-five years old, and after young Hendersou's deatb at Abbeville at tbe age of forty-five, sbe received tbe rents from tbat large estate known as tbe "Laurens lands" In tbls county until ber death. Captain Ed Henderson of tbU county. If be bad been born In wedlock, would have Inherited tbe estate, and tblR Inheritance would have made him rlcb. Tbe story as we have It, Is that Laurens Count? was named lor John Laurens. We may some day republish an Interesting story about tbe Laurenses, whether true or not, would matter little.
