The Subject Briar Clothing.
V
From the earliest aocounts of the move
ments of the Adam's descenden lb, tbe mattei
of clothing tbe human form has always ueei
an Important consideration, and never failed
to receive the best attention alike from salm
and sinner. The different conditions and th<
different temperature of the varying atmos'
phere it Is supposed had something tod(
with the different kinds of clothing whlot
were worn by different kinds of people
And as time passed, and as civilization advanced
the styles changed. For Instance:
Grandmother Eve was happy in big flf
leaves.
Other women were simply clothed wltt
salvation.
Some were clothed with soarlet.
Some were clotbed with honor.
The rich were clothed in purple and fine
linen.
Some of tbe angels were satisfied with ai
insubstantial a vestment as a cloud.
And some women were better pleased with
being dressed with tbe sun.
A few of tbe self-conceited set wore purple
and fine linen, and stepped on poor people'c
favorite corns then as now.
Our Saviour seeing tbe tendtnoy ot the
human raoe, warned tbe people by telling
them to "take no thought*' as to bow wt
"shall be clothed."
r- - ' That was long before H. G. Anderson & Co
aatoKHohoH tHafv nlnthlno at or A in Ahh^vlllA
and many years before the people learned 01
the style, the beaaty of the goods, the cheapness
of the price, and the fascinating powei
of a good looking man when dressed In e
salt of their clothes.
This firm is a sort of Missionary for Cupid
When young gentlemen buy tbelr clothing
from H. G. Anderson <k Co., they take the
first plaoe In the estimation of all with whom
they come In contact. Men on the street
admire a well dressed man. Women everywhere
are pleased to see a well dressed man.
Bat when a man goes oonrtlng in a suit 01
H. G. Anderson & Co's clothes, the adored
queen of hearts simply says: "Here I am,
take my heart and seal It."
A good looking young man, dressed In H
G. Anderson & Co's clothes Is simply irresistible,
and he is sure to carry captive the
sweetest heart that ever warmed a bachelor'*
poor old life preserving foroe pump.
Bnt, for fear yon do . not folly understand
our story of the great bargains wblcb are now
being offered by H. G. Anderson A Co., you
had better oall early If yon want the best and
the moat stunning suit Id tbelr stock. Many
buyers of goods have been crowned by tbe
band and heart of those before whom all
good men should fall down and worship.
Synod's Beat Act.
The best tnlng that the recent Associate
Reformed Synod did was the election of Rev.
J. 8.MoffaU,;D. D., to the Presidency or Ertklne
College. Viewed from this standpoint, It
seems to us that Ersklne College Is entering
upon a career of unprecedented usefulness,
and that tbe church Itself Is on the eve of a
season of great prosperity. President Moffatt
will bring new life and greater activity to tbe
councils and to tbe business methods of tbe
cbnrcb. He Is a born leader of men, and bis
tact makes blm a forceful faotor in whatever
be undertakes.
It was fortunate, too, for tbe college tbat
Dr. Moffatt oomea from tbe First Presbytery,
wblch In fact Is one-balf of tbe Associate Reformed
8ynod, both as to members and tbe
amount of contributions. (It is,therefore,rlgbl
and proper tbat tbe President of tbe College
oomes from the strongest Presbytery In the
Synod. Up to tbe time of his election to tbe
Presidency be was pastor of tbe cburoh at
Chester. Largely through bis Influence
Chester Is a stronghold of Secederlsm. While
loyal to tbe chnrob, bis generosity of thought
and liberality of action have been a force In
the prosperity of the First Presbytery. HI*
presence amongst us will give new life and
a waxen greater zeai in oar people lor ine uplifting
ot tbe church in this Presbytery, and
especially will he be a factor In giving
strength and Influence to the Colleges In
Due West, of which all of our citizens take s
pride. We learn that the prospects for the
Colleges were never brighter or more encouraging.
All of tbe Second Presbyter}
welcomes Doctor Moffatt and bis family
wltbln our forces. Mrs. Moffatt was Mist
Jennie Grler, daughter of Dr. W. M. Grler.
She Inherited many of tbe qualities of mind
and heart for which her father was distinguished,
and so yon tee Dr. Moffatt's hand?
are held up, and he Is sustained In his own
efforts by tbe greatest power on earth?tbe
oounsel and sympathy of an Intellectual
woman possessing a good heart.

Mast Not Be Disappointed.
Tbe Dally Mall bad a representative In
Dne West one day last week, and, besides
saying some very pleasant things about tbe
town, said that eome of tbe peoplealong the
route are of tbe opinion that' tbe railroad
from Due West will never be completed.
Our good friend, tbe Dally Mall, must not
forget that they are today as In former times,
prophets of evil. As this newspaper understands,
tbe Southern promised tbe Due West
people to either rent or sell the old Iron that
the Greenville and Columbia road would replace
with new Iron. And we are here to tell
you, what tbe Southern promises It will do
Tbe railroad from Due West to Donalds will
be completed. Tbe only dlsappulntment to
us at Abbeville was In the fact that our good
neighbors at Due West turned their eyes to
Donalds, instead of toward Abbeville. But
tbe Daily Mall need have no doubt that the
railroad to Donalds will be an accomplished
fact.
Due West baa long needed and wanted a
railroad, and that town will not now be die*
appointed by tbe Southern. But In case disappointment
sbonld oome an electrlo car
could be run on the line.
The Democracy Perplexed.
Talk as to the desirability or undeslrablllty
of nominating a Southern man for President
Is again going on In some of tbe newspapers.
We believe New York financiers are not willing
to elect a Southern man. and If Southern
men do not vote for Northern candidate, how
are the Democrats to elect anybody?
Inouroplnlon.lt makes no sort of difference
who tbe nominee may be or from what
section tbe Democratic leader may come. He
will not be elected. The present prosperity
lessens tbe desire for a change or lor the dlb'
larbance of existing conditions. Tbe party
that promised a full dinner pall has kept tbe
faith, and there Is now no special need for
filling up the Panama canal or for throwing
,i away the Philippine Islands.

Mr. W. R. Bradley, one of the owners of tbls j
paper, Is a good Seoeder, and a strlot Sabbata- ,
rlan, who wouldn't walk oat lo the fresh air
on a Sabbath afrernoon, except for the benefit ,
of hU health, or to relieve the distressed. (
He has a number of the nicest little boys that (
. ever gladdened a father's heart or made 1
joyous the mother's life. He didn't need any
exerolse himself last Sunday, but he thought
: a little walking would do good to the children.
Taking them by the hand, father and
1 sons went toward the Seaboard station, by
which It was expeoted a train would soon
pass. Standing around among the waiting
crowd, he observed several cases of small pox
' ?people whose faces had good scales on
them.
What do you think Mr. Bradley thought?
Do you think be thought that he and his
r children ought to have stayed at home? No.
1 Not ezaotly that. But be thought those who
1 bad the small pox ought to have stayed at
1 home. And It wouldn't surprise us at all If
5 the good mother Joined him In opinion as to
who ought to have stayed at home.
i As vaccination prevents Bmall pox, we
1 think that those who have the disease
* should go about at their pleasure. A small
" pox patient can't give the disease to any one i
who would become Immune by vaoclnatlon.
: In a free country, we think that people
wbo want the disease should be allowed to
1 have it. We take no sort of stock la the
effort or our Medical authorities who try to
prevent anybody from going at large because
of fear that he may meet Bomebody that
' hasn't had the small pox.

Hospital for Abbeville. ,
i One of tbe marks of an up-to-date city le
good hospital facilities. While Abbeville Is j
* ahead of all her sister oltles along every other
> line of progress, It Is true that we have built
no hospital for our sick. The necessity for 1
> such an institution Is now being urged and
: measures will soon be Inaugurated to supply .
> tbe demand.
Abbeville baa better physicians and more of
> tbem, and fewer sick people than any town j
, of its Bize in the State, bat If we should get \
I sick, we wonia need trained nurses. and bos- (
pltals. Typhoid fever, for Instance, can be .
' more-easily and more successfully treated In a '
i hospital than In oar homes?If we should ever (
happen to have a oase of It
In oases, too, where onr little boys fall oat
: of frolt trees, and break their arms, tbfej need
! oot go to the expense of a trip to Atlanta.
In case the hospital Is built by subscriptions
tbe owners of tbe Press and Banner hope
that tbey may not be slighted by the canvassing
committee. They just dare tbe committee J
to come. i

Not to Vome. '
Effort was reoently made to secure the re- (
lease of J. Y. Jones from the hospital lor the
Insane and oounter effort was made to keep
him. Mrs. Jones went down and made application
through her attorney Judge Benet,
and with certificate from Sheriff Lyon. Mr. '
Thomas N. Tolbert, father of Mrs. Jones, went {
to Columbia and was present before Dr. Baboock
when Mrs. Jones was there. Mr. Tol- 1
bert protestested against the release and so (
It is, Mr. Jones is still in tbe hospital for the
Insane. I

Tarn-Table Broke. ,
b
The turn-table at tbe Sootbern station j,
broke very unexpectedly one day last week, ^
and so it Is tbe engine rnns to Hodges faoe
foremost, but It backs out when returning to a
Abbeville. Tbe turn-table has something of v
a history. It once belonged to the old Cum- {
berland Gap, and swung around tbe engines
for that great road for a time at Edgefield. v
but It was moved to Abbeville about ten j(
years ago. It Is of iron. One side is broke. f

Good For Sheriff Lyon.
Abbeville County may Justly be proud of f
Sheriff Lyon. He Is one of tbe most efflolent
officers In tbe State. While be Is a terror to
evil doers be Is one of tbe most courteous i
officers that tbe oounty bas ever bad. As f
fearless as Julius Caesar, be Is nevertheless :
cool and collected In handling tbe criminal t
class. It would be (oily to go Into details In >
speaking of Sheriff Lyon's work for not a .
week paaaes that there is not some new evidence
of the value of his services.
Yesterday afternoon, he picked up Julias f

His life bad been one of oonatantand faithful

On Monday night General Light preached
n tbe doctrine of Entire Sanctlflcatlon, bas
g bis remarks on the text, "And the very
lod of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray
)od yoor whole spirit and soul and body be
reserved blameless unto tbe coming of oar
Mrd Jesus OtJr 1st." 1 Tb&ss. 5:23.
He said, In part, "Tbe word 'sanctlficatlon'
as, at least, a twofold meaning In aorlpture.
t means, first, to set apart for holy and relig
dub use, and in tbls sense ol tbe term tbe
arsons desiring to be made holy are required
9 act In obedience to such command* as:
iaootlfy yourselves, therefore, and be ye
oly.' They set themselves apart from tbe
rorld to no longer Indulge themselves in tbe
slflsh, carnal, and wicked habits, practices
nd self-gratifications of tbe carnal mind, bat
a be ased for tbe glory ol Qod and to be boly.
be seoond meaning of tbe word Is, toallente
or separate from sin, to purify tbe nffeelons
and exalt to tbe supreme love of God.
a this sense of the word God sanctifies. Hitone
can purify and make holy, but so noou

e., set himself apart for boly and religious
se, In tbe sense already stated, God will puIfy
and make holy.
"We know, from the text of tbe most subme
prayer whloh tbe Apostle Paul offered to
(od In oebalf of tbe ThesealODlan Cbarcb.
Dd which is still before Him In behalf of all
tie Christiana of tbe different evangelloal
hurches of the world, 'And tbe very God ol
eace sanctify you wholly; and 1 pray God
our whole spirit, soul and body be preserved

erfeot sanctlficatlon, and that tbe persons
'ho are entirely sanctified are In snob an attudti
before God tbatHeoan preserve tbem

"In the first clause ol the prayer we find tht
ord wholly,?wholly, not holy, but w-h-o-1y,
tbe definition of which Is completely, enrely,
perfectly, and It has tbe opposite mean
ig of Incompletely, partially, Imperfectly;

"We find the motive which prompted Fan

ou wholly.' indicated by tbe language of tht
jcood clause of his prayer, 'And I pray Goo
our whole spirit, soul and body be preserved
lameiess unto tbe coming of our Lord J?su>

ray thus, arose from tbe longing deslrt
hicb be had tbat tbe persona for whom h<
rayed might be brought Into the blenseo
?te in wblcb tbey could be preserved blamtiss,
moment by moment, even 'unto the com
ig of our Lord Jesus Christ,' or, be kept, not
aly from committing actual, wilful, lnten
onal and conscious sin, but also Irom tbe de
re to do so, moment by moment, through an
nitre life time. 1 bat the Apostle knew, from
ersonul experience tbat It was possible for
le brelhren of tbe Thesealonlan Oburoh to

ict that he said to them: 'Faithful Is Be

"After they were thus sand fled, they noi

but were also without the disposition to

that 'Faithful 1s He that calieth yon, who

by the perfectly obedient sons and
aughters ot C4od, Is Known : Hougan Clark,
[. D., Quaker. Professor of Latin ana Greek,
ariharn College, alter being wholly saDCtl

Id you get?" "A clean heart, I was baptized
lth the Holy Ghost, and my heart was purled
by faith. The endowment of power, for
hatever spiritual power I have been pos;ssed
of since, either lor winning sinners to
hrlst or bringing believers to entire ennctlflitlon
by consecration and faith in Jesus, i
ate It from that blessed day and hour, a
bleb time I did then and there reckon my:lf
dead unto sin and alive unto God,
irough Jesus Christ my Lord."
Daniel tSteel, X). D., Methodist, Professor in
oston University, says: "I have the Jobanean
evidence that my love Is pure and nnilxed?that
is, perfected?in the fact that I
ave boldness Id vlewof the day of Judgment
John i, 17, 18). This Joyful boldness lt>
rounded on the assurance of a conformity to
ie Image of the Son of God, and that I am,
irough the transforming power ol the Splr,
like Him in purity, and that the Judge
ill not condemn facsimiles of Himself, beiuse,
even as He is, so are we iu this world.
"Rev. Esgar M. Levy, D. IX, Baptist, was flatly
persuaded to accept the duclrlue ot
anctlflcatlon, by reason ot the Ihci that be
as forced to believe that 'Oor Confession oi
altb' taught him to do so, tha< in his'Coveant'

his life as to enable him to 'siaud comlete

Anna M. Hammer, Episcopalian, says : "I
ave no doubt as to my conversion, tbat I
us 'born again,' tbat being dead In trespass>
and slnH, I wan made 'alive In God. At
le time of my anointing by the Holy Spirit
was living a consecrated life of faltb and serIce.
My sancllflcatlon wax a second Actual

om condemnation. O, the delights of a life
holly given up to God."
