What a beautiful sight to eee 25 or 30 beautiful babies on dress par?de belore Judges whose sight was so dszz.ed by their beauty that ihey could scarcely tell wblcb was the| prettiest or baud>omest, as there wete blueeyed, browney ed at.d biackejed with flaxen hair, brow n hair and black bair, all making such a conglomeration ot beauty as to almost "befuddle" not ouly tbe Judges, but every one present. And to make tbe matter still worse there' nrnu noL au uei v baby In all the lot, (wbo ever saw an ugly baby.) If there are any two things thai Abbeville Is more noted (or than any oihers it Is her lovely flower gardens and beautllul bright eyed babies. Mrf. Rlcbard Bondley appreciated the honor confer d upon her by belLg placid In charge of this grand and beautllul parade ol bMbles. Three prizes were < tiered by Messrs Hugh WllaoD, Charlie Cobb and Dr. C. C. Garubrell, as follow^: First a pair of beautllul gold bxby pins which wljl be worn by tbe Utile daughter of Mtk. Martin Jones as tbepretueht baby girl under 4 year*, ol age. The second ? beautliul/gold ring will grace tbe flnger ol M*s. h.*L. Dnfgau'N utile sou a* tbe handboiucbl boy baby under -1 ytara ol age. The third a lovely s 1 er unoon to feed tbe prettiest lulant daughter of Mrs. All" Lyou. We don't knew who tbe Judges were, but 11 men we pre sorry lor them > houid tbey ever run lor t ffice anu tbe limits be permitted to vote,for?\ery mother Ibere thought her baby would win tbe priz?, and sucn Is the fact, a6 every I a^>y present was pretty enough to have a pi ze had there been so many offered. Some one bas saiu '-wbal Is home without a mother" and we add "what Is home without a baby?" We were denli d tbe p'eapure of being pres ent.soc nuot give p detailed account of the "Chrysambemum Fall" ai>d refreshments Served. The receipts to tbe baby show amoun led to about $25. The demonstration of "Tet'ey's Tea" given last week by L. T. Miller, city grocer, under toe maiiiigeuieuioi mr#. a. v. wui h grand success and was we,[ attended and every one who ei Jiyed a cup of this famous tet^ pronounced lftbe be-t. Abbeville's merchants are on tbe "qui vlve" thete times, and noue are more f-o than L. T. Miller, city groetr, on TrlDlty street. Hod. J.

Tbe display of tbe great Majestic Range at tbe store of tbe Abbeville Hardware Company was lnlly up to tbelr brightest anticipations. being well attended every day, and judging from tbe great interest manifested b> all, we think evety one "Mi lu love" with tbe Msjestlc RaDge and Its beautiful cooking It is a marvel or beauty as well as an ideal baker, as tbe beautiful brown blsculta and delicious coffee fully attested. Tea banquet given Monday nlgut by tbe Kulgbts 01 Pythias was a magnificent affair, served lu gretkt style and fully up to date in every respect and greatly enjoyed by ail pre* eot. This Is one of tbe largest and most flourishing "orders" In tbe city. Tbe nanny mends oi Mrs. M. V.
