SPECIAL MENTION.
The baby show last week was simply out of!
sight. 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

Abbeville's merchants are on tbe "qui vlve"

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.
