That Abbeville county is not yet on the verge of starvation is very evident from a study of the published statements of the Banks j of the county. Just because money is a little tighter than it was this time last year, and because we are passing through the day of Re-ad justment after the war is no cause for alarm," said a prominent citizen yesterday. He is an optomist of the right sort and the kind that makes the wheels of business turn, and Abbeville is full of his class and kind. Rub-My-Tism kill* infection.

A FREAKISH CAT WEARS THE BLUES Abbeville has a freak in the color of a blue cat. This Tommy belongs to one of the local stores and can be seen about the square almost any day. Individually, he is a handsome specimen of the feline tribe, and just why nature gave him such * pe culiar color for a cat is hard to uh derstand, unless it be as a prominent citizen said yesterday: "The cat is the only "blue" thing about Abbe ville." He continued by saying: "We all have our cat superstitious and it may be that this particular Tommy wears the "blues" for the entire town." "At any rate," he concluded "if Abbeville was ever affected with the "blues" she is shaking 'em off now, since the good roads bond money has arrived, and the good road movement looms up so promi nently."
