THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
The Best Prospect for Business Ever
known in the History Of the COun.

The Best Prospect for Business Ever
known in the History Of the COun-
try.
Abbeville is not alone in her bright pros
poets for large trade this winter. The news
OF enlarged and quickened trade comes from
every quarter of the State, but we are speak
ing particularly of Abbeville.
The prospects were never better. Large
areas have been planted, and the expense ln-
Cured was perhaps less than was ever as
sumed In the production of any crop.
The large area in corn has been wonderful
ly productive, and IL seems almost certain
ID at we will harvest this Fall the largest crop
which we have gathered since the war.
The cotton is as good as the land will make,
and bale to the acre is not remarkable.
The abundant rains have given US the best
grass and the best grazing that was ever
known in Abbeville. With good pastures we
have tat cattle and fat horses and mules. I'M
mense quantities of grass and hay will be
gathered and stored away for winter use. or
course everybody knows that the grass and
hay ought TO be gathered as soon rs the seed
Is ripe and before the frost falls.
So much for the country. The town Is on
the greatest boom ever known TO our people.
Preparations for increased business and in
creased capital are to be seen on every hand,
and the coming OF hrst-class merchants, with
immense stocks, Is the best evidence OF
hopeful outlook for Abbeville.
No town In South Carolina has more
solid or more hopeful outlook.

No Discrimination In the Bullet.

The firing upon the mohs in the
West at the time of the strike shows
how innocent lives are sacrificed by
this barbarous method Of bringing
about order. When on the 9Th ult. the
Second Regiment fired and twelve
persons were killed, but two of them
were of the strikers; the others were
lockers on, one was guarding property,
one boy, the others apparently pass
ing by.
At another firing two women were
shot. one who was on the roof of
house.
Again at Danville, ILL.,, two innocent
women were killed and two men fatal
ly wounded.
In 1877 when there was similar riot
and over twenty-five persons were kill
ed, there were no worklngmen among
the slain.-The Peacemaker. \

BIRTH DAY PARTY.
Of Pretty Young Ladies',
who were Very Happy.

Assembling OF Pretty fOunS Ladies,
who were Very Happy.
Miss Ollie McIlwaine gave birth day par
ty at home last Saturday, TO which quite
number OF her young friends were invited,
and who came and spent an afternoon In in
pocent and unalloyed pleasure. The pretty
hostess was the recipient OF many nice pres
ents while she received many manifestations
OF friendship and the hearty good wishes Of
all her friends, who have been ever loyal and
true TO her.
When occasion permits parents should al
ways contribute to the happiness of their
children, and when innocent pleasure Is pro-
posed they should encourage and not restrain
1t. There is but short interval between
thoughtless and happy childhood and the
cares and anexieties Of womanhood and man
hood. For this reason, let the children be
happy while they may. The duties and re-
sponstbilities of life will soon come to take
the place of the exuberance of youth and the
10y of innocent childhood. Let the little
boys and girls have their birth day parties
and enjoy delightful romps and interesting
plays.

from contagious diseases This build
ing IS sometimes locally known as the
s41nicrobe toaster"
In it is a small room Of brick built
over steam boiler. Inside this room
maze of steam pipes zigzags along
the walls and across the ceiling over
head There are iron gratings in the
floor, where steam can be flushed up
ward.
An operative engineer, called Sam,
has charge of the steam generating
apparatus. The 'sroaster'' is nomin-
ally under control Of the city ply
stefan, but practically in charge of
his subordinate, humorous Irishman
known as Jim"
Sam and Jim did all the disinfect-
ing work, in company with s'Skeet,
Jim's little black and tan dog, who
takes great interest in the proceed
ings-
OF course microbe roasting is not
the most pleasant of vOcations. When
there have been cases, and perhaps
deaths, from smallpox, diptheria,
typhoid fever, scarlatina, or other con-
tagiOus diseases, the attending ply
sicians report to the city clerk, who
orders Jim to go with a large, closed
cart to the residence where the case
or cases occurred, and remove all in
feeted clothing, bedding, carpets,
etc, to the rooster.
A temperature of 212 degrees Fab
renheit, Maintained for a few hours,
destroys the vitality of germs. Hence
the occupation of Sam, Jim and little
Skeet.
For several days of each week Jim
is more or less busy collecting, par
ceiling. and numbering property. from
infected houses Each lot is kept
scrupulously apart from all others.
Great care is used to do the property
no harm, save such as high tempera-
ture necessarily causes. The city is
responsible for unnecessary damage.
Clothing, blankets, carpets, and such
fabrics endure the heat of the micrObe
rooster we'll Shoes, boots, and all
lie ather goods suffer considers bly,.
The city does not make good such
losses, since they are unavoidable.
About twice a week, Jim, having
enough goods on hand to charge the
rooster, signifies to Sam that he is
ready for the house warming, SO to
speak
He fills the rooster with bundles,
large and small, adjusts numerous
side as well as outside the bundles,
then closes the double doors of the
roasting chamber
Meanwhile Sam has fired up"
Now he turns on steam. The pipes
kick and snap as they make war on
the microbes-a1l of which little Skeet
observes with an experienced and
BILE air.
1t might be supposed that the con-
slant handling of infected articles
would render Jim, and even Sam and
Skeet, peculiarly likely to contract
diseases. But the exposure has not
thus far been followed by evil con-
sequences. Jim fairly lives among
germs and encounters new millions
every week.
..Sorra a bit of trouble the germs
does me- he says. Its saysoned

James Payn tells of a friend of his
who had avoided jury duty for some
time by the assistance of a govern
ment official in acknowledgment of
a certain douceur, but he got tired Of
paying an annuity and wanted it to
be done with for good and all. For
210," said the official, II will guar
antee that you will never be troubled
again" And the money was paid.
When the day came for his attend
ance at the court, John Jones, let us
call him, could not resist the tempta-
ton of seeing how his money had
been invested.
He described the sensation of hear
ing John Jones" called out as rather
peculiar. 1t was called out a second
time, and he could hardly resist an
swering to his name. When it was
called out q third time, he felt quite
eerie, and much more 60 at what took
place in consequence. A person in
deep mourning and with a voice
broken with emotion, exclaimed,
John Jones is dead. my lord" And
his lordship, with a little reflected
melancholy in his tone, observed:
Poor fellow. 6catchhi s name out"

Worth and the HaxEler.

Every man has his price, though it
is, in the case Of renowned persons,
occasionally high. No one under
stands this better than Worth, the
man milliner, as any one who wears
his creations can vouch for. A good
story is told Of how one misguided
woman ventured to demonstrate with
him because he charged her 5000 for
a dress, which at first sight seems to
ordinary people an expensive gown.
THE goods" said the lady, could
be bought for 800, and surely the
work of making up would be well
paid for with $25 more"
Madam" replied the outraged
tailor, ''go to M. Constant, the paint
or, and say to him: Here is a can
vas and colors, value 81. Paint me a
picture ON that canvas with these
paints, and I will pay you 33t cents.
