A Judicisus 'pqnIrS

A well known tray cling man who visits the drug trade says he has O'ttn heard druggists inquire of customers who asked for cough medicine, whether it was wanted for child or for an adult and if for a child they almost invariatl ly recommend Chamberlain Cough Rem edy. The reason for this is that they know there is DO danger from it and that it always cures. There is not the least danger in giving it, and for coughs, colds or eroup it is unsurpassed.

Ought 10 he g'HtEVys:nns..

We are under the impression :."'' .''.
ed by the importation Of a foreign r~iv:urE;.
AS far as we are informed, their Gears re
groundless, and we think the mill pr"siGrn;s
or the mill superintendent should let their
employees know what to expect. II thry ar"
to lose their jobs now is the time to lei them
know 1t, SO that they may make arrange
| ment.
For the mill operative, the question "fh"!i-
ing his job is an important one, and when
there is doubt the Suapc;;$c Is painful.
The mill officers should he perfectly frank
with their employees. If the mill officers
have an Idea OF disclarglng our " people
10 give their places to strangers and aliens
common honesty aid reasonably far dealing
demand that the operatives should have dur
notice thereo: So that they ma look out for
another job.
OF course We do rot believe tnatHuy cotton
mill would turn eli trained and experienced
hands TO give places 10 anybody. .tS a RUE
mill presidents arc good business men and
know tina: Old hands are better ana cheaper
than new and inexperienced employees. IL
could not be TO their Interest TO disOrguniZt
the labor OF any mill, but as there may be
mill officers who are ready 10 do a foo. ish or
an unwise thing, IL is well for mill presidents
to settle the question, and remove the pr nfuj

The Primary Election.

The primary election Off next Tues
day. And it is supposed that candidates ant
people are alike ready for the conclusion, the
campaign has been conducted on q high
plane. The candidates have neither nought
to iujure their competitors nor tried TO
corrupt the voters by losning him n quarter
The reprehensible practice OF calling on
candidates to give money for churches and
other enterprises has been abandoned in this
county.
We believe that no self respecting church
man has attempted TO sell the votes OF the
congregation OF which he Is a member. And
no candidate has tried TO buy II single mem.

who would borrow a quarter from each and
promise TO vote for each, and then vote for

SOrely Afflicted.

Mr.. w. W. White who has been for Il veal
experimenting the construction OF ainumbei
of fine dwellings in Abbeville is suffering
from paralysis. He was attacked some ten
days ago, and since then he has continued
TO grow worse until last Friday, when he was
taken TO the home OF his parents il Atlanta.
No man has built as many fine homes Stree
the war as has been built under the direction
Of Mr.. White. In this work we believe that
he has given satisfaction to his employers,
and those mechanics who nave been employ
ed by him speak of him in the most afec.
tectionate manner. All are his friends, and
as far as we know, without exception, they
sympathiZe with him in his serious ailment.
Mr.. White is q man of the most exemplary
conduct, and his gentle manners have won
for him the kim regards of all with whom
he has come in contact. He Is, apparently,
between twenty-five and thirty years Of age,
having risen from a carpenters apprentice
to superintendent Of the construction Of the
finest buildings in town, and gave promise
of still! greater achievement.

ShOnld Stick to Chickens.

The stores OF Mr.. NJ. L. Maxwell and OF Ny.
z. Rosenberg and Co. were recently
broken into in the night time. The thieves
have been caught. But they subsequently
gave bail. One gave bondsmen as security,
the other, having 40 bondsmen, gave what
the boys in vulgar parlance, call "leg
bail"
Ihe goods that were taken were recovered.
We have on former occasions advised lie.
eroes TO stick TO their legitimate business H.
chickens. When a negro tries TO steal goods
OF greater value than a ''yaller'' legged chick
en-, he is almost Invariably caught. And
when caught, owing TO the existing prejudice
Of the juror and judges against the pur!oiI
Ing OF goods when the owuer Is not looking.
thieves generally suffer very severely.
We have heretofo re given the negro som"
good advice and re2ea the same here. It be-
ing n recognized fact that there are two kinds
OF thieves, and it being a further recognized
fact that one thief is punished while ;he
other may not only be not punished bul
hold a high place in the church. We suga esl
that negroes study out the difference. The
negro often very 1oolishIy places himself in
the class that Is sure 10 be punished. The
white man studies the criminal law, and Ii
not punished.
The white man, under the guise CT a cuh
tract, steals anything that the owner viii
allow him 10 put his hands on. The negro
like a fool, steals trifles when the owner /.
not looking at him. For stealing goods
when the owner is not looking il punishable
IN the most severe penalties. But to stea
under the guise OF a contract is rather consid'
cred a sharp Thing 10 do, and the people
generally laugh at he fool who is thus rob
bed.

His Latest and Best Achievement

Supervisor Nlckles, went out last Monday to
receive from the contractors the great iron
bridge which now spans Little River at q
point near Davis's bridge and which is in
tended to take the place OF that old aud
troublesome crossing.
A new public highway has been opened for
quite distance. The road is shorter and
more level than the old one, and the bridge
is placed at such an altitude above the
stream, that we expect TO hear of no more
perplexity in crossing the river at that place.
The road Is first class and the bridge could
not be better.
Captain Nickles has dom much good work,
and much that Is permanent, but Dendy's
b ridge and Davis's bridge are at the head OF
his road improvements.

Vacation Nearly Over.

The school children have had II lnns resi-
from their books, and the church people a"p
now IN the midst of their holidays, wher.
they have been tree To stay at home or 10 20
abroad or Sunday. The schmol master has
oeen abroad, and the preacher has not bee 0
at home When the cats are away the mice
Will play. And so the world ways on. In 81
little while. however, the preacher and the
teacher will be al home. The atmosphere
which is now hotter than it is elsewhere, en-
| cept in Charleston, will receive q Slight chill.
| With the cooler days and the more pleasant
nights, sinners and , children will 90
to work in their different spheres. Tt,
children, with great loads of books, will
trEdge away 10 school for study, and In,
church people Will proceed to take up the re.
ligious warfare where they left IL of for the
hot days.
During the vacation our people have been
sober and v~igilant. Their adversary, the
devil, who Is supposed TO be walking abouI
daily like q roaring lion, hasn't roared a SD
gle roar. The fact is, that old adversary has
about lost his hold on Abbeville, but from the
accounts OF unearthed sin which appear IN
some of the Greenwood newspapers, he must
be operating within hailirg distance OF US.
With school children actively STORM. theii
minds from the text books, and with the car
tains OF our salvation leading great multi
tudes of soldiers of the cross 10 victory, WE
may expect q season Of activity in all the
places OF business that advertise their wares
In the newspapers. Readers Of the Press and
Banner should always trade with the people
who invite them to do so. And all who 40,
~vertise in the paper are soliciting an oppof
tunity to give you a good bargain. The fact
that a man advertises MS business is evI-
dence that he has the elements OF success
and those who have good business abili
" can serve you best.
