r ONDON, Dec. 9-Twenty years
ago this Christmas. hosts ol
the late Queen Vlctoria's friend,
received dainty cards containing
her majesty's greetings. These cards
were prepared by the late Raphael
Tuck from designs which were sub
mitted to the queens selection and
approval. -Four years later this sem
slble solution OF the problem OF re-
memberng their thousands of friends
at Christmas time. was adopted by the
present rulers OF Great Britain. then
the Prince and Princess of Wales. 1t
has since become a custom. and the
honor of preparing Christmas cards for
the German emperor. the czar and
czarlna of Russia. the king and queen
OF Italy and the king and queen OF
Spain has also been conferred upon
the firm Of Raphael Tuck and Sons.
Every year a group of carefully and
nrtistically executed designs is sent to
each OF the above royal personages
in order that the final one chosen in
each case may be somewhat repre-
sentative OF the personal taste of the
sovereign.
KING EDWARDS CARD.
The Christmas card of the English
sovereign this year for Instance. has
dignity which Is symbolic of the ma
ton. 1t represents scene in King
Arthur's great hall at the palace OF
Camelot. a large company of lords
and ladies and knights are gathered

the Fellowship of the Round Table. On
the right of the picture, Sir Lancelot,
a prominent figure on his white charg-
er. stands sponsor for the kneeling Sir
Tristram. The original picture was
PAINTED by Howard Davie. Mr.. Davio
has also painted the queens card,

A historic incident in Temple Car

ITALY'S SELECTION.

One of the most charming of the roy
al Christmas cards Is that selected by
the king and queen of Italy. The artist
Is Harriet Bennett, Painted in delicate
tones the picture represents a mother
holding child close to her breast. The
heads of angels with their wings tucked
snugly beneath their little chins are
lowering above the mother.

STANDARD EVEN HIGHER

BY general consent the word perfec-
ton was applied to the Christmas cards
chosen last year, but by comparison
with the new collection just out their
artistic standard was inferior. After
all. however. this is quite In keeping
with the traditions of the Tucks. who
year by year break records in their
special work. The word finis has yet
to be written.

Gala lilies on the border of the
czarina's Christmas card Is a delicate
tribute to her purity. During the IA
years of her life at the Russian court
the Czarina has resolutely opposed the
immoral tendencies prevalent in the
imperial circles. Her own life has been
blameless and she has excluded from
her own circle all those women who
could be identified as participants In
scandalous affairs Although she could
not overcome the customs and tradi-
tions of centuries. nevertheless her in
1uence on the imperial court Is keenly
manifest.
Discountlng the anecdotes related of

The New Cotton Mill.

1t seems that something is doing In the way
OF preparing to build q new cotton mill In
Abbeville. While we have 1t not from biz
lips, yet we are reliably informed thai
Mr.. J. Allen Smith and his family will raise
$50, 900, II Abbeville will raise $4,000. This
editor IS ready to pledge a subscription Of
say, s for Mr.. Smith or n other man
who will build a cotton mill. When a man
shows faith in himself and is willing to pu,
up his own money into an enterprise, he car
add our subscription TO 1t.
The Press and Banner and the people Of
Abbeville want a new cotton mill. And the
Press and Banner and the people Of Abbeville
ought to join teams with Mr.. Smith or any
other man who has faith in himself to the
exte Mt OF putting his own money into 1t.
There is no manufacturing enterprise on
the face of the earth that is 30 safe, so sure
or 30 certain Of good results, or sure to be o.
permanent benefit to the officers, the oper'
ators, 10 the stockholders, and to all the pee
pie Of the city.
or course there are failures, too. There is 6
sort of management, and a sort of extrava
gance that would break anything, but tht
fact that a man has a big sum of money o
his OWL is the best evidence that his judg
ment may be relied upon In the management
Of a big enterprise.
Smith or any other man can have a part o
our money. We want no office in 1t, but W.
want the town to grow.

thought. He should not shut his eyes like an
innocent little bird and swallow all that may
be thrown into his mouth. He should be a
man and form his own opinion without max
ing himself a nincompoop In adopting any

Every shade OF opinion may be heard, but
ludicrous arguments for the clandestine sale
as against the dlspensary should not be
counted.
Prohibitlonlsts can go further for their
ludicrous arguments than anybody. But
that, like this great question, Is 8 matter OF

to believe nobody, but accept all statements
as In Information, for further consideration.
They can take our statements OF facts and
the utterauce OF our belief on the same terms.
They needn't believe anybody and should
accept nobody's dictum. All we want 10 do
is TO give the facts as nearly as We can. The

1t be, when In possession OF the facts. II they

members of the Mutual Benefit Association

Suppose that the members OF the Mutual

make assessments and TO take up collections
OF money for the Lord. Then suppose the
members OF the Abbeville A. R.. .Asso-
citation, should, while they live In
Mexico, divide out a large per cent of the
Lords money among their W kin. In q
case like this what do you think the people
of AIaska would think of the members Of the

Going to Commencement.

Rev. A, l.. Patterson Of Mt Carmel passed
through Abbeville last week on his way tc
the Mecca of all good and orthodox Associate
Reformed Presbyterians. He went to drink
deep drafts of learning froml the Pierian
Spring during commencement week. Weas'
sumo that he expected to hear the Com
mencement sermon on Sunday.
Mr.. Patterson is one OF the most faithful
gospel preachers In the A. X. p. church. h
Is himself imbued with the true missionary
spirit, while some wild and uncontrollabl
reprobates seem to think that the missionary
business has become in many others toe
much like a profession by which TO make
money. He no doubt thinks unutterable
things Of men who do not approve OF the col
lection of money In the name of the LORD
and which money, as far as we are informed,
he does mol object 10 It's being paid TO some.
body's kin.
Now, of course, the reader will understand
that MI. Patterson did not FAY a word OF the
above, except thai he was gong to Due West

facts as to his own life-is guess work. lie

ride on four different railroads and five dif

This Labor Question!

Mr.. Hugh Bigby of Pelzer was in town last
Sunday. He came this far with Mrs. Bigby
who Is now in Elberton on q visit 10 her par.
ents. He says that there Is no scarcity of la.
Dor in the mills in that town for willing
workers. Everybody in that town either
works or moves on. When asked II q one
handed man with q short arm could make a
living In that town, he said that a man in
Pelzer with half an arm on one side and no
arm on the other, was making q good living.
He was surprised TO learn that there was q
scarcity Of work for men in PelZer.

THE KEEPING AWAY OF THE BLIND TIGERS.
There are two great advantages In keeping
the dispensary. We will avoid the bllnc
tigers against which our n%elghbors proclaim
so vehemently. And, besides having the
better system of controlling the LIQUOR traffic
we will have $50 0O annually, as long as 4
lasts. For convenience, We have used the
round figures SEQ, 900. The profits last veal
were in fact, only SIS, $685., being the best apc
luckiest plum that ever fell into anybody'I
lap.
In speaking as we have, we have done 80 ir
the full belief and the perfect confidence tina
blind tigers are worse than the dispensary
and from which no good comes.
We have had blind tigers. We have dis
pensary now. If we believed that blinc
tigers were better than the dlspensary, We
should say, regardless of the loss in money
let them come. Where the morals and the
welfare OF the people are concerned, ever
$50, 600 Is trash that should not be considered
The loss OF GO.OO is as nothing when CON-
pared TO the moral and spiritual welfare o
the people which should not be corrupted by
| either the clandestine ira ffio In liquor, or by
impractical and unwise whimperiDgs OF I'M

WHICH IS WORSE? BLIND TIGERS OR TIE

But whether the clandestine or the legal

matter OF opinion. We think the clandestine
sale is worse The right thing for the reader
