How Paint
The first cost of a good job of paint?
Devoe?is $50 (average size, of course).
The first cost of a second or third or
fourth rate job, $55 to $100.
The wear is likewise. The better
you paint, of course, the longer it
wears. And the more you pay for your
job, the shorter it wears!
Devoe is one of a dozen good paints
There are hundreds of bad ones. As
likely as not, Devoe is the only good

Dental Parlors.
Attention is directed to the display
advertisement of Dr. M. S. "Whitehead,
dentist, 1521 Main street, Columbia.
Dr., Whitehead has recently
purchased the interests of Dr. Geo. R.
Harding,'the veteran dentist, at 1521
Main Street, and there are no better
dental parlors in the city. Dr. White- 1
head is an experienced dentist, and an
expert workman. He knows the business
and his charges are reasonable.
Give Dr. Whitehead a trial.
PeUon to Incorporate.
The town of Pelioa is soon to become
incorporated. An election will be
held on September 3 to vote on the
proposition and to elect a mayor and
four aldermen. This is a step in the
right direction. This town has had a
phenomenal growth daring the last
few years; and there are many new
residences going up today.
A town with churches and schools
can ill afford to be without police protection,
and we congratulate Pelion
upon the step she is about to take.

The Election Yesterday.
Tbe election in the county yesterday 1
passed off quietly, although the great- tre.
est interest prevailed. With practic- sho
ally all of the vote heard from, it seems mo
that Frank W. Shealy has been re- &c
electied Clerk of the Court over his Ant
three opponents by a safe majority, cur
3im J. Miller has been elected sheriff Ide
aver his two opponents by a good eve
rote, and W. D. Dent has been re- =
/
sleeted auditor by a handsome majority jy |
over Hayes and Wingard. It appears jn>
al90 that C. E. Corley and George A. j
Shealy are the leading candidates for
supervisor and will make the second ra0
pace. Senator Crosson and W. H. bot
3ha:rpe Esq., will run oyer for the p0S
senate. E. L. Wingard and D. J. S. cesi
Derrick run over for treasurer. Hoi- ar(j
yl L. Harman and M. P. Lindler are jorj
in the second race for superintendent
of education. John W. Smith and W. but
L. Addy are in the lead for county bet
com missioners and are probably elect- r[
3d. Warren Weed and Joseph M.
CJaughman will be in the second race
for coroner, it is thought. Ii
For House of Representatives E. L. C
Lybrand is elected on the first ballot. J
Messrs. Addy, Edwards, Malpass and
Shuler are leading, with a probability E
cf Mr. Towill gaining enough votes s
ever Mr. Shuler to get in the second "V
race.
