The one on Friday morning was one of the most novel if not remarkable ever experienced in this section It began about 10:30 o'clock accompanied by a stiff blow from the South, cold fierce and biting, which gave the feathery flakes a horizontal flight and at the same time many flakes appeared to be ascending instead of falling. People out of doors were driven in by the cold cutting blast In 15 minutes the wind and snow fall, had both ceased and in 5 rmrmfcps thp sum was shininc so brightly that the air felt almost balmy, but the clouds soon obscured it and the airbecame again cold. In the 15 minutes that the storm lasted snown fell to the depth of almost an inch in open, level places. To preserve a youthful appearance as long as possible, it is indispensable that the hair should retain its natural color and fullness. There is no preparation so effective as Ayer's Hair Vigor. It prevents baldness, and keeps the scalp clean, cool, and healthy. Going at One Dollar. The Dispatch is now issued at one dollar per annum, invariably in adtronoo T UUVV* All subscriptions in arrears will be charged at the old rate, one dollar and fifty cents per annum, until they are paid up, when they will have advantage of the new rate. So delincjueijts can see that it will he to their interest to call oy send and settle what they owe at once. ? Harken To This. It is an established fact, long known to the people of Lexington county that the cheapest place in Columbia to get first class groceries i and down weights is at Wm. Piatt ! A' fVs. Those p-entlemen are deter | mined to make 1893 a record break- j i ing year by selling lower than ever I i before, and you will find by calling ! | on them that they are offering ! j greatev bargains than at any other i house in the State. So it is to your interest to go there. Do so. * * i % Paying Investments. Subscribers to the stock of the Newport News, Hampton and Old Point Development Company, Bold jy Mr. C. S. Bradford, have received i handsome dividend, and others will >oon be declared. Subscribers to as j nauy as three shares had a building lot, worth more than tho cost of the stock, donated to each, on which the company has paid the taxes. Subscribers to the first series of stock of the Co-operative Town Co., of Tennessee, also sold by Mr. Bradford, are so well pleased with their investment that many are also investing in series %'C" which is now being sold by him. This company's affairs are on a splendid financial basis. The solid progress and bright prospect of the company are attracting investment from solid business men throughout the United States, as only one dollar per share per month is required until $40are paid,after which the company pays up each share to par of S100.

Consider These Questions. Do you stand in need of any fine dress goods, fancy goods, notions, or hosiery? Do you want shoes at half their worth? If you are in need of any thing in this line and can buy them extremely cheap wouldn't you take them? Do you want hats at half price? Wouldn't you take an overcoat if you could at a figure far below its real value, and also a full suit of fine clothes? An affirmative answer would be a sensible answer.
