That question settled, there will be the usual rush to secure lots. Atlanta, Birmingham, Norfolk and other cities which have but little advantage over Columbia in point of population, or prospects of future growth, have already advanced the value of choice suburban property to prices ranging from $40 to $125 per foot front, and the time is not remote when Columbia's choice suburb will be held at correspondingly high values. We therefore most confidentially expect ^ 11 1?^.? 1- a 4a vtakyt | uonege fiaue lots tu appreuicujc *cijr ' rapidly in value, claiming as the following reasons will justify that it is shortly to become the fashionable suburb of this growing city. Lots now selling at $7.50 per foot front should bring $10 next year and $20 per foot front within five years, and not less than $50 per foot front within 10 years. These estimates are very conservative supported by die following correct observations. First. Its location north of the city is the direct path of the natural growth of the city. Second. It is situated on an elevation 55 feet above the city, having The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, April 22,1908. Sioots Daughter; Sills Self. Enraged at his 16-year-old daughter, Nellie, because of a harmless school girl prank, Dr. D. 0. Swinnie, who recently came to Asheville, N. C., from New York, fired two shots at her, fatally wounding her and then turning the revolver on himself, he placed the muzzle in his mouth and pulled the trigger, dying almost instantly. Badly wounded as she was, with two bullets embedded in her skull, Miss Swinney ran from the room upstairs to the principal's room before she fell. The iiragedy occurred in the reception room of the Normal and Collegiate Institute, a large boarding school for girls in that city, on Wednesday, where Miss Swinney had been a pupil for the past session. Dr. Swinney, who, up to a few years ago, had been a prominent physician in New York city, has for some time past been in poor health, and of late it is ' alleged his mind has been unbalanced. The young woman's recovery is extremely doubtful. / He Got What He Needed. "Nine years ago it looked ,as if my time had come,J' says Mr. C. Farthing, or Mill ureeic, ina. rer. was so run down that life hong on a very slender thread. It was then my druggists recommended Electric Bitters.. I bought a bottle and I got what I neededstrength. I had one foot in the grave, but Electric Bitters put it back on the turf again, and I've been well ever since." Sold under guarantee at Kajnfmann Drug Co. and Derrick's Drug Store. 50c. 1' ? Negro Commits Suicide. Lumber, April 18.?An unusual occurrence happened here yesterday evening about 5 o'clock. L. E.

That languid, lifeless feeling that comes with spring and early summer, can be quickly changed to a feeling of buoyancy and energy by the judicious use of Dr. flhoop's Restorative. The Restorative is a genuine tonic to tired, rundown nerves, and but a few doses is needed to satsify the user that Dr. Shopp's Restorative is actually reaching that tired spot. The indoor life of winter nearly always leads to sluggish bowels, and to sluggish circulation in general. The customary lack of exercise and outdoor air ties up the liver, stagnates the kidneys, ana ofttimes weakens the Heart's action. Use Dr. Shoop's Restorative a few weeks and all ml be changed. A few days test will tell you are uSing the right remedy. You will easily and surely note tne change from day to day. Sold by Kaufmann Drug Co. Pastor Commits Suicide. Woodbury, N. J., April 17.?Rev.

Third. It being beyond the city limits, a saving of about two percent, is made on taxes. Fourth. The improvements far excel those in the older portion of the city, and are now soon to be completed at no additional cost to the lot owner. These improvements, being of the most artistic and substantial character, argue most convincingly in favor of College Place becoming the select residential suburb of Columbia. Fifth. The splendid Columbia College is a permanent and substantial structure, and destined to exert a most wonderful influence in drawing to that locality the best class of purchasers. The culture and refining influence of this institution will count for very much in the advancement of College Place values. Reasons may be multiplied indefinitely for locating at College Place, and it should be noted that it costs no more to erect a dwelling in a choice location than in an inferior one, and the difference in the outcome is as wide as the poles.

Littor to C. SC. Bflrd. Lexington, S. C. Dear Sir: A few years ago, a New York daily got-up a great agitation for dollar gas, and got it. The State passed the law, and the people liked it, of course, till the bills came-in. The bills were bigger, not less; the law didn't say what the gas should be. \ The price of a gallon of honest paint is $1.75; but there's "paint" all the way from 35 cents to $1.75. A popular price is -$1.25; there are scores of "paints" at that price. Like dollar gas. If $1.75 is the price of a gallon of honest paint, you may be quite sure there are scores of "paints" at all prices from that down, with paint enough in them to pass for. paint. And what are you going to do about it? It takes from |2 to $4 a gallon to pay the painter for doing his work. Is it worth while to pay $2 to |4 a gallon for brushing on paint half whitewash? No; the expense of that extra and useless labor makes counterfeit paint cost more than true. The remedy is Devoe. There are eight honest paints; Devoe is the strongest one of the eight.
