To the Voters oi Lexington County: As the election day draws near then are always many campaign stories sel afloat throughout the county. This summor they are very numerous; and many of them are false from their beginning. A great number has been directed against me for the sole purpose of carrying points, places, and individuals in the coming election. I take this means of warning my friends to be on their guard, and take no notice of such false and slanderous reports. My public and private record is before the people, and I am quite willing to stand upon it. All charges that I have made sire founded upon fact, and I defy contradiction. The proficiency of the work done during my administration as Clerk oi the Court has never been questioned, even by my political enemies; and everyone who has had work done with me knows that I have saved a great amount of money to the public by reducing the fees. During this campaign, as in all previous ones made by me, I have endeavored to condncfc a clean campaign? using only snch matter as the records themselves will bear me out. It has never been my policy to use flimsy and slanderons material to win votes or a nomination. I desire here to publicly thank my friends for their past support, personally and politically, and I promise here and now a faithful performance of every duty devolving upon me. Very sincerely yours, Frank W. Shealy. t 4 Tltie Lyric Columbia's favorite little theatre, this week, is the center of attraction for all lovers of amusement and fine pictures.

Mad at Paint 25c a gallon for paint is about $2.5i on the average job, and lots of mei waited last year for that; but the; didn't reckon; they got mad; wouldn' pay it. There- aie times to get mad and re fuse to pay; but when one's propert; needs protecting is no time to get ma< and not paint. Besides, it costs more to get; ma and wait than to paint. Getting mad doesn't do any good t your property; paint does it good b keeping-out water; no water no rot no paint, some water and rot; and little rot is more than enough co mak a man liberal toward his painter an paint. Paint costs not a cent. All the pair in the world, so long as it keeps-ot water, costs not a cent, DEVOE Harmon Drug Co. t Buyer lobes?
