C Tr:eres. to the Pab,:c.

A visit to The King" Racket Store
in Columbia will convince the most
skeptical that lis manager, MIR. j. r
King, is hustling business man and
fully abreast Of the times in buying
and selling dry goods, dress goods,
Yankee notions, ladies' cloaks, jackets
and wraps, shoes, and in fact every
thing usually found in store OF this
character. Having made great hit
and created wild excitement among
the buyers Of Columbia on account
of the big values he is giving, he has
determined to reach out and give the
people Of Lexington an opportunity
to take advantage of the low prices
at which he is selling his goods. He
therefore, invites the people of Lex
ington to visit his store, under Hotel
Jerome, and inspect his tremendous
stock and he ia satisfied that the
prices will sell them. The quality
of his goods cannot be surpassed and
his prices can hardly be duplicated.
What be says in his advertisement
on the first page of this issue, he
means; it is a business proposition,
made by business man to business
people for business purposes and
those who want to save money in the
purchase of goods should by all
means visit this store and see for
themselves what be has to sell and
what prices he sells at. 1t is new
store and be is a new man with new
goods and is anxious to become &C
quainted with our people SO that be
can better understand their wants
and prepare to supply them.
Mr.. G. F. Jackson, who was once
prominent dry goods merchant OF
Columbia, and is so well and favor
able known in every nook and cor
ner CT this county as "The Leader
of Low Prices," is with MIR. King and
would be pleased to give his host of
friends and old time customers that
hearty welcome and sincere greeting
which characterized him in the days
of yore. Having had long business
dealings with our people he is, per-
hsps, better qualified than any other
person in that city, to understand the
class, quality and price Of goods they
need, ard he can, therefore, serve
them with satisfaction. Don't forget
that this store is under Hotel Jerome
where these gentlemen awaits to vel
| come and serve the purchasing pub
lie. They study to please.

The board will not meet until July

ing maid of honor from La unta
