FLORENCE, S. c., Nov. 25, 1900.
I was first advised by our
family physician in Charleston to
use TEErLINA with our baby when
she was but very young infant,
as d preventive of collie and to
warm anl to sweeten the stomach.
Later it was useful in teething
troubles, and its effect has been
found to be SO very beneficial and
SO free from the dangers that are
consequent upon the use of drugs
and soothing syrups that we have
come to regard it, afteruse with
three children, as one of the ne.
cessities when there is a new baby
in the house and until the teething
troubles are, and we take pleasure
in recommending it to our friends
instead Of the horrid stuff that 30
many people use to keep their
babies quiet.

THE SUBWAY AND REAL ESTATE.

There was little doubt in the minds of sensible
observers when the first spadeful OF earth was
turned up for the underground road last spring.
that a new era IN the development OF New-York
City had begun. If there are any who fail to
appreciate this fact, and who are still inclined
to their old belief that the city is paying
S35, 100000 for a "hole in the ground" that Is
f0reordaiDed failure, reference to the changes
that now taking place along the line of the
subway and to the interest manifested in all
real estate affected by this great enterprise
should surely disabuse them. The winter and
spring months Of 1901 viii long be notable in
the realty history of this city. For the first
time since the panic year 1898 the real estate
market has shown some evidence Of healthy
activity; values in several parts of the city
have gone up with a rapidity that has almost
bewildered property owners; transactions In
yolying 1000, 600 and more have been almost
everyday occurrences; great building enter
prises have been begun and revolutions planned
in the physical aspects Of great centres OF
traffic. 1t is true enough that a considerable
amount of this activity is speculative that the
large purchases of realty whose value is sure
10 be affected by the completed subway are
made in anticipation of this increased value
rather than any realization of IT. but the fact
remains that 1t is ordinary boom, and that
it is founded upon too firm a basis to be dis
missed as the clever concoction cf resourceful
manlpulatOrs.
Not all the present activity, however, is the
mere speculative buying of vacant lots, to be
thrown upon the market when the completion
of the subway makes 1t worth while. There
are already, strange as 1t may seem, indica-
tions Of a building movement, along somewhat
restricted lines. for which the subway is more
or less responsible. The most tangible evil
dences of this are TO be seen in the region
vaguely known as the Long Acre Square sec
ton, extending from Forty-second-st to Fifty
third. between Sixth and Eighth aVes. Hardly
a week goes by that new apartment hotel is
not announced in this region; over a dozen are
already in process of construction. and the pub
lie demand for these housekeeping made easy
contTivances seems TO be without end. The
excaVators are already at work upon the
square itself, and Its complete Transformation
is promised within year. An immense Astor
hotel on the west side of Broadway, between
Forty fourth and Forty-fifth SITS, and two new
theatres already definitely projected; and
in the last few days there have been repeated
rumors OF immense business establishments In
! the same district. Meanwhile the value OF
property, both on the square itself and the side
streets. has gone up at least 80 per cent, and
refuse to sell at any price. All this, of course,
is owing in a large degree TO the development
Of the city itself; but that an added reason is

years ago. but he has followed the example of
Mr.. Keene and Mr.. Lorilard, and is competing
for honors across sea as well as here. Richard
Croker also has taken a hand in the interna-
tiOnal game, but he has not won Derby. an
Oaks. a Grand Prix or a st. Leger as yet. and
great many true Americans will not shed
tears if he never wins one. But if John E.
