The alarm of fire about 5 o’clock this morning was caused by a small blaze in the shed or wdodwork about the asphalt mixing plant. Prompt action of the fire department, and the liberal use of chemicals, checked the fire before there was any great damage, though a quantity of as- phalt was destroyed. A stump at the side of Florida avenue, near the residence of I. W. Boring, has brought some five auto- mobiles to grief within the past few weeks.

They will be shown again tonight and also to- morrow night. Miss Laura Mitchell, of Arcadia, daughter of C. H. Mitchell, who I8 known in Lakeland, will come here Friday and will address all ladies in- terested in missionary work at the Methodist church Friday afternoon at 3:30.

Mss Mitchell has recently com- pleted a course in training for mis- sion work, and will leave in Septem- ber for China, where she will devote herself to Christian work, The meeting Friday cfternoon will be under the auspices ot the Missionary Society of the Methodist church, whose guest Miss Mitchell will be, but the invitation is ex- tended to all ladies of all denomina- tions.

Have you been waiting fo~ proper- ty to get cheaper In Lakeland be- fore you would buy? If so, what has been your experience? While you waited hasn’: it doubled and trebled in value? Are you going to wait till it doubles again? The wise man, if he ever expects to buy a business site, will purchase now while the few available loca- tions may.be had at a moderate price. The best located lots in the city, and the cheapest ,are those on Main street facing the Tremont property. These lots may be had NOW at $6,000 each.
