Frank Fitzgerald, the well known gospel singer who assisted in a re vival meeting at the M, E. church here in April, died in Raleigh, Sun day where he had been making his home for the past year. Mr. Fitzgerald was a successful opera singer in New York, and about twelve years ago he turned his excellent talent to the singing of gospel hymns and helped in re vival meetings. He came here in 1912 and so charmed and delight ed all who heard him, that the pas tor of the M. E. church secured his aid in the recent revival meet ings here. This faithful laborer in the Lord's vineyard now enters into rest and doubtless with voice tuned anew he can sing the everlasting songs of the redeemed, because he is happy and free forever more.

Illinois, by a voie of 83 to 58 passed the bill granting woman's rights in the House of Representa tives, June the 1 Ith. Gov. Dunn said: "I have been a believer in woman's suffrage a number of years and have hoped it would be passed and expect to sign the bill after it has been approved by the Attorney-General." In the background of thought, of inspiration, of service as noble as that of any other hard won advance stands the figure of Frances E. Williard around her grouped Jane Addams, Catherine McCulloch, the school girl speak er, who framed this Illinois bill just passed and others. Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, superintendent of Chicago Schools, says it is the greatest act Illinois has ever done. Mrs. Washbern, the reformer, says by women votes that we shall have cleaner cities, cleaner politi cal parties, immoralities will be checked and the public dance hall will be eradicated, The real elite of the intellectual world is taking active part along these lines. Think of Moslem women lectur ing on woman's rights in the Uni versity of Egypt, The women of New England who were cannibals 50 years ago voting.

For Bilious Attacks, Constipation and All Liver Troubles. Dan gerous Calomel (lives Way to Dodson's Liver Tone. Every druggist in the State has noticed a great falling off in the sale of calomel. They all give the same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is taking its place. "Calomel is often dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better results," says W. M. Cohen. Dodson's Liver Tone is person ally guaranteed by W. M. Cohen, who sells it. A large bottle costs 50 cents, and if it fails to give easy relief in every cash of sluggishness you have only to ask for your money back. It will be promptly returned. Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas ant tasting, purely vegetable rern edy harmless to both children and adults. A bottle in the house may save you a day's work or keep your children from missing school. Keep your liver working and your liver will not keep you from working. N OTIOH3 Prop- Sale of Land and Personal erty.
