Instead of being dangerous, it is harmless and works easily and naturally, without bad after-effects. " I have authorized J. D. McMillan & Son to refund purchase price, (50c) to you instantly with out question if you are in any way dissatisfied with it If Dodson's Liver Tone can't help you I don't want your money." That's how Dodson feels about this pleasant-tasting vegetable-liquid liver regulator and reliever of constipation and biliousness. The lives of so many people have been brightened and bettered by this great remedy that leading druggists now recommend it and 7 of Amer ica's most prominent physicians O. K'd it, after thorough analysis of its ingredients and effects. It is generally kli6Wn that calomel, being a poison is a peril to many. It stays In the systemand while it may seem to give you a temporary relief, often "knocks you out" for several days. "With Dodson's 'Liver Tone you are set right without ache or gripe and with no bad results tojnterfere in the slightest way with-your regular occupation and habits. So great a number of former sufferers" from con stipation and inactive liver have been vastly benefitted by Dodson's Liver Tone that it would seem wise for you to give it a trial now. Children like it and it does wonders for them. GREENSBORO GREENSBORO, N. C. Bookkeeping, Sriorttanl. Touct Type writing, Penmiiubip.' Write i or catalog Small Tenant House Burned.

Peking -dispatch: Proclamations announcing the death penalty for smokers of opium have been promul gated according to reports from var ious .provinces. Although definite cases of execution for this breach of the law seldom come to special notice, it is reported from Wu Chang that a smoker among the soldiers of the garrison there was caught indulging in the habit and after "trial" before a court was shot to death. Leo M. Frank, under sentence of death for the murder of 14-year-old Mary Phagan at Atlanta, Ga., on April 26 of last year, Tuesday was advanced one step fcloser to the gal lows, when the Georgia Supreme Court sustained verdict of the low er court, which pronounced him guil ty. It is reported that Frank's law yers have not yet given up the de termined fight which they have waged for the freedom of te young factory superintendent. " ' Lieut. J. McC. Murray of the Unit-' ed States Naval Aviation Corps, sta tioned at Pensacola, Fla., was in stantly kjlled Monday when his ma chine plunged into Pensacola Bay. He fell aout 800 feet. The machine was demolished and Lieutenant Murray's body was discovered floating shortly afterwards about 100 yards from the spot where he fell. Lieutenant Murray had been flying over the Gulf and was returning to the station when the accident occurred. An inves tigation has not revealed the cause of the accident. Stopping an Illinois Central passen ger train in the woods near Love, Miss., late Monday, a mob of about 50 masked men held passengers and members of the train crew at bay un der cover of revolvers while they forced Sheriff E.

Wilmington Star. The Lumberton Robesonian says it becomes more evident every day that a colossal mistake will be made by the business men of Lumberton if they do not build a tobacco sales warehouse thereand build it now. The Robeson ian wants a tobacco warehouse built in Lumberton so as to create a mar ket in Lumberton for tobacco. In the first place it takes a tobacco ware house in Lumberton to induce the far mers thereabouts to grow tobacco. One distinct advantage of a tobac co warehouse in Lumberton would, be that it would enable the farmers to to diversify their crops by adding such a great money crop as yellow tobacco. There are few regions in the world where such money crops as cotton, tobacco and peanuts grow to perfection as those produced in this section of North Carolina, while all other knwn crops grown elsewhere also flourish here. Fairmont, in Robeson county, of which Lumberton is the county seat, is in the midst of a fine tobacco grow- ing industry. Fairmont's warehouses had all the business they could do last j year, and if Lumberton does not build a warehouse it is. likely that another i will be built at Fairmont That town ! of Fairmont is getting to be some town on account of the fact that it is in the midst of an ideal cotton and tobaco growing setion. To endeavor to work upon the vul gar with fine sense is like attempt ing to hew blocks with a razor. Pope.
