FEEL RIGHT ALL THE TIME.
Don't Let Periodical Spells of Lazy
Liver Ruin Your Temper
and Spoil Your Work.

If your liver doesn't behave right
all the time-if it sometimes stops
working ard you become bilious and
"headachy take calomel, but
try Dodson's Liver Tone.
You are safe in taking Dodson's
Liver Tone. It's harmless, pleas
ant vegetable remedy that starts the
liver without stirring up your whole
system as calomel often does. 1t is
especially good for children who need
liver tonic once in a while, but who
should not be dosed with strong
drugs.
Dodson's Liver Tone is sold by the
Peoples Drug Co. This store guaran-
tees it with clean open and shut
guarantee-your money back with a
smile if it fails to satisfy you. Price,
so cents bottle, and your money is
as safe as if you had it in your pock-
ct. If you need the medicine you
need it badly-if it doesn't satisfy
you-your money back. Buy a bot
tie from the Peoples Drug Co. to-day
under this guarantee

Bank a Victim.

A bank of Charleston has been
made the victim TO the amount OF
$50, according to the confession OF
the perpetrator, A. L. Cox, white
man who was this morning held in
police court for his appearance be-
fore a grand jury in Richland court
of general sessions. He was unable
to give bond of $1,000 required on
two charges of grand larceny.
Cox was arrested on a charge OF
being drunk and while prisoner at
police headquarters wired the Char
lesion bank for s5, giving the name
of w. P. Sledge. The money was
sent to him by telegraph. Deciding
that he needed still further finances
he again wired the same bank for
$50 and the order was honored. Dur
ing the transaction Cox was investi-
gated and it was found that he had
taken two dress suit cases from the
Seaboard station, and two additional
charges were entered against him.
Meantime it followed that he was
using the name of Sledge, depositor
at the Charleston bank. He confess
ed to the chief of police concerning
the theft of the suit cases and the
method he devised to obtain the
money.
Sledge is an employee at the Chr
lesion navy yard. On Saturday he is
due to sail for Honolulu and cannot
appear as a witness against Cox, so
it is not probale that Cox will be
tried on the check matter unless the
bank determines to punish him. He
will be arraigned on two charges of
grand larceny-the alleged theft of
the two suit cases.-Columbia Rec
ord, August 26.

David Kinard Cut.

Last Saturday night about II
O'Clock Mr.. David A. Kinard, who has
had charge of the box ball alley on
the lot next to The Herald office for
the past week, was seriously cut by
G. NJ. Young, an employee of the cot
ton mill at this place, the cutting be-
ing the result Of a dispute over the
amount rolled.
1t seems, from the best lnforma-
ton obtainable, that Mr.. Kinard was
scoring the game and that Mr.. Young
was rolling when he called out 10,
and Mr.. Kinard told him it was inn
possible to roll Is, that he had only
rolled 13, and from this hard words
were passed and Mr.. Kinard started
toward Young when Mr.. Parker Jen-
nings. who was standing near, grab
bed Mr.. Kinard and stopped him.
While Mr.. Jennings still had hold OF
him Young came up behind Mr.. Jen-
nings and reached around and cut
Mr.. Kinard across the back, from one
side to the other, and also on botn
arms. It was necessary for DR..
Cleckley, the attending physician, to
take 27 stitches in the wound, and
while the wound is an awful ugly
one it is not considered serious. The
latest reports from Mr.. Kinard was
that he was not resting so well.
Young was arrested by Night Po-
liceman E. Dickinson and lodged in
jail. He was released Sunday after
noon, bond having been granted in
the sum of $500, Col. J. F. Folk and
Mr.. ]. A. Hunter being his bondsmen,
and the preliminary is to be held to-
day wednesday, and as we print
early this morning it is impossible to
to give the result in this issue.
Sunday Mr.. E. Dickinson swore out
a warrant for J. c. Moore, another
employee of the cotton mill, charging
him with being an accessory, ne oelnS
present when the fight took place, and
it is claimed by some that he furn-
ished the knife with which the cut
ting was done. The warrant for
Moore was turned over to Constable
W. NJ. McCue to be served and ne
went ITO the boarding house of Moore
and called for him. Moore came out
but had left his shoes on the inside
and asked permission to go back and
get them, which was granted. 1t
seems that he did not stop in the
house at all, but went out OF the back
door, which is the last that has been
seen of him.

Origin of the Word "Picnic."

Fanny Merritt Farmer, cookery
editor of the Woman's Home Com
panion, presents in the August num-
Der of that periodical number of
receipts for good things to prepare
for picnics. In the course of her
article she gives the following ex-
planation of the origin of the word
"picnic.'
Years and years ago, when such
outings were being planned, it was
customary to have list passed
among those who were to furnish the
things to eat and drink, and each
one picked out the thing she was
willing to supply. 1t was then
'nicked' off the list. This form of
making and signifying your choice
became known as pick and nick,
which soon was changed into picnic,
and in due time the word picnic was
applied to the entertainment"

A conscience contribution of 500
for customs duty evaded on a watch
was received on Thursday by Secre-
tary McVeagh from a fellow towns
man of Chicago who concealed his
identity. Signing himself "Penitent, -
he wrote this note to the secretary:

Woman Cut in Orangeburg.

Orangeburg, Aug. 26.-Saturday
night at a late hour several negroes
became involved in difficulty which
resulted in a woman, Nellie Bowman,
receiving a very serious knife wound
at the hands, it is said, of Jake
Smith. The difficulty, it is said, start
ed from Smith doing considerable
damage to harness belonging to the
husband of his victim, and on being
spoken to concerning the alleged
damage he showed resentment by in
ficting the wound. The wound is OF
a very dangerous nature, the thrust
missing the heart by only small
fraction of an inch, but it is thought
that the woman will. live.

weapons. Arrived on the spot Sc
fected, the Englishman found "Old
Put" serenely smoking by the side
Of an open powder keg. Requesting
his antagonist to be seated on the
6ther side of the keg, General Put
nam lighted the match and smoked
On unconcernedly. The Englishman
for a moment watched the lucifer
working it's way downward, then
beat hurried retreat. The keg con-
tained nothing but onions with a
sprinkle of powder on top.
There was fought in Tennessee
not long ago a duel between women.
They met after church service, SET
ting upon each other with knives.
Friends attempted to part them.
With leveled revolver the man over
whom they had quarreled ordered
that the fight be to a finish. Soon
one of the women lay dead and the
other was badly wounded.
At Edinburgh two Italians met at
midnight to settle dispute. Having
but one pistol, they drew lots to see
which one should shoot first. The
winner fired and missed, and politely
handed over the pistol to his adver-
sary. The second shot likewise prov
ing abortive, the bloodthirsty COM
batants fell upon each others necks,
then quit the field arm in arm.
First shot was also decided by lot
in a duel between NJ de Girardin,
father of the author, Emile de Girar-
din, and a stranger whose skill with
the pistol was being faunted in
gallery. Eyes, he shoots well" re-
marked De Girardin indifferently,
"but it's quite another thing to hit
a man in a duel" A challenge was
inevitable. The marksman fired
first, his shot going wide. "Why
don't you shoot" asked the second
of De Girardin, as the latter calmly
walked away. There is no reason
why I should kill this gentleman"
was De Girardin's reply. "He must
now be convinced was right"
Even church men have deemed it
necessary to defend their honor.
Many years ago a Maryland minister
challenged a layman, whom he shot
through the heart. At Williams
burg, KY, two mountaineer preach
ers fought a duel, one cutting the
others throat from ear to ear. In
1882 Rev. Mr.. Allen killed Lloyd
Delaney, Esq, in Hyde park, Lon
don. The clergyman was arrested,
tried and convicted of manslaughter,
his sentence being "a fine of one
shilling plus six months in NeWgate
prison.
A famous Hungarian duelist cele-
brated in 1886 his thirty-flfth en-
counter. He gave a banquet to
which only those were bidden who
could prove six duels. An exception
was made in favor of woman who
had met and killed her MANN. Y.
