DRUGGIST GIVES MONEY BACK
Dod,On's Liver Tone Gets Four. Square Guarantee From the
 City Drug Store.

When an article Is sold by druggist who is willing to give it his personal guarantee, it's mighty strong proof of real merit.
 That's exactly the case with bod sons Liver Tone. It is a pleasant tasting, vegetable remedy for a slow and sluggish liver. Since DodSon s Liver Tone came on the market the sale of calomel has gone way down. The reason is simply this Dodsons Liver Tone is safe and harmless and guaranteed to be isfactory calomel is often uncertain, sometimes danger ous, and no druggist wants to guaran- tee that it won't knock you out of a days work and maybe send you to bed.
 The City Drug Store sells Dodson's s Liver Tone and guarantees it. For you and for your children, it's a good thing to keep a bottle always in the house
 The City Drug Store will give you your money back if you think Dodson'S s Liver Tone is not worth the price Keep your liver working and your liver will not keep you from working, " is good advice to 20 by

Big Treat on the Fourth,

One of tie grandest F0uth.of-July celebrations about which we have heard up tO date was that which Mr and Mrs. J w Barnhart, with MT
 Bert Gray in the role of master of ceremonies, rendered their friends on last Friday on their large plantation south of Forrest City,'in the edge of Lee county at which time splendid barbecue and Brunswick stew was en- JOyed, together with an abundance of refreshments and good things to eat and drink. Among those who were welcomed and to whom generous hos pitaity was extended by the famed occasion, we note City Marshal ]. NJ
 Davis, Messrs. Price Me Daniel, A. D. McDantel + ". DeRositt, 5. L. Hodges Commodore R. NJ. Nim0ck, Dr. " H. Alley, A. !. Naccaro, Jim mic Wolfe ". 5, Alley, ]. l. Brown, Jack CasteeieJ 0 Bridgforth, Leo FacCar0 and c L. Rowland, together with the host and hostess, MT and Mrs Barnhart, and Miss Mary Joe, and the master of ceremonies, MT. Bert Gray making up the merry and patriotic party of twenty souls. It is 5ald that aGter the white folks had been sumptuousIy dined, the sixty black tenants on the place were called up and treated to d royal feed, because the fact is well known that there is not a farmer who treats his negroes any better than does ] ". Barnhart. After the appetites of all had been gratitied to fullest extent at the feast, glasses were touched all round to the toast of good health and continued prosperity Of the host and hostess to a bumper crop and an abundant har-
 vest Even after all this was done, 1 there was still a carcass and half of mutton left over, and ali motored back
 to their homes in this city greatly re- joiced and with hearts full of grati- tude to the obiging and generous host and hostess of Clay Hill.

Shooting at C0lored Picnic.

At Fourth of-J uly celebration held at Featherston's schoOlhouse, on Sam Rolfe's place, west of Caldwell, by the colored population, regular free-for- all fight took place, in which one William ASkew and sixteen others, including two women and a boy, were wounded, some of them severely From what we could learn of the af- fair the dispute came up over a ball game, and negro named Shell became peeved about some criticism that was made about his playing. The quarrel grew so hot that Shell went home for his shotgun, and, returning, turned loose both barrels into the crowd, ere ating widespread havoc, as stated above Then, it is reported, the firing became general, resulting in the near, death of Askew and the severe beating and wounding of She'll who is now in carcerated in the county jail

Town of Hughes Booming.

Judge John S. K. Cowan, who had just returned from the sprY and grow ing town of Hughes, Arkansas, in Garland township, paid The Times of- nee an appreciated visit on Wednes- day morning and reported that the farmers of that section were in high spirits in consequence Of the recent fine rains and that the crops were treer from weeds and grass than was ever known before at this season of the year. There has been some little pprehensiOn, however, on account of an anticipated invasion of grassh0p- pers, as this pest has already done considerable damage on the famous 5000 acre New Hope farm, owned by the J. F. Frank estate. W. S Turn ham, the Sawmill man at Hughes. has just closed contract for three million feet of cypress timber, formerly owned by those enterpriSing merchants and farmers, MeSsrs.

Dail, and who expresses himself as highly pleased with his new location The railroad company has just com pleted arrangements to have a plat form constructed at Hughes with q capacity of from 25O0 to 5000 bales of cotton. The Marianna Cotton Oil Company has just commenced the erection of fine six-stand latest i'm proved Munger ginning plant at Hughes which, when completed, will be under the management of Messrs. Love X Friar. At a called meeting of the school directors of the school district in which Hughes is located held on July ,, it was decided to erect at once a modern and commodi0uS school building at that point, on ac. count of the fact that Hughes is the most convenient and accessible point in the district for such building A beautiful site upon which to erect this building has already been selected, the contract for which will be let in the very near future. Dr Hammond and his charming wife have only re. gently located at Hughes. Dr. Ham, mond is the railroad physician and, after going over the ground thorough ly, selected Hughes as the most i'm portant town on the road and the oue offering the best inducements as q To- cation for his home.

Newspaper Errors.

The editor of an exchange doesn't
want anyone to send him any more
copies Of his papers in which they
have found mistakes. If they find a
perfect copy, however, he offers a
big price for it. Same with US, says
the editor of the Crystal Falls Mich
Drill. If the fool critic who hunts
for mistakes in the papers would
find them all he would be kept busy.
We will be pleased to buy copies of
any paper which can be proven en-
tirely free from errors, either in
Typography or in statements of fact.
We will be pleased to find mer-
chant who never made a mistake in
putting up an order; lawyer who
never lost case through his own
errors, a doctor who never wrongly
diagnosed case, druggist who
never made a mistake, postoffice
official who never put mail into the
wrong box, woman who never for
got to put in the salt while cooking
or to put the tea in the teapot be-
fore putting in the water. Bring
on some of your mistakeless para

the papers and We'll give them the
chance of their lives to find out
whether they are really human.

good education at Clemson college

some time professor of agronomy in

He did we'll there but attracted
the attention of the new manage

was offered a considerable advance
in salary and other considerations

however, that Brother Aver steps
a little bit over the line when he

taken Mr. Prosser is Williamsburg
