Watch Your Baby
These Summer Days
LITTLE STOMACHS GET OUT OF
ORDER EASILY IN HOT
WEATHER.

During the hot months mothers
should look very carefully to the con-
dition Of the bowels o. babies and
young children, and, for that matter,
1T is very important in the lives of
people at all ages. Care should be
taken that the water is pure, the
milk wholesome and the fruit ripe
(though not over-ripe), and that not
too much of anything Is eaten.
When trouble results 1t Is usually
in the form Of constipation or OF
diarrhoea. If the child loses appe-
tite, is fretful or languid, and COM
plains of headache, you may look for
constipation. Give it small dose OF
DR.. Caldwel's Syrup Pepsin at night
on retiring, and by morning this
pleasant laxative will have acted and
the child will be it's normal self
again.
At tic first sign of a summer cold
also giYc Syrup Pepsin, as the clean
ing out of the bowels will usually be
sufficient to break the cold. Summer
diarrhoea can be stopped in the same
way by Kidding the bowels OF the
poisons and germs that cause the
trouble. This opinion Of the value Of
Syrup Pepsin is shared by thousands
OF people like Mrs. Ella DenZel, 124

Governor Blocks Barnwen Sheriff.

Barnwell, Aug. 16. - Governor
Blease last night refused to allow
Sheriff j. B. Morris to arrest an al
legged murderer from Georgia. She
riff Morris had been requested by the
sheriff Of Richmond county, Georgia,
to be on the lookout for VIII Rush,
a negro, who is charged with having
committed murder last December.
Rush was located at Olar and war
rant for his arrest was sent to the
sheriff here. Capt. Morris went to
Olar last night to get his man and
found him in the employ of DR.. Lay
ton HartZog. DR.. Hartzog objected
to being deprived Of his cook, and
asked that he be allowed to commu"
nicate with the Governor. He did
this over the telephone, and the Gov
ernor informed Capt. Morris that he
mad no right to arrest the negro
without requisition papers. The
Governor told Dr.. Hartzog that IL
: requistion papers were gotten he
would set date for hearing: that
as the Georgia officers refused to ar
rest fugitives wanted in this State
they would be accorded the same,
treatment. Sheriff Morris was OBJ
liged to leave Olar without his pris-
oner.

Bandit Robs Passengers.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 16.--A
bandit, who boarded a Pullman car Of
the st. Louis and San Francisco pas
senger train, known as the "NIcteor,"
at the Union station here Tonight,
held up four passengers on r, car
soon after the train left for Okla
homa and Texas The robber es-
capped by jumping from the train.
The bandit had purchased railroad
and Pullman tickets and entered the
train as a regular passenger. The
train had passed scarcely beyond the
limits of this city when suddenly the
man stood up end hourishing a pis-
tol demanded that the other passen-
gers in the car give him their money
and yaluables.
The passengers held up their
hands and four men readily surren-
dered their pocketbooks containing
91O6. The ma. evidently intended
to rob all the passengers in the car
and probably had planned to enter
other coaches, but he became fright
ened when he discovered that one of
the passengers at the end OF the car
mad disappeared while he was pock-
citing the money he had obtained.
Evidently believing that the train
crew would rush in on him in a min
ute the bandit backed out OF the
coach and hurrying to the platform
jumped to the ground.

OF eleven South Carolina counties
which last week held elections to de-
termine whether liquor should be le-
gally sold within their borders,
seven voted for the county dispen-
sary system and four elected to re-
main dry. In two instances the vote
was so close that the official tabula-
tion will be necessary certainly to
establish the result. In nearly all
the others the margin Of victory was
very small. On the face Of the re-
turns Florence and Jasper have re-
tanned the dispensary system, while
Bamberg, Barnwell, Dorchester, Cal

return to the sale Of liquor by the
county. Abbeville, Lexington, Will

Abbeville was the only one giving a
decided majority, the anti-dispen-
sary forces in that county piling up
a majority of 55S against the sale Of
liquor In the other counties which
went dry the vote was very close,
Lexington leading in this respect
with majority of four against the
sale Of liquor. Williamsburg with
IA and Sumter with II also seemed
almost evenly divided.
OF the wet counties Barnwell, with
GOA majority, and Dorchester, with
337, were the most decided, and Or
angeburg with a majority of three
for the dispensary was the most
evenly divided. The maiorities for
the dispensary in other counties
were: Bamberg $50, Calhoun 50,
Florence 61 and Jasper 3S.

Dangerous Drug Giving Way for Safer
and More Reliable Remedy.
Hundreds Of people in this vicinity
alone have stopped the dangerous use
of calomel when their liver is acting
slowly, and take Dodson's Liver Tone
instead.
Dodson's Liver Tone is always safe
and has none of the bad after-effects
which so often follow the use of calo-
mel. 1t is a pleasant-tasting vegetable
liquid that starts the liver gently and
surely; relieves constipation and bill
iousness and cause no restriction OF
habit or diet.
Many preparations have sprung up
that initiate the claims made for Dod-
sons Liver Tone, but remember Dod-
sons Liver Tone is the tried and tested
remedy that has proven such a good
medicine and is so satisfactory to every
user-is the reason these limitations are
on the market.
Dodson's Liver Tone cannot hurt any
one and if it fails to do all that il
claimed for it Hughes drug store which
sells it, will give your money back with
a smile.

tie Lamar to the God who gave it to
them to cheer their home these few

Could he have Iived but two more
days he would have been nine years old:
The sufferings of this dear child had
been intense for eighty days and all
that loving hands and kind physicians
could do could not stay the hand OF
death and relieve his sufferings.
But let US be comforted with the
thought that now he is freed from the
sufferings and we shall see him again.
Not in his suffering body. but in the
likeness of the blessed Savior, for it is
said in His word: when He shall ap-
pear, we shall be like Him; for we
shall see Him as He is"
Now the hearts of his loved ones are
sad and cannot understand why this
sorrow must come, but Jesus said:
What I do thou knowest not now, but
thou shalt know hereafter"

But trust Him for His grace,

He hides q smiling face
