breaking of dawn will see him killed
or captured.

Columbia. May 19.-After putting up
lame fight, M. l.. Garrett, the de-
generate father, charged With killing
two men in Lee county yesterday af-
ternoon, surrendered early today to a
crowd Of several hundred deputies,
who had kept a close watch on the
swamp in which he was hiding all
night. He was placed in the Lee
county Jail at Bishopvilei and will be
tried at the next term of court
The crime for which Garrett is
charged is the most unusual in the
history of the State.
Yesterday afternoon he killed his
son-in-law, Aaron Campbell and his
sonin-law's father John H. Campbell.
Following this he dragged his daugh-
Ter by her hair to a nearby swamp
where he announced that he would
not be taken alive
The records at the penitentiary
here show that Garrett was released
last July after serving sentence of
two years on the charge of living in
adultery with his daughter. Last
Friday young Campbell married his
daughter.

ACTS ON THE LIVER
DOdsOns Liver Tone Livens Up the
Liver-Is More Than a
Mere Laxative

Calomel was for years the only
known medicine that would stimulate
the liver. But calomel is often dan
gerous, and people are not to be blam-
ed for being afraid of it.
Within the last few years many
medicines have been put out to be
used instead of calomel, but their eff
feet is on the bowels not on the
liver. Hesterly Drug Store says that
the only real liver medicine to ac-
tually take the place of calomel is
Dodson's Liver Tone, mild, harmless
vegetable liquid that Hesterly Drug
Store recommended to take the place
of calomel and which gives prompt
relief in cases of constipation, bilious
ness and sluggish liver.
So confident is the Hesterly Drug
Store that they give their personal
guarantee with every 5O-cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone. You can be
sure that you are getting Dodson's
by asking at this store if they are
giving you the medicine they person
ally guarantee to refund money on if
unsatisfactory.

PROHIBITION RALLY

The Prohibition Rally on last Sun
day afternoon was pronounced a
brilliant success" by all who had the
happy privilege of attending. 1t au-
ours well for any cause when espous-
ed by consecrated legal and clerical
talent, and we are glad to say that
their name is legion in the temper
ance cause. 70 have noted the array
of speakers yesterday one would feel
that no backward step would be taken
but that the time must come when en-
gagement in the liquor traffic will re-
ceive the same punishment as murder,
theft and arson.
/ The above was the message that
Mr. Tompkins brought. Rev. Mr..
Gilmore held the Indictment against
the use of alcohol as being "Volun-
tary Extinction of Reason" and how
often we see it illustrated in those
who partake of it.
The message that Mr.. Bush brought
was that the temperance people had
rendered the liquor sick, but not like
the Irishman's wife; "too sick to be
dangerous" yet, and urged all to keep
up the good fight.
Mr. McRae compared the days of
forty years ago to the ones of the
present, saying when he located at the
countryside at that time there were
two stores there and four saloons, but
that Arkansas aroused herself to the
/ iniquity of the saloon influence until
she now has the best liquor laws of
any state in the Union, and was still
on the road to progress.
Rev. Mr.. Williams told striking
story Of the fight he and others had
in the fight at DeQueen-that after
voting the saloons out some shrewd
lawyers advised the people to at once
| get up a petition to keep them out.
He thought it useless, but when the
people voted them in again, they had
this petition to deal with, and so they
4
were kept out. The whole striking
feature of this procedure was, that
man might vote for it in the pri
vacy of booth, but he could not face
his friends with his name written on
a petition for it.
Bro. Few, the host of the rally,
voiced the gratitude of the assemb
lage in a few we'll chosen words, and
then told of the conversation of Elk
Governor Patterson of Tennessee
the man who has been a thorn in the
soul of temperance workers for long
time.
The music for the occasion was full
of the spirit of enthusiasm, and we
all left the hallowed walls of the
church with a determination as ex-
pressed by each speaker "to plant
our feet solidy on the ground we have
gained and not abate our efforts one
iota until we posses the whole land"

Loss of Appetite.

Is the first signal of disorder and
decay. The usual loss of appetite
is often caused by functional dis
turbances in the stomach. The sto.
mach fails to do the work required,
the appetite is gone, and the body
suffers from lack of nourishment.
Such a stomach needs to be cleaned
and sweetened. Meritol Tonic Diges-

There's one effective way to re-

But they seldom reach the cause.
Backache is cause to suspect the

e. Liberty St., Mexico Mo, says;
at was several years ago that
suffered from rheumatic twinges
and kidney complaint. The pains
and aches were so bad at times ev
en- hypodermic infections brought M
relief. l couldn't bend or stool

that cured me. Since then, hay'
