WRIGHT THREE YEARS.

Judge Raymond, OF the eiTcuit
court sentenced three persons this
afternoon who had been convicted at
this term OF court. Charlie Johnson,
colored, was given a life term in the
penitentiary for killing his wife at
Baxter, last July.
William Fazenbaker was sentence
ed to serve seven years in the peni-
Tertiary for robbing John i. Nor
gan.
Mason Wright, convicted Of steal
ing bicycle, will serve three years
and three months in the Reform
school at Pruntytown.
Judge Raymond gave Fazenbaker
sound lecture before pronouncing
sentence. The court reviewed the
case. When sentence had been pro
nounced and the prisoners we're re-
manded to the county jail to await
the coming OF the guards to take
them to MoundsviIlc the sheriff's
were stopped in the solemn process
sion a short time while Fazcnbaker
shook Judge Haymond's hand. Prob
ably this had never been done in the
circuit court here.
Fazcnbakcr seemed to be well
pleased with his sentence and he
should be for he could not have had
less than five years and there was
no limit to the time above five years
nc could have been sentenced for
life. Et
The court stated that he did not
wish to add to the burden of SCmorse
that should be on Johnson's mind
and then pronounced the sentence.
This makes nine persons who have
been convicted Of felony and have
been sentenced&to the peaitentiary
at this term OF the circuit court.

A SAFE VEGETABLE SUBSTITUTE
IS DR.. EDWARDS OLIVE TAB
LET'S FOR THE LIVER.

DR.. F. M. Edwards, prominent
physician of Ohio, has discovered a
laxative and liver tonic in a combi-
nation of vegetable materials mixed
with olive oil, WHICH is in effect al
most exactly like calomel, except
that there are none of the bad after
effects.
DR.. Edwards has long been a foe
of Calomel, thought he recognized its
value along with its. dangers,
His distrust Of tie uncertain drug
eventually started Ihim, years ago
towards experiments with the view
of discovering a substitute, and he
has been for several years in posses
sion of the long-sought-for combina'
ton, which is In the shape OF a lit
tie sugar-coated, oIive-colored tablet
The results Of II years expert
enCe and practice are embodied In
these marvellous little tablets,
They are called DR.. Edwards Oh
i've Tablets. And their effect on the
liver has been the means Of relief
to many Of Or. Edwards regular pa
tients as we'll as to thousands of 9TH

afraid of calomel.
