A TRIED AND PROVED GUARAN-
TEE.
Man Bought a Bottle of DOdson's
Liver To ?, Then Took it Back
and Asked for His Money and
Got 1t.

A man recently tried out the guar
antee which W. G. Mayes gives with
every bottle Of Dodson's Liver Tone.
He bought a bottle and then went
back to the drug store and said the
medicine hadn't helped him.
The druggist just reached into his
cash register and took out a half dol
lar, the price of the bottle of Liver
Tone and handed it back to the gen
tIeman. But he didn't take the money.
He owned up that he was just
trying the guarantee and, as a
matter of fact, he had found Dod-
sons Liver Tone the best remedy for
constipation and biliousness he had
ever tried. "Why" ne said, my wife

Why was the gripe taken out? Be-
cause Doctors, Druggists and Chem
lists knew that fortune awaited the
man able to remove this most OBJ
iectionable action of Podophyllin.
Only few years ago, 20 or 80,
Calomel and Podophyllin was the
favorite prescription of everybody
for an inactive livec Calomel (mer-
eury) and its dangers proved its
own undoing. Podophyllin fell into
disuse because of the intense grip
ing that accompanied its work and
pthe deathly sickness that followed
its wake. The public fought its use
on this account. 1t was safe and
knever failed to relieve the damned
up Bile in the Liver but because Of
its ferocious action, was prescribed
only in desperate cases and then
after all the gentle methods had
failed.
Some of the old-fashioned Doctors
who believed in getting results re-
gardless of the patients feelings con-
tinued it's use and it is now used
by them and by SOME others as a
last resort.
: Bent on that fortune so freely
predicted for the discoverer of a
painless and sickless Podophyllin,
every chemist was busy trying to
take out the gripe and nausea. Of
course it was accomplished and now
is offered to the world under the
name of PoDoLax.
PoDoLax is offered to you as
preventive medicine because its best
results is from small doses at the

London's First Charter.

The first charter of the city of Lon
don was granted by William l. in the
year 1879. This document, written III
Saxon on parchment, is still preserved
andsreads as follows: William, the
king, greeteth William, the bishop, ana
Godfrey, the portreeve, and all the
burgesses within London friendly.
And l acquaint you that will that ye
be all there law-worthy as ye were in
King Edwards days. And I will that
every child be his fathers heir after
his fathers days. And I will not suf-
fer that any man do you any wrong.
God preserve u.s." The "portreeve"
referred to was the chief officer Of
London, the name signifying chief
governor of harbor. Afterward the
chief officer was called provost, and
in the reign of Henry II. the Norman
title of MARIE, soon afterward changed
into mayor, was brought into use.
The first London official to hold the
title of mayor was Henry Fitz-Alwyn,
who assumed the office in 1889, and
continued to hold it "a years. The
prefix of lord" was granted by Ed
ward III. in 1854

RICH, BUT WANDERERS
IRISH CLANSMEN WHO LIVE THE
LIVES OF GlPsIEs.
Own Much Real Estate, Though They
Have No Settled Abodes-Horse
Trading One of Their Prin-
cipaI Occupations.

Since they came to this country
from County Roscommon, Ireland,
twenty years ago, the clan OF Carroll,
Riley & Co. has prospered wonder
fully in a nomadfc way, trading horses
like gipsies, until now the clansmen
own much southern real estate.
The CAROLS, the Rileys, the Shu-
locks and Germans, all from Roscom-
mon, are split up into several camps
and travel about luxuriously. LuXu-
rious seems strange word to apply
TO the mode of life of this or any other
wandering clan, but luxurious it is in
deed, for 1t must be realized that
whole squares in many of the largest
and most thriving cities Of the south
are owned by this clan and held va
cant throughout the year that they
may spend possibly a few weeks each
year camping there Close down in
the very center of Atlanta, Ga, they
own whole city block; all about it
are towering office buildings, factories
and few residences, but the Irish
clansmen refuse to sell or build per-
this property. 1t is we'll piped with
city water and sewers, however, and
when the tents are pitched there for
summer stop beneath every spread
of canvas is hydrant and sink, for
these Irish are health-loving, sensible
people and know and observe the laws
of hygiene and sanitation great deal
o1a fhop do IA tu Of
people who live more sheltered lives
indoors.
In other cities Of the south, too,
they hold much property, in Chat
tanooga, in Nashville, in Rome, Ga,
and Gainesville, Ca, in several
smaller towns in Georgia and other
states through which they wander. In
all their real estate holdings are worth
thousands of dollars, their lot in At
lanta alone being worth upwards of
100000.
Thrifty horse traders they are, too,
and since the members of the strange
organization came to America from
Ireland, twenty years ago, and formed
the association they have vastly in
creased their wealth by shrewd deal
ings, while the property they bought
in Atlanta and Nashville and Chatta-
nooga and other towns when they
formed the association has grown
enormously in value and multiplied
their wealth, though they were in
dependently we'll to do when they first
came to America. Every mothers
son of them as much as thirty years
old or tbereabouts was born in County
Roscommon, Ireland.
Though no outsiders enter the COM
munity, through marriage or other
wise, the laws Of the Catholic church
against intermarriage with relatives
closer than third cousins (and then
only by special dispensation) are rigid
