ACTS ON The LIVER.
DOdSOn'S Liver Tone LiveDS Up the LiV
er-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
blamed for being afraid of it.
Within the last few years many
medicines have been put out to be
used instead of calomel, but their
effect is on the bOwelS-not on the
liver. DR. w V Brockington says
that the only real liver medicine to
actually take the place of calomel is
Dodson's Liver Tone, a mild, harm.
less, vegetable liquid that he recon-
mends to take the place of calomel
and which gives prompt relief in
cases of constipation, biliousness and
sluggish liver.
So confident is DR. Brockington
that he gives his personal guarantee
with every 50-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 personally guar.
antee to refund money on if unsat-
isfactory. adv

1t is e dull season in matters
political when the Hon John =
Grace, mayor of the city of Charles
ton, does not attempt to raise some
kind of disturbance. Mayor Grace's
latest exhibition in his particular
line is an effort to hold up the seat
ing of Hon Richard S Whaley,
Congressman-elect from the First
district. Mayor Grace fought
against Whaley's election to the
very last ditch, and when his efforts
failed of accomplishment, he whines
like a sulky child, alleging that
Whaley didn't play fair" in the
political game. If the honorable
Mayor OF charleston would refresh
his memory bit he might recall
that some pretty ugly things were
said anent his political methods
during and after the strenuous cam
paign that landed him in the
Mayors office. With all confidence
we predict that Congressman Wha-
ley will take his seat, to which he is
declared elected by the State Demo-
cratic Executive committee, with
out any serious inconvenience or
embarrassment, Mayor Grace to the
contrary Notwithstanding.

Senator Tillman says that il
the lowering or abolition of tar
iff rates is to bring about soup
houses and a general shut down,
the sooner the better That is
the most sensible ut.erance We
have heard from Senator Tillman
since many moons. The Demo
cratic party's tariff doctrine is on
trial and if it be a failure, the
sooner the country at large finds
it out the better for us all. But
we do not believe that tariff re-
vision downward will be a failure.
