CAIOMEL MAY RURT YOUR LIVER

Every time YOU take this powerful
drug you are in danger. Take Dod-
son s Liver Tone instead. Calomel is
made from mercury, and while me-
cary ia. many valuable uses. it is a
dangerous thing to swallow. If Gallo
mel stays in the system very long 1t
Salivatcs. Even when it works natu-
rally. its aftcr-oflcCts are often bad.
j. r. !.add will sell YOU DodsOn's Liver
Tone which is positively guaranteed
20 take the place OF calOmcl. Liver
Tone stimulates the liver just enough
TO start it working, and does not make
you sickrr than cver-as calomel often
does. You feel good after taking it,.
1t is as beneficial for children as for
adults.
Try large bottle for fifty cents
under the guarantee that your money
will be given back chccrfully If you're
ont satisfied.

If reports reaching this city from
our neighboring congressional dis
trict, the fifth, are to be believed, W.
P. Stevenson. sometimes known as
"ScabOard Bill" is going to be- right
in at the final when the votes for

Congressman Finley is putting up a

THE RURAL CHURCH.

West Virginia has recently OBJ
served Rural Church Sunday, the
first statewide occasion ever de-
voted to the public consideration of
try preacher and his flock. The ida
struck a popular chord and was gem
orally celebrated and. calling atten-
tion to the powers and opportunities
OF the country church as a rural
community upbuilder, the event has
gone n long way TO create new in
tcrcst in the bigger udties of the
smaller congregations and their lead
ers.
Governor Hatficld'S proclamation
setting the day for the observance.
aside from being the first ever issued
III behalf Of tie rural church, is q
document of interest. The governor
says, among other things:
AS the greatest force for inspiring
better country life and development of
the rural community. the country
church offers the greatest opportu-
nifty and is the mos. potential agency.
In the present wide interest being
manifested in better agricultural de-
velopmcnt. better country schools
and higher standards and ideals of
life in general. it has become appa-
rent that only through the leadership
of the church, which can arouse the
religious motive. can this movement
be placed on secure foundation and
permanent success assured
Upon the activities of the country
minister in the country church and
the cooperation of hts people de-
pends largely the wholesome life Of
the respective communities, and these
efforts in elevating the standards of
the religious, moral and civic life
should not be confined to one day, but
should be the purpose of every day
concern"
Here is call of public attention to
the need for the country church to
enlarge its work and awake to its
duties to the life surrounding it. 1t
is easy to forget the struggling coun-
try church but it is not easy to get
along without it.
In connection with its Rural Church
Sunday, West Virginia has suggested
work for the country minister and
his congregation including a survey
.os--eheir field. encouragement of edu-
cation by lecture courses, libraries,
aud eoopegsr Mish.tse schools as
both men and women and the clubs !;
the promotion of agriculture and the
common interests of agricultural
people: sanitary and hygenic work
and the provision of plans. facilities
and occasions for healthful recrea-
ton. There is an opportunity for
the having of 4 Rural Church Sundar

country minister's interests anG

LEE COUNTY ENDORSES
MANNING FOR GOVERNOR.

Bishopville, S. c.. Aug. II. 1914.
To the Democratic Voters of South
Carolina:-
1t is a poor policy to split mp our
votes among a great many canGi-
dates; by doing so some man that tn"
majority does not want is apt to get
a plurality in the first race and so be
the candidate in the second race, when
as a matter of, fact big majority Of
people are opposed to him. We,
farmers and Business men Of Lee
County, wish II commend to all or
fellow South Carolnians our n"'gh-
kor and a mai We know we'll, Hon
Richard |. Manning. as their choice
for govehnor. Mr.. Manning il Iirst
of all a successful farmer, and next
is a successful business man. He. is
a man whose private life is above re-
proach, whose public life is always
open, who takes a stand to what he
thinks is right and does not put his
honest convictions aside for stand
that he does not believe in but which
will bring him votes. If elected he
will make South Carolina an able
governor, conducting the affairs of the
-Statet along sound byt progressive
lines.
United we stand; divided We
fall" We urge every good South
Carolinian who wants to 70 sec our
State we'll governed for the next two
years to vote for Richard I. Manning.
