"Calomel is dangerous and people

is perfectly safe and gives better re-
sults,' said a prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per-

who sells it. A large bottle costs so
cents, and if it fails to give easy re-
lief in every case Of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
D0dSon'S Liver Tone Is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no bilious, sick head
ache, acld stomach or constipated

convenience all the next day like vio-

We Should Worry!

Not the farmer. He realizes that

If anybody should worry it is the

some debts, and then

FRANK CASE is NOT ENDED.
Its End May Prove as Terrible as
Its Beginning.

Atlanta, Aug. 19.-The lynching
of Leo Nj. Frank has not ended the
Frank case. 1t is a bigger issue to-
day than it was day before yester-
day. Contrary to all expectations,
the men who lynched Frank have
talked instead of maintaining the
eternal silence which many believed
they were pledged to.
1t is learned on positive authority,
according to the Atlanta papers, that
the party which took Leo NJ. Frank
from the State farm and hung him
to the limb of a tree was a party of
prominent Cobb county citizens.
1t is learned on the same adthor-
ity that the plans were carefully laid
in advance.
1t is learned that Leo NJ. Frank
did not make any confession, and
that the only request he made was
that he be allowed to write to his
wife.
From the same quoted source
comes the statement, published here,
that I'VE would not advise inquis-
tive authorities or persons to try to
reveal the identity OF the twenty-five
men,"
The man who made that statement
is known to the newspapers, accord
ing to the papers, and the name Of
one other Cobb county citizen who
knows all about the affair is said to
be equally well known. 1t is not
known whether either Of these men
actually participated in the affair
itself, but both admit full prior
knowledge of it.
SO much for the aspect of the
case
The other aspect is that Governor
Nat f. Harris has announced that
he and the State authorities will re-
lentlessly probe the lynching to the
bottom, and that newspapers here
and in the North and East are eGi-
torially urging that the men who
lynched Frank be brought to JUS
tce
1t was believed for a short time
after the affair occurred that the
mystery which surrounded it would
remain mystery forever, aud that
an! effort to achieve any other re-
suit would be fruitless. To-day
wide range Of possibilities are opened
up, and the end Of the Frank case,
in the opinion Of some, may prove %
be as terrible as was its beginning.
