In contest among the agents of

In a contest among the agents OF
the Southeastern Insurance compa-
nv. waged all over the State, to see
who would secure the greatest
amount Of Insurance during the
month of November, we note from
the report just issued by the home
Office at Greenville that MIR Ira n
Calhoun, the Southeastern's repre-
sentative at this place, stands second
in point Of business getting. having
placed policies representing total
insurance of $4,000. In view of the
fact that Mr. Calhoun is new agent
in this locality, the amount of busi-
ness .he has written. plainly indi-
Gates that he is a hustler, also that
he has something worth while to offer
in the way of life insurance.
Owing to a delay in the arrival of
the films for the great Paramount
Film Co.'S play, The Governors
Lady," advertised to be shown at
the Uwana Theatre Monday night,
this feature had to be postponed.
The films. however, came in Tues.
day and The Governors Lady" wse
shown in connection with the great
serial story play, The Diamond
from the Sky" that night. An
other Paramount play will be shown
at the Uwana tomorrow friday
night. Those who saw The Gov
ernor's Lady" are enthusiastic in
praising the merits Of this new film
service the Uwana management has
contracted for. The regular sched-
ule of these great features calls for
Monday and Friday nights, and if
they are not given on these nights
the public may rest assured that it
is not the fault of the Uwana people.
The Kingstree fire department has
recently added to its fire fighting
equipment a ne,lwell trained horse.
The animal is a 1.400 pound bay,
formerly the property of the Sum-
ter fire department, and will be used
for drawing the hose wagon. The
Sumter fire department, having in
stalled motor apparatus, had no fur
ther use for this horse and offered
it for sale. Members of the local de-
partment got busy and soon raised
nearly enough money by popular
subscription to pay for the animal.
Messrs T C Jacobs and H H King
went to Sumter last week and made
the purchase. A stall has been pro-
vided at the town hall building, and
the horse will be kept therein. con-
venient to the truck. A sleeping
room has also been fitted up in the
building and during the winter,
when fires are more likely to occur.
two members Of the department will
sleep there. 50 as to be on the job
promptly when an alarm is given.

COMMON PLEAS COURT.
LONGEST Session Held Here In
Many Years Closed Saturday

From Monday morning of last
week until Saturday afternoon the
court of common please was in daily
session here clearing the docket of a
great many old cases that had been
carried over from term to term for
several years past. In fact one case
was disposed of that dated back to
1909, and it's great wonder that
the poor fellow who was plaintiff
in the case hadn't become disgusted
long ago and given up the case be-
fore he had to. This was the case
of man suing a railroad company
for damages for personal injury and
since he didn't "croak" in the in
terim it's no surprise that the jury
decided against him.
Many other cases of long stand
ing were settled; some of them 60
ng to a jury while others were
ruled upon by his honor, Judge
Shipp, whose broad knowledge of
the law combined with his patient.
courteous demeanor on the bench
has won for him the highest respect
and esteem of members CT the loca
bar and other court officials.
The adjournment Saturday was a
relief to the thirty-six jurors and a
number of witnesses, many of whom
had come long distances every morn-
ing through the cold crisp atmos-
phere in order to be on hand when
Crier Smith announced the opening
of the days session at $3.50. Besides,
the Judge and visiting attorneys
could return home to their families
and pass Sunday without any Of the
weighty problems of law disturbing
their equilibum. for it was all set
tied and they did not have to return
Monday.
Judge Shipp, however, did return
here yesterday, for the purpose OF
joining some of the local sportsmer
on a deer drive today and tomorrow

TRY 1T! SUBSTITUTE FOR
NASTY CALOMEL,
Starts Your Liver without Max
ing You Sick and Can
not SaIiVate.

Every druggist in town your
druggist and every ybody's druggist
has noticed great falling-off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. DodSon's Liver Tone is
taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it,,while Dodson's Liver Tone is
is perfectly safe and gives better re-
suits" said prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is person
ally guaranteed by every druggist
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.
Dodson's Liver Tone is pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipat-
ed bowels. 1t doesn't gripe or cause
inconvenience all the next day like
violent calomel. Take a dose of cal
omel today and tomorrow you will
feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't
lose days work! Take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full
of vigor and ambition.

The love rOmances-in fact, there
are three but Of course only one that
is paramount, in the beautiful musi-
cal comedy THE Only Girls a
kind Of a duel Of wits between three
clever men and the same number of
fascinating young and beautiful wom-
en- There is a lot of satire, some as
clever as anything that ever emanated
from George Bernard Shaw. and that
is saying a great deal. There are
three distinctive types of men, and
likewise three distinctive types Of
women. From q theatrical point of
view there is nothing more entertain
ing to theatergoers than clever men
and beautiful women on the stage.
Henry Blossom is the author of the
book: and is as clever a writer of
satire as any other American of let
ters. Victor Herbert has written the
music, and no man in the United
States has ever done more toward set
ting all the people to singing than
has this same inimitable, dauntlesS
Victor Herbert. No contributor TO the
literature Of the musical stage on this
side of the Atlantic has had more tri-
umphs than has Mr.. Herbert. He has
a long list of musical plays registered
to his credit, and there is hardly

presenting at this theater the first
half of this week-and that they are
all true TO life as it is in the slums
of New York city no one will gainsay
that has ever visited that unhappy
section OF the metropolis. 1t is unde-
niably true that one-half of the world
does not know how the other half
lives. Armstrong made a study Of
those poor unfortunates of the under
world and he shows it in his charac-
ter drawing in the above play First
of all there is the unhappy Joyce
family-all typical east siders Of New
York: then the doctor who is on the
ambulance and comes to fix up the
head of the son Of the family after a
quarrel with the police. and is thus
thrown into the plot of the play; then
the tough Magee. who aspires to the
hand OF May joyce; the senator who
supports May Joyce after her escape
