Frank Deserves New Trial.
William J. Burns, the noted
detective, who for several weeks
has been investigating the murder
in Atlanta of Mary Phagan,

Leo. M. Frank, under death sen
tence for the girl's death, should
be given a new trial. Whether
the murderer of the Phagan girl
was Frank or someone else.
Burns has not said, but intimates
that evidence which he has secured
during his investigation
will enable him to bring forth
the real murderer of the girl and
establish his guilt beyond a
doubt. Burns is expected to
make a statement in the matter
during the week and it is believed
this will embody conclusions
which will induce the
supreme court to grant Frank a
new trial.

CONSTIPATION MAY
CAOSE APPENDICITIS
It Pavs to be Watchful and Careful.
Dodton's Liver Tone i? Recommended
and Guaranteed.
In a number of cases it has
seemed that appendicitis has resulted
from chronic constipation.
Hence it is well to be careful
and keep the system in as good
working order as possible, for if
you never sufffrom constipation
you are likely to lessen your
liability to other complications
and troubles.
But that does not mean that it
is wise for you to use calomel, a
poison that stays in the system
and often leaves bad effects behind
it, even after you may have
appeared to be benefited temporarily.
As a matter of fact,
calomel is exceeding dangerous
to many people, perhaps to you.
So it is just as well not to take
chances.
For constipation, biliousness,
liver complaint, sick headache,
etc., Hudson's Liver Tone is
guaranteed by the Dodson Medicine
Co. and by Ardrey's Drug
store, who will cheerfully refund
purchase price (f>0e) instantly to
to von in tVio nvnnf thnt if fnilc
to give complete satisfaction.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a vegetable
liquid, perfectly harmless,
easy to take and highly effective
without pain, ache or gripe and
leaving no had after-effects. It
assists nature and builds you up
instead of weakening you. So
many people have been immensely
benefitted by this good
remedy that it's worth your
looking into at once. Make no
mistake-ask for Dodson's Liver
Tone.
