"Tigers" Doing Much Business.
That the sale of whiskey
through "blind tigers" and their
agents is being carried on in
Fort Mill and vicinity to a larger
extent at present than at any
time in the past was the statement
made a few days ago by
i one of the town's best known
citizens. Tlfls particular citizen,
, who does not nse whiskey in any
! form, is in position to see and
know the movements of the
tiger element and the above
statement coming from him is
significant. The dealers in
THE FORT 1
e????????
whiskey, he says, are not to be
found altogether among the
colored population, but that a
very large majority eft the
negroes are either selling the
stuff or know where it is being
sold and will get it on short
notice for one desiring it. He
went further and mentioned
the case of a colored man of the
township who is having whiskey
shipped to Fort Mill in his own
name and upon taking it from
the express office immediately
turns it over to a colored woman
residing in town who retails it
out at 75 cents per pint. The j
citizen who made these statements
is, as stated, an absolute
teetotaler, but remarked that
were opportunity to present itself
he would vote for a dispensary
or evpn open barrooms rather i
than tolerate a continuance of
present conditions.

CALOMEL IS A FORM
OF DEADLY MERCORY
Instead of Such Dangerous Stuff, it
is Recommended That You Take
Dodson's Liver Tone for
Constipation.
Dodson's Liver Tone was made
to take the place of calomel.
Calomel is a form of mercury,
a mineral and a poison. Dodson's
Liver Tone is an all-vegetable
liquid?never harmful.
What calomel does unpleasantly
and often with danger for
constipation and sluggish liver,
Dodson's Liver Tone does for
you safely and pleasantly, with
no pain and no gripe. It does
not interfere in any way with
your regular business, habits or
diet. You feel good after taking
it.
The great success and wide
sale of Dodson's Liver Tone are
the results of what it does for
people. Its merit is backed up
by a guarantee of "satisfaction
or your money back," as Ardrey's
drug store, the druggists, will
tell you.
Dodson's Liver Tone was intended
from the start to take
the place of calomel. The label
on the bottle always has said so,
beginning with the first bottle
sold.
Dodson's Liver Tone "livens
the liver," overcomes constipation
agreeably and makes you
feel good, and if you are not
satisfied completely with it Ar1
drey's srug store will hand back
! the purchase price (50c) to you
with a smile.
When you pro to buy a family
remedy, don't fail to judge between
the plain, simple truth
about Dodson's and the loud
claims of its imitators. That
the public does so accounts for
the enormous increase in the
sales of Dodson's Liver Tone
month after month.
