Moore, editor of The Columbia Record, was arrested vul -a ' inursaay morning on two war- | rants, sworn out before a Columbia magistrate, Frank W. Blackburn, charging him with "wilfully and maliciously originating, uttering, circulating and publishing certain false statements concerning one Cole L. Blease." Mr. Moore was released under a $5,000 bond to await trial. There are two specific instances of alleged libelous statements appearing in The Record, the dates being April 16 and April 21, 1914. Each of the articles referred to was published in the editorial columns of The Record and were in regard to the proposed encampment of the j national guard at Charleston. I In each of the affidavits it is charged that the alleged editorial utterances had the effect to injure the said Cole L. Blease in his reputation, both personal and political. The State of South Carolina appears in both instances as proscutor. CALOMEL IS A FORM OF DEADLY MERCURY 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 Ardrey's srug store will hand back the purchase price (50c) to you with n smilr* When you go 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.
