Fort Mill?4*A Better Town."
Editor Timos:
The writer of this, whatever
you may choose to call it. has
been visiting in Fort Mill for
some time, and, he, she or it.
has been favorably impressed
with the progress of the town.
Now. changing from the third
to the first person, I do not wonder
why the slogan. "Fort Mill,
A Better Town," has been
adopted. With paved streets,
electric lights and other improvements
coming, among which is
the waterworks plant, the slogan
is bv no means a misused one.
The stores are attractive and
carry a good line in every department.
Despite the drought
of the early summer, the crops
are good. The town has a live
government. Her citizenry is
second to none. In short, Fort
Mill is the kind of town that
makes one feel like calling it
"my town" and this spirit has
manifested itself strong in the
writer.
Here's luck to the "better
town." May she continue to
grow and prosper as she has done
and is doing! Watch Fort Mill
forge to the front. Unexcelled
in the business, social and all
other fields, "the better town"
will be heard from.
Guess Who?
War on Vast Scale.
The declaration of war seni to
Servia Tuesday by the AustroHungarian
government seems to
foreshadow a general con diet
that will involve all tin4 countries
on the continent of Kurope in
the flames of war.
What amount of misery and
suffering such a war will cause
God in His Omniseeu.ce alone can
estimate, but it is possible that
it may exceed the horrors of am
preceding conflict in ancient or
modern history. The great
nations of Russia, Germany,
France, England and others
that may he involved, with their
modern armaments and hitherto
undreamed of death-dealing machines
and munitions of destiuc\
tion indicate a possible conflict
that will devastate cities and exterminate
peoples wholesale.
it seems incredible that such a
v ar should he possible in this
enlightened Christian age, hut
we nevertheless set m to he face
to face with such a catastrophe.

Will Not Imprison Deserters.
Abolition of imprisonment for
desertion from the Navy in !
times of peace was ordered Sun- 1
day by Secretary Daniels. Bluejackets
who now overstay their 5
leave or commit similar breaches ?
of discipline will be dismissed <
summarily instead of being sent
to prison, while men who be
come dissatisfied and want to
quit may have an honorable discharge
by merely refunding cer- 1
tain enlistment allowances. <
This radical reform has been 1
under consideration by the ]
Secretary since.he went into 1
into office. He announced Sun- 5
day that the navy now had
practically a full quota, 51,348
enlisted men ?compared with a ^
shortage of more than 4,000 18 1
months ago and that the time 1
to take the step had come. <

i rendered.
On July 30, at 2 o'clock Com- i
missioner Watson will deliver an
address before the Bethel Improvement
Association at Bethel
church, the invitation having

president of the association. It

Died From Knife Wound.
Henry Long, a 20-year old t
hoy, employed by the Fort Mill f
Manufacturing company, died in
a Rock Hill hospital Friday
morning as the result of a knife
wound indicted about three
weeks ago by Marshall Sanders,
another employe of the mill. It
seems that in play Sanders threw
ins knife at Long and inflicted a
wound in his leg which was not
considered serious and the wound
was treated by local physicians.
Complications arose and the boy
was sent to the hospital where
it was found necessary to amputate
the member in an effort to j
save lite but this failed of its I
purpose. John Long, the boy's
father, lives in Kock Hill. Sanders
pave himself up to Magis- !
tr..te It. P. Harris for such
course as is required.

NOT WISE TO ' i
TAKE CALOMEL
Dpdson's Liver Tone is just as
sure in results and always safe,
pleasant in taste and has no bad
after-effects. As a remedy for
a torpid liver calomel has more
than met its match in Dodson's
Liver Tone. This medicine does
not roughly force the liver on-to
penorm its work. It acts gently
but surely.
Calomel depends for its power
upon exciting the liver to do
more work, and often the liver
is too weak to stand such treatment,
and after taking calomel
you are as a result sometimes
worse off than before.
Dodson's Liver Tone cannot
cause any of the dangerous
effects that often follow the use
of calomel. It is entirely vegetable
and pleasant to the taste,
and is suitable for children and
grown people.
Get a large bottle for fifty
cents at Ardrey's Drug store
under the guarantee that if it
doesn't satisfy you that it perfectly
takes the place of calomel
you will be given your money
back with a smile right at the
store where you bought Dodson's
medicine.
