Columbia, April 8.?The State
Highway Commission through the
State Treasurer will distribute
$240,525.40 among the forty-six
counties of the State from automobile
license fees paid for 1010 up to
April 1st. In 1018 the automobile
license fees to April 1st amounted
to $105,512.40. The collections in
1019 were approximately $45,000.00
in excess of those in 1918 up to the
same date.
Chesterfield county will receive
$4,293.20 as its share of the automobile
license fees. Advocates of
good roads are strongly of the opinion
that every county in the State
should devote the whole of its receipts
from automobile license fees
to making permanent road improvements
or on road maintenance this
year, as provided by law.
Section 11 of the Act approved
'February 20th, 1917, creating the
State Highway Commission and imposing
a license tax on motor vehicles,
provides that the money from
, the license tax shall be used by the
M counties "only for the construction
Mfv and maintenance of roads and
bridges." From reports received
last year, it appears that some of the |
counties turned the money from automobile
license fees into the general
county fund and did not use it as required
by law.
DAVE SEEGARS CAUGHT
Dave Seegars, colored, of near Society
Hill, who was wanted by the
Sheriff, has been caught in Winston
Salem, N. C. by Deputy Grant and
now rests in the county j.nil here.
Dave was charged by his wife
with a very serious offense about a
WAnfW oirn I I K.wl '
before complaint had been made to
the sheriff. He was traced to Winston
Salem, N. C.t and arrested last
Saturady. He was lodged in jail here
Wednesday.

TO OUR CORRESPONDENTS
Once more it becomes necessary to
all our writers' attention to the fact
hat ail letters for publication must
ear the name of the writer. We do
lot wish to publish the name of the
writer hut we must know it. We have
his week a ttood letter from Sandy
Mains, which, so far as we can tell,
obtains nothing that will offend anyne.
But it cannot be published beause
it does not bear the name of
he writer.
In this connection we wish to say
a case of trouble over any item the
inter must bear full responsibility.
)ur friends must keep always in
nind the fact that if they play jokes
>r misrepresent facts or in any other
vay offend their neighbors through
rite Advertiser they will be expected
o make amends the best they can.
Pheir identity cannot be kept secret
rom the parties interested. P.H.H.

CAI.OMEL DYNAMITES
I ' A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into tour bile making you
tick and you lose a day's work.
Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
j siutrtrish liver. When calomel comer,
niio coniaei wiin sour one 11 crusnes
into it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, constipated
and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone for a few cents
which is a harmless vegetable substitute
for dangerous calomel. Take
a spoonful and if it doesn't start
your liver and straighten you up better
than nasty calomel and without
making you sick, you just go hack
and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll he
sick and nauseated tomorrow; hesides,
it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
It's harmless, pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it. Adv. 4.
