DODSON’S GUARANTEE
EXPLAINED bY DODSON
Read What Dodson Says About His.
Liver Tone to You Who Suffer
From Constipation.
“Dodson's Liver Tone takes
place of calomel. Instead of being
dangerous, it is harmless and works
| easily and naturally, without had af
ter-effects. I have authorized your
druggist to refund purchase price (50c)
to you Instantly without question if
you are in any way dissatisfied with
it. If Dodson's Liver Tone can't help
you. I don't want your money."
That's how Dodson feels about this
pleasant-tastfng vegetable-liquid liver
regulator and reliever of constipation
j and biliousness.
The lives of so many people have
been brightened and bettered by this
great remedy that leading druggists
now recommend it and seven of Amer
ica's most prominent physicians O. K. d
it, after thorough analysis of its In
gredients and effects.
It Is generally known that calomel,
being a poison, is a peril to many. It
stays in the system and, while It may
seem to give you a temporary relief,
often “knocks you nut" for several
j 'lays.
With Dodson's Liver Tone you nre
set right without ache or gripe and
with no had results to interfere In the
slightest way with your regular occu
pation and habits. So great a number
| of former sufferers from constipation
and inactive liver have been vastly
| tienefited by Dodson's Liver Tone that
it would seem wise for you to give it
a trial now. Children like it and it
does wonders for them.
LOOK AT YOORSELF
Is Suffering Writing Lines
In your Face?
* show n
her face. Secret suffering and sickness
is writing those lines every day plainer
and plainer.
They don’t know what to do. Their
backs ache, their bodies ache; poor ap
petite, bad digestion, sallow skins,

al trouble peculiar to women. Doctors
j ion’t seem to help them. It’s pitiful.
But there is a way out.
A distinguished Southern physician
j gave a life time of constant study to

rightly called it Stella Vitae, the star

All dealers sell it and so certain are

BURKS IS AFTER
OTHER SLEUTHS
Detective Says His First Move
Will Be to Quis All of Them
In Murder Case.
Atlanta, Ga. PltMtlVt William .1
Hums is going to quiz every detec
tive of police headquarter* who had
anything to do with the Investigation
of Mary Thnngan's murder anil the
conviction of Leo M. Trank,
He Is likewise going to Interview
Solicitor Hugh M. Dorsey and prtvite
Investigators attached to the solicitor's
staff. lie Is planning to confer with
over)- mi, I In Atlanta who was con
nected In any manner with the Pha
gan Investlgutlon.
He held a lengthy talk with the
prisoner In the Tower lust night. Dur
ing Monday afternoon he was closeted
with Leonard Haas, counsel for the
defense, In the Haas oflces. where he
went thoroughly over the brief of evi
dence submitted by Frank's counsel at
llie application for a new trial before
the supreme court.
Will Interview Lanford.
Hums will likely seek a conference
with Chief Newport A. Lanford some
time today—or. perhaps, tomorrow.
Among those he intends to interview
will he John Itluck, headquarters' prin
cipal figure In the Investigation and
Detectives Pot Campbell and John
Starnes.
Campbell and Starnes were named
as prosecutors in the tdll of Indictment
returned by the grand Jury against
Frank.
Among others whom Hums expects
to talk with at police headquarters are
Detectives J. A. Chew ning and W. IL
Norris, the two sleuths accused by Nt
na Form by of having coerced her Into
swearing in an affidavit to an untrue
story against the convicted superin
tendent.
Chief Reavers will also llkelv be
consulted by the detective. Solicitor
Dorsey, when seen by reporters Mon
day afternoon, was asked if he would
co-operate with Rums. He would not
clmmit himself, suving merely:
"I would rather not tulk of the sub
ject."
Hums’ plan to quiz the police head
quarters' detectives creates interesting
speculation. Police officials have
stated In the past, however, that Ilia
great detective, in event lie convinced
them that he was seeking nothing but
the truth, would receive their full co
operation.
New State Evidence.
It has been said by a member of the
detective bureau thut Chief Lanfmd
has recently unearthed an amount of
evidence that will lie valuable to the
prosecution In event of possible future
complications. Some of this evidence,
It Is said. Is In refutation of an amount
of newly discovered evidence posses
sedd by Frank’s defense.
It is stated that evidence benrlng
on the Story of Mrs J. B. Simmons, of
Birmingham, whose sensational affi
davit was disclosed some few davs
ago. Is in the hands of the beadqua?-
ters' detectives. Chief Lanford will
neither deny nor affirm the statement
that he has additional evidence of nidi
nature.
Albert McKnight was sllghtlv im
proved at the Falrhaven hospital Mon
day. He is barely able to talk, how
ever, and is still In a dangerous con
dition. C. W. Burke, the private In
vestigator for the defense, sought to
quiz the negro Monday, but to no
avail. He stated to reporters tlrnt Mc-
Knight was not able to talk to even
him.
Suspicion that McKnight was as
saulted Instead of Injured while leap
ing from a Southern train at Rose
land has arisen In the minds of mem
bers of the defense One member
frankly stated Monday afternoon that
he believed McKnight had been at
tacked for some unknown reason.
Other members of the defensv, how
ever. would not comment upon th ; s
statement. They anxiouslv await
though, the negro's recovery sufficient
to explain his mytserious accident.

MEN IN AUTO CRASH

rious Injury if not death.
Mr. W. H. Shelton and Mr. M. T
Abney, two of the party, were taken
to the Margaret Wright Hospital,
