Every druggist in town?your druggist and everybody's druggist has no ticed a great falling-off in th6 sale oi calomel. They all give the same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is taking its place. "Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better reunits." said a nrominent local drusr gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by every druggist who sells it A large bottle costs 50 eents, and if it fails to give easy relief in every ease of liver sluggishness and constipation, you have only to ask for your money back. ' Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasanttasting, purely vegetable remedy, harmless to both children and adults. Take a spoonful at night and wake up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick headache, acid stomach or constipat ed bowels. It doesn't gripe or cause inconvenience all the next day like violent calomel. Take- a dose of calomel today and tomorrow you will feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't lose a day's work! Take Dodson's Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full of vigor and ambition.?Adv. i- * /' IG AUCTI' i out on November : rhpiin and wp nnlv MHB%# Tf w vr sveral gold watcher ntertain you and a t cotton will cert never bought any 1 \ me and only a litth DON' 1 Anderson TON, President ) RING FOR THOSE TAKING PART IN IING HELD TUESDAY iwvvvvvvvvvvvvvv V V V MT.
