Drives Off a Terror.
The chief executioner of death in

pheumonia, Its advance agents are
^ colds and grip. In any attack by
one of these maladies uo time should
be lost in taking theJt>e9t medicine
obtainable to drive it off, Countless
thonsar.ds have found this to be Dr.
Kings New Discovery. "My husband
believes it has kept him from
having pheumonia three or four
time*," writes Mrs. George W.
Placi. EUw?onville, Vt , "and for
coughs, colds and croup we have
nevt r found its equal." Guaranteed
for all bronchial aflections.

Has That Been Your Experience Taking
Calomel f r Constipation? Try
Dodson's Liver Tone Next Time
Many psople take calomel to cure
constipation, and it does cure it for
one day, bus two or threedavs later
they are sicker than aver. That is 1
one of the after-effects of calomel, 1
This is the reason why Norton i
Drug store will not guarranteo cal
omel to be harmless. But we do
guarrantee Dodson's Liver-Tone 1
to bo a porfoct substitute for calomf>
el, Dodson.s Liver-Tone will cure !
constipation and bilious attacks and
keep them cured, by stimulating ard
toning-up the liver to do its best
work. It is a vegetable liquid with
a pleasant taste and is harmless to
children as well as grown people.
It livens up the liver by natural ,
methods, does not act so strongly ,
as to weaken the body, but is safe
and sure ju9t the same. You cio ,
buy a bottle to day from Norton i
Drug Company, with the assurance ,
of your money back if it fails in
your case. j

Considerable interest was hianifested
in the exhibit of the Progressive
Homemakers Club by both the
men and women. The room was
tastefully decorated with the club
colors, lavander and gold. One
table contained edibles, cooked by
the club members. This certainly
was a most appetizing display and
demonstrated a part of the club studies.
One feature of this table was,
e. chicken which had been baked in
a paper bag. This was one of the
subjects under discussion at a recent
meeting.
Another table containing plain
sewing, hand and machine work,
button-holds and darning. This was
the work competing for prizes. Some
of this work was most creditable
and the judges had some difficulty
in selecting the best. The third
