' When an article is sold a druggist who is willing to give it his personal I guarantee,it's a mighty strong proof of real merit. That's exactly the case with Dodson's Liver Tone. It is a pleasanttasting, vegetable remedy for a slow : and sluggish liver. Since Dodson's 1 Liver Tone came on the market the sale of calomel has gone 'way down. The reason is simply this: Dodson's Liver Tone is safe and harmless and guaranteed to be satisfactory?Calomel is often uncertain, sometimes dangerous, and no druggist wants to guarantee that it won't knock you out of a day's work and maybe send you to bed. Dr W V Brockington sells Dodson's Liver Tone and guarantees it. *>r you and for your children it's a , good thing to keep a hottle always in the house. Dr W V Brockington will give you your money back if you think Dodson's Liver Tone is not worth the price.

After Being Plred Make Excellent Thoroughfare*. Blazing a trail of good roads through the south Is not a figure of speech, but an actuality, for many miles of good roads are being made by setting fire to poor ones, the result being what Is known as a baked day road. There are no poorer roads in all the United States than the "gumbo" roads of the south, gumbo being the name given a certain kind of mud or clay that is particularly sticky, clings tenaciously, seems to have no bottom and will not support any weight. Gumbo, hnwpvcr. contains a large percentage | of organic matter which will burn when dry. and as a result a road of this material properly prepared and set on fire emerges from the fiery ordeal as a perfectly good road and one. moreover, that stays so for a considerable period of time. The process of converting a gumbo road Into baked clay begins by plowing up the roudway and making ditches on the sides. Cordwood Is laid In a sort of flooring across the furrows which run crosswise of the road. Great lumps of sticky gumbo are spread over this floor, along with more wood loosely strewn about Then a second floor o 1 wood is laid and the whole covered with gumbo, tamped and rounded off Fire Is now set to the road, and the flames rushing through the furrows. | which serve as flues, Igplte the wood. After the heat has driven the watei | out of the gumbo this, too. ignites, and the actual cooking process Is in full 1 swing. "It is more than merely drying out the gumbo." says C. EI. Claudy in Ma tor. "It is a peculiarity of this gumbo that at low temperature it clinkers, and I these clinkers when broken up art quite different from the original lumps of gumbo. The clinker is not only 1 fairly hard, but if properly burned will not make mud when mixed with water. In this is the triumph of the burned clay road. When the fire ha? burned Itself out the roadmaker hae not only a thorough mixture of dry clay and wood ashes, but a good deptt of gumbo clinker, which he promptly 1 proceeds to break into small pieces tc spread evenly and finally to roll and compact into a real road" To all Intents and purposes the road so made is a fine dry stretch of crum UIVU UilWA.

There are many stories extant, amnsincr as well a., Instructive, of the dodges resorted to by Raitish soldiers I who wish to get "invalided" home 1 from an undesirable station. There is the case of the professed deaf and dumb man. The patient, who appeared suddenly and unaeountably to have gone deaf and dumb, when asked a question, would stare straight to his front in stony silence. I The dumb man was removed to the | hospital for treatment, and upon his 1 ' diet sheet each morning was written a tempting array of hospital comforts , such as T. Atkins loves?rice pudding, bacon, eggs, milk punch and even beer. This list of luxuries could be studied by all who cared to read. But day after day the medical orderly f \ i aM 1 <a?r*u?**o "he's a liar, sib!" brought nothing to the poor patient but plain milk. Each morning, in sympathetic voice, the officer Inquired of the orderly in front of the patient whether each and every article of diet | had been provided. The orderly glibly answered, "Yes, sir!" "Did he get his beer with his dinner, ail be wanted of it, and bis milk punch before he went to bed?" And again would come from the orderly a cheerful, "Yes, sir." At first the poor deaf and dumb man's face would redden, but never a word could he hear or speak. There is, however, a limit to all endurance, and it was for that limit that the officer waited. Fully convinced that the orderly was a inier ana a nearuese scoundrel and bad been bagging the comforts for himself, the patient could stand It no longer. "He's a liar, sir!" gasped be at last "I've had naught but milk for a week!" Result ? Immediate discharge from hospital and a court mart tat Make the Plunge.
