' 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. "Keep your liver working and
your liver will not keep you from
working," is good advice to go by.

MAKING GOOD ROADS BY
BURNING UP POOR ONES
tBumbo* b*o?d? 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

W D Magli, a well known merchant

as to be able to supply them to his

Cough In young pigs Is very often
caused by dust In the bedding. Dry,
short, chaffy oat straw Is most likely to
cause trouble in this way. The cough
often ends In fatal pneumonia. The
cough may also be due to exposure or
to damp sleeping places. Such causes
should be removed. Thumps In young
pigs Is Induced by overfeeding and lack
of exercise. If both the mother and
pigs are made to take abundant exercise
dally trouble such as this will be
unknown.

WALKED INTO THE TRAP, i
It Was a Tantalizing 8oheme, and It
Unmasked the Pretender.
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
