Calomel Is Quicksilver and Acts Like Dynamite on Your Liver. Calomel loses you a day! You know what calomel is. It's mercury; quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. When you feel bilious, sluggish, constipated and all knocked out and believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for 50 cents a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone,which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirring you up inside, and cannot salivate. Don't take calomel! It makes you sick the next day; it loses you a day's work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens you right up and you feel great. Give it to the children, because it is perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe. Sailers Snapshots. Salters Depot, March 16:?Everybody around here is astir now preparing for another crop. The use of fertilizers will be very much curtailed fhia vonr and thp cotton acre-1 age will also be cut.

Around the stove of the cross roads * grocery is the real court of last resort, for it finally over-rules all others. Chamberlain's Cough Rem- ? edy has been brought before this ; court in almost every cross roads grocery in this country, and has al ways received a favorable verdict. It is in the country where a man ex- j pects to receive full value for his ' money that this remedy is most appreciated. Obtainable everywhere. Greece's dogs of war appear to be ( all setters. * Mow To Give Quinine To Children.
