Wc-t Virginia makes the thirty- t fourth State to ratify the Anthony ' amendment, jrrantirut full Federal suffrage to women all over the Union. Only two more States are needed to | ratify the amendment, and Delaware and Washington are about to act on i the matter at special sessions of their Lejris'atures called by the Governors of those States. I: is practic ily certain that the iiecc aty thir'.y-six States will have ratified the amendment in time to jrive women tie piivileire of voting in the I'residental election. 1{\ this aniendinent ratified by State Legislatures, sulfrajre is imposed, not granted. States that do not want it in their own territory h< ui-e of local eondilions are compelled to aecept j:, 'I he utl*i avi t o aim to tin charge is that it i> only tile men of those State \.iio do t want it. and that women ii' j 11 It i- only an umption to say that the Women o, t'.n-e States want it.

Calomel is dangerous. n erasnes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. f'alo- ! mel attacks the bono* and should never be put into your system. When you feel bilious, sluggish, | constipated and all knocked out and j believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for a few cents a large bottle of Hudson's Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take an<l is a perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start vour liver without stirring you up inside, and can not salivate. Don't take calomel! It can not be trusted any more than a leopard or a wild-cat. Take Dodosn's Liver Tone which straightens you right up and makes you feel fine. Give it to the children because it is perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe. ?4 * # .r ~ ASfl 4 Name "Bayer" is on Cenuir.t Aspirin?say Bayer Insist on "Baver Tablets of Aspirin" in a "Bayer package," containing proper directions for Headache, Colds, Pain, Neuralgia, Lumbago, and Rheumatism.
