GOOD FOR EVERYBODY

Almost everybody takes some laxative
medicine to cleanse the system and keep tho
blood pure. Those who take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR liquid or powder
get all the benefits of mild and pleasant
laxative and tonic that purfies the blood
and strengthens the whole system. And
more than this: SIMMONS LIVER REGU-
LATOR regulates the Liver, keeps il active
and healthy, and when the Liver IS in
good condition you find yourself free from
Malaria, Diliousness, Indigestion, Sick
Headache and Constipation, and rid of
that worn out ana debilitated feeling.
These are all caused by sluggish Liver.
Good digestion and freedom from stomach
troubles will only be had when the liver
is properly at work. If troubled with any
of these complaints, Try SIMMONS LIVER

would suffice but what | must 60
and take hunt, and that by my
self. So / made ready, cooked a
VI lot of provision, shouldered my
X shotgun and with my dog left
home for the hunt. Of course my
father gave me few words of adj
& vice before l started, which found
to be of great stimulus to me. My
dog was large cur and one of the
hest for raccoons / ever saw. |
knew if there we're any cOons
Astounding they were just as good
as my meat" Consequently l
left home full of hope and deter
mination to make the hunt sue
cess if possible, not predicting any
danger whatever.
It was some distance to the hunt
\ ing grounds had mapped out, and
I reached them after a travel of
two days, some two or three hours
before the sun sank behind the
western horizon. This was in the
northeastern part of Powell on the
south bank of Red river. / now
commenced to look for arock house
to camp in, but could not find one
suitable on this side of the .river.
However, I looked across to the
other side and saw Il large one, and
which had the appearance of a good
one. 1t was very close to the river
bank and extended back in the hill,
forming a Kind of semi-circle, each
end sloping to the bank of the
river.
Certainly did not like the idea
Of crossing the river, but it was
fordable and l concluded to cross,
and soon had a good fire built. BY
this time it was late in the day,
and | began to make preparations
to take a little hunt. 1t was a
very warm, still night, which made
it, splendid time for coon hunting.
My dog seemed to have n full
knowledge of this, and appeared to
be very anxious to take a hunt.
So, to inspire my dog with greater
zeal, / gave my horn few shrill
toots and started out for a few
hours hunt, only, as l was ex-
tremely tired.
Well, l had not been out long till
old Rover freed. From the way he
barked / knew he had a coon up
tree, and / made rapid pace to
where he was. Sure enough, it was
a coon up in large, STOPPING oak
tree. Making up big pine torch
light, its eyes shone like dia-
mond. Leveling my gun on it ]
fired and brought it to the ground.
This was big luck for so short
time, and being tired l concluded
to go back to camp, rest up, get
better acquainted with the woods,
Z and take big hunt the next night.
y I was soon back to camp and found
an excellent fire burning.
