LIVER ACTIVITY PREVENTS SICK
NESS

DOdSOn'S Liver-TOne Liyens the Liver.
The surest way to prevent sickness
is to have live liver An active liver
means that the liver is in healthful
condition, performing it's natural duty
of eliminating bile and malaria from
the system. Dodson's Liver-Tone is to
the liver what a pendulum is to a
clock. 1t regulates it, causing it to
work enough, but not too much. Just
right to perform its wonted duties, and
cause all the organs of the body to be
in healthful condition.
Dodson's Liyer-Tone is mild and
gentle, sure and prompt. Does not
cause nausea or unpleasantness or re-
striction of habit or diet.
We know what Dodson's Liver-Tone
will do is the reason we recommend it
to you

LETTER TO COTTON AVENUE FUR.
NITURE CO.,
Americas. Ga.

Dear Sirs: What is the principal
cause of unthrift in American people?
Too many bargains.
The larger half of property-owners
won't pay $1.75 gallon for good
strong paint, the paint that takes less
gallons, costs least, and wears longer.
So they pay $2.62 a gallon for paint
and get thrown-in a something that
looks like paint mixed-in with the
Plaintiffs stuff mixed-in is the bar
gain. 1t is whiting, china-clay, ground
stone, barytes, benzine, and water;
nothing but whitewash.
They pay for the mixture $125 to
$175 a gallon. All they see is the
price by the gallon; the bargain is
there.
They'll buy 20 gallons at $1.25 a
gallon for 10-gallon job; and they'll
pay from 50 to 81 a gallon for paint
ing the stuff. The job costs more by
half or double or more than double,
and wears half as long. All this they
don't see; they see only the price OF
gallon-no matter what's in it.
They don't know Devoe; they dom
know paint. They know cent; they
don't know a dollar.
Yours truly

earliest days he had determined to

made a wiser choice of ancestors and
birthplace. He was the great-grand.
son of the Benjamin Harrison, who
signed the Declaration of Indepen-

these things combined TO make inevi.

MAMA University was Harrison's
alma mater. AMI his education was
rounded out by a course at a Cincil.

lis as a youngster. he soon laid the
foundation for a flourishing law prac.
tice. When war broke out between
he North and South he abandoned
his profession and adopted that of a
soldier. He served with conspicuous
gallantry in the Atlanta campaign.
and when the boys came marching
home to Indiana after the awful war

FUTURE.

The immediate prospects of state
hood for New Mexico appear to be de
pendent somewhat on our attitude
toward the proposed income tax am
eminent to the United States consti.
tuition. At least We are so informed
by at least one special correspondent
of a prominent and influential cas-
terra daily. Ii is intimated hat the
north eastern and eastern parts of
his country look askance at the ad-
mission of two new western states
whose conservatism has never been
tried. Ii is a general rule that people
who haven't anything are quite will
ing to vote TO tax those who have;
but even at that, this territory has
never favored radical and freak leg
%islation, and, as a state. can be re-
lied upon to examine carefully any
proposed amendment to the federal
constitution.
Another thing hat Is reported to
be in the path of immediate statehood
is the control that the railroad COM
panies are supposed to have, and
may have iii the two territories.
They are said to be unfavorable be-
cause statehood would mean loss OF
their control. That is a very foolish
statement and any N who stops to
think but for a moment will perceive
that it has nothing of consistency In
1t. In the first place the statement
is not true as far as New Mexico Is
concerned because the last time the
statehood bill was before congress
two of the richest and most powerful
corporations in the territory had
their representatives in Washington
working earnestly and Loyalty for our
admission to the union. That did not
look like corporation opposition.
In the second place. II 1t be true.
as currently reported in thu eaEn,
that the corporations are afraid or
losing their control I'm the event of
statehood and are therefore against
the issue. we reply that II the cor.
porations are in control now they
will stay in control whether we get
or not. And anyway, no
body has a right to say anything
about corporation control out hare IN
