REMEMBER YOUR LAST DOSE OF
CALOMEL?

You Probably Recall the After Effects
of the Calomel More Than You Do
the Sickness You Took 1t For.
You don't have to go through this
again.
Next time your liver gets sluggish
and Inactive, we suggest that you go to
S. L. Raines drug store for bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone, vegetable liquid
that will start your liver as surely as
calomel ever did and with none of the
after-effects of calomel. 1t is absolute
ly harmless both to children and adults
and demands no restriction of habits or
diet.
S. L. Raines guarantees Dodson S
Liver Tone to take the place of calo-
mel, and will refund your money if it
fails in your case.

AVOCADO MARKET CLUTTED

Late communications from New
York indicate that simultaneous ship
ments of avocadoes from Florida
Havana, Trinidad and Porto Rico
nave glutted the market for the time
being and ruined it. Local commits
sion men have been advised to hold
Tor time till market conditions again
become normal 1t is rot thought
that the slump will continue Tor a
great length of time.
On the local market avocadoes have
been bringing from IS cents to $1.25
per dozen Shipments to Jackson
vile and Chicago have been even bet
ter. One grower states that in a
shipment last week he received s.
net for crate of three dozen in Chi
cago. This is considered unusual, al
though not impossible, for while the
avocado market is limited, it is a mar
ket which can pay almost any price
in order to get them. This years
crop is reported as rather slim, al
though on the whole the size and
quality OF the fruit are good Miami

RECIPES FOR SIMPLE CANDIES

Molasses Candy-In one quart OF
molasses put two cupfuls of brown
sugar Boil quickly at first, and more
slowly as the mixture thickens Test
he candy by dropping { little into a
cup of cold waite; if it shows that it
is beginning - grow firm, add tea
spocnfI. Of vanilla extract, small
pinch OF salt and bit OF soda about
the size of a pea Try the candy FIRE
quently, and when the tested spoon
full remains firm in the cup of cold
water pour it into shallow, bull-but-
tered pans
This candy can be made hard and
brittle by substituting half cupful
Of vinegar instead Of the soda. Stir
constantly when the candy is nearly
done
Fudge-AliX three-quarters of a
cupful of unsweetened chocolate with
one cupfdl OF milk and two cupfuls Of
sugar The chocolate must be grated
fine, or pounded into very small piec-
es, so that it will dissolve Boil the
mixture stirring constantly AS soon
as it boils hard, add a small piece OF
butter In twenty minutes the mix
ture will begin to thicken Watch it
carefully, and when the spoon makes
a trace on the bottom Of the kettle
take it of the fire; then quickly put
in one teaspoontul of vanilla, and
beat until the mixture is thick. Pour
into buttered pans in layers about
three-quarters of an inch thick, and
cut into squares.
The success of fudge lies in its be-
ing removed from the fire at the right
moment. The same recipe can be
prepared with nuts, which are chop
ped and put in at the same time as
the vanilla. English walnuts, peanuts
and pecans are the best to use.
Taffy-Put a tablespoonful Of but
ter in a granite saucepan, and pour
over it one pound of sugar and two
tablespoonfuls Of vinegar Let the
mixture stand all night If it looks
very dry in the morning, add q little
more vinegar Boil the mixture with
ont stirring until it hardens when
dropped into cold water. Then put
in a teaspoonful CT vanilla little by
little, stirring it we'll into the candy
and then pour into but,ered tins to
get cool.

and soak in half a cupful Of cold wa
ter for two hours. Put one pound Of
granualted sugar and half oupful Of
cold water into a pan and lei it dis
solve over the fire. When the syrup
reaches the boiling point, add the
soaked gelatin and boil steadily for
twenty minutes Put in the grated
rind and the juice OF an orange, and
also add the juice Of one lemon. Dip
a tin pan into cold water, turn the
