USE OF CALOMEL
PRACTICALLY STOPPED
Dangerous Drug Giving Way for Safer,
More Reliable Remedy

Hundreds of people in this vicinity
alone have stopped the use of danger
Gus calomel where the liver is acting
slowly, and take Dodson's Liver Tone
instead.
Dodson's Liver Tone IS always safe
and has none of the bad after-effects
which so often follow the use of calo-
mel. 1t is a pleasant tasting vegetable
liquid that starts the liver gently and
surely and. relieves constipation and
biliousnesssand causes no restriction OF
habit or diet.
Many preparations have sprung up
that initiate the claims made for Dod-
sons Liver Tone, but remember Dod-
sons Liver Tone is the tried and tested
remedy that has proven such a good
medicine and is so satisfactory to every
user-is the reason these limitations are
on the market.
Dodson's Liver Tone annot hurt
anyone and-if it fails to do all that is
claimed for it O1fton's Pharmacy who
sells it, will give your money back with
q smile.

In Memoriam.

Wade H. Blanton, Lay Evangelist o.
Presbytery of Bell, died at home ii
Nettleton, March, IL, 1913.
Wade Dear Boy, we'll miss you much.
Your place will vacant be,
Home will be sad without you
Your face no more we'll see.
But God who took YOU from US
Does what is best for all.
He's called you to come higher
And you've obeyed the call.
Your life was clean and beautiful
To noble service given,
Redeemed and purified by grace,
And thus made sweet for Heaven.
Your earthly course was short indeed,
But you did run it well.
Fought the fight and kept the faith,
The story sweet did tell.
The message you to others bore
That soothed your dying hours,
Will fruitage bear for many years
Will never lose its power.
From weary toll and singing pain
You now may rest in peace,
Assured that till the end of time
Your works shall never cease.
Your memory shall fragrant be,
Well cherish it in love.
Your works and virtues initiate
Till we are called above.
And then we'll see you face to face
No more to say Goodbye,
Recount the joys of service sweet
And be at Home on High.

Tick Eradication.

Washington. March 10th. In
creased activity in the work of
eradicating the cattle tick may
be expected to follow the revis-
ion of the quarantine regulations
Just announced by the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture. This is the opinion eX-
pressed to-day by President Fin
ley, of the Southern Railway
Company, who said:
"The provision that cattle may
be shipped from the quarantined
area under the certificate of an
inspector of the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry that they have been
dipped twice with an interval OF
from five to ten days, in an ar
senical solutin or otherwise treat
ed in a manner satisfactory to
the Secretary of Agriculture and
under the supervision Of an IN
spector and that they are Tree
from infection, will greatly en-
courage the farmers to get the
ticks out of their herds. 1t will
enable the individual farmer to
benefit from his work before the
locality in which he lives is en-
tirely released from quarintlne.
i The revised regulations indl-
cate a desire of the Department
of Agriculture to remove restrlc-
tons on the movement of cattle
from the quarantined area so far
as it may safely be done.
simultaneously with the is
suance of the more liberal regu-
lations, the Department has re-
| vised the quarantine line, releaS-
ing large areas in the regions
where systematic work against
the tick has been carried on, and
making the total area released
since 1905 more than 1877, 600
square miles. Work against the
tick is especially active in Missis-
sippi where at the close of the
year 1912 there were 2.181 dip
ping watts in operation. In one
county in this state there were
1876 watts. Similar activity
throughout the entire quarantin-
ed area would make the complete
destruction of the tick only the
matter of a very few years.,

Since the old-fashioned theory of cur
ing eczema through the blood has been
given up by scientists, many different
salves have been tried for skin diseases.
But it has been found that these salves
only clog the pores and cannot penetrate
to the inner skin below the .epidermis
where the eczema germs are lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous sue
cess of the well known liquid eczema

cerine, ETC., as compounded in Odd

T. N. Fannin, Kentucky Capitalist Buys interest in Ceilings Vehicle and
 Harness Go.

Since he opened his vehicle and har ness store six years ago, the business of F. T Ceilings has so expanded and grown that he has found it advisable to share his burden With a partner. Ac- cordingly negotiations have been con- cluded with T. N. Fannin of Ashland, Ky, who will take an interest in the business.
 The concern, while, much larger vehicle and harness store than it was is something more. Many new lines have been added, agricultural implements, hardware and engines. The trade orig finally confined to the valley now ex- tends to all parts of the state until the the most important in the Southwest.
 The new partner will be a valuable acquisition to Phoenix business circles He is a gentleman of considera ble wealth. He has extensive lumber in terests in Kentucky and is president and half-owner of the Big Sandy and Kentucky railroad. He is also the owner of the largest independent sheet iron mill in the country employing 600 men.

HERE'S PITCHER WHO
 OWNS 4 WOODEN LEG
Old Timer Digs Up Wonder of the Mound Who Has But One Pin;
 That Doesn't Hurt He Says

Barney Petty, old-time pitcher of the American League insists that two legs are not necessary for a pitcher. In proof of this he sends the follow ing record of A. c. Murphy. pitcher for the coal mine teams of Farming ton, Mo, his home. Murphy is em- ployed as a bookkeeper in the mines. Largely because he is such a fine pitcher, the miners insist he be given light employment, so he may help them win games. His left leg is made of cork, and he pitches with his left arm.
 But Barney thinks he is good enough for the big leagues He is 22 years old and weighs 16S pounds writes Barney. His record in the Pennington and Bonne Terre South east Missouri League is as follows:
 1910-WOn 20 games, lost 4
 1911-Won 12 games, lost , Helena end Pennington League.
 1912-Won g games, lost 8; St. Ed ward Nebraska, and Crystal City League.
 1913-Won 22 games, lost 3; Farm irgton, Mo.
 Average strike-O outs per game, IL
 This fellow" writes Barney, has never been hit for more than seven hits per game. He is a gIutton for work, and has worked this year sev- elal times every other day I note that you ask me whether I am com ing back as an infielder. I will say that l am playing the infield some down here and some day I am liable to be back as an infielder"

tional defeat, southern democratic
senators were in line for the choice
committee places.
Had the policy of seniority and pre-
cedent been followed it is probable
that the incoming senate would have
either Senator Martin or some other
conservative as caucus chairman. But
seniority and precedent were set aside
to a large degree. At the time the
committees were reformed it was an
nounced that in the future the chair
man would not be all powerful as he
had been in the past. Instead, the
power is to be in the hands Of the
committee members themselves and
/ the membership of these committees
consists mostly of progressive sena
tors. So the retirement of Mr.. Martin
is only part Of the general change. II
is well that this change is being
brought to pass, for it marks the re
demption of one, at least, of the dem
ocratic party's pledges-that by which
it undertook to rehabilitate itself il

to talk to the old fellow about them
about his poverty and his children,
and he used the old argument which
has been employed so long and so sue
cessfully with the rural members OF
all our legislatures, and has been the
source of so much evil in our city
governments, that is the argument
that the bill concerned only Chicago,
and that the folks down home would
neither know nor care how he voted
on it, and then-how much two thou
sand dollars would mean to him. AS
the lobbyist talked, there were vari-
GUS eyes that looked at him, waiting
for a sign; they needed only a few
votes then, and the roll call was be-
ing delayed by one pretense and an
other, and the clock was turned back,
The old fellow listened and stroked
his chin, and then presently, when the
lobbyist had done, he turned his old
blue eyes on him and said:
"T reckon you're right; I'm poor
and I've got big family, And you're
right too, when you say my people
