Unfair To The Druggist.
The Old Joke About ''SOme.

Doesn't Apply to This
Drug Store.

You have probably heard dozens
of times the old story that drug
store was place to ''get someth-
ing Just as good" There is at least
one druggist in the world that you
can't say this about.
1t is certain that an inferior
article will never be substituted
for guaranteed one by Denmark
Drug store. Take for instance a
safe, reliable remedy for constipa-
tion and liver trouble like Dodson's
Liver Tone. This harmless vege.
table liquid has proved so salts
factory a liver stimulant and re-
lever of biliousness and to entire
lY take the place of calomel with
out any danger or restriction of
habits or diet, that there are
dozens of preparations springing
up with limitations of its claims.
But Dodson's Liver Tone is
guaranteed to do all that is claim
ed for it, and if you are not salts
fed with it, Denmark Drug Co.
will hand your money back with
smile. ANY person going to this
store for a bottle of Dodson's Liv-
er Tone will be sure of getting a
large bottle of this genuine remedy
in exchange for his half dollar.

ARE YOU CRAZY?

GREELEY, Colo, July e4.-Are you
crazy?
Probably you are shghtly-or-not
normal-and don't know it. Everybody
Is more or less "otl at times, according
to DR.. Lightner Wilmer. m expert on
mental diseases, and lecturer at the
State Teachers College summer school
here
Playing with a pencil while you talk,
pulling a lock of hair while at work,
lingering a dress ornament or a. button
all these are unmistakable signs OF
temporary insanity, little lapses from
the normal, saws Dr. Wilmer. whose
speciality is the study and observation
of defective children in public schools.
1T is more important that children
should first learn TO use the toothbrush
and then the pen" he said, while dis
cussing the subject here recently. "Same
minds are found in sane bodies The
line Of demorcation between the sane
and the insane is like a hair and once
or dozen times a day the hand on the

DO YOU play with a pencil? Do you

Do you pick up trihes and twist and
turn your fingers about themg Do You

"Of course You do. We all do, ana we
are all Just a trine unbalanced when we
do il. The delicate mechanism of the
brain is easily thrown out OF poise The
little. common every day acts such as
those ] have mentioned prove mental
lapses. Nou may call IL nervousness;
you may call it lust fooling; you may
call it anything YOU choose. But the
stubborn fact remains thar the pace of
today is telling on the nerve ccntcrs of
the brain. Relaxation is as necessary as
work. Don't forget that Coming back
TO the defective child rhe remedies for

connected with schools and universities.
Il IS necessary. too. that teachers know
signs of defeetiveaeas when they meet
it in their everyday work We an have
marks of the idiet as ] have said. and
the time TO eradicate as many Of these
marks as possible is when the child is
going to school. We want schools TO
become social centers. dance halls if need
be. for young folk must have pleasure.
/ It is their heritage and their due II is
a fact that cannot he denied. Therefore
it should be dealt with In sune, sensible
fashion. This is q great ana a serious
problem-the backward child. lie pre-
scnts an undevelored BRAN. but with
special tact and with proper training he
can and he will be made useful mem
