Sporting News Around Selmer.

order Of the head knocber, Press
Olive, and with a little controversy
as to who had the best rifle we all
agreed. Before we adjourned Dave
Weeks, who lives one half mile north
OF town, known as still hunter,
came in and reported some ducks on
J. w. Purviance's fish lake. Said he
had fired several shots at the ducks
but could not hit them. So we at
once drew straws to see who would
be the man to go take shot at the
ducks. Guy Whitehurst was the
lucky one and one well-directed shot
from his Remington rifle landed Mr..
duck. While he was in the woods
his little squirrel dog freed some
thing in a hollow hickory tree.
Thinking it was squirrel Guy ran a
stick into the hollow, got twist on
him and pulled him out. When it hit
the ground the little dog took hold
of him and big fight was pulled off.
The dog overpowered him and he was
captured and brought to town alive
a real ground hog, and a vicious little
animal. Guy says he is sportsman
all to himself.

Place Of Calomel.

When your doctor looks to see if

find out if your liver is working prop
erly. A few years ago doctors had
to prescribe calomel-there was moth
ing else to give.
Recently in many sections of the
country Dodson's'Liver Tone has prac-
tically taken the place of calomel as a
liver remedy. Dodson's Liver Tone
is mild, pleasant tasting and harmless
which makes it a fine medicine for
use when your children become bill
