WHY NOT GET
 \ ARANTEE
ENery Article oi Ner,t |, .-o,t These Days Under a Guaran- tee-No Guarantee Often
 Means Poor Quality.

There iS very little excuse for any person to claim that he has been "stung" on purchase. Fifty years ago the buyer had to look out, but today it is un- usual to find a merchant who will not return the money for any article that has proven un- satisfactory.
 An excellent example of this kind of fair dealing is shown by the clean cut guarantee that Walkers Pharmacy give on D0dSOn'S Liver Tone.
 These people tell Us that any person who pays 50e for bot tie of DodSon'S River Tone and does not find it a gentle and most pleasant liver tonic. harm less, but a sure reliever of con stipation and a perfect substi- ute for calomel, can get his money back just as quick as tAey can get it out of the money drawer.
 Hsdson's Liver Tone has prac- -ically taken the place of calo- mel. Ii is absolutely harmless, sure in it's action and causes no restriction of habit or diet. No wonder the drug people are glad to guarantee it, while other remedies that initiate the claim of Dodson's Liver Tone are not guaranteed at all. (Adv. ]
