SICKENED BY CALONEL

If you ever saw anyone made sick
by calomel you won't want any more
calomel ourself. There's no real -rea-
son why a person should take calomel
anyway, when fifty cents will buy a
large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone
a good remedy that perfectly and
safely takes the place of dangerous
calomel, which is only another form
of deadly and poisonous mercury.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting vegetable liquid which will
start the liver just as surely as Gallo
mel, and which has absolutely no bad
after-effects.
Children and grown people can
take Dodson's Liver Tone without
any restriction of habit or diet. Tan
ner Drug Co. sells it and guarantees
it to take the place of calomel, and
will refund your money at once if il
fails in your case.

friends bv announcing that she had
been married Saturday to Mr.. I. b..

would be raised to their marriage, so
proceeded to have the knot tied with
out consulting any one. The bride
preceded the groom to Dawson, and
after explanations the parental bless
ing was given, and Mr.. Grove is ex-
pected to arrive from Athens today.
The groom, who is only 20 years OF
age, is a cotton buyer for the Sidney

highly esteemed by his employers.
