MESSlEE 10 WOaER
Who Are "Just Ready to Drop"


 When you are "just ready to drop" when you feel so weak that you can hardly drag yourself about-and be- cause you have not slept well, you get up as tired-out next morning as when you went to bed, you need help.
 Miss Lea Dumas writes from Ma lone, N. Y., saying: '1 was in a bad Ky rundown condition for several weeks but two bottles of Vinol put me on my feet again and made me strong and well Vinol has done me more good than all the other medi- cines I ever took"
 If the careworn, rundown women, the pale, sickly children and feeble old folks around here would follow Miss Dnmas' example, they, too, would soon be able to say that Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron remedy, had built them up and made them strong.
 It is a wonderful, strength creator and body-builder. and we sell it un- der a guarantee of satisfaction. You get your money back if Vinol does not help you,

 DEMOCRAT EDITORIAL
STEVE CARRIGAN, JR., SAYS JUDGE KIRBY IS STRONG
 IN HAMPSTEAD.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 Your editorial of few days ago, entitled "A Royal Decree" setting out at length the manner and ceremony that would be proper in receptions of Senator Clarke by the benighted peo- pie of Arkansas when he visits their districts, certainly is a "bell-ringer' and hands the old man out dose of the kind that Carmack used to wither them with, back in his palmy days, when he was master of that art. It is a dandy, and I am going to have Judge Kirby read this and use it in his Spring Hill speech in this county on Saturday night. Keep this work go- ing on, for it certainly helps a whole lot. I have shown this all around here and every one who has seen it says it is the best that has been put out this campaign.
 With kindest personal regards and best wishes, I am, Your friend,
 STEVE CARRIGAN, JR.

STAY ON YOUR FEET
TAKING CALOMEL M E A N $ STAYING HOME FOR THE DAY-TAKE DODSON'S LIVER TONE AND SAVE A DAYS WORK.

If an attack of constipation or bill iouness hits you, there's no need to take a dose of calomel and spend at least day getting over the effects of lit. Greeson Drug Company sells the liver tonic, Dodsons Liver Tone, that takes the place of calomel and starts a lazy liver without any bad after effects.
 Dodson's Liver Tone does all the good that calomel ever did, yet 1t IS absolutely harmless to young people and old. It is pleasant-tasting vege- table liquid that will relieve constipa- ton or sour stomach or other troubles that go along with lazy liver, with out restriction of habit or diet. You don't leave off any of the things you regularly do when you take Dodson' $ Liver Tone.
 Greeson Drug Company sell Dod- sons Liver Tone and give it a strong personal guarantee. They say, "A large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone sells for 50 cents, and we will hand any person back his 50 cents if he tries a bottle and doesn't say that it does all that calomel ever does and idoes it pleasantly. Get the genuine Dodson's Liver Tone, and if you are mot pleased with it we will give your money back with smile" (adv.)

 With what measure of any conse- Iquence has Senator Clarke's name eV- ier been creditably associated? What bills has he introduced or champion led? What has he said or dosue? How he suffers by comparison wsth Sena- tors Ashurst of Arizona, La Toilette of Wisconsin, Borah of Idaho, Lodge of Massachusetts, Reed of Missouri, Smith of Georgia, Root of New York, Williams of Mississippi, Owen of OK lahoma, and Bourne of Oregon, Dolll- yer of Iowa, and Rayner of Maryland when they were in the senate-but why extend the list? Those who are familiar with the personnel of the sen late know that Senator Clarke IS far from being a heavyweight in that body. Those conversant with the rules Irules of the senate know that senior lity of service gives any senator, though he be Senator Sorghum,
 a certain prominence of rank in that body. But what, repeat, has Sena- tor Clarke ever said or done in the United States senate?
 At the eleventh year he proposed an amendment to the Underwood-Sim- mons tariff bill, taxing deals in cotton futures on stock exchanges, which was lrejected. I am not arguing against the senator's amendment; it was probably meritorious. But why did The complacently wait II long years be- fore he introduced it? If, as the sem ator says, his amendment would save lthe farmers of Arkansas $10 on bale |of cotton; and, estimating the cotton crop of Arkansas at 800,O0O bales per lyear for the past II years, WHY, in lthe name q common sense, did he not undertake to save the farmers of Ar kansas the $8S,0OO,OOO they have lost during his II years of service in the senate? Why did he not do this, and at the same time save the farmers of l. the south the incomprehensible sum of S1 ,32O ,OOO ,OOO which they have lost? Why? Why, say? Why, of course, the senator can "explain" this, but his eleventh year amendment has all the iold familiar ear-marks, to mix meta phors, of being a sop thrown to the farmers of Arkansas, with which to catch their votes in the approaching primary.
 The New York Stock Exchange was certainly as nefarious and notorious II years ago as it is today; and sen- ator who could sit in the senate II years and see the south, or any other section of the union robbed of approxi- mately $12O,OOO,OO0 per year, accord ing to his own figures, without raising his voice in indignant protest may "shed luster" all right, but he is ab- solutely unfit to be the representative of a free people. Of course, l know that, given a page or two in the Ga zette, set in minion type, the senator could "explain" the matter to such in- tellectual Lilliputians as the editor of the Helena World. The senator is postmaster of the art of ponderous "explanation." That must be why 1t would be "the utmost folly" not to re- turn him to the senate.
 Senator Clarke belongs to past age in politics. He is a veritable Rip Van Wrinkle. His seventeenth-cen- tury, aristocratic idea of government WA
