Constipation Nay
Cause Appendicitis
1t Pays to be Watc. full and Careful. Dodscn's
Liver Tone is Recommended and Guaranteed

In number of cases it has seemed
that appendicitis has resulted from
chronic constipation. Hence it is
we'll to be careful and keep the sys-
tenn in as good working order as
possible, for if you never suffer from
constipation you are likely to lessen
your liability to other complications
and troubles.
But that does not mean that it is
wise for you to use calomel, poison
that stays in the system and often
leaves bad effects behind it, even
after you may have appeared to be
benefited temporarily. AS a mat
ter of fact, calomel is exceedingly
dangerous to many people, perhaps
to you. So it is just as we'll not to
take chances.
For constipation, biliousness, liver
complaint. sick headache, ETC., bod
sons Liver Tone is guaranteed bv

cheerfully refund purchase price

Dodson's Liver Tone is vegeta-
bic liquid. perfectly harmless, easy
to take and highly effective without
pain, ache OR grippe and leaving no
bad after-effects. It assists nature
and builds you up instead Of weak
ening you. So many people have
been immensely benefited by this
good remedy that it's worth your
looking into at once. Make no mis-
take-ask for Dodson's Liver Tone,

ATTEND SCHOOL
Get Permission from Education
Board to Study Musical Har-
mony at Central.

Two young women beyond the ac-
oepted school age received permission
last night to attend the Central High
School. The girls will study musical
harmony. They gave their names as
Miss Josephine c. Dillingham;. 6l8
Highland avenue, twenty-one. and
Miss Helen c. Drake, 9S Heller park
way, twenty years old.
The applications of the girls were
granted by the committee on educa-
tional supplies of the Board of Edu-
cation. superintendent Poland ap-
proved the action. Charles M. Myers,
assistant city attorney. interpreted
the statutes for the committee. He
explained that 1t was within the
power of the committee to grant the
girls applications.
With the view of accommodating
alumni associations of public schools
the committee recommended to the
committee the wider use OF schools
that 1t amend its rules so as to permit
use of the schools for the monthly
meetings Of such associations under
certain restriction.
Charles ]. Young was appointed
teacher of physics and chemistry In
the South side HlBn SCHOOL at u sal
airy of $1,000 a year.

class for detectives at the Goes place
building, so that there will now be
six such classes.

defray the expense of illustrated lee
lures in connection with the element
airy science work of the schools.

State department for the local course
in civics for foreign classes. Super
intendent Poland explained that with
forty-six classes operating in accord
anoe with the act, the board was en-
titled to State aid and would under

as he knew, than under the general
State appropriation.
