DON'T TAKE CALOMEL
HERE'S A BETTER REMEDY

Taking calomel is mighty risky
and often times dangerous.
You ought to get along without
taking calomel yourself or giving II
to your family. when you can get
remedy that takes It's place. bod
sons Liver Tone is a agreeable veg
etable liquid that starts the liver to
action Just as surely as calomel does.
But. unlike calomel. Dodson's Liver
Tone does not stimulate the liver too
much. 1t gives relief gently. Calomel
acts so strongly that II may leave
you worse than you were at firsie
and calomel also sometimes causes
salvation. Dodson's Liver Tone
works well and never harms.
A large bottle Of Dodson's Liver
Tone is sold for fifty cents by Gray

given such perfect satisfaction that
your money will be given back to
you with a smile II you buy a bottle
and are not perfectly satisfied with

Sometimes woman is patient because
she Is afraid.
There is never any truce between the
dog lovers and the dog haters.
No man gets greatly excited about .
wedding unless it is his own.
AT some time in his career, nearly every

How can a pretty little woman call a
big, fat. ugly bald-headed man "Dearie?"
There are numerous Washers. but most
OF them require certain encouragement.
Machinery multiplies mans power, but
1t is also moving too many freight cars in
one load.
If there are as many as two boys in the
family. that household is rarely without
a casualty list.
No man can greatly enjoy q meal when
in doubt as to which fork or spoon tc
send into action next.
BY the time a man acquires the hot
water bottle habit there is almost always
something the matter with him.
While the penitentiaries are somewhat
crowded, a lot OF people who are con-
victed on the outside go free in court.
Don't expect a man who talks a good
deal to keep your secret, and remember
that even a dumb woman may write.
There is considerable overeating in this
fat land, but 1t doesn't occur at a wo-
mans party when the refreshments are
served.
An Atchison man told his. wife. only a
he was going duck hunting. He did go
chicken chasing.
