VALDEZ SCHOOL WATER |S PURE Sample Sent To Washington Bacter- ioIogst for Testing Show That
 Water Is Pure.

Following the grand jury report that the water at the public schools was bad and especially that the wa ter of the reservation school was i'm pure, Dr. B. c. Dalton, city health of ficer, sent to Dr. B. P. Flick, bacter- iologist for the state of Washington, samples of the water from both school houses and today received the following telegram:
 Dr. B. C. Dalton, Valdez:
 The sample of Valdez water I ex- amined is free from bacteria.
 DIR. B. P. TICK,
 Washington State Bacteriologist.
 The information will be gladly re- ceived by the parents of the scholars attending the school and by the peo- pie generally, as it has always been contended that the surface flow of water does not reach the streams of water that flow below the hardpan and clay strata that lie below the surface of the gravel at every few feet The impure water from the surface is carried off on the first strata, while water from the second or third strata is pure.

QUIT TAKING RISKY CALOMEL

Here is vegetable tonic that is
far better for you to take than the
dangerous drug and poison called cal
omel. You never can tell when calo-
mel is going to get you" That's the
worst thing about taking so uncertain
and dangerous drug for constipation
and liver trouble. Calomel is liable
to salivate you or knock you OUT
for at least a day the very next time
you take it.
B. L. Browder has the mild vegeta-
BILE remedy that successfully takes
the place of calomel. This remedy is
Dodson's Liver Tone, a very pleasant
tasting liquid that gives quick but
gentle relief from constipation, torpid
or lazy" liver.
D,dson's Liver Tone is fully guar
anteed, and if ycu buv large bottle
70 fifty cents and it does not entirely
satisfy you, the drug store where you
bough it will promptly give you your
m n v back with a smile,
Dods ms is fine for bob children
and grown people. adv
