CALOMEL SALIVATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK.
Acts Like Dynamite on a Slug
Dish Liver and You Lose
a Days Work.

There's no reason why person
should take sickening, salivating
calomel when so cents buys a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a
perfect substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't
make you sick and cannot salivate.
Children and grown folk can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. It's
mercury and attacks your bones.
Take a dose of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don't lose a
days work. Take a spoonful of
Dodson's Liver Tone instead and
you will wake up feeling great. No
more biliousness, constipation, slug
gishness, headache, coated tongue
or sour stomach. Your druggist
says if you don't find Dodson's Liver
Tone acts better than horrible cal.
omel your money is waiting for you.

TAINTED POLITICS
By Peter Radford.

This country is suffering more from tainted politics than from any other malady at the present time There is scarcely a campaign speech made, platform demand written or a mea- sure enacted into law that does not carry the taint of personal gain of some politician or political faction thereof.
 There is more blue sky in cam paign promises of many politicians running for office than was ever con- tained in the prospectuses of the bold est promoters of chimerical business schemes There are more secret com binations formed by politicians in the name of My Country than were ever formed under any and all other aliases There are more political re- bates hidden in the phrase Be it en- acted than were ever concealed un- der any and all other disguises.
 The inordinate thirst for political power and unrestrained passion for mastery has caused more distress in this nation than the greed for gold, and it ought to be regulated by law No business combination ever pursued their competitors as relentlessly or visited more heartless cruelty upon their customers than a political party that seeks to make junk of an in- dustry, or cripple business for party success. through tariff measures, po- litical supervision and ofttimes de- structive legislation. Many political platforms are as alluring to the voter as the story of the rainbow with its pot of gold and their consummation about as far-fetched. Selfgain is the first law in politics. There are many men in office today who, if they could not shake plums off the tree or American liberty or cut melon taken from Uncle Sam's Commissary, would have less desire to serve the public,
 The country is surfeiting with patri- ots, who will bare their breast to bull lets in defense of their country, but there are few men in public fife who will bare their breast to voters or run the gauntlet of party disfavor in de fense of agriculture or industry. No representative of the people, who will permit personal prejudice to dethrone justice, party success to disfranehise reason or the rancor of a political campaign to influence judgment can render capable service.
 The preservation of our prosperity depends upon wisdom, courage and honesty in government, and the Amer ican voter should seek these attri- butes as implicitly as the Wise Men followed the Star of Bethlehem and they will often be found to rest over the stable; the blow or the staff of the Shepherd The surest cure for tainted politics and machine rule is fresh air and sunshine and these i'm portant clements are most abundant upon the farm. and when farmers, bankers and merchants are elected to membership in legislative bodies. much of the trouble in government will dis appear

WATERED SECURITIES
By Peter Radford.

Much has been said and more writ ten about the evils of watered stock in big business concerns and the farm CTS of this nation believe that every dollar written into the life of any business organization, should be able to say Il know that my Redeemer liveth, but farming is the biggest business on earth, and there is more water in it's financial transaction than that of any other industry There is as much water in a farmers note drawing eight or ten per cent interest when other lines of industry secure money for four or five per cent per annum. as there is in business pay ing a reasonable compensation upon the face value of securities repre- senting an investment of only fifty cents on the dollar. The only diff ference is, the water IS Tn the interest rate in one instance and Tn the secur- ities in the other.
 The promoter ofttimes takes chances and his success IS contingent upon the development of the property in- NOlNeu DuI lAc uSuitl, ao iGiC, tuhOo no chances and his success cripples the property involved. There may be industries that cry louder but none that suffer more severely from finan- cial immortality in both law and GUS tom than that of agriculture.
 The farmers of America today are paving $200,000,000 per annum Tn usury on real estate and chattel loans, and this interest capitalized at five per cent, represents S4,000,00O,- 900 of fictitious values which the farm CT is paying interest on. This sum of money is almost equal to the annual value of crops produced in the United States.
 The earning power of the farmers note based upon his interest rate very nearly divides likes the earths sur face-three-fourths water and one fourth land The largest body of wa ter that floats upon the financial hem isphere now rests upon the farms and it's waves are dashing and it's pillows are rolling against seven mil lion homes threatening ruin and dis. aster to the prosperity of the nation. Will our public servants who under stand how to drain the liquid off in duytrial properties turn the faucet and let the water off the farms'
