Early Showing
of Coats

In advertising Coats this
early in the season, as well as
any other line of merchandise,
it is our aim to impress upon
the public the Importance of
quality. The bargain now
demands an explanation for
its being.
Mere price is no longer a
mere selling argument in it
self. 1t is slowly but surely
being forced into the back
ground by the clear notes of
quality and merit.
When you buy Coat or Suit it is
not the amount that is paid which
counts; il is rather the service you
get from the purchase. 1t is the serv-
ice coupled with the style and quality
that gives you the real pleasure and
makes for any business a lasting Gus
toner.
Our line of Coats which is now
ready for your inspection and selec-
ton, is from lines that are the best
We have taken great pains in select
ing these garments and they repre-
sent the best values from many of
the leading coat manufacturers. We
buy only from such houses that make
for quality coupled with style and
real tailored finish.
While we carry the Wooltex and
printz Biedermsn Goats which are a
make that is recognized by all as the
standard of quality and style. We
are showing many other lines that We
recommend and guarantee equal in
style and quality.
We ask your inspection of this line
of the seasons best models in Coats
and Suits.
We have a few White Coat values
which we have Just received that will
surely be of interest to those who
want a good fall Sport Coat

CAUOMEL TODAY,
 SICK TOMORROW
Dose of Nasty Calomel Makes You Sick and You Lose 8 Days Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury. Calomel acts like dynamite on slug gish liver. When calomel comes into contact with sour bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea.
 If you feel bilious, headachy, con- stipated and all knocked out, just go to your druggist and get 50-cent bot tie of Dodson's Liver Tone, which Is harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you Up better and quicker than nasty calomel and without mak- ing you sick, you just go back and get your money.
 If you take calomel today you'll be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be- sides, it may salivate you. while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up feeling great, full of ambi- ton and ready for work or play It's harmless. pleasant and safe to give to children they like it.
