EVER SALIVATED BY
CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
Calomel Is Quicksilver and Acts
Like Dynamite on Your Liver.

Like Dynamite on Your Liver.
Calomel loses you day! You
know what calomel is. It's mercury;
quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous.
1t crashes into sour bile like dyna-
mite, cramping and sickening you.
Calomel attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need a dose of danger
Gus calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for so cents a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is a perfect substitute for
calomel. 1t is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and cannot salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
ems you right up and you feel great.
Give it to the children because it is
perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe.

MAY OPEN UP AGAIN.
Lett Over Liquor May be Dispens'
ed on Gallon q Month Plan.

Columbia. January 1S:-At con-
ference of the legislators from the
former dispensary counties today, it
was decided to introduce bill per-
mitting to dispensaries having left
over stock on hand to reopen anc
remain open until they dispose of
the stock. The idea is to sell the
whiskey at retail prices in conform
ity with the gallon-a-month-act. In
other words, a person will be able
to buy only gallon a month from
the dispensary. The stock will be
sold only at county seats. The bill
would keep the dispensaries open
until all stock on hand is disposed
of. A committee, consisting of
Senators Sinkler, Spigner and Lide,
was appointed to draw the bill.

Pierre, S. D.-The financial statis-

following showings for the states of
North Dakota, South Dakota, and
Nebraska. The per capita tax. the
amount paid for state government,
in North Dakota, s1.96; South Da-
kota, s1.90; Nebraska, s3.O5, while
the tax rate per thousand in North
Dakota is $3.50: South Dakota, $1.OO
and Nebraska $3.50.
The cost of state government out
side the state institutions is shown
at s330,5S0 for North Dakota;
s254,S49 for South Dakota, and
$342,462 for Nebraska. The total
cost of state government for all pur-
poses in North Dakota, $3,513,415;

This showing indicates that state

it is in the two adjoining states with

all three. Comparisons with older
states show greater discrepancy

ring why the campaign activities
of Newton d. Baker, secretary of war
have so suddenly ceased.
The question is being asked wheth-
CT the Democratic national commit
tee might not have taken steps to
keep Baker safely out of harms way
for the rest of the campaign. Here
tofore Mr.. Baker has been a busy lit
tie campaigner telling how the presi-
dent has kept the country out of war
But since last Thursday night
when Mr.. Baker gave out his famous
statement charging that "enemies OF

raid on some point on the border tc
irtiuence the election, he has not beer
so active.
The secretary announced Monday
that he will speak at Cleveland OF
