UGH! CALOMEL MAKES YOU SICK!

Just Once! Try "Dodsons Liver Tone" When Bous Const

Liven up your sluggish liver! Feel fine and cheerful; make your work a pleasure; be vigorous and full of am- bition. But take no nasty, danger ous calomel, because it makes you sick and you may lose days work.
 Calomel Is mercury or quicksilver. which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel crashes into sour bile like dynamite, breaking 1t up. That's when you feel that awful nausea and cramping.
 Listen to me! If you want to enjoy the incest, gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced just take spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone. Your druggist or dealer sells you 50 cent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone under my personal money

It was the annual reunion of all the members of the Globe Trotters' club. Speeches had been made by everybody who was anybody; this and that prop osition had been seconded by So-and- so, and all the usual business inevi- table at such a gathering had been waded through. Then the chairman rose to his feet, holding in his hand a handsome gold watch.
 Gentleman" he said, impressively, --bby way efj novelty the club will pre- sent this watch to the member who tells us all the most palpable lie."
 Then the contest started. All sorts of yarns were narrated, describing sundry wildly impossible adventures, and then it was the turn of Jigson, a gentleman with mania for angling.
 "Gentlemen," he said, apologetically, T trust that you will allow me to re- frain from entering this peculiar con- test"

1t is Also Reported That an Unprece- dented Number of Small Farmers, Have Made First Payments On
 Small Farms.
Pine Bluff

lut bluu.-
 An unprecedented acreage in oats and other winter crops is the sub stance of reports from all sections of Jefferson county, following the reports that an exceptionally large crop of corn and other food for stock has been raised in the county, and indicating that, despite the acreage on cotton and the high price received for the staple, farmers and planters in Jefferson county intend to continue to practice the Tive at home" pro- gramme.
 There is more live stock in Jeffer- son county now than has been the case for many years, according to all reports, and the farmers generally are putting into practice the advice of the farm demonstration workers, to raise at least few head of hogs and some poultry on every farm. The number of COWS and mules also show an in- crease. Most of the stock owners have grown feed enough to carry their stock over the winter. AS result, the money they have received for their cotton gill not only settle what ever bills they owe, but will leave a balance for improvements, additions, new machinery and other necessities, with some even for luxuries. AS was the case last year, nearly all the farm CTS and their families have grown their own feedstuffs and hundreds of thousands of cans and glasses of gar den products and fruit are in the eel lars and pantries, ready for the non- productive days of winter.
 It Is reported also that an unprece- dented number of small farmers, white and black alike, have made first payments on small farms, thus getting out of the renter and tenant class into the owner class. Mule and horse dealers say prices of these animals continue 10 go upward, with no indication of any early decrease in+the demand. They say also that virtually all sales are be- ing made for cash.
