OKOLONA MISS. MAY 81. 1917

1t was our pleasure while at
the press association to visit the
Exposition grounds at Gulfport
as the guest of the Association,
where we viewed what is being
accomplished towards the big
birthday party. Director Cen
eral Blakeslee md his assistants
were untiring iu their efforts to
inform us of the progress and
scope of the work. 1t is our
opinion that this exposition is
one of the states best invest
ments. If no Exposition were
held the property is more than
worth its cost to the State and
the show will be of incalculable
benefit to those sections of the
State taking advantage of op-
portunities offered.

CalOmel Makes
You Sick, Ugh!
"DOdsOn's Liver Tone" better
than calOmel and can not
salivate.

Calomel loses you a day. You
know what caIomel is. It's mercury:
quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous. Ii
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attaC.s the bones and should never
be put into the system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need dose Of dangerous
calomel just remember that your drug
gist sells for Soc a large bottle Of
Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entire
ly vegetable and pleasant to take and
is a perfect substitute for calomel. 1t
is guaranteed to start your liver with.
out stirring you up inside. and can not
salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you day s
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
ems you right up and you feel great.
Give it to children because it is per-
fec:ly harmless and doesd't grippe. adv

Mrs. Brown has
Gained 20 Pounds
Was Confined to Her Bed and
Chair for Over Two Years, and
Thought She Would Not Live
Long.

You can tell them that it
helped my wife, too; and of all
the people that have made state,
ments about getting benefit from
Tanlac | believe we have the
most cause to be thankful, for
she thought she wouldn't be liv-
ing long and the doctor didn't
give me any encouragement.
This remarkable statement
was made by Mr.. J. L. Brown, a
well-known carpenter Of College
Park, Atlanta. Mr.. Brown ad-
ded very seriously that he felt
unable to express in words his
great appreciation for what Tan
lac had done for his home and
the mother of eight children,
and then went on to say:
For over two years she has
had to live practically on nothing
but milk, being bothered as she
was with a bad stomach trouble
that kept dragging her down un-
til she was hardly more than a
living skeleton. She didn' seem
to get any strengthening rest at
night and simply had no energy
for anything. In fact, she spent
about all her time between her
bed and the chair and didn 't..feel
like taking an interest in any
thing.
"She had a mighty bad break
ing out on her ankles, too, and
all the way up to her knees land
these places would then swell UP
terribly. Her color was bad,
too, and it just looked like Moth
on earth could ever do her any
good or liven her up.
We'll, some strange things
happen in this world, and the
change in her is certainly one of
them, for it was a short time ago
that she was as bad off as she's

Wonderful Stuff!
Lift Out Your Corns
Apply a few drops then lift corns
or calluses off with fingers
no pain

No humbug! Any corn. whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without a
particle of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
a compound of ether discovered by a
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone. which will
cost but trife, but is sufficient to rid
ones feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. Instant.
~ the soreness disappears and short
Iy the corn or caIlus will loosen and
can be lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out
the corn's or calluses but shrivels
them without even irritating the sur
skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. II your druggist don't
have freezone have him order it for
you. adv

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There IL
only one way to cure deafness and that IL
by constitutional remedies Deafness Is
caused by an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when 1t Ii
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,

good as any Fover thew -
With hearty coo fr-- the
allies, Pershing has
use of various forts aid camps and
complete knowledge Of the allied exper-
fence with training men.
AS result he is building up a won
derfUl system Of training which the ex-
perts say viii be the best military school
system Of any.
